Hot Tools PINKTITANIUM Salon Titanium Curling Iron 1 Inch

 (42 customer reviews)

I absolutely LOVE this curling iron. It's not only a "hot" looking item in your home, but it does keep your curl intact if you want curl, body, or just a cute flip up for your shag cut. I have very fine hair and this is the ONLY iron I've ever used besides the model below it that I used of a friend's that has kept any of my body or curls together in the awful hot, humid Illinois summer time. I'll never go back to some junk Conair like I used to use from Walgreens. This is the best iron I've ever used. The pulsing heat is awesome when you think it's going to get cool if you have a slightly damp piece of hair and won't fry it as it dries the small section of hair I didn't get totally dry. I give it five stars all the way around and Lock & Mane shipped IMMEDIATELY. I had my item in about four days from purchase! AWESOME ITEM!!!

Gets hot fast, stays hot. Good weight and balance. I really like the variable heat control, and that it's separate from the power button.

The power button is in an unfortunate location, however, and I've twice accidentally turned it off without noticing until I'm several curls in and it doesn't seem to be curling anymore. This is a design flaw - the on/off switch is in a bad place, right near where you tend to move your thumb a lot while curling, and while it clicks "on" with an subtle sound and tactile "click," the switch toggles "off" like a ninja, happily stealthing into the "off" position at the slightest whisper of perceived intent. I'd even read in other reviews where others would accidentally touch the off button during use, so I thought I was prepared. The design and location of the on/off switch makes the iron feel shy and a bit too introverted, so you'll want to get in the habit of glancing at that button after every curl or two.

Otherwise, the iron...Read more

I've been using Hot Tools curling irons for years (all barrel sizes). In my opinion they are by far still the best. I have thick unruly hair and hot tools works amazingly. I will certainly purchase again.
