I was given a Cloud 9 original iron as a present for my 18th birthday, im now 21. This hair straightener is one of the best beauty investments you can make. This product is sturdy and can handle being dropped a few times, these plates have never cracked.
I found the changeable temperature really useful over time as I've previously chemically treated my hair and needed to lower the heat. This iron still heats up really quickly, even after three years.
These irons have been able to straighten my long, thick hair with ease with causing minimum damage to my hair.
This product has been well worth its price tag as I still use it everyday and it still works as well as it did on day one.
If you have coloured hair bleached hair or fine hair this is the straightener for you. (Also suitable for thick course hair) This straightener has a heat adjuster which is a must if your hair is coloured or fine. Try it on different heat settings as the lowest heat the better it is for your hair, Glides easily through the hair without dragging which is especially important when creating curls. As a professional hairdressing tutor and ex salon owner I wouldn't use anything else
Tips: Dont automatically use it on the highest setting. 180 is perfectly suitable for fine or coloured hair. Always use a heat protecting product prior to use if you want your hair to stay shiny and manageable.
