To start with, it is the most small and handy hair straightener I have come across till date, very convenient for packing along. I love the black and pink color. The plates are not too wide, so you can only cover a smaller portion of hair part by part.
I love the fact that it heats up instantly, no waiting here at all! It heats up to 210°C and there is no heat setting here,you just plug it in and start using it. The cord is long enough and the swivel head helps you work around your hair without hassles.
The ceramic plates are safe for your hair and give a smoother result. I have almost straight hair but with wavy ends, I usually need to straighten the lower half for smooth,straight looking hair.
Now this is quite small and handy and best used for daily use, when you just want to straighten your bangs or the ends like how I use it. If you have long or curly hair and want a completely straight look,this is not the product for you as that needs wider plates and more heat.
Ignore my half makeup face, as I jump from hair to makeup to outfit when in a hurry :p
Coming to the price, it is very economical and a straightener at 1000 bucks is a boon for college goers. Also,this product is perfect for them as it can be easily carried along in their bags when they directly go partying from college 😀 Philips’ products come with a 2 year warranty, that again is a plus.
This is the ‘After Straightening’ result on me..I have used it on my lower half of the hair.
As you can see, hair is not poker straight but a lot straighter and less frizzy. I prefer the natural look it gives.
Overall I would say it is a must buy if you are in college and looking for something on a budget or need a straightener to carry with along during travels.
Have you tried the new Philips Selfie Straightener?
