Remington S9600 straightener Silk double layer ceramic coating (Personal Care)

Customer Review

The Remington straighteners it had with me not easy, because for years I used to home a GHD straighteners and am very happy with this (before that I had some favorable straighteners - either short-lived or not satisfactory results). Here is my experience with the flat iron (+ positive, +/- neutral - negative):

+ Smoothness and styling result: Total stylt and smoothes the Remington S9600 Silk straighteners pretty good. I have about 2x to go with the flat iron over the corresponding strand to get the desired result. In my GHD straighteners I have felt a little less often edit the places (usually it is enough if I go over it again). But for the two straighteners have indeed a price difference, although even the Remington device is already in the upscale class.

+ Transport lock: The straightener can be locked so that it does not openly lying around in a drawer but nice "cleaned up" is. This had yet none of my straighteners and I find this feature really really great!

+ Curl Result: The straighteners advertises itself well to make curls. That's with a flat iron not so difficult if you have to get out the rotation. (However, it is not really feasible at the back for me, when I'm alone).

+ Storage bag: I like also that the hair straightener comes with a storage bag. So the device is stowed while traveling always in place and tidy - naturally the pouch is not only for travel but also for the home (I even used it but only when traveling).

+/- Turbo Boost function: The turbo boost function when the device is heated for 30 seconds at 240 degrees, I think is pretty moronic. This feature should be particularly unruly hair. How to GHD-smoothers but sees it's also very good unruly hair with lower temperature to smooth - so do not need this extra burden actually really.

+/- Selbsteinzustellende Temperature: Some will like it might - I am now so used by my other straighteners that I only have it plug in and off you go. I never had the feeling that I did something at the temperature would want rumregeln the GHD flat iron. It was perfect in all situations styling. When Remington straighteners I feel a little confused. But at least it has a memory function that the last set temperature remembers, so you have to adjust them each time.

+/- Automatic shutdown after one hour .: The Remington S9600 Silk smoother turns off after an hour automatically. That is in itself positive. Overall, it still leaves me with a bad feeling when the unit as long as the right to "hinbrutzelt". The GHD model already switched off after 30 min. From and leaves me with a much better feeling. Apart from that, I find this term in the "idle" as adequate.

+/- Manual: The manual with such a styling product would have but significantly more detail and make visually appealing can. Too bad that the manufacturer put less and less value on something. The main points are indeed addressed here - styling tips you are looking in vain. (And that might yet be expected, I think).

CONCLUSION: Those looking for a decent straightener, can easily access here. Those who want more and are willing to invest a little more, can not find something better.
