VS Sassoon Curl Secret Series Questions & Answers
VerifiedHi I have this curler but want to know how big the barrel is please
Hi this doesn’t seem to create a curl for me (and have followed instructions and watched online tutorials). It just seems to curl under at the end, rather than create a ringlet type curl? Have tried different settings and amounts of hair. Can you please help? Thank you

Hi I just got my VS sassoon 2 in 1 yesterday and I tried it out today and it worked the first time and then I turned it off and turned it back on but it won’t do anything but make this really high pitch squeezing sound from inside the handle. What could be the cause of this?
Hello I have just received mine today. It turns on and heats up but doesn't suck my hair in to do the curl. Is there a button I need to press or something?
Sounds like you have a faulty one. This same issue happened to me. The company asked me to send it back and they sent another out and the new one automatically sucked my hair in.
The instructions are confusing, but have the flat part facing your head and put a small strand of hair in then close it. It should suck your hair in. If not, check the settings on the curler or you may have a faulty one
What would be the size of the curl .. approximately? In comparison to beachwaver 3 diff Barrell sizes ?
got a vs sasoon for xmas 2018 have tried it twice and it has tangled and got my hair stuck in it both times i have no receipt and am totally unsatisfied with product what can you do for me?

Just got it for mother’s day and it won’t even turn on !?!??
Help! When I turn it on after about 10 seconds it makes a loud continuous beeping sound and the light flashes really quickly and it doesn’t work :(
Hi Guys
My wife’s secret curl machine is beeping really low. Before beeping was normal but in the last two uses is lower.
What could be the reason?
I used the VS Curl Secret and while I was using it it started to make a real screeching noise when it would suck the hair in. It keeps on making that noise even after I got all of the excess hairs out. What do I do?
is it easy for short thick hair?

I bought my new Curl Secret Multi Curl today and was so excited to use it. I got home read the instructions carefully,made sure my hair followed all the guidelines, set it to all the right settings then started curling my hair. It was great and worked a treat but when I had nearly finished my whole head it stopped sucking in my hair. I turned it off let it cool and tried again but it still wasn't sucking my hair in, the light wasn't flashing as it heated up and it didn't seem to be heating up very quickly.
What should I do?
Thanks, Sharni

Can you straighten your hair with this aswell?
This VS Sassoon is a smooth & wave curler VSP2662A but previous models are only curlers therefore more expensive. I am not sure how this one works, need to read instructions.
VSP2662A Two different styles created with one tool using the easy, revolutionary automatic styling technology. Choose beautiful, luscious waves or smooth, straight styles, at the flick of a switch.
Vsp2667A Perfect your look, with the option to create loose waves or more defined curls ( this model does not have a smooth option only curls and waves.

Hi,
My curler beeps after about 4 seconds every single time
am I doing something wrong?
It will beep when its finished it doesn't take very long, then release the hair. If you want longer, you can increase the time before it beeps, consult your instructions. The beeping is a safety measure, only need to curl hair which takes only a few seconds on such high heat, longer can suck moisture from hair.
Hi to assist you further with your enquiry would you please call Conair Customer Service 1800 650 263
No it beeps every 4-5 seconds to let yu know to OPEN the Curler to let your hair out.. so it Will NOT Burn Your Hair, so when it beeps, open it & Just let your hair OUT
My curler beeps and stops after 4/5 seconds regardless of what setting I have it on
it is normal after awhile there is no beeping sound? mine after awhile there is no beeping sound heard. i still can curl my hair and there is some smoke.
I would say it has fault, I would not be using it.
Check if still under warranty & contact VS Sassoon Australia

Hope this helps
Noraisah, I can't answer you question, I was so unhappy with this product I returned it the next day and swapped for another brand. It literally grabbed and damaged my hair after one use, I found that it didn't glide through easily at all.
Hi we are sorry to hear your styler is faulty... the beeps are a very important part to the styler as they let you know when to release the curl and will prevent your hair from being in the styler for too long.
To prevent your hair from being caught in the styler you should read and follow the instructions supplied with the styler very carefully.
Hair should be clean and well combed/brushed before using the styler so all knots or tangles are removed
Use on dry hair only and free from any kind of hairspray.
Section hair before styling using section clips.
Use sections of hair no more than 3cm wide , comb and slightly twist the hair to keep the section neat and together when placing in the styler
The open section of the styler should always face the scalp (head)
To make a claim against the warranty normal returns procedure for a faulty item is to take it back to the place of purchase, where the retailer will replace the styler for you on behalf of Vidal Sassoon. In this event, per the terms of the warranty you will need to present a receipt or invoice as your proof of purchase.
How long can u keep it in for? If kept on accidentally, does it click off automatically?
I do sometimes leave it in for a few seconds longer than the time recommmneded to achieve a tighter curl.
The instructions state AUTO SHUT OFF This appliance has an automatic shut off feature for added safety. If the appliance is switched on for more than 60 minutes continuously, it will automatically switch off. If you
wish to continue using the appliance after this time, simply slide the switch to off position
and then slide to the relevant setting to turn the power on.
SLEEP MODE
This appliance has an automatic sleep mode feature. If the appliance is not used for
more than 20 minutes the temperature will automatically drop down by 50°C. If you wish
to continue using the appliance after this time, simply close then release the handles
and it will return to the temperature setting you were using it on.
Can you use the curl secret on wet/damp hair or will it burn off?
I wouldn't recommend using on wet or damp hair as it may tangle and even burn your hair.
I would recommend using on dry hair only to ensure you get the perfect curl that holds for hours.
Is it normal for it to smoke while curling your hair it is it burning it?
Hi there, I haven't really noticed it smoking unless my hair has just freshly been dried and may still be slightly damp. I don't use any hair products so this may also be a factor if you see smoke whilst using it. I would say that if it was burning your hair then you would actually smell syngeing.
I hope I have helped.
Are they still for sale? I love mine but am thinking of replacing it before it ends its life.
Sold it ages ago for 20 bucks lol
