My Review:

I am blessed with beautiful silky straight hair, but from last few years they started getting dry, damaged and frizzy. So I need to manage them for parties and decided to buy a hair straightening iron. Another reason I got this is for my mom, her hair are a bit curly and getting mature , it’s more of her requirement than mine.

The first straightener I got was from Nova but I was not satisfied with that one and decided to buy Philips. When my mom bought this, the SA told her that it won’t straighten mature hair effectively but still we decided to give it a try as I don’t trust the SAs here!

I used this straightener on my mom’s hair first and her hair got straightened easily. The plates got heated in few seconds and it took around 25 mins to straighten her lightly curled and matured hair.

And Surprise Surprise  .. my hair needed 5 min to get manageable smooth straight hair!

Don’t forget the tip: spray some heat protector on your hair before using these heated products. So go and style up your hairs girls.
