Will this work with a hair straightener?

Most probably no. Check the power consumed by your device in question before plugging it in. This particular model holds 200 W at most, but there are others available, up to 3 kW - they will hold almost anything.

Only used it to charge camera batteries - the use case described takes alot more current - compare the watts drawn by the target device and the max supplied by the converter.

Since this has a built-in converter, it should be fine, but I wouldn't put that as a blanket statement for every model of hair straightener. Mine worked fine, and I used it every day while I was in Europe.

I used it with my small clothing steamer and it kept shutting off. I wouldn't use with appliances. It worked fine with pc, phone

The specs say it won't work with hair dryers or straighteners. You will need to find another (more expensive) model that can handle appliances with a heavier draw. The Conair TS2000 2,000-Watt High/Low Converter may work for you.

I cannot say that it will work for a device with heating element like the one you have and wish to use for. The specification itself says up to 200 watts. You will have to see watts indicated on your hair straightener.

I wouldn't try it. I own this exact flat iron, ordered it this exact one and it's not as good as the ones in the mall. It's constantly pulling on my hair and after I "straighten" my hair, my hair looks kinda poofy. Don't even buy it imo.

I dont suggest it, if heat is on it for too long it will burn off, on to your curler/ Straightener.

From my experience, no. I say that because my hair doesn't naturally straighten out: its naturally kinky/curly. Whenever I get a treatment to relax my curls, the blower works fantastically well because I've altered my natural hair. If you have similar texture as mine, you should not expect this blower to fix your hair. Instead, you could use it to help the process: wash your hair, use this blower (comb your hair down so that it drys down), then use a hot flat iron to smooth you're hair. I hope this helps. Good luck!

I haven't. But I have had one of those mall kiosk people use a flat iron on my hair and do it both straight and curled. I just never tried it! It's kind of wide, I think 1 1/2 inches so might not work too good. I think a 1 inch would work better.

Yes! Just make sure that when you are doing the straightener, your get a very thin layer. I find that the straightener is the most important step.

It would be fine for any kind of straight hair I would think. Or if you want to straighten curly hair. It just doesn't work with a diffuser.

The last two answers are good. What is the wattage draw of your hair straightener (or whatever electrical appliance you want to use)? Does it exceed the capabilities of the converter? Actually you should allow a 10% safety factor. So if the converter was rated at 1,000 watts don't use anything that draws more than 900 watts.

Yes I believe so, these straighteners, are very good. Works well for me, on my natural hair and weaves!

It could be used to help straighten hair if you use a hot blow dryer and pull out the curl. My hair is straight. I use it to do the last steps of styling. I like it because it helps to avoid static electricity.

It will work whether you air dry, brush out or blow dry. I wouldn't straighten my hair with it as it is for curl defining not straight styles.
1322597
Yes. I used my hot hair straightener all over Europe with this. No problems.

Probably not. It's just a mild keratin conditioner. Helps with dry and damaged hair to keep it smooth, but it's not a straightener. Would make your hair softer, but would not remove curl.

it may work but I found it difficult to use this type of iron with the shorter clamp. With fine, straight hair I think you also just need to use a lot of product ;)

as of today, my remington s9600 silk ceramic works well. I only use this device once a week to straighten my hair

I use this comb for my sister who has very corse hair. It straightens her hair pretty good without burning it. I think it should work well for you.

I have heard from others that any hair straightener works fine. I personally have their straightener, that's how I got introduced to the oil.
