T3 SinglePass Curl X Extra-Long Barrel Curling Iron with 9 Heat Settings and Ceramic Barrel for Fast Styling and Lasting Results on All Hair Types

I would give 20 stars if I could! Best curling iron ever! Coming from someone who did hair, it is hard to find a curling iron that holds the hair tight, but still lets it barely be opened enough to slide and perfect the curl. Long barrel keeps hair from sliding out while trying to spin it. Heating level even on the third level is great. It's beautiful and is definitely worth the money. The part that is in your hand is made of good quality satin material that allows you to hold with ease all while spinning. The size of the barrel and the part in your hand in just the right size and will not make your hand cramp and it doesn't slide in your hand while you spin.

If you have long hair and want loose curls / beach waves, go for this wand. Only downside is where is the Off button?! I can’t seem to figure out how to turn it off, so when I’m done using it I just unplug straight from the outlet.

Love this curling iron

Heats up very quickly. Very wide, so best for long hair. I would also recommend for thicker hair. It is extremely powerful but the curls still don't stay for long in my thin hair. Very nice quality but also no resting clip, so it sits on whatever surface it's on, so keep on a safe surface.

With this price tag, I hope it lasts. I have been using curling irons for decades, and have tried Revlon (hinge snagged my hair), Conair (new one is flimsy and doesn’t heat up enough compared to the one from my teens), TAIFF Curves (single fixed heat setting wasn’t hot enough for my stiff hair), CHI Spin and Curl (couldn’t capture the ends of my longer hair), L’Ange Airflow (get frizzy curls), and Bio Ionic (kept accidentally hitting the buttons on the handle during use). Most recently, I’ve been using Hot Tools, which gives me perfect curls, but got tired of that soft touch TPE coating degrading after a few years and turning the handle into a sticky mess. The spring on my most recent purchase broke after 4 months. After so many fails, this no longer seemed like an expensive option. Pros: 1) I love the extra long barrel. 2) Clasp is tight and grasps the entire bundle of hair. Nothing slips out. 3) Hinge is really well designed and doesn’t snag hair. The opening and closing motion is very smooth. 4) The blush color is really pretty. 5) It has a very long cord. 6) There is no soft touch TPE handle. 7) The highest setting is really hot. I have stiff straight hair, so I need high heat for my hair to hold a curl. Cons: 1) Oof, it’s heavy. However, this works well enough that it takes less time to get my whole head of hair curled, so the weight isn’t an issue for me. 2) There is no kickstand, so the iron is close to the counter when you set it down. It’s something a silicon mat will solve. 3) The inconsistent reviews on longevity is a concern at this price point. If this lasts, it’s the best iron I have ever owned. I like it so much, I ordered the 1.5 inch as well. I didn’t want the 3-barrel interchangeable set because I like having an extra long barrel.
