Hot Tools Pro Artist 24K Gold Curling Iron | Long Lasting, Defined Curls (1/2 in)

The product was clearly used before. This is secondhand and stopped working after 1 use. Came with a USA plug as well.

Does not curl at all

The item is not working. Used it once, and now it’s not heating.

used product

Not even 1 star. Not working after 3 mos.

Great iron, big curls, but stopped working and the sellers referred to hot tools American site, which doesn't cover international plug use, so no warranty as promised. Disapointed!

used but advertised as new.

Me encanta. Buena calidad, no maltrata el cabello y fácil de utilizar.

Luvd!

I have been a long-time lover of Conair products and got my first taste of a professional hot tool a couple years ago when I was sent a high-end hair dryer (HanaAir) to review through my blog. It blew me away (literally!) and it was amazing how much better it was and how it cut my drying time in half than a cheaper version or brand. I also have a Ceramix hair straightener which I love and would recommend a professional product for a flat iron as well. Curling irons are a different story though. I have very fine hair that doesn't seem to hold a curl. Despite using a ceramic curling iron with adjustable heat (usually put at the highest heat setting), I just was not getting the curl I desired. I have multiple Conair ceramic curling irons from Walmart, in various sizes ranging from 1/2" - 2". I kept hoping for results I would see on other girls online without having to pay the price for a professional tool. I was so wrong. It's been several years since I've been using those curling irons and it just got to the point where I wouldn't really bother curling my hair because the curl wouldn't last past noon, despite using hair spray or products in my hair. :Enter the Hot Tools 1181, 1" curling iron. I'm in love!!! I have seen many, many, MANY girls/beauty gurus on YouTube and blogs using this brand and iron. I thought how much difference could it really make. Let me tell you, a HUGE DIFFERENCE. I got the iron and was exciting to try it. I had watched some tutorials online and am familiar with various ways to curl my hair, but no expert by any means (I still get hair envy! ;). I learned that since my hair is fine and soft, I should not heat it all the way (this baby goes up to 430degrees, I believe). So I kept it around the 250-275degrees mark and that worked really well. I sprayed my hair with a heat protectant first and got to work. Sectioning off my hair, I started with the bottom and worked around and then up, around and up... and so on. The first thing I noticed is how quickly it curls the hair. I used to hold my hair around the barrel of my Conair irons for 20 seconds, or more, and still not get the desired results! With my Hot Tools, I count to 8 and it's a perfect curl. Hold longer for a tighter curl but be careful not to singe you hair. The curls lasted me into the evening, even after work my hair still had a wave to it, despite working all day and working out at lunch time! It really works well. Bottom line: it curls the hair fast and holds the curl. I think the 1" is a great size to start with if you're looking for a medium tight curl or a beachy wave, you can obtain both with this curling iron. I am considering getting another size in the future, I'll definitely stick with this brand.

This is the only 1.5 inch curler that delivered really good curls for me.

I have thick asian hair, that can be very stubborn to holding a curl, and this iron has always done the trick without using too much heat! I had this iron originally years ago, but got sucked up into the world of YouTubers/haulers and consumerism and purchased curlers for $300+ .. a few years later , many many many dollars later and a few permanent ugly burn scars ... in back here with this iron. & for 60$ you cannot beat the quality an maneuverability of this iron! It’s so easy to use., effective , cheap and lasts for a long time ( from experience ) Highly highly highly recommend
