miniPRO Wave Envy

Beautyheaven review, Discomilk says:

I was lucky enough to get this beautorium! My hair is already naturally wavy, but I wanted this to give me more styled looking waves in a ponytail, or in the front sections of my hair where I can sometimes I have frizz. Since I have a lot of hair, I only use this when I have a pony tail, or on my fringe that's growing out. I find that my hair holds the waves all day, as long as I don't run my fingers though it or brush it out. I find that its great to use on a pony tail and it gives it more volume. I love using this, and its easy to use!

 

Wave Envy

Awesome Beach Waves

I received this as part of my winning Glosscars Pack....Thanks BH :)
I have used it several times now and just LOVE it.

It is easy to use, heats up fast and gives great results. I have two young girls so have created waves for them too and they just adore it.
You can give soft waves or stronger style ones depending on hard you press the tongs together. The wave lasts all day and even a couple of days on the kids.
A great machine if you are after beach waves couldn't think of a better one :)

Michelle, Parkes, NSW

I was happy with the Wave Envy because it was easy to use, the results were quick and they lasted all day!  I found the wave envy much easier to create long lasting waves,  then when I use my ghd irons or my remington heated rollers.  I would definitely recommend this product to my friends because it give lasting results with little effort and is very reasonably priced for such a well-made product.

Fiona, Warrnambool, VIC

The Wave Envy gave me an awesome beachy look that looked like I had just been at the beach! It was quick and easy to use and I found that it wasn't too heavy or hard to use. I think that the Wave Envy performs better than other previous brands that I have used because it has updated technology and  one of the best ceramic finishes I've ever used. 

Lynn, South Bexley, NSW

I managed to achieve very defined curls, very easily (which is amazing, since I have trouble hair that REFUSES to curl, except when using BOTH curling iron and rollers). I also loved how the Wave Envy was so quick and easy to use -  you hardly needed to read the brief instructions included, it was just clamp and go.  Im very impressed at how easy it was to achieve curls in hair that are usually so "curl resistant". The Wave Envy actually brings out the shine in my hair. Thanks to the ceramic plates, I easily achieved defined waves with a soft, dappled shine!!!

Terese, Sunshine West, VIC

I’m so happy with the Wave Envy because it didn’t take long all to style my hair.  I love different hair styles, I often get bored with the same style!  I like the idea of even heat distribution for silky smooth finish and of course the easy action pressing the hair in between the plates and barrels.  Also the 30 second heat makes the world of difference when your getting ready for work.  I liked the alligator action like a flat iron and the barrels to make the waves; so much better than the 3-prong product I have used as the other product was uncomfortable to use.  I love the fact that the Wave Envy has 3 heat settings, my hair lasted 2 days with this styling tool!  I have straight hair and it makes my hair look very wispy, also nice when I go to the beach.  Great looking surfing chick!

 

Big Hair Hot Rollers

Emily, Docklands, VIC says:

The Big Hair Hot Rollers gave very bouncy, natural results. With my mid-length, straight hair, the roller size was perfect for creating curls that were not too tight and they had a natural fall and shape. With the Big Hair Hot Rollers, I was able to create loose curls and waves, and found the roller size and heat intensity perfect for doing this in a way that curling tongs cannot.

The surface of the rollers was smooth and the hair glided well. The size was an excellent mid-size that was easy to handle. I found the plastic edging stayed cool, even when the roller surface was hot, making it comfortable and safe to use. The super clips were my favourite aspect of the product. They were great quality and very strong. I would recommend this product to my friends as a classic product that is a great alternative to a curling tong, to create a different result.

Erin, Oxenford, QLD, says:

The Big Hair Hot rollers created soft, wavy and voluminous curls. The clips are easy to use and the rollers are nice and big to hold. The heat ready indicator made it easy to determine when the rollers were ready to use, once the indicator had turned white.

Curl Magic

Amela, Perth, WA says:

I have already recommended it to my friends! I use the Curl Magic 2 - 3 times a week and the curls are well defined, with a lovely shape. It's so easy and quick to use, I just wrap the hair around the barrel for approximately 15 seconds and the results are perfect, sleek, smooth curls with no flyaways. I like the conical barrel because I am able to curl all my hair all the way to the ends and only need to curl each section once plus it creates a lovely, wavy curl. The curler heats up quickly and doesn't snag my hair because there's no clamp, unlike other curlers. Once you've tried the product, you realise what great value for money it is!

Heidi, Marangaroo, WA says:

The Curl Magic creates natural results for day time and glamorous results for night, wearable curls for any occassion! It creates curls better than previous brands I have used because I have stubborn, straight hair yet curls were achieved so quickly and they also lasted a lot longer! Most of my friends have straight hair that is difficult to curl but now they're convinced too! It's a lot easier to style hair because it's clamp-free and it heats up really quickly too.

miniPRO™ Curl Magic

Femail.com.au Review:

Curl Magic miniPRO™ - How great is this, finally a mini styler that can fit into your handbag. Brilliant

Big Hair Root Boost

Blogger - Beauty and Lace:

Flat hair is out and volume and texture is in, and it is no wonder many of us are opting for hair extensions just for a little extra thickness. If your hair is a bit too skinny for your liking, the Big Hair Root Boost will do the trick.

Emiliano, VS's style expert said:

"I love the Big Hair Root Boost and it's become an essential part of my hairdressing kit. I do a lot of catwalk hair and I can quickly and easily create fullness and padding to bulk out even the finest hair. This means I can create everything from the humble bun through to the more complicated French roll and chignon".

Veronika, Bondi Junction, NSW says:

The Big Hair Root Boost gave me lift at the roots instantly without having to spend lots of time styling. It's a quick way to boost my flat hair. I have limited time and my hair is always tied up but I was able to transform to ‘Big Hair' in 10 minutes before going out. My hair had fullness and was silky and smooth. 

Tina, Eight Mile Plains, QLD says:

The Big Hair Root Boost can really give you a natural, volumised look. It gave me instant root lift, fullness and volume without frizz. It's easy to use and I'm happy with the performance, it provided me with luscious, volumised hair! After one round of ‘crimps' my hair has more volume and my fringe is magically less lifeless!  

Sharon, Woodvale, WA says:

The Big Hair Root Boost with ceramic coated plates left my hair silky and smooth. It gave me lift at the roots with fullness and I was happy with the performance. It was easy to control and handle. I will use it in the future to style my hair and recommend it to my friends.

Heather, Trott Park, SA says:

The Big Hair Root Boost gave me instant root lift. It was easy and quick to use, especially as I only had to style the underneath section of my hair. It's good value for money and I will keep using it to style my hair. 

 

Wave Magic™

Femail.com.au Review:

VS Sassoon Wave Magic™- This really is magic, so easy to use, creating soft gorgeous hollywood waves in no time.

Kirsten, Toowoomba, QLD says:

I can't speak highly enough of the Wave Magic!  It's easy to use and a range of different styles can be achieved in less than 15 minutes including smooth, defined waves, soft tousled waves and beachy waves.  I like the oval shaped barrel because my hair easily wrapped around it with no slipping and I wasn't left with any kinks at the ends of my hair, which usually happens with other curling tongs with a clamp.  I think the Wave Magic is great and I would definitely choose it over my ghd because the results are much better and achieved in half the time!  I already have friends and family lined up to have their hair styled with the Wave Magic!

Sarah, Montrose, VIC says:

The Wave Magic gave me a beautiful structured messy wave, very beachy looking, love it!  It was easy to use and so quick at styling my entire head, I could do it before going to work without taking any extra time.  I would recommend it to my friends because it's great value, easy to use, quick, and creates great waves!

Ling, Doncaster, VIC says:

I was happy with the results of the Wave Magic, it created random waves and stayed put all day long, even without hairspray!  I liked the oval barrel and the wave shape it created, it's so fast and easy to use.  I liked that I could select the temperature to suit my hair type and I think it's good value for money.

Amber, Cooranbong, NSW says:

I found I could achieve different wave styles, smooth and defined, and it was a really natural, soft wave - beautiful!  The oval shape of the waver is so easy to wind hair around and it took me under 10 minutes to use; even quicker with the heat glove!  Yay, best ever!  I will definitely recommend it to my friends because they all try GHD curls and this is so much quicker and you can achieve a proper, beautiful wave; I will be using the Wave Magic from now on and two of my friends are buying one too!

You Curl

Beverly C MBE, Top Celebrity Hairdresser says:

“Hairdressers normally use straightening irons to create different types of waves and curls. Now you can create the same type of beautiful curls at home with ease thanks to this special curling styler.”

Jaime-Lee, Glebe, NSW says:

After using the You Curl my hair had summer, beachy waves and it felt healthy all over! Plus I used it as a straightener, it was easier than switching to another product, and it worked well.  It performs better than previous brands I have used because it's sleek, nice to use on the hair and it's not too hot. I would recommend it to my friends becasue it's a great product that's easy to use!

Sharon, Eaglehawk, VIC says:

"My hair is dead straight so I was happy with the You Curl because it left my hair with soft, tousled curls. It was lovely to be able to have hair that looked different and not have to spend a lot of money. It performs better that other brands I have used because the You Curl heated up so quickly, very impressive. I am recommending it to my friends as it was so easy to use, very straight forward thanks to the instructional DVD, and with great results. I think the product is fantastic!"

Ultimate Salon Curler (32mm)

Beverly C MBE, Top Celebrity Hairdresser

“3D hair is very in and it’s here to stay, both on long and short styles. It doesn’t matter what type of curl you have right now, as long as you have a curl.  A curling iron like the Nano Ultimates will give a defined, spiral curl that’s sure to turn heads.”

Ultimate Salon Curler (19mm)

Alysha, Lane Cove NSW says:

I was happy with the results of the Ultimate Salon Curler because it achieved luscious, soft tousled curls quickly and easily. It heats up quickly, the temperautre adjustment was fantastic and it's comfortable to use with the non-slip handle. It's good value for money with an excellent warranty, I would definitely recommend it to my friends! I love it!

Ultimate Salon Setter

Joanna, West Pennant Hills NSW says:

I was happy with the results of the Ultimate Salon Setter because it allowed me to achieve wavy, loose curls with volume - which is what I'm lacking as I have quite thin hair. The three different sized rollers are great - you can achieve a range of looks from tight, loose curls to waves and full volume with only one styler! Plus, the 12 variable temperature settings are great because it allowed me to adjust the temperature depending on my hair thickness. It's good value for money and I'd definitely recommend this to my friends!

 

Beverly C MBE, Top Celebrity Hairdresser

"Lush glamorous waves and curls can be a great look for evening and special occasions. Heated rollers set right from the root will give a glamorous Hollywood look."

Hair Designer Airstyle

Beverly C MBE, Top Celebrity Hairdresser

"The VS Sassoon Hair Designer Airstyle™ is ideal as it straightens and dries in one handy unit. Perfect for achieving a sleek, sexy and glamorously- polished finish."

Sharna, Victoria Point, QLD says:

The Hair Designer Airstyle was powerful enough to dry my hair. It dried and straightened my hair far better than just blow drying it straight and so much quicker to use. I didn't need to use a brush, dryer and straightener - all I needed was the Hair Designer Airstyle! 

Waves & Curls Salon Styler

Melanie, Innisfail, QLD says:

After using the triple barrel waver the curls in my hair looked so naturally soft, and I find it so convenient that I can now create my own beachy waves at home. The 19mm curling tong attachment gave my hair a messy, touseld effect and brings my locks back to life, giving me confidence in my appearance! It's so easy to use to create so many different styles with just one product. I can now have some added body and volume, tousled, beachy waves or defined curls!

Hot Air Brush n Style

Fiona, Narre Warren, VIC says:

I just love it! My hair felt wonderful after using the Hot Air Brush n Style! My hair was smooth and soft with volume and no frizz at all! It was powerful enough to dry my hair and it's just so quick and easy to use, the handle size is just right! The natural bristle brush made my hair more straight without frizz and the thermal brush attachment made my hair look so silky, soft and manageable. It's excellent value for money and performs better than previous brands I have used as it's a high quality made product. I have seen such awesome results that I can't keep it a secret!

Total Crimp

Sarah, Derrimut, VIC says:

The Total Crimp gave me a beach-like look! It created volume in my hair and I used it to funk up my style by adding random crimped sections. It gave me a loose crimp with a smooth, shiny finish and when I wanted it more deifned, I pressed a little firmer and held it on the hair for a little longer. It performs better than previous brands I have used because of the variable temperature settings and lasting style results. It's easy to use, heats up fast and I love the the different turquiose green colour that makes me want to use it when I'm feeling like a different, funky hair style! It's great value for money too!
