Recently bought Grundig curling iron. Criteria were: good reviews, cable should rotate, unit should also work in USA. All that was available. The curling iron looks great as well. Only I have a lot of long hair. Somehow the curls are not right curly but rather wavy. The shorter strands not lure (about 20 cm). But why is that, I can not say. Perhaps each hair type needs a different curling iron. My old curling iron has beautiful, almost made angel curls. Only he is so old that it is not really warm and therefore consumes a lot of electricity. I will convert the new device. Must I only consider what alternative comes into question.
