5 in 1 Professional Curling Iron Set

I typically don't write reviews, but you know when you find the perfect product and everyone finds out about it and suddenly it changes? Because you told everyone it got too popular and they change something and it is no longer perfect? For that reason alone, I politely request that you stop reading this review right now. Thank you. Now: This is my third Xtava product. I have the best hair dryer I have ever found and the collapsing diffuser so I had to try the wand. Nothing else I bought was holding curl at all or was too hot and awkward for my non-professional hands to do with a heat glove on. So I ordered this set, the 5 wands being more than I needed, but it was Xtava and it was a very competitive price. I was sure I'd be fine. It came today. Xtava has the most incredible presentations of their products. You feel like you are getting a top dollar professional TOOL in a heavy very reuseable box with a bag to hold all the wands. There is no temperature control in the model I purchased. There is also NO cool tip on the end and you must use gloves if you require two hands. I looked at the different barrels and tried the 1", the same size as my professional quality iron I already have. I thought that was silly, I already have this. I was mistaken. I attached the wand which had a thumb bar to hold the hair in place, the thing that I thought was what was the reason I could never get my hair professional looking. I didn't have the dexterity. I was wrong. No temperature control and I forgot to wear a glove on the first curl. After several choice words, I remedied the situation and went after it. I took 1" sections and curled them in alternating directions. My hair is longer and very processed on top and almost virgin outside of the highlight cone from the crown to your ears. I did use Senastien reshaper as I went and truly after the second curl my experience was appearing very different and I was getting very excited. My hair was curling beautifully and had that structure that pros get so much better than I. I did my entire head the same way and sprayed each section again before I moved on to the next. Since I have a ton of hair, usually by the time I get done the first curls have already fallen. This time they looked like when I had just done them. It's now an hour later and it's holding like when I go to the beauty shop (at my wedding....) or use a flat-iron (behavior modification for hair). This is a perfect product so far. So don't buy it! Xtava might not get more successful for doing so well, the wand will never ever change. Then possibly my perfect wand will be safe. But I'm lousy with secrets and OMG this wand is amazing! Now why can't they just make purses?
