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

Rotating main handle on Marcel Irons can also be used as a fixed position handle by simply flipping a switch. Top handle also rotates.

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

Reviewer: Jessica from Camp Lejeune, NC USA   2009-10-12

Let me say this. I am not a stylist by no means. I can barely do my own hair. But here recently I was tasked out to do my friends hair for her wedding. Was I fretting it, you better believe it. So I had borrowed this product from my stylist friend. Well, I decided to curl my hair for the wedding, which is long and super fine, its really hard to keep a curl. This curling iron kept all day long. Not only did it do a great job on my hair, the bride's was gorgeous! Once again I am an amateur and had an hour of practice with it, and yet here I was doing hair for a wedding. I recommend this product to anyone. The handle took a minute to get used to, but once I figured it out, I had no problem. And the bride's hair, looked professionally done!! Kudos to me!

Great Product not for everyone
Reviewer: kate from Peoria, IL   2009-09-10

I love this iron. I began Cosmetology school with it and still use it....in fact it is the only iron I will use. It is ergonomically design for a stylist to use on a client so we keep our wrists healthy...In Carpal Tunnel Here! But, unless you are trained to use this tool don't. You will burn yourself. Hurt your joints, or worse hurt your hair. Stick to your high quality spring load and for special days go to a cosmo school or a salon for a good curl with this iron. I hear more complaints on this product because people don't know how to use it properly than I do actual problems with the product....aahhhmmm....there's a reason why it is called professional.

Awesome Curling Iron
Reviewer: anonymous from CA   2009-04-19

As a cosmetology student i definetly recomend this product to any professional or individual who wants to learn to use it the proper way. However if you do not know how to use it I do not suggest trying it out unless your willing to put the time to learning it properly.

Takes Some Time Getting Use To.

I barrowed my sisters hot tools curling iron , yeah i burnt myself the first couple of times, because i wasn't use to the whole bar thin and the twriling handle. once i got use to it i fell in love. i LOVED the way my hair would curl even after i straightend it, it would still curl. so i asked my mom to buy me one of my own, and its on its way! cant wait till it comes!!
