xtavaIt Curl Curling Wand - 0.75 to 1.25 Inch Professional Dual Voltage Hair Curling Iron with Ceramic Barrel, Cool Tip, Auto Shut Off - for Long or Short Curls with Glove and Travel Case

First time trying to curl my hair and very easy to use.Love love love this curling wand and the curls hold well.

This product exceeded my expectations, I usually use a 3/4 gold barrel (Hot tools) to curl my hair that I have loved for years. I have also experimented with many other wands from professional brands to generic brands. Overall my hair naturally, is completely straight, fine, with moderate amount of hair but no body at all. So I have always had troubles getting my hair to hold curls. This product does a marvelous job. The long barrel makes it easy to get all my hair wrapped around. The barrel is not round but more of an oval shape which really helps with the beach/messy wave effect and it was hot enough to get my hair to curl. The wand is very elegant and professional looking as well. It is lighter then my normal curling wand and feels kinda of cheap plastic. But it worked amazing. Also the digital screen shows you the temperature while it heats up, so there is no need to guess when to start curling. Overall it is very easy to use and works great. I bought this wand solely for use while I’m Germany because I was confused about converters and adapters and if it would actually work, so I opted to buy a curling wand that was 100-240v, so I won’t have to worry about converting and burning my hair off. But after testing it out I think I have a new favorite wand! Will update how it works during my trip.Update: two days later after working a 12 hour shift, sleeping and working out, curls are still beautiful! (See picture with pink shirt)

The glove is awful tight for a guy, but no burns. There definitely is a learning curve. However, my barber told me that she liked my beach waves this morning. Let's see how I'm doing when she trims my beard this week.Other than those minor difficulties, after I watched an Xtava Curling Wand tutorial video, I, likely, will do better next time, and will want to upgrade to a 5-stars review.Waving my back hair, definitely, is much more challenging than the sides.Any constructive comments would be appreciated.

Love it! Great iron for the price. 👍🏻

I've always used those curling irons with the clamp closure to hold hair down. So I was intimidated by the curling wand idea. I assumed that without the clamp, my non-coordinated self would end up tangling my thick long hair in the wand, burning my hand/head/neck, end up with a frizzy non beach waves look or all of the above. Then the day came when my clampy curling iron broke. I looked and found this one and decided to give it a try. I am so happy I tried it! It's so much better than a clampy curler. WHY? Because my hair doesn't get caught in anything. I can do large sections if I'm in hurry or small sections if I have time. I can just curl a bit at the root for some volume if I want my hair straight. NO clamp marks or bends in the curl...The list of pros just go on and on. I also like that I can adjust heat, because my hair requires high heat for the style to hold more than a few minutes without going back flat and lifeless. I also love that the technique you use is to invert the iron with the handle part close to your roots, This is helpful when trying no to burn yourself, lol. Oh and the glove it wonderful! No more burned finger tips.
