I received this curling iron very quickly, however, the first time I've used it many damaged my spikes and especially left an awful smell on my hair to be from 5 washes. Since I do not like too the types of loops that it was (very tight loops, limit English) I unscrewed the clip on the cylinder, in order to make more wavy and natural curls, since I am very natural curls beautiful, the smell is gone after about 3 months of use.
I recommend it for girls who like tight loops, if you favorite rippling oriented instead on a looper without clip.
