An innovative, effective curling iron that features high power, instant heat for consistent, dependable results on any type of hair. Available in 3/8, 5/8, 3/4, 1, 1-1/4 1-1/2, 2 inch barrel size.

Conventional curling iron performance cannot meet the professional stylist's needs. In the demanding salon environment, a curling iron must have the ability to heat up fast, avoid heat loss so the stylist may work quickly while achieving consistent curl quality, and variable heat with a full range of temperatures, from extra high setting for coarse, or ethnic hair to a low setting for fine, damaged or treated hair. These demanding requirements led to Hot Tools' innovative, and very effective, combination of high power and electronics, Pulse Auto Heat Control.

Hot Tools' Patented Pulse Auto Heat Control senses heat loss and regenerates heat instantly for nonstop curling with consistent quality. Barrel temperature remains constant curl after curl.

85 watts of power is four times the power of standard curling irons for incredibly fast heatup and heat restoration allows Hot Tools irons to get hot... stay hot.

Electronics sensor in iron's barrel detects heat loss and signals heating system to boost iron's heat.

Constant heat - Barrel temperature remains constant curl after curl, allowing stylist to work quickly while attaining consistent results.

Ready to use in 60 seconds. And the iron continues to build heat even if it is used before selected temperature is reached.

10 variable heat settings - Built-in rheostat control provides 10 settings from low, for fine or chemically treated hair, to high for thick, coarse hair.

Superior mica heating system - Mica heater covers entire inner surface of barrel to distribute heat faster and more evenly than conventional irons.

A steel bar connects the barrel to the handle providing a more secure construction and prevents handle from bending under pressure applied during use.

Best curling iron ever!
Reviewer: Ann from Westport, Connecticut   2009-10-29

I have what my very seasoned hair dresser calls the straightest hair he's ever styled. I've tried many curling irons over the years. This one gave me beautiful waves and yet doesn't feel like it's fying my hair. I love how the cord rotates for easier syling. I have the 1-1/2" and am now ordering the smaller one for my bangs. Just great!

Best Iron on the Market!
Reviewer: Sharon from Atlanta, GA   2009-10-14

I have very thick, coarse hair. I have tried many irons that only do a semi-good job. After a short period of time the curling irons burn out on me. This has been very frustrating and I have spent $$$ of dollars on replacements, only to get the same results. I decided to go with a Hot Tools brand this time, which my friend recommended. Their prices are very reasonable, and my friend promised I wouldn�t be disappointed. I have to say, she was right. I LOVED it! The price was right and the results have been amazing! Thanks Hot Tools for making such a great iron!!!

Smelly Hair!
Reviewer: Kayla from Wallington, NJ USA   2009-10-06

I bought this curling iron based on the reviews. I was so excited when I got it, but after using it, all it does is leave my hair burnt and smelling like a wet dog! NO matter what heat setting I put it on to avoid burning my hair, the same thing happens and leaves my hair smelling bad for days. Try it at your own risk.

Love it!
Reviewer: Morgan   2009-10-02

I have super hard to curl hair. I have NEVER been able to curl my hair before, and I've tried hot rollers, different curling irons, and soft rollers. This is the only thing that has ever worked for me. I have thick, but SUPER straight hair. In thirty minuets, I went from stick straight to curly and pretty with the 1". I reallly like the swivil cord, it doesn't get suck at all and works wonderfuly. In other reviews, I have noticed people saying the iron smells. It does the first time you use it, but this is just because the protective coating is burning off. All I do is on dry hair, comb a 1" section of hair and spray it with a flexible hairspray. Then, take it and curl it towards your head, then hold for about ten seconds. Just let it out and enjoy your curls. Bottom line: Get this. Its GREAT, it's cheap, and you will love it!

Great Job Great Price!
Reviewer: Linh from Edmonton, AB   2009-08-12

Recently got this 2 months ago, I have long hair half way down to my back with lots of layers, I can do my entire head in less than 20 minutes with beautiful curls. I can't believe I only paid 30 dollars for it, WHAT A STEAL!
