I do not recommend this item to anyone. I received this item, and I was very excited to use it. I opened the package, and plugged the crimper part to it first plugged it up, and it didn't work! I was shocked! I then plugged the curler part to it, & it did not work. I opened up the crimper, and realized the part that I needed to heat it up was missing for the crimper. I was very upset! I would not reccomend it you would b better off paying a good bit money for a nice one that will work than a one that want work at all.
