I purchased this from John Lewis (of course, Mama Sin has discount as she works there). Originally for £15 then it became around £13 after discount. Shops elsewhere sells this for £20, £25 - I reckon John Lewis has a pricing error = me in luck! This barrel is 1.3 inches or 34mm, I normally curl my hair using the Remington Pearl Straighter but I find it never gives anything uniform for my liking. I also know that StyleSuzi has done a tutorial using this! So I extra wanted to purchase this! As the name says it gives 'Soft Waves', I've never been a fan of Barbie curls and I've always liked the loose wave look :)
Not gonna lie this curling wand looks a bit like an Adult Toy, only because its clipless! The iron heats up to 210 degrees and does it very fast! It also comes with a heat mat and gloves. It apparently has an automatic turn off after a while so you don't set the house on fire.
This is the box that it comes with :)
I still need a bit more practice with it, and despite the protective glove I have burnt my hands already and I've only used it twice :( The good side is that I can use this very quick in comparison to using straighteners to doing soft waves - probably around 10 minutes!
