Nicky Clarke has been a stylist to the stars for god knows how many years, and the market is full of his hair "care" products ranging from curling tongs, hair clippers for men, straighteners, hair dryers and shampoos. The straighteners heat up to a super high temperature of 230 degrees, however it does have a heat dial on the side which goes from 1-5, I'm unsure as to which setting is what temperature apart from obviously the 230 degrees being setting number 5.
