InStyler Rotating Hot Iron Hair Styler

okay so i brought this because i heard i could curl my hair easily with it, swell as straighten.. so i first straightened my hair and i love it for straightening my hair!! however I've tried to curl my hair a few times with it and it doesn't curl !! i even got my friend who's amazing with hair styles to try it and well the instyler just isn't one to curl my type of hair in. it just kinda made a burning smell.. but its brilliant to straighten any sorts of hair!!

So I ended up with 2 of these as I bought them through the infomercial. Glad I did, it became my go to when I needed to wash and straighten out my frizzy hair without going to the salon. The only down side of the product is after a few times it did not clamp tight enough, seemed to wear really quickly and eventually the brushes on either side came off. Glad I had the second one!

I'm reasonably happy with it, I bought it for half price and feel like it was worth what I paid for it but not for full price. I've had a friend do my hair with it and it turned out amazing, but when I've tried to curl my own hair it hasn't worked out so well. But that's likely my lack of skill, not the tool itself! Straightening is easy to do though and works really well. Overall, I'm happy with it.

I have this , I have it for almost 2 years now.

Annnnd I actually prefer it over my hair straighteners..

I don't like pin straight hair on me and I love the polish and bounce I get from the Instyler.

I also find any (ghd, remmington etc) make my hair look more damaged..

With a good heat protectant it's fine, no burning and my hair is smooth and polished looking.

after purchase i would use it on everyone elses hair as they had finer hair than mine, it definately worked for, also doing the curls worked, tried it on my own hair did pretty good considering i have long thick hair, and it doesn't leave that burnt smell like most straightners do.

i've got thick long wavy hair and it works really well for me, its great how it can be used at both a hair curler and a hair straightener, it gives my hair great volume and texture, i think the heat setting is fabulous, just be wary about burning yourself while trying to curl your hair as the instyler can sometimes be difficult to use although its a great product i'd rather stick with my ghd.

I have really thick, unruly curly hair so I was pleasantly surprised at how well this straightened my hair. It never managed to make it dead straight or smooth - but the brush that is attached makes straightening a whole lot easier and quicker. Unfortunately after a few months of use the plate of the straightener starting chipping and it would make a loud buzzing sound when turn on, after replacing it for another Instyler the same problem occurred again. I would recommend this product for younger people who want to try out straightening their hair - for $129 it is a reasonable price to pay as there was quite a few specials for buy one get one free when they were first released. I have also heard that they have gone in to clearance for $70 at Farmers stores now.

I got mine as a gift about 2 years ago from my mum as my mother loves to use me as a Guinea pig, anyways she payed $99 and she got me the 32mm barrel. It's not a bad product. To be honest for a device that can do everything that's pretty darn good. Anyways the life of that I styler didn't last that long as it was stolen but my mum brought me another one about a year after and it was the 19mm barrel in purple. That one was really good I liked it. Overall the instyler is a good product I liked it. It's probably the best as seen on tv ad that has turned out to be right.

I was given this as a 21st present 3 years ago and I still use it.

I find that it's not as harsh on my hair, especially with a heat protectant, even when I'm using it often, although I also find that there are things it struggles to do that a traditional straightener can do easily like getting in to the roots and precise curls. Although the add shows it creating curls, it's quite difficult to do because the barrel is always moving so you can't hold the hair in place long enough for the curl to form, and because it doesn't get as hot at other stylers, I finds curls don't hold very long.

This product is great for people who have thick hair like me because since the brush gets at knows and also evenly distributes the hair over the barrel, you can do larger sections of hair at a time, shortening straitening time.

While there are a couple of kinks to straighten out, I am still very happy with mine and will continue to use it.

I don't straighten my hair often, but when hubby and I went out for dinner on my birthday I decided it called for pretty hair. I had washed my hair the night before and left it to dry during the day. I used a heat protectant spray and then dove in, so to speak. It is pretty simple to use, push the power button until the light bar is at the level you want it on (I used the lowest setting since my hair is quite fine). Then I just started sectioning my hair and running the instyler through my hair, which lovely results. My hair was straight and smooth, exactly what I was hoping for.

My daughter wanted her hair done as well, so I was playing around with it and tried to use the curling feature - no matter what I did I couldn't get it to curl her hair. So I don't know if there's something I didn't understand, but it didn't work for me. I wouldn't really be using it for curling so I'm happy with this product.
