Upon receiving the package, i was very surprised how thoughtfully put together it was. The company had so kindly sent me the iron to review but they had also added a lot of goodies for me, each one packaged so nicely!
And just when i thought this was all to the box, after lifting the bubble wrap, there were more goodies buried under there! They had even included a bottle of HANA shine shield heat protectant.
I was shocked! Thank you misikko for being so thoughtful! They have excellent customer service and the shipping was pretty fast!
So the actual flat iron came with a heat mat and a velvety string bag that you can bring along for travel.
The iron itself came in a tin box which i think is super cute and so easy to store away.
Inside the tin can, a rubber mat is also included, so you won't burn your counter or anything.
The iron was actually in this leather pouch. I was amazed at how much protection it had! So many places to store this iron!
The iron itself is super cute and slimmer than the ones I've used before. You can adjust the heat and it can go up to 450. Typically i would use 300-350 because my hair is already very dry and i'm always paranoid that it will roast my hair even more. But at a lower heat setting, it still does the same job.
There is a handy on/off switch, and a red light will turn on to let you know the iron is heating up. It heats up super fast, within 30 seconds i already put it to use.
Made in Korea.
Sorry for the weird face. This is me with hair just washed and blow dried, so it's big and frizzy!
Dry and frizzy ends. Can't save it.
I love how smooth it feels, it doesn't pull on my hair at all like my other one does. I did not do my entire head, i just went around my hair with the straightener, grabbing large strands of hair to make it not so puffy.
I wish my hair was healthier (sigh), but it definatly straightened my hair a lot and gave it a little bit of a shine.(though my ends remains frizzy due to un-taken care of split ends).
Overall, i really like this iron, it is the best one out of the others i have tried, considering it doesn't pull on my hair, heats up quickly, and makes my hair look shiny and healthy after use.
You can get this iron HERE
