VS Sassoon Curl Secret Optimum Review

If you’re like me then you have STRAIGHT straight hair. I’m not talking just hair that is straight.. I mean hair that, no matter what you do to it, or what you put in it, it just won’t stay curly/wavy. I’m talking about spending hours in front of the mirror getting cramped arms trying to add a bit of volume to your unswerving, undeviating, linear, straight as an arrow locks only to have a wee gust of wind, a mere breeze, undo all your labours. Then I spent some of my beauty points to buy this from the vault and OH MY GOSH. IT’S A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE! Not only is it incredibly easy to use (the package comes with instructions and links to tutorials), but it’s got 3 different curl settings and you can adjust the heat, time, and curl direction to really get any style you want. It just sucks in your hair and let’s a magnificent curl loose. It explains this all very well in the instructions but the ionic neutraliser or whatever prevents frizz and static, which apparently is what causes our curls to come undone. The result? Let me just say it took me all of 15 minutes to curl my entire head (I’ve got medium long hair) and the curls lasted for 3 days....! The only thing that made them come undone was eventually washing my hair! It’s amazing. To summarise: easy, fast, with SUPER long-lasting results. The only thing I’d say is a concern is if you add too much hair or there’s a tangle, your hair can become stuck in the machine. There’s instructions for this as well, and the machine actually stops itself so as not to burn your hair, and I’ve always managed to get it all out and try again. It even works on naturally curly/frizzy hair! My friend’s mom had a go and her hair is incredibly poofy/frizzy, with natural waves. The result was stunning too. Definitely recommend this product. It only cost me 2,500 points ($250). Best buy in a long time.

So when I saw this, I couldn't wait to use it!

So I straightened my curly hair and then curled it nicely using this!

Wow... just makes life so much easier! I really recommend this for easy hair curling.

It has two options for smaller curls or big curls! I loved using both, bigger curls you finish quicker but it sucks up your hair strand and curls it then when it's ready to release your curl it beeps to take it out!

It's a little scary at first using this because it sucks in your hair so you slightly panic it may eat your hair! haha but no it doesn't do that, if the hair strand is too much or too big it tries sucking it up but if it couldn't provide that perfect curl it beeps at you to try again basically haha.

So it's actually really awesome and so easy to use! I did give it a 4/5 just because your wrists will start to kill you after a while because it's really heavy! But I also have to straighten my super curly thick dry hair before doing this, so I start dying by the end of it.

I do find this far easier to use than a wand and faster without burning my hands, my only issue was you can only use a small amount of hair each time and have to comb each bit before you put it in as I’ve been in a rush using this and then not combed it first and my hairs gotten knotted and stuck in it! So scary! Lol burinh your hair! But other than that, if used properly and carefully it’s great! I love mine and that it has different settings for heat and curl types!
