| | | Ginalli Milano Professional Clipless Curling Iron Does anyone own/have used one of these? I think they are totally cool, but I'd like to get some input.
This is the product page CYLINDER 19MM - ...::: Ginalli Milano :::...
although I've found it for like the 60-90 dollar range on Amazon.
Thoughts?

| | Frisky, do you have long or short hair? I have short, almost shoulder-length hair and I'm looking for something that would curl that  I have a hard time with normal curlers since it's short

Just make sure you are starting the rod out at the base of your hair.. almost at the root. I'll do mine this week and try to post a pic. |

| | I need one of these. Sometimes you can see the clamp impression in my hair when I barrel wrap. My 13 year old just tore her clamp off her curling iron though. I guess that works too  |

| | ^I just wrap over the clamp  So much easier than trying to wrap it with the clamp open and works just as well. |

| | One of my cowokers got this one: Le Angeliqueand says it works great, plus they have a lot to choose from in different price ranges from Amazon. I got a cheap one at Target that works for me.  |

| | I got onr of these for Christmas because I asked for one, but I haven't used it yet and it's not this brand... I actually don't even remember the brand I got, like sp5? SoP? idk. I really need to use mine! I usually have a problem with curling irons not getting hot enough to permeate my hair since it's thick, coarse, and curly.
Edit: It's about $55, 3P I think is the name of it? :/ Not holding out too much hope.

| | Regular curling irons never worked for my hair which is Asian(ish)  and fairly straight. My hair would look great for an hour and then the curl would completely disappear.
The clipless Remington I got at Target heats up quickly, has several temperature setting, and even on low is very hot (burn on neck to prove that). What I love about it is that the curl holds for days and usually IMO it looks better on the 2nd day after the curl has relaxed somewhat. |

Well, I don't wash my hair every day...every 3 or so and yes it keeps the curl for that long. I originally bought the Remington just to see if I liked the clipless iron and then planned on buying a more expensive one (b/c of course I'm assuming more $ meant it would work better  ). If I could change anything about it, I would prefer one that isn't tapered, but I can work around it so it isn't worth the extra $50-$100 for another one. Remington
