InStyler Rotating Hot Iron Hair Styler

If your going to invest this much money on a product that is disappointing you might as well keep saving and by a cloud 9 or Ghd. Hair was still frizzy took ages and was noisy. A good straightener can achieve pretty much any look

My aunty bought this for herself and it came with another spare one for free. Watching the ad, it seemed easy to use,but when I tried it out I found that it didn't straighten the roots of my hair as I would like it to be. It left a burn mark on the side of my ears and I wasn't aware of it. The noise that it made was loud for me and quite annoying.

I would not recommend this.

I have frizzy long hair and I find this does a great job at straightening and making it nice and smooth! I've had mine for a few years now and the brush part is a bit squished looking and it's looking a bit worse for wear so is definately time for an upgrade, will probably purchase another one as I get great results with it and is so quick and easy to do once you get the hang of it. I see a lot of mixed reviews but I guess everyones hair is different so better to try it for yourself.

I was lucky enough to be given my Instyler second hand a few years back to help with using less heat on my (at the time) severely damaged hair.

I have thick-ish / frizzy / wavy / dry / blonde hair down to my bra strap (my profile pic only shows the layered hair at the front the rest is behind my head.) I find this works really well for my hair type at smoothing the frizz and styling perfectly. It did nothing for my mother-in-law who has short fine hair, so I think this really depends on your hair type how well the Instyler works for you.

I only ever use the Instyler to curl my hair, not to straighten it (I use GHD for that), I just love the results I get with minimal effort - which is pretty much the same amount of time it would take me to straighten it. The curls are loose and glamourous, fall nicely and don't 'drop' out during the day and/or night.

The Instyler has 3 heat settings which I find handy. This is displayed by 3 little lights and once they stop flashing (maybe 1 or 2 minutes) you are good to 'roll'.

Its easy to hold and twist as Im curling and you can get right to the back of your hair. It is a little on the noisy side but that personally doesn't bother me. The comb part has lasted really well and the roller looks just like new even though I've thrashed it over the last 4+ years, more so in the last year. I've dropped it numerous times off the bathroom vanity and its never broken...which astounds me cause its taken some hard knocks. So if it was to conk out on me tomorrow I would feel its had a very good innings! If I was to say one bad thing about it, it would be that sometimes it can be a little difficult to stand up while waiting for it to warm up but the swivel cord helps to move to balance it.

It did take me awhile to get the hang of using it, so like anything practice is key, now I couldn't see myself without one. If this one ever stops working I really hope I can get my hands on another one. Maybe I should keep an eye out to keep a back up... hehe

I wish I made my hair soft and amazing like in the adds but nope! I wish I had bought a ghd.. This one isn't great, dsnt donit any better than an ordernerry brand. Oh and it is loud!

I saw the adverts and bought one of these from Farmers, I can't remember how much as I used vouchers to get this. It's only the third heating iron tool I've ever used on my hair and it's a lot better than a crimper and a clothes iron. It comes with a tutorial and a heat guard for amateur heat stylists like myself and I found both very useful and I was always worried that I would burn myself, which I did after taking off the heat guard. The heat guard stays on now. After many practises with this I do love it, very much. It's great for creating curls and for straightening hair as well but one needs to be mindful that this is a barrel shaped heating iron and so there needs to be a bit of practise to be done with straightening the hair on the top of your head. If you're too impatient like I have been sometimes, then you could end up with bumps at the top of your head. The curling power of this tool is really great, I am very impressed with how beautiful my hair looks after using this.

I have super thick, curly hair and the Instyler did absolutely nothing except make my hair a huge, frizzy mess. I tried it several times, blowdrying and brushing my hair out first, not brushing my hair out, adding product, not adding product etc. but it all ended the same way - a head full of knots and frizz. I'm not sure how this would work on other hair types, but it's not something I would recommend.

I did like the instyler but I didn't find it amazing. It's a good tool to use if you like straightening irons. What I found annoying about it was that one side of my hair was very simple to do and my hair looked great but when I had to do the other side it was a little complcated as the barrel only moved in one direction which ment I had to hold the tool in a awkward way to do my hair. It did notice that my hair was shiny and silky after using it again. So apart from that small complication I would still be it again.

I have always struggled with curling my hair I'm just no good at it! InStyler made it easy, I had two a pink smaller barrel and a purple bigger one. Smaller def was the best on my hair it created beautiful curls that I had never been able to do with any other curler and they held for hours!! Ended up selling it as I didn't use it often and now I wish I hadn't lol. Downside for me is the noise it's so irritating
