I find this curling iron super !!! I am total beginner, had previously neither curling nor straighteners to curl, and yet the first attempt already looked really good !!! My hair is very particular in terms curls, even if I will make it from a professional for any occasion are the curls out, even before I could pay, but with this curling iron I have for the first time for 2 days curls that even from hour look to hour beautiful: D So I recommend it to everyone who is sometimes bored with her long, straight hair.
For me, incidentally, also the glove was there, so I think mid-2011 is always there .. The shipping and packaging were as always quickly and well packed at Amazon! Am completely satisfied !!! : D
