Tuve un problema porque recib una que no cargaba correctamente pero el vendedor hizo el cambio en cuanto se lo dije. La segunda funciona perfectamente. Me gusta mucho, yo que no la quiero para todo el pelo me parece muy prctica
As someone with thick,wavy and hard to manage hair, these are not the most amazing straighteners but they are really a life saver if you are somewhere with no plugs like I was today at the water park. They heat up decently fast and with my thick hair they managed to do a full head and just go over it one more time before the battery died. The battery is not great but just enough for sorting your hair if your out. They won’t replace my corded straighteners but I’m keeping them for whenever I’m travelling as an extra pair.
Ich hab dieses schon etwas hochpreisige Gltteeisen, mit viel Vorfreude, ausgepackt aber der Ton ist einfach nur schrecklich!
Ich besitze 3 Gltteeisen uns keines davon macht so einen schlimmen Ton!
Eventuell ist das ein Grund um es zurck zu schicken…
Ansonsten war es schnell hei und sieht hochwertig aus.
I don’t usually write reviews but I am so delighted with what I’ve received I’ve decided to.
I was really pleased with the way it arrived, well packaged and beautifully presented. Would make an ideal gift. Comes with silicone sleeve, heat mat, pretty storage case (which fits the Straighteners and heat mat) UK and European plug, and magnetic connection charger.
(Please see my before and after use hair pictures)
Left for full charge ahead of use. My hair is naturally thick and wavy. My usual Straighteners are GHD. I found these Babyliss slightly heavier to use however I would expect this an internal power source. They straightened my hair as well as my GHD when on the higher setting. First use was 7 mins and power light down to yellow (from green) so this indicates 50-85% power remaining. I am yet to see how many uses I get from a full charge but I would estimate at least two full uses.
This is perfect for what I want it for, for touching up when out and about (as my hair easily frizzes) and for use in my Campervan when we have no electric hook-up.
Overall I would recommend this product as it is excellent value compared to its higher priced competitors which are circa 200-300!
Another safety point I liked, was I noticed it won’t switch on when closed with its silicone cover on. So this means it can not be accidentally switched on. It also has a sleep mode (lower heat) if unused for 5 mins ahead of fully shut down if not used for a further 5 mins – ideal if you’re like me and sometimes forget to switch them off!
I really wasn’t expecting the amount of quality and care in every detail of this product. I feel like I have just received an amazing present with the design of the product right through to the case and luxurious packaging you are sure to want to keep!!!
Superb product. Extremely handy of course because its cordless. I have mostly used the lowest heat setting because i never do my hair pin drop straight. My hair is quite wavy and extremely out of control. At lowest heat setting with 2 max 3 passes it gives me a natural straight look. I have medium long hair and not too thick. It takes me around 20 mins to complete. In one charge i manage to straighten at least twice, which is really good. Love the box and carry pouch. Lightweight also (compared to dyson corrale..although in every other aspect besides price dyson would be clearly better ). Would 100% recommend @ 70 which was sale price. Still don’t think its worth 200 i.e. the original price.
I was unsure about purchasing these straighteners but am so happy I did, the quality is excellent, beautiful presented with accessories included. Bought when reduced significantly and very happy with the performance versus my 12 year old GHDs. I have frizz prone, wavy, coloured hair and they have made a difference to texture and condition. I use them on the lowest setting after blow drying my hair straight, as I have a chin length graduated bob 30 minutes use when fully charged is more than enough for my hair.
I love the straightener it very good however my only negative is you only get 30mins sometimes not even that long which is very disappointing. Takes hours to charge. I like its cordless however it should have a longer heating time. Shame about that however lovely.
It is so convenient to use! I always wanted cordless straightener but they are so expensive so grabbed when I saw sale on it! I say it is enough time to straighten hair when charged I even don’t need tk charge it until another time as 15 min is enough for me to straighten. The only thing that I didn’t like – it is quite heavy compared to usual straighteners but it is no issue to use.
I had to order a second as the operating switch did not work on the first model sent. However very quick exchange and all good.
Great product if you want to straighten your hair quickly and only have a couple of minutes to do so.. Charge only lasts for about 15 mins on high setting but will last longer if on low setting. Cannot use while charging but a brilliant produc
This is a great cordless straightener and does keep its charge. Worth the money and very smooth when both straightening or curling
Very eye catching and fab as a gift, I’ve been told easy to use and very clever. This is a second hand review in a roundabout way, but I thought really good and very impressive for the price
If you are looking for a light weight cordless straighteners, you will need to find another item, bit if your after easy to use then these are perfect I would recommend.
The first impression on receiving these hair straighteners was “Wow”. Anyone who straightens their hair would be stunned by the beautiful packaging which denotes a high end product. Upon opening the box the straighteners are in their travel case which is once again good quality. There is a silicon band over the ends to keep the plates together and they actually won’t switch on if they are. Oh and make sure you take the protective plastic off the plates as well before you use them for the first time!
I have wavy/curly hair that I usually manage to straighten well with my well known brand. And these work just as well if not better! I like the freedom of having no wire more than I thought I would and I managed to use them before the charge ran out which is a must have I think. They are ideal for travellers due to the case and I know many teenage girls would be thrilled to have these under the Christmas tree this year!
On receiving and opening the packaging , the first thing you notice is the extremely durable and heat proof travel case. It somewhat reminds me of a sunglasses case, in that the shape is a hard mould of the inner contents. If this case we’re to bash around in a travel bag/case , there really wouldn’t be any damage at all to the straighteners. The straighteners fit quite snug in their little case too , so there is no rattling around.
Another thing I loved about the travel case is how it completely unzips around the side , so that the case can be butterflied out flat, making it a really good rest for the straighteners, as well as a heat proof mat.
Alternatively , you are also provided with a black roll away mat , that ties up with a cute ribbon . I’d be more likely to keep this out permanently on my beauty table at home as the case itself is heat proof enough to use on holiday as a mat , but it is great that this can be made compact to take with you.
I rely on straighteners abroad in humid heat , so it’s great that babyliss provides you with 2 plug adaptors for the charger. They are so easy to change , and are a really great touch that I wouldn’t have even thought of.
If getting ready for a night out , I usually prefer to do my hair last, meaning I often panick about the heat of the straighteners when I leave the house. Babyliss give you a silicone heat mould for you to slip the straighteners in to keep them closed when they are off. This, along with the heat proof case really does put your mind at ease when you have to frantically get ready and leave. One less thing to worry about , especially as I have read in the manual that these straighteners physically cannot turn on while closed.
On to actually using the straighteners :
I didn’t even need to read the instructions to figure out how to use these straighteners. They are so straight forward and easy to use and absolutely anybody could use them. I like how the power level is shown via colour . I was worried that with a cordless they may just stop mid use if I had ran out of charge. But the colour indicator is great to prompt me to recharge them if they are getting low.
As a straightener these do exactly what it says on the tin. They heat up so fast, there is no pulling on hair , very smooth , not too heavy , and you can controll the heat really well. However , they are also great for curling or shaping the hair round the face for my fringe and feathering. I don’t like poker straight hair , so the rounded tongue ends really help to get a smooth curl or wave at the ends.
More importantly , after using these straighteners and working out which heat setting worked best for my hair , my hair actually stayed smooth all night without the use of any additional hair products.
I’m so happy with this purchase and I’ll deffinatley be looking at the rest of their range.
Packaging and construction
———————————
Wow, the packaging and material on this product is sublime and really feels of a high quality. There is box which sites inside a sleeve. Upon opening the box your presented with the carry case in which the straightners reside. Pull that out and the blue card holding the case in place and your presented with a pair of boxes and instruction manual. The instruction manual is light but contains all the details you will want to see on how to use it. There is also a pair of box’s under that also. One of the boxes contains the wall wart power socket as well as a mat. In the other box is the UK adaptor that plugs onto the wall wart. The wall wart is universal so I imagine that second box will just have the adaptor based on your region.
Now going back a step, the straighteners are in the lovely carry case mentioned above. Open the case up and your presented with the straighteners which looks absolutely amazing. The gloss piano black finish paired with the rose gold accents make it look amazing. The straighteners have a silicon cover on the head to keep it together so remove before use. It is nice to see it is silicon though so heat resistant. Next there is also plastic cover on the plates so make sure to peel them off before use!!!!!!
Now on the straighteners themselves is three a button with 3 LEDs which can denote the charge level but also temperature. Round the rear is where you plug in the straighteners
Use
—-
Using them is simple. Out the box I came with it mostly charged up to full on the lithium Ion battery enclosed. Getting the straightners going is a simple affair. You will select the temperature you want by clicking the button. 1 click – 160 degrees, 2 clocks – 180 degrees and 3 clicks 200 degrees, choose the temperature based on your hair type, colour and damage.
In actual use holding the straighteners is nice and easy. I will add they weigh about 450 gram on there own, so heavier then say ones which plug into the wall which is expected, but still easily usable. As for use, well not much to it really, but what I will say is my hair flows through the plates so easily and smoothly. it does make me wonder why I paid twice as much.
The battery life is rated at 30 mins max. In use I have only used them in a session lasting 15 mins and will then put them on charge after. My slight concern, as with all these types is if the battery degrades, but for now, its a non-issue. Being able to use these in the bathroom mirror then sitting on my bed at an off angle has made wireless straighteners a god send.
Overall
——–
Overall really like these. They are pricey, but right up there in quality with plenty of other straighteners coming from the company with a G and D in its name but adds a wireless spin on them. Comes in much cheaper then my ones from the vacuum cleaner company and do just as solid a job. They look amazing and the presentation element is top notch.
In use for my hair, type 2C it works well to straighten it out in about 15 mins. If your someone who is going to spend much longer on it, be aware of the charge on the product! I would also ensure you keep it on charge also once finished so when you pick it up rushing in the morning or before going out, not left with no charge in it!!!
