BaByliss iCurl Review

Don't you just hate the very tedious lengths you have to go to just to make your hair perfect every single day? And when you try to curl your hair, you have to straighten the upper part first?

Well, when I returned my Rowenta Curler, I was on the lookout for a curler. I found my big barrel BaByliss Curler but I was so intrigued with what I saw at SM Makati during their sale a few months ago.

 

Ta-dah! Something that will straighten and curl your hair in one stroke. How cool is that? Lemme show you!

1. Comb your hair. Me, I use my ever reliable Goody paddle brush.

2. Start from the roots by ironing it straight.

3. Then, when you reach the middle of the length of your hair (or wherever you want to curl it), twist the iron and slowly pull it down. 

4. Release and see that it's already curled. Do this to every section of your hair until you get desired curl and volume.

Don't you just love hair with lots and lots of volume? I do! This is definitely a main stay in my girly bag. No doubt.

Rowenta Fail, BaByliss Yey!

I'm into hair styling lately that I even stay up late on weekends (and sometimes weekdays) just to watch hair styling tutorials on youtube. I envy girls who have style-able hair because I got mine permanently blowdried so it gets straight after a few hours if I curl it. Anywayyy, here are some of the electronics I used.

First, I bought this Rowenta Curler/Blow Dryer because I thought it would give me nice, big curls at the bottom. Boy, was I wrong! At first you thought it would rotate on its own. Well, obviously no. you curl it up by yourself but ultimately, it's like a round brush with air. You could think of it as a blowdryer and also a round brush. Weird, but yea, you get it. 

These are the attachments - one for blowdry, one for small curls or waves and one for big curls/waves.

This is where you attach it too. It's noisy, like super noisy.

What I hate about this is that it doesn't do what it promises, i tried having waves with this and it did not work. Does it really work just to straighten you hair? I don't think so. When I tried to make curls at the end my hair, it tangled up big time. Like I was untangling it for a good 10 minutes because it ate up my hair. I was kind of scared because it might be too tangled that I have to cut my hair. Thank God I got it untangled and the next day, I returned it and replaced it with...


...a real curler. BaByliss is one of the cheaper brands out there, it is cheaper than Rowenta but performs absolutely better. It's a no fuzz hair equipment which is ceramic too so it won't really damage my hair. I also bought a heat protectant which I will blog about soon.

This is a big barrel curler which makes big, wavy, full-volume hair which I always wanted. This heats up super fast and you could also change the temperature whenever you want. Isn't this amazing?

Also, since the Rowenta thing costs more than this baby, I got speakers for only PHP500+! Can you imagine that? Haha!

 Everything in this post, I bought at SM Appliance Center over at Rockwell.

I'm currently using my speakers right now and it's super awesome!

Good night now, it's already 12:34 and I need to sleep! Haha! Good night and hope you enjoyed this post! :)
