TRESemme 2066BU gladde bediening keratine controle keramische stijltang (3030053220664)

Heats up a little slow but once it’s hot it’s perfect, really good value for money.

I got this as a replacement for the first and only other straighteners I’ve ever had, which were Remington brand. They survived 15 years and 5 house moves, until they finally gave up the ghost recently.After much deliberation I decided on this Tresemme brand straightening iron. I have had good results with Tresemme hair care products so thought the straighteners were a safe bet. Here are my thoughts on these:- These straighteners are fairly basic looking, with nice rounded edges and a lightweight and slim design.- They are easy to hold without burning the hand and they come with a heat proof mat to rest them on when hot and for storage- The cable is nice and long, with an angled end where it connects to the iron so you don’t have to bend and damage it whilst in use- The heat defence spray is a nice bonus, which adds a lot of shine and has a powerful yet fine mister- The three heat settings are easy to adjust but there is no LCD screen to show temperature- They heat up fast, seem to get to the expected temperature, but take quite long time to cool down again.- There is, strangely, no locking function on the iron to lock them shut for safety when hot. My previous straighteners had a safety lock and it is annoying not to have one here.- The plates just about clamp together when pressed lightly and do not snag the hair at the edges- However, for some reason, I kept finding my hair strands naturally gravitated toward the back end of the plates which meant that some hairs were missed and I had to keep adjusting the strands.- The actual plates of these are quite narrow compared to some other straighter a which means for thick or long hair, it takes longer to straightenOverall I got a good straightening effect with my very wavy, dry and frizzy hair, although it did take longer than with my precious straighteners. I would still say that these cannot compare to my old Remingtons, but they are a good second place.I hope this is helpful.
