Spa-ces: Hot! Hot! HOT!

Hello lovelies,

so I just purchased a new hair styling tool. It is the deep waver iron by "Hot Tools". I just got it in the mail the other day! It only took 1 week to get to me, and it came from the states. Usually when I order something from the states it takes at least 2 weeks to get here, in Canada. I gotta say, when I cracked open the box. I fell in L-O-V-E with just the packaging! LOL And the best part is (for me anyway), its PURPLE!! Not totally purple, but it has purple in the design! That's probably why I fell in love instantly. Ha Although, in the packaging photos, it looks more blueish...but I assure you, it is purple!

Hot Tools Deep Waver Iron review:

Pros:

*Perfect in PURPLE!
*Heats up to 430f
*Heats up fast
*Light weight
*Ceramic and tourmaline technology
*Swivel cord
*Lock switch, good for storing in a drawer
*Long and soft power cord
*Hanging hook for storing
*Long lasting hold

I really like this tool, because it offers a lot of different things. Unlike some hair tools you can buy at local drug stores. The "Hot Tools" deep waver hair styling tool offers different temperature heat settings, it can go up to 430f, it heats us pretty fast, so be careful! It has a lock option, meaning less stress on those delicate wrist lady loves. ;) A swivel cord, with a soft and flexible cord. Not like other stylers, where the cord is very stiff and not easily bendable. It is also made with ceramic and tourmaline technology, which nowadays every good hair styling tool should have. And it also kept the wave in my hair for 2 days! Because my hair is very heavy and coarse, usually if I curl or style it in any way. It will fall flat with in 4-5 hours or so. I didn't even use hairspray or anything and it still held strong! If I didn't wash my hair after the second day. My wave probably would have stayed in longer! That, for my hair is awesome wild!!! It's also pretty light in weight, which is great! Cause we all know, when styling your hair on your own with no help, your arms can get pretty tired holding the hair tool. So, when it is light in weight, it makes it less painful. ;) Yes, beauty is pain, but it doesn't always have to be. ;) lol

Keep in mind, even though it can go up to 430f in heat, you don't have to use it at its maximum temp. I used it at the lowest temperature heat setting, which was 280f and my hair still waved beautifully. I held it for about 10sec, each press/crimp and I got the results that I did. And it is easier on your hair, if you don't use the highest heat setting. Always test out the different heat temperature on your hair, starting from the lowest to highest. And if it curls, straightens, waves on a lower setting, then great, that's hot enough. If you don't need to use it at full heat, why bother? People always think, the hotter the better. Yes in some cases, but if your hair curls at a lower heat, use that setting. It's like having a vehicle, just cause it can drive the speed of 100MPH/160KPH. Doesn't mean you should drive your vehicle at the max speed, right!? ;)

Cons (Short list, always a good sign!) :

*No indication light
*Doesn't open very wide

No indication light, to show it has reached the set temperature. You just have to guess. I would say it takes between 30sec-60sec. It also doesn't open up wide. So your hair doesn't slide in between the iron barrels very nicely. It would sometimes split up my sectioned hair, when placing it in between the iron. So just watch for that. I'm sure after awhile of using it though, you'll get the hang of it. Not a deal breaker for me anyway. But, I thought some people might want to know. Overall thoughts, honestly...besides those couple things. Its great! In the end pros burnout the cons. How could you NOT consider buying this tool!
