Advantages: Great price

Disadvantages: None

Every morning before work I like to straighten my hair if I get up early enough that is so when looking to purchase a set of hair straightners I always look out for the speed of warm up and the size of the ceramic plates as these make my life much easier in the morning if they heat up quickly and can cover larger areas of my hair in one go rather than some of the smaller sets I have owned which have only done small strands at a time. After considering many different models I settled on a set of Vidal Sassoon as they were quick heating and wide plated, the plates are ceramic making them much more effective and less likely to burn my hair.


I decided on the Vidal Sassoon and shopped around finding them for a very reasonable price of just £29.99 online and ordered them waiting only 3 days for them to arrive and when they did the first thing I did was get them out and try them. The instructions that came with the set were very straight forward and easy to follow and the straightners were non assembly just plug in and go. I plugged them in to see how long they would take to heat to using temperature and of the three different heat settings I chose the hottest. I was very impressed as they were ready to use after just 2 minutes of being turned on and the indicator light went off when they were ready to be used.


I sprayed my hair with straightener cream and tried them out, I was very pleasantly surprised as within seconds each stretch of hair I straightened was flat and very shiny and with the curved edges of the straightners I was even able to add a flick to the end of each section of hair giving the style a nice straight finish ended with a outward flick of a curl. The other two settings are for people with medium and thin set hair, however mine is very thick so I set it accordingly and could not use the lower settings as it struggled with my hair.


The straightners themselves are very stylish to look at in a matt black finish with black plates and a good smooth clamping action operated by the very comfortable to hold handles which are moulded to fit nicely into the hand. As well as the straightners I also received a nice bag which the straightners are stored in with a all round the top zip to keep them safe and out of harms way when not in use. If I was to pick out a bad point it would be that they do take a long time to cool down to a temperature where they can be put away so tend to have to leave them out in a place where they can’t set fire to anything whilst I shoot off to work.

Do I Recommend?

I would defiantly recommend these straightners to anyone considering buying them and would say they are even on par with some I have used that cost hundreds of pounds. You can still buy them for about £30.00 and at some online stores you can even get them with free delivery. I hope this review has been of help to you and thank you for taking the time to read my reviews.
