I usually never do this, write reviews, but I hate this curling iron i've owned it for a week now. I curl my hair everyday and this curling iron doesn't hold the curl. I decided to buy it for a replacement and after seeing the great reviews I thought okay i'll give a try, I have a Hot Tools straightner for 5 years already and it still works like the first day I bought it but this curling iron for me is a disapointment.
