I’ve longed for gentle beach waves and these are the ones. I have thin shoulder length hair and the wave and volume I get is really good. I’ve tried both sides of these to get more of a lift and slightly different wave. My daughter tried them and order straight away
As someone that is no good normally with anything to do with hair these are amazing! I’ve tried to curl my hair with ghds and with a waving wand with no success but these are so easy to use! Super easy to create lovely curls with no effort. Just clamp your hair in, making sure you don’t put too much in and you get a great curl!! Well chuffed!
These feel well made, a little plastic and cheap in places but they don’t need to be big and heavy. They do what they’re supposed to really well, and the design of the well means that hair curls really easily and consistently. My partner has found this is a really nice way to add a bit of volume to her short hair, with very little time invested of an evening.
does the job. overall good and heats up well but i can’t change the temperature which is an issue. not seen anyone else have this issue so don’t let it put you off from buying just a fault during the manufacture.
I was going to buy another much more expensive branded one however, after reading the reviews decided to not buy that one and opt for this one. I havent been disappointed! My hair is quite fine but the product makes nice waves in it. Whether the waves last or not is another matter but very impressed, especially given its price. Would recommend if looking for a good, resonably priced starter kit.
Great for creating that beach wavy look! Cord is a good length and they are a really great price. Easy to use, lightweight and they can be used on fine hair!
For the price, it’s fabulous! Gives lovely waves, and they last!!
Just make sure you don’t rest it on the carpet or touch the blades with your hands, as it is red hot!!
This was bought for my daughters as a gift as we aren’t very good at using straightens to curl hair so I needed something much easier and quicker to achieve waves, and this is fab. Large loose waves can be achieved quickly and easily. One has thick hair and one has thin hair but it works on both hair types. My daughter with thinner hair kept her wavy hair for a couple of days, but with thicker hair, it dropped out after she slept on them. The only negative is that the curlers get really hot, both sides, inside and out so very easy to burn hands, I probably wouldn’t let my daughters use them on their own hair.
Overall, very easy to use and waves looked big and bouncy – the girls were extremely happy with their hair.
I ordered this hair waver as I wanted to have big beachy waves. What I like is you can get fairly close to the scalp, although you have to watch you don’t get too close to the scalp as it does get very hot, you don’t want to burn yourself. My waves can start quite high of my head which is just my preference as I don’t like my hair too flat to my head. This waver is very similar to a hair crimper, but much bigger leaving you with zig zag style waves rather than curls.
It doesn’t take long to do, so much quicker than curling with a hair wand.
My hair is quite fine and I do find with this the results lasts a long time which is fab!
It is quite heavy to hold, but once you get he hang of it is so easy to use.
I’m very happy with this product. Its relatively cheap compared to others on the market and once you get the hang of it, its easy to use
As a female with small hands, this is quite a heavy and large piece of equipment. Requires a lot of grip and strength to use, but does the job. Lots of heat settings but because these are on a turning disc, it tends to turn when your doing your hair, gets in the way. But good product besides that.
I gave up styling my thin hair long time ago and bought this little thing as an attempt to give my hair some character for a big night out. And, to my disbelief, my hair looked great! I don’t do reviews, but thought you should that it’s definitely worth buying!
I love this .. I have a few types of curlers that just take ages to go through your whole head of hair, this wand is actually really easy to use and creates beautiful beach waves. You can do large sections at a time so a really quick way to get those curls
Super easy to use and you wont burn yourself if you use it as meant as in don’t put your hands around the heated plates which to me is obvious, and there really is no need to anyway. Has adjustable heat setting and is great and making waves, bargain price and i think its grea
Creates a wave akin to the waves a plait or braid creates – not too intense or ‘crimpy’, but a definite, lovely wave.
Easy to use. Would only say that the temp dial easily gets adjusted by accident as you’re holding / using the waver, but hey, for this price point you can’t complain!
One of the easiest hair curling tools I’ve used. I have quite fine long hair and I can curl it in around 10-15 mins and it lasts two days.
Only reason it isn’t a 5 * is as others have commented on it’s quite heavy and it’s really easy to burn yourself!! Burnt forehead first time of using! Ouch! I love it though! Great value for the price.
Really happy with my purchase and looked amazing when I don’t my daughters hair. She has a lot of hair, it’s heavy and doesn’t normally hold a curl but the wave lasted. Easy to use. I have a very short bob and works nicely on my hair too. I would recommend using them both ways (normal and upside down) to give a less uniformed look especially on shorter hair and avoid going too close to the root and it will give a weird kink (I done this on daughters) and had to correct with straighteners. Overall amazing value and work well
Loved this product I got so many compliments on my hair on the hen do. Its quick and easy to use. I think it would look better if I had longer hair, but this is not the product fault.
This creates lovely waves, even on my short hair, but boy does it get hot!
It’s virtually impossible to use this without burning your hands/fingers/face! I’m really surprised that this product is even available from a safety perspective; there is no external casing on the heating plates at all.
Anyone who’s used to using a straightener will automatically place their hands around the heating end to place more pressure on the plates, as I have!
I ordered this product as I wanted to have beachy waves without having to curl my hair around a wand or curler. I hoped the waver would be easy peasy….First things first, this is like a giant hair crimper which leaves sort of zig zag waves in your hair.
The first attempt to do my hair with this left me looking like Rumplestiltskin in his angry wig- my hair was massive and not beachy at all, (unless you consider landing on a beach after a parachute jump, beachy).
The second attempt was much better- I curled (or more, crimped) from the ends up towards the root so I didnt overlift the roots and that gave me a better effect- although still quite ‘Tina Turner in the 80s’ big.
Third attempt and I’ve gotten the hang of it- i have mermaid crimp waves now. This time I alternated the angle I crimped my hair at and did a combination of uniform waves and random crimps at different angles. That seems to help.
Here is my personal list of Pros and cons.
Pros: Gets hot
Doesn’t take long to do (much quicker than curling)
Result lasts ages
Free arm workout because its quite heavy
Temperature controlled so you dont frazzle your hair
Swivvel cord makes it easier to hold/angle
Looks like it will last as seems to be good quality.
On/off switch
Cons: Gets freakishly hot on both sides of the press so you can get easily burnt
It quite heavy
Clamping it shut takes quite some effort- I got hand cramp
Temperature control dial is super sensitive and in a daft place on the handle
Can make you look like Rumplestiltskin
Tricky to get the hang of
Overall I am quite happy with this product. Its relatively cheap and once you get the hang of it, its quite easy to use, albeit heavy and difficult to hold closed. I have long(ish) hair so I dont need to wave my hair too close to my head/face so less chance of me burning myself.
I think the important thing is to not try it for the first time right before a first date or a big night out, otherwise you may be disappointed.
