Hot Tools Pro Artist 24K Gold Crimping Iron | For Light Textured Crimps and Volume (1 in)

I have PCOS-induced hair thinning. And have struggled with loving my hair for a while now. I bought this crimper to add volume to my roots. And it does just that with wonderful results. This is my first crimper ever. Compared to teasing and texture sprays, with this crimper, my hair holds the volume and texture longer. For context, my hair is naturally curly and wavy, and thus holds texture, but lacks volume. So I drench my hair with a heat protectant, blow dry it straight, and then crimp the roots of the lower layers. Works like a charm. I love the body it gives - it looks more natural and not helmet-y. I have also crimped all my hair with this crimper, and not just the roots, and luuuuuuved the volume and texture it created, which is wonderful for updos and braided hairstyles. I slept on it, applied scalp serums, etc. for two days from crimping without losing volume. ALSO, this creates micro crimps. Which makes the texture look more natural - that is if that is the look you are going for. I have medium-thickness hair and thus get good results at 330 degrees. The included instructions give you info about temperature recommendations. It heats up within a minute. I was inspired to buy this device after I saw the $150 waffle-iron-looking root texturizer. And watched a lot of YouTube videos before committing to a crimper. And I'm very happy that I did. As I mentioned before I have wanted to love my hair desperately for a long time now. And to think that it was just this simple has me reeling with happiness. This will help me hold a better attitude towards myself while I work at re-growing some of my hair back. It adds just about 5 extra minutes to my styling routine - but with mega payback. Love it!

Perfect little tool to add texture and volume to hair. I use it in lower layers so the crimping isn’t actually visible but it helps cover my extensions.

I'm using this at the roots under the top layer of hair to give my hair lift and volume. It works SO well. I would never have thought to do this but saw a video on Instagram and decided to give it a try. I've tried colonizing spray and gel and mousse and I've tried teasing and so many products to get some volume and to calm a cowlick. Nothing has worked like this crimper. Very happy.

I bought this a few months ago on a recommendation from my hair dresser. She uses the more expensive Sam Villa version, but this one works exactly the same for significantly less money. I use it every day on my super fine hair to give it volume at the roots. It works perfect and does exactly what I needed to do. The crimps will last until you wash your hair. My reason for giving it four stars is a few items: first, it does not support dual voltage, and I travel quite a bit internationally, so this is a problem. Second, it does not have an auto shut off feature. The crimper gets very hot, and there has been more than one occasion I have accidentally left it on after going to work. An auto shut off would just be a good safety feature. Third, I find the 8 foot cord for my home use a bit cumbersome. I would prefer a slightly shorter cord. Regardless, I highly recommend this product to everyone I know with very fine, limp hair like me. I do like that it heats up fast and has multiple temp settings. I also like that that it doesn't get so hot that I am able to hold the end with the plates to press the crimp faster and deeper. I use it for only a few minutes each day, that makes a huge difference in how my hair looks.

Heats up fast. Works great. Easily adds volume where you need it. I crimp a section of my hair only, from root to mid shaft right at my crown. I lift the top layer of hair. Crimp the section underneath. Then lay the top down over it again to hid the crimped hair. No one can see it. And this helps add so much volume in that area without teasing. If your hair can hold a curl well, you won't need styling products either. I didn't like to tease because I didn't like having knots or hair spray in my hair. With this, I don't need either. I can also sleep on it and it still is fluffy the next day. It keeps my hair from looking oily (crimped hair does not stick together) in between shampoos. I can have more volume and fresher looking hair longer. Why have I just learned of this?!?!

If you have thin hairs like mine, spend average 20 mins blow drying your hair every morning to get more volume, get this hair iron and save yourself from the misery. I saw other expensive hair iron for volume on Fb and decided to purchase that specific product. After reviewing Youtube videos by professional hair stylists for hours, I decided to get this one instead. Works like a charm and now I can save so much time and no more hassle for more volume!! It is easy to use and heats up pretty quickly. And it looks fantastic when you are doing updo hair styles with so much volume, too! I have used other hot tools curling hair irons, and it was recommended by my hair stylist, works perfectly after years of daily use. It is just a great product with affordable prices.

This is one wobbly, cheap feeling tool. Even if it would have done what I wanted it to, I probably still wouldn’t have kept it. It just felt so cheap , all the way around. Flimsy and wobbly. Nope

Such good quality!

The heat-up time is impressively quick, and the adjustable temperature settings cater to various hair types. The consistent heat distribution ensures that every section gets the perfect amount of crimping, leaving my hair looking professionally styled. The design is sleek and user-friendly. The tool is lightweight, making it easy to maneuver, and the swivel cord adds an extra layer of convenience. It's evident that Hot Tools prioritized both performance and comfort in the design. I appreciate the versatility of this tool. Whether I want to add texture to a full head of hair or create subtle accents in specific sections, the Micro Crimped tool delivers every time. It's become my go-to for elevating everyday styles and adding a touch of glam to special occasions.

Súper buena y práctica. Llegó en perfectas condiciones y a tiempo. Soy peinadora profesional y la utilizo mucho.

Okay, let's be honest! In 2020, these are not the trend, ever. Except, this crimper is for volume or the odd hair show stylist. I'm telling you, seriously this is it. It's gets freaking hot and crimps hair fast and efficienly with very little pressure. The plates are well made and have a simple .5 mm give in the spring so when you clamp the hair, it really grabs and doesn't make you squeeze, no white knuckles here. So buy this guy and get volume or crimp for extra security for your clip in hair, which is really important when you want to feel like a Goddess! Great value. Free Advice.

Tiene una excelente calidad y material resistente

Al inicio tenía dudas de adquirirla por el precio bajo. Pero la verdad que superó mis expectativas. Es muy buena, tiene regulador de temperatura, también es bastante ligera y delgada. Calienta bastante rápido. La verdad si vale mucho la pena, además de que es bastante barata. Si te dedicas a los peinados profesionalmente, esto es un 100/100.
