What was your first impression of the Product?
The Euro 3500 Ceramic Ionic Straightener stood out to me as soon as I laid my eager little eyes on it. Its modern, sleek design, packaged together with separating clips, comb and a cute, versatile black satin clutch proved to be only the beginning of my new found love for this outstanding straightener. The LED display, floating plates and variable heat settings stood out to me when I had a closer look and when I turned it on, wow! It was hot and ready to use in no time.

What was your experience using the product?
I really can’t recommend this product enough. After heating up in a flash to a temperature suitable for your hair type, the Euro 3500 glided easily through my hair. Its slim design enabled me to get it close to the roots of my hair, adding extra volume. It has dots on either side that you can feel under your fingers which let you know where to hold it so as not to burn yourself on its outer surface.  The floating plates were great in getting an even pressure on my hair which I believe helped also in not catching any hairs towards the ends, as my other straightener did. And then I got carried away with the curls…I had half curly and half straight hair and couldn’t work out what to do next. Curling is a breeze with this product. The curls are smooth, even and there-to-stay for a good night out. Once you learn the different techniques, this straightener helps you create exactly the look you’re after, be it straight, curly or somewhere in-between.

What benefit does this product have compared to others you have used in the past?
As I’ve mentioned, compared to others I’ve used, this product heats up extremely fast, the floating plates make for even pressure leaving your hair silky and smooth. Unlike other products, this straightener does not leave your hair full of static. The ability to get the correct temperature for your hair type allows you to straighten your hair in one easy motion from root to tip, there is no need for repetition on the one section of hair. Because of this feature, I can now straighten my hair in less than half the time it used to take me. It works particularly well in styling my fringe which is prone to being wispy and fly-away. Instead, now it sits well and I have none of those unruly pieces left standing on end. The automatic switch off after 90 mins is a good feature for me also as I have burn marks on my bathroom bench from previous straighteners.

Would you recommend this product to others? Why?
I would definitely recommend this product to others, in fact, I already have. Its price is competitive to comparable products on the market. I would personally recommend this product above other popular comparable brands.

What Star Rating will you give this product based on your experience with it? (Out of 5)

What was your first impression of the Product?
I loved how the kit came with extras like, A storage clutch-This is fantastic for traveling,  A heat resistant mat- This protects my vanity while I’m using the straightener and stops it from slipping off the vanity which protects my toddler. And four easy to use hair styling clips- I find that these are essential when straightening your hair.

What was your experience using the product?
I’m not familiar with using a straightener that has an on/off switch at the handle, so the first few times I used I waited for it to heat up and then found I hadn’t even turned it on. But luckily it heats up really fast, which surprised me.  When using other hair strainers I usually find that my hair gets burnt or broken and often smells burnt. But with the Euro 3500 Ceramic Ionic Straightener I found that it glided over my hair with such ease and didn’t burn or damage my hair. My husband was also very happy to see that I was using a protective heat matt to protect our vanity.

What benefit does this product have compared to others you have used in the past?
I can adjust the heat, depending on how I want to style my hair but the biggest benefit of all is it protects my hair.  My hair is dyed blonde so it is already fragile and its important to me use hair styling stools that don’t compromise the health of my hair even more so. Other straighteners I’ve used in the past have had very short cords, this makes it difficult to move around and do the back of your hair.

Would you recommend this product to others? Why?
Yes, because the straightener’s ceramic plat protects your hair, its long cord and light weight makes it easy to use. The temperature gage helps you create the right heat that suits your hair thickness.

What was your first impression of the Product?
So excited to try it! Awesome packaging & was impressed because it’s very expensive!!

What was your experience using the product?
Fantastic product! I’ve tried so many styling tools to try curl my hair & this is the only one that actually worked!!! I woke up the next morning & my hair still had so much volume normally it would be very flat!! It heats up very fast & comes with a storage pouch, heat protection mat, with sectioning clips and a styling comb which so everything you need is there!

What benefit does this product have compared to others you have used in the past?
Heats up very quickly & easy to use! When I used it to straighten my hair it smoothed all my fly-ways – no frizz in sight! Other straighters still left my hair a tad fizzy especially in the back!

What was your first impression of the Product?
Wow!  The packaging was great – presented in a box, this Hair Straightener had an exclusive look to it.  The extras that were packaged were both functional and looked good; I particularly found the sectioning clips a boon.

What was your experience using the product?
This was a breeze to use.  My old one had a chunky feel to it whereas this one is very sleek.  My hair responded well on its lowest setting for straightening, and I used the highest setting for curling.  Both styles worked very well and my hair was left feeling smooth and shiny – not stiff and matte as it used to.

What benefit does this product have compared to others you have used in the past?
Besides being a slim and light tool to use, it also left my hair feeling very swishy and light.  It’s a joy to use – and it’s very quick to get the style I want with a minimum of fuss.

Would you recommend this product to others? Why?
I have already recommended this product as well as encouraged my friends to give it a try whilst they visited – and they loved it.  Can’t do better than that!

What was your first impression of the Product?
I really liked the presentation of this straightener. It comes with four sectioning clips, comb, heatproof mat and black pouch, so really everything you need to straighten your hair, and perfect for travel.
It would have some big shoes to fill, as I have used my GHD for the last two years and had been quite happy with it.

What was your experience using the product?
I switched on this straightener, put it right up to the top temperature (the hotter the better, right?)  Applied some thermal protection spray, and waited for a beep to tell me it was ready to go. And waited. And waited.
No beep.
Eventually I figured out there was not going to be a beep, and I started straightening. Once I got used to the idea that this is not a GHD, and figured out the correct way to hold it, it worked beautifully.
However, after the first few sections, I noticed that my hair was coming out a bit dull and “fried” looking. I adjusted the heat settings, and eventually got the perfect temperature for my hair. Hotter is not always better!
I did one side of my hair straight, slightly flicked under. The straightener worked really well, easy to position and the swivel cord made it very manoeuvrable. I did find that the barrel heated up quite quickly, making it hard to hold properly until I discovered there is a raised thumb hold to clamp it down firmly.
I decided to try to curl the other side, a technique that has always eluded me.
By now I had the temperature just right, and I was delighted to find that with a bit of a twist of the hand I was left with a lovely soft curl!
It was a bit tricky to get the curls and I did get a hot hand a few times, but I was very pleased as I have never been able to do more than one or two with my other brand straightener.
After a bit of experimenting, the results from this straightener have been excellent.

What benefit does this product have compared to others you have used in the past?
I was really impressed with this hair straightener. I especially liked that the temperature can be adjusted. I have medium fine hair, and I have found that with other straighteners my hair often starts looking dull, dried out and fried halfway through straightening (even with my other straightener).
The adjustable temperature makes a wide variety of styles available; I have used a lower heat to just smooth my hair and get rid of frizz, but still keep my natural wave.
This straightener maintains a consistent heat, has automatic shut off (great for me as I am a bit of a scatterbrain…), very easy to use, comes with great accessories, and looks great.

Would you recommend this product to others? Why?
I would recommend this product to anyone with fine or medium fine hair. I didn’t realise until I started using this hair straightener the damage I had been doing by overheating my hair.

What Star Rating will you give this product based on your experience with it? (Out of 5)
I give this 4 out of five, I have to take one star off because of the barrel heating up, but overall this is a really great product.

Flora

What was your first impression of the Product?
I was very impressed, the packaging looks good and the products looked great. I was so excited!

What was your experience using the product?
It left my hair very sleek. The temperatures were perfect; it didn’t leave my hair feeling dry. I used it a few days straight and my hair still felt great in comparison to cheaper brands.

What benefit does this product have compared to others you have used in the past?
This product works a bit better then other straighteners. The pouch, mat and clips made styling and storage so much easier. It is also very stylish.

Would you recommend this product to others? Why?
Possibly not since it is $239.95.
