Missylaneous says "simply awesome" about Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron

Missylaneous — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 20:44:36 GMT

I needed a new curling iron, my last one broke, so I saw the Conair Instant Heat, and I bought it thinking it would last longer than my previous ones did , I was right, it has out lasted my previous irons, and still working great. It heats instantly and has an adjustable heating **** to adjust the heat from 1 to 25 it also has turbo button, although I never needed to use that button. I really love the safety feature I can forget to turn it off and it will go off on its own after a certain time, I was glad to have this feature because alot of times Im rushed and may forget to unplug it, or turn it off, now I dont have to worry that I may have left my curling iron on and have to make a trip back home to check. Also the cord turns when your iron does because it has a **** on the end that&*********** around allowing freedom from tangled cords, my hair dont get as frizzy or burned or dry like other irons used to make my hair look because I can adjust the heat.

pammy388 says "no waiting, gets me done in a hurry!" about Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron

I LOVE my new Conair Instant Heating Curling Iron! It gets hot so fast, I don't have to wait around waiting for it to curl my hair. The barrel is the perfect size for my personal styling needs. I am always in a rush either preplanned or spur of the moment I have to do my hair before I go anywhere. This innovative Conair product has saved me quite a few words with the hubby, who hates to wait for me to do my hair, lol. he cord twists around so that it does not get all tangled up, this also saves me time and spats. Anyone with my kind of life style or always on the go should definately purchase one of these. The price was also very reasonable, great value for the money invested.

vjbrown5 says "Home care salon" about Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron

Conair products are ok, the hair blower works good on my hair. The curling iron works well on my hair type. It heats up quickly.. I don't however like the tangling of the cord. I have used one in the past where the handle has come off, that is not good..It is a safety issue.

LauraBelle says "In Need of a Trivet or Hot Pad" about Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron

LauraBelle — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 03:19:48 GMT

I don't know what it is about curling irons, but they just don't seem to last. I seem to buy a new one at least every few years, if not more often. Because of that, I resist spending a lot of money on new ones, as I could spend double or triple the money, but it doesn't mean they're going to last any longer. This time I went with the Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron, and truth be told, I think I've used it before, but it wasn't my last one, so it didn't make me rush out and buy it again the next time, so that tells you something.

Using it this time, I find that it heats up really well. We all know what the danger is of curling irons that heat up really hot and fast, but after nearly thirty years of curling iron use, I feel like my neck should be immune to that. Besides, with these curling irons with multiple settings via dial, I just always go to the highest one anyway. There's also an added option for Turbo Heat, but I haven't found where that made a lick of difference to use it, although...

PinkbyVS says "AMAZING!" about Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron

PinkbyVS — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 14:26:41 GMT

picked up this curler in Wal Mart 10 years ago for about $12. It works wonderfully, heats fast, makes beautiful curls and doesn't snatch my hair out. I am a black woman with shoulder length hair and this curler straightens the hair from the root to the tip when I pull it through in small sections. I am then able to go back and curl it up for body and bounce. It gets hot!! When my first one broke after 3 years of use, I went out and spent $$$ on ceramic, gold n hot, and all types of overpriced styling tools. A few weeks and fuzzy hairstyles later I went back and copped my Conair Instant heat, and I was back in business. When I travel, I take these curlers, a silk scarf, satin rollers and my favorite moisturizer. That's all I need because I can straighten and curl with this. One last thing to add, ladies get some of the satin sponge rollers. After you make your body curls, keep them fresh with the satin sponge rollers, just wrap your curls around them and cover up. In the morning...

rustyshopper says "Clutzy curlz" about Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron

rustyshopper — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 14:04:45 GMT

I thought it looked interesting. Switching from curling iron to flat iron is easy but it's awkward to get used to using. Bulky and very clumsy to use. I've burned my forehead several times!

I'd say not recommended. Either get a curling iron or get a flat iron but 2 in one is just too awkward and dangeous to your skin....

NayaNichole says "A necessity every girl should have!" about Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron

NayaNichole — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 13:41:46 GMT

This is a great product. It is very user friendly. These curling irons are great for a girl on the go. I love them so much I had to buy my best friend a pair. These curling irons are great for everyday use. The quality is excellent, the functionality of the slim line design makes it easy to curl hair in a quick and timely manner....

sunflower82 says "great value" about Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron

sunflower82 — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 20:58:12 GMT

The curling iron heats up very quickly, and curls wonderfully. The 25 different heat settings are nice features, and my curls last all day. However- be careful not to bump your skin, as the iron can get VERY hot and can quickly and easily burn your skin. I have never burned my hair with the iron though. I have two sizes of these curling irons and love them both- the 1/4" and 1" barrels. ...

Jennylynn73 says "Disappointment" about Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron

Jennylynn73 — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 17:55:33 GMT

I have used Conair hair appliances since I was a teen. Understandably, because of their price, they are not top quality, last-forever types of appliances. The hair dryers last longer than the curling irons do- I've had my current one about 7 years. The last curling iron was the same size as this one and lasted about 3 years til it literally fell apart.
However, I bought this one in December - just two months ago - and two days ago the heating element simply went out. One minute I was fixing my hair, the next it felt cooler, then cooler, and finally no heat at all. I was seriously disappointed. It wasn't a great $ loss but I'm pretty disappointed in the brand. I bought a new curling iron last night- this time a ceramic one, different brand. Maybe that particular one was a dud but I really don't have time or money to test that theory....

hancockjc says "Perfect for a quick curl and go." about Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron

hancockjc — Thu, 20 Dec 2007 04:14:07 GMT

Heats up quickly. Curls easily without the cord tangling up. Cools quickly, and if you forget to unplug it, it turns off. Twenty-five curl settings. Curls stay all day. Price for the product is good. Quality, mine has lasted for over 4 years, so far. Quick and simple to use. I bought two. One for myself, and one for my daughter who lives at home. ...

SweetT1 says "It does the job, but it's not good on your hair." about Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron

SweetT1 — Wed, 28 Nov 2007 06:43:05 GMT

In the beginning I really loved my curling iron. When my hair gets to a point that it does not want to hold a curl, this curling iron would do the trick. Little did I know, while getting the curl in my hair, I was taking the moisture out of my hair. The curling iron was burning my hair. Making the ends of my hair frizzy and I hate having frizzy hair.

I won't say don't buy the curling iron. I will say, don't use the heat just because it's there. Be careful how hot you have your curling iron.

cramdencam says "It works quickly and consistently." about Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron

cramdencam — Tue, 20 Nov 2007 14:34:55 GMT

This product is reliable and delivers consistent results. I don't go on vacation without it. It heats well and you can adjust the settings from 1 to 25 for more control. The price is great too. I picked mine up at a local drugstore and figured it would not last for more than a few months. I have had mine for about 2 years now and I still use it about 3 times a week. Great buy....

LoveMyLab says "Awesome Quick Curl" about Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron

LoveMyLab — Mon, 19 Nov 2007 16:40:59 GMT

Love my Conair Instant Heat curling iron. I am always in a hurry it seems, so it is nice that my iron is hot by the time I am done blow drying. Heat is adjustable from 1-25. I keep mine set right in the middle which is perfect for me. Haven't had the need for the turbo ability because it does a fantastic curl without it.
