I got the couture in black. I just wanted a good straightener that has temperature controls with smaller plates and is strictly for dry hair. I didn't want to spend that much but I still wanted a good straightener that I can use on my hair. I originally wanted the petite straightener, but they didn't have it in stock and I wasn't willing to wait for it to go back in stock (I'm impatient). Also, the company is slow with email replies. They reply much faster on their facebook page.

I like this straightener a lot. I like how big the range for the temperature is, so I can straighten my extensions at lower temperatures to reduce the damage I do to them. It's not as small as I hoped but it is small enough. It works very well in straightening my hair when it's dry, which is quite a feat as it is. However, the temperature is adjusted by a dial instead of a digital adjuster so you kind of just have to guess or estimate what temperature you are on the dial. I don't know yet but I've been thinking of buying the petite. Having a straightener with less than 1 inch plates would be nice.

I paid a lot for this set. This was a big splurge for me and the most expensive hair styling tool I have ever bought. Parting with this much money for a single item was almost painful, but I still think it worth it. Now, I've owned a lot of cheap curling irons before just because I'm such a cheap person. They never really curled my hair and after curling with lots of hairspray, they would fall out within 20 minutes. It was very disappointing. However, I never could justify buying such an expensive curling iron before, but my family members changed my mind. You definitely get what you pay for.

Now this 4play is pretty pricey, but it's like you get four curling irons in one. You can have a variety of sizes and the tiny 9mm to 18mm mini reverse is quite an interesting little gadget. Of course, I had to put it to the test. My friend, who has pin straight Asian hair, reports having hair that does not hold a curl and even with lots of hair spray, does not stay. She says the only time her hair stayed in curls was when a professional did it for a wedding but even then, it had fallen out by then end of the night. She had such long hair so I found her to be the perfect candidate in putting this curling wand to the test.

I chose to use the 9mm to 18mm series. I did her hair myself. I did not use any hairspray because I wanted to see the ability of this curling iron on its own. The left picture is the hair right after I had curled it. Then my friend put her hair in a bun and slept in a bun overnight. The right picture is her hair the next day.

I'd say it worked pretty well and she thinks so too.

I happened upon the NuMe site when I saw a pretty good deal for a voucher. I was looking for a new straightener, preferably wet to dry, because my cheap straightener just did not do the job. My hair is wavy/curly and very resistant to heat. I needed something much stronger. I checked out the website and the positive comments really appealed to me. The site happened to be having a Christmas special in which they offered this straighter plus a bottle of their argan oil for $50. It was such a good deal! I didn't actually want the argan oil but I gave it to my mother as a gift. It was actually a pretty expensive bottle on its own so I thought it would be a good gift. She loved it.

Anyway, about the straightener, I got the Wet-To-Dry in black. At 1.75 inches, it is a pretty large straightener. It's harder to use with short hair. You cannot adjust the temperature. It is at a constant 410 F. If your hair is dry or gets damaged easily, I do not recommend this at all. But for me, it was perfect. It dries my hair to a kind of straight that I have never had before. You would almost think I had naturally straight hair! And the straight hair will last until the next shower. It was wonderful. Still currently my favorite straightener.
