Have long sought and the ratings I - also much more expensive straightener - viewed. After comparing these reviews I decided for this low-cost device, since it has been criticized even in the expensive stuff. Lo and behold, this straightener is really great: He is heated rapidly and you really need each strand only once to smooth, and at naturkrausem hair. No trace of tangles and hair pulling. Hair shine and are nice and smooth. And they remain so, even in wet weather. I am completely satisfied.
