Review on Conair Instant Heat Curling 1 Inch by Kim Stanley

DO NOT BUY! I like the size of the 1-1/2" curler, but finding a well-designed curling iron has proven difficult. I have an old 1-1/ 2" Conair that broke. Loose beautiful curls and waves formed on my long hair. THE BAD: As others have noted, this 1 1/2" barrel does NOT look like the photo and has major design flaws: *It is NOT the smooth, shiny chrome that is shown in the photo. It's a matte, rough metal that doesn't release hair smoothly. Holds the hair in place and exposes it to more heat than necessary. under control and no matter how you try, it hits and it's either hot or cool. I hated it so much I used my old broken Conair iron and returned this one. I hope to find a suitable replacement soon.
