Next Level Curling!!!
Naturally, I was extremely hesitant to pay $130 for a curling iron. I did see more consistently good reviews for the Sultra irons than its wand competitors (CHI, T3, cheaper brands, etc.). I wanted a curling iron that didn't have the clip in it and that's exactly what I got and MORE. First off, this curling iron is FAST to heat up. In about 30 seconds it's already heated and good to go. Second, it comes with a mitt to wear on your hand that is twisting your hair around the wand. I cannot stress this enough-- SAFETY people!! You absolutely must wear the mitt because this thing gets HOT!!! I'm not huge on the pink color (I'm not a girly girl), but it's not like I'm wearing that glove outside, so who cares if it's pink. The glove is a snug fit (and I have small hands too), but I like that because it makes styling easier. It protects your hand from the heat well too. Third, I love how this want maintains a consistent temperature too. I have bought way too many items that I had to put down after a few minutes to heat up again. Fourth; this wand DOESN'T have a clip! I absolutely HATE clips on curling irons because they snag and break my hair like crazy! There are two barrel sizes -- 1 inch and 3/4 inch; the 1 inch is more popular, but the 3/4 inch is better if you have shorter hair and/or you want tighter curls. Fifth; you can create your own style of curls. If you want looser, more beachy waves, I like to twist the part of hair and then twist that part over the rod. If you want more spirals, then try to keep the same side of the hair against the wand. You can play around with your hair to get the look that you want. Sixth, and the BEST part; this thing DRAMATICALLY reduces styling time. I have shoulder length hair that is thick and coarse and it usually takes about an hour with a tradition iron. This thing literally takes 10-15 to style my ENTIRE head and the results are better than if you were to use tradition curling irons, flat irons, heated curlers, dry curlers, etc. This gives you the BEST hair of your life. It makes your hair shiny too! Since this wand DOES get very hot, like with ANY hot tool, you want to make sure you use a heat protectant spray!! You can buy these at the Sultra website OR inside Sephora stores (or Sephora online with free shipping). Remember, if you buy this at a Sephora and you don't like it, you can always return it back at Sephora even if you used it. I honestly doubt it though because you will NEVER go back to any other tool for curl/wave styling! I've had this for about three months now and I LOVE it. I still cannot believe how fast it styles your hair (you seriously only need to keep your hair wrapped around it for about 10 seconds for a tight curl or 5 seconds for a loose wave). Your curls will last all day and night too, I promise. In fact, your curls will still look good the next morning! — 1 year, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 22 of 34 people said helpful

Review subject
I have really thick hair and I was about to give up on curling irons, and i am not as talented to do it with the straightener. I bought a hot tools one, did some curls and an hour later when i got to work everything was gone. I bought sultra because atleast I can return it at sephora if I don't like it. I must say it's the only curling iron that keep my curls for all day, a good 8 hours with out dropping and give me that sexy tousled look. LOVE IT. Wished they created a 2in one too — 1 year, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 9 of 15 people said helpful

Whatcha waiting for?
I got my Bombshell in pink because I not only wanted sexy curls but to support breast cancer research too! This rod is amazing; curls in seconds and I notice less damage to my hair than traditional curling irons. It's a little tricky to use at first but with practice you'll be rocking sexy curls like a pro! A must-have beauty tool and totally worth the investment! — 1 year, 5 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 10 of 16 people said helpful
