Cons
- •Curls created with this tool do not hold well on very curly or coily hair, typically lasting no more than 10 minutes, making it unsuitable if you want lonasting curls.
- •The curling barrel tends to produce uneven curls and is not recommended for tighter hair types seeking lasting curl styles.
- •Some users experience frizziness after styling rather than smoothness.
- •The straightener attachment can feel awkward or uncomfortable to hold and use for some.
- •Despite the multiple attachments, not all are equally useful, with curls from the glosser or diffuser less impressive than hoped.
- •A number of users feel the product does not fully justify its higher price point, especially when curling performance is a priority.
