CURL SECRET CERAMIC AUTO CURLER

This curler is so quick and easy to use. It is great when I'm in a rush and need to head out the door cos I can get beautiful curls very fast! If you need convenience, this is a great addition! I love the way my hair looks afterwards, it looks professional, not like I did it myself. I find VS Sassoon a reputable and trustworthy brand.

The VS Sassoon Curl Secret is a secret that should be kept no more. This auto curler is a game changer when it comes to curling technology. You are able to choose from 5 different heat settings for all different hair types and 3 different curl designs. I have a medium thickness hair so went for 180 degrees which was perfect.

I first tried the wavy design which gave a nice natural look, I made a small mistake here of trying to put too much hair in the barrel and I was quite concerned my hair was going to wind up stuck in the barrel of the curler but as the curler started to take my hair it automatically beeped at me and I was able to easily remove the hair tangle free (thank gosh). Take 2 with a smaller amount of hair provided the perfect natural curl. A great feature that the VS Sassoon has built in is it allows you to pick the direction of the curl - R for the Right side of your head and L for the Left or you can chose to mix it up, for the natural curl I used the alternating feature and found this gave me the desired look.

Next, I trialled the loose curl, I found this to be more of a classic styled curl which would be nice for going out to dinner or for a special occasion. I recommend letting your hair cool and then running a wide tooth comb through your curls for a nice finish.

Finally I tried the defined curl setting where this definitely provided a much tighter curl, still lovely but I prefer a more natural curl personally so probably wouldn't use this feature as often. If you love the ultra-defined look I can recommend this setting for you.

Prior to trialling this gem I used a GHD to curl my hair and I won't be going back. The VS Sassoon Curl Secret is definitely my new best friend and I would definitely recommend this product to others!

Its an amazingly easy device to use and does a real professional job. It heats up quickly with no fear of any burns as the heat inside the barrel. It gives beautiful curls that last not only all day, but overnight too. I experimented with all the 3 types of curls, tight, loose as well as wavy and found the wavy and the loose curls look the best on me. I found it a bit difficult to curl the hair at the back and needed my daughter’s help, but the end result was wonderful. I absolutely love this gadget and recommend to everyone for a lovely professional look.

As someone who values both efficiency and ease of use, the Curl Secret Ceramic Auto Curler has been a game-changer in my hair styling routine. This innovative tool is not only perfect for beginners delving into the world of curls but also caters to individuals with disabilities or limited dexterity.

One of the standout features of the Curl Secret is its adjustable temperature settings, allowing for personalized styling tailored to different hair types and preferences. As someone with thinner hair, I found it particularly accommodating so I didn't have to overheat my hair.

What truly impressed me was the versatility of the Curl Secret. Not only could I effortlessly switch between curling directions, but the inclusion of lights on the barrel provided clear visibility, ensuring precise styling every time. Furthermore, the speed at which it curled my hair was simply mind-blowing. I couldn't believe how quickly I was able to curl my whole head.

However, it's worth noting that the Curl Secret does have its limitations. I found it challenging to curl closer to the roots, especially on the top layer of my hair. While this might be a drawback for those seeking intricate styling, it's a minor inconvenience compared to the overall efficiency and ease of use the Curl Secret offers.

Thank you, Beauty Review, for the most AMAZING opportunity to trial VS Sassoon Secret Auto Curler.

WOW.

I would not have believed it, if I hadn’t tried it. Easy, flawless curls! Actual curls!! I myself, have never been able to curl my hair and I cannot tell you how effortless this magical curler is.

Begin with clean, tangle free hair. I practiced curling my hair in various sections and while up in a high ponytail. Simply turn the curlers on, choose a heat setting (5 choices), choose the type of curl, choose the direction for your curls and away you go. The curl options are wavy, loose and defined. The curl directions are left, right or alternating.

I have long, thick hair and chose the heat setting 210c. I tried all choices of curls and directions. And I am starting to have my favourites. The curlers have a safety automatic shut off and also a memory function resuming your last curling session. Very clever.

To use, place small sections of hair (you will determine how much) into the plastic slot of the clear chamber that covers the ceramic barrel and press start. The curlers gently twist your hair around the ceramic barrel and after 3-5 sec the curler beeps for you to release. You simply slide the curler downwards to release your hair. You are left with beautiful, bouncy curls that have a lot of body and plenty of waves.

It is as easy as - hair goes in and a curl comes out. Once hair cools, I comb my curls out with a wide tooth comb. My curls last until I wash my hair.

The ceramic barrel is protected with a clear chamber, so there is no risk of burns. And you can see all the action while in progress. The boxed packaging comes with helpful pointers on the outside of the box and instructions on the inside. I found watching clips on You Tube and Instagram very helpful as well.

I am blown away that I can transform my own hair in minutes!

Ok this auto curler is next level! I’ve never used an automatic curler before only manual curling tongs and I always give up , I have a lot of hair . Plus having carpal tunnel it’s too much work .

The tool itself is so easy to hold , heats up super fast . You don’t burn yourself the actual tool itself isn’t hot , instructions are fool proof and results are so easy to achieve. It’s like a steam curl , curl secret ceramic auto curler is amazing!

Literally brush your dry hair , add heat protection, comb out again . Section your hair . Now less is more if you have hair longer than your shoulders otherwise it will tangle up and will feel like it’s ripping hair out of your head . But you can easily untangle once it’s cooled a little bit .

There’s definitely a trick to getting curls closer to your head , go slow , don’t rush to slot your hair into the guide. The curls also actually last so long! My daughter has rib length, naturally straight hair . Lasted three days!!! That’s a world record for her! I’m so happy I was able to take part in this trial , it’s absolutely changed my mind on adding bouncy curls to my hair .

This device is now my new fave curler

With 3 different curl settings 5 different heat levels And the ability to change the direction of the curl with the push of a button. It makes curling your hair so easy. I curled my whole head in just 10 minutes! That's right TEN MINUTES!

It did take me a few tries to get the hang of how it works best for me. But once you have the hang of it is the best.

Also if your hair gets jammed it auto rotates back bit making you hair not get fully jammed. The plastic outer piece comes off to whichever makes it easy to clean.

Only thing I would say is I'd like a curler with a fatter barrels for wider curls maybe this could be the next invention.

So stoked to have been chosen for this review team! 😊 I received the curler in its box, packaged well. I liked the colours of the box and the pictures on the box make it obvious what it is and what it can do. The unit itself is a good size and feels good in my hand. The colours of the unit are nice, grey and gold making it look quite expensive. My hair is shoulder length but not all the same length and curling with my straightener was damaging my hair. I like that the barrel is see through so you can see your hair when it’s in there, this is important for me. I love the buttons to select the curl, heat, and temperature – they are a good size and easy to press. It heats up quickly, which is super important for me and I’m sure lots of people. I selected the heat temperature of 165 degrees as my hair is quite fine. I then selected the curl type, I chose the wavy as I didn’t really want a tight curl, just a wave. I use the left curl to do the left side of my head and the right for the right side – then I used alternating for the back. I found it easy to follow the instructions and to set the curler to how you wanted it, just a few pushes of the buttons and I was away! Loved how it has an auto curling system with tangle-free technology – I got my hair stuck in an older style heated curler which sucked, so really glad this one has the tangle free mechanism! The ceramic coated barrel is fantastic as it doesn’t damage my hair (it’s bleached and can be a bit dry), so doesn’t come out all frizzy and yuck looking! Price point it’s a little on the higher side for me budget wise, but I’d probably find somewhere with Afterpay so I could buy it as I really like it a lot! I will use this once a week to curl my whole head and I use it on other days to do just one side of my fringe when I wear my hair up, so is going to get used a lot! Thanks again BR and VS Sassoon 😊

There are only two things that I would say I struggle with when it comes to beauty. One is nails (which thanks to nail wraps I’ve sorted) the other is curling my hair into nice loose curls.

So naturally an auto curler was something I was immensely keen to try.

In the box you get the curler (including cord with plug) and instructions. The instructions give you a written guide and a QR code to watch a video tutorial on their website.

The curler is encased in plastic and is marked telling you which side of the curler you need to have closest to your head. This is important and if you slot your hair though from the other side the curler won’t get the right angle and thus won’t work.

However the slot isn’t large and I do wonder how easy this product would be with thicker hair. But on the plus side it does seem to keep my hair sections more consistent.

The curler also has settings for 3 different curl intensities, curl direction and heat settings for hair thickness.

The quick start guide also provides recommendations on which settings are best for each curl type.

Upon using the curler, Divide the hair into sections and feed small pieces into the curler. Hold the hair taunt and then drag down diagonally when inserting into the curler. Press start and the hair will be pulled into the curler. The curler will then whirl for a few seconds. For best results hair should then be held in place for a few more seconds, then gently released when the curler beeps.

A few things to note: often there are strands you think are in line to be curler that don’t get pulled in. Pulling the hair down diagonally seems to assist with this. If you don’t guide the hair well enough it can also get tangled and stop the curler. So far I have found that hair is then released easily. For some reason I also found the right side much easier to do than the left.

While inserting the hair into the Curl Secret seems trickier than a curling iron, I think the curls from this are far better than what I personally manage to get with a curling iron or curling with a straightener (and less ringlet-like).

The only time before using the curler that I have liked how my hair looked curled was when it was done professionally. This device however gives me hope that I might be able to finally curl my hair in a way I like.

The other thing I liked about the Curl Secret was with the plastic casing, the risk of accidentally burning myself was significantly reduced.

I haven’t yet had the curler on long enough to see if it automatically turns itself off, but that is also a feature that I know I’ll be grateful for when I leave the house and suddenly can’t remember turning the curler off.

Thanks Beauty Review for sending me this product to trial. It was a winner.

I have very straight, fine, thin hair, so I've been obsessively using curling tools since I was a teenager. My current curler of choice has been a VS straighter with curved plate edges, but I am very happy to say this automatic curler has blown it into the dust.

It took me a little while to get my head around how to use, but once I got the hang of it it was surprisingly quick to do my entire head. I also tend to get a bit impatient, but having the tool tell you exactly how long to leave the curl heating for is amazing for those of us who perhaps do some sections longer than others! I also found the direction change options really useful as I like to have my curls going away from my face on each side. I think my favourite part would have to be how difficult it is to burn yourself with though, as the heated barrel is on the inside. It also means you can put it down on a counter after it's done and not need to worry about burning the house down.

The only thing I thought it didn't do very well is smaller pieces of hair, like curtain bangs, so I will keep my straightener on rotation for bits that are smaller or need a bit more precision, but overall this has quickly become a valued tool in my arsenal.
