Advantages: Heat quickly, good performance, nice budget pair

Disadvantages: Results not as good as expensive ones

When ever I go on holiday the last few years I always buy myself a cheap pair of hair straighteners before I actually go. The last few years I've lost so many pairs on holidays that I've stopped taking my expensive ones with me. I always used to have problems with cheap straighteners that they would never heat enough and I'd never get the results I was looking for.

That was until I came across the Babyliss 2025HU professional slim ceramic straightening iron on Amazon. With an RRP of £19.99 I only actually paid a partial £12.99 for these and as they were quite cheap they seemed to fit the bill in case I was to lose them on holiday. Of course they do not give me the same performance as my Remington straighteners but as they cost a whole £50 less I never expected them to.

One of the problems I've had in the past is the straighteners not reaching a hot enough temperature to actually do anything to my hair. My hair can be quick think and curls quite a bit if it dries when it is wet. So I was quite surprised that these reached a temperature that not only got to grips with the thickness of my hair but also got hot enough to give me a finished result I was very happy with.

It normally takes me about 15 minutes for these to really do the job on my hair. At times I wish I hate my friend Lindsey's hair as hers is always done so much quicker. They have a cool to touch, heat resistant fabric on the outside that makes them easy to handle. The automatic temperature control really helps to get the straighteners to a temperature that really gets results.

For a cheap pair of straighteners these really do a good job. They aren't a pair I would personally use on a daily basis for work but for a holiday or the odd night out they are brilliant. Thankfully this time I didn't lose them but if I were to I'd happily buy another pair of the same.
