VS Sassoon Wave Magic VSP2286A

The perfect wave. Love it – The best hair styling tool I have ever brought. I can't remember the exact amount of years I have owned the Wave Magic but I do know that it is the easiest and by far the best hair styling tool I have ever brought for beautiful waves!

Great quality everyday curling wand – I've had the wave magic for 5 years and it's still going strong! My hair is very long at the moment and I prefer a bigger curl than the wave magic can give with this length, however I still use it for everyday hairstyling. Worth it!

Go buy one! – I cannot exactly remember when I bought my Wave Magic but I have had it at least 18 months and it is still going strong. I absolutely love this thing. I have fine textured, just below shoulder length hair. This gives me beautiful curls OR waves, depending on what you do with it after (i.e brush it out of just finger comb). It is so versatile that I do not need another curling tool. I like the size of the curls too. I like that wavy boho look, not ringlets, so this is perfect for me.

My hair usually does not curl well with traditional clamp type curling wands. Wave Magic is different in that you wrap sections of hair around the barrel and you are starting the curl closer to the roots. THIS is so much better because you can get more heat and thus more lift/curl where you need it. Other curlers fry the ends of your hair first and then the bits near the roots are somewhat neglected, leaving you with this limp curl that drops so fast. Not to mention your hair is so much more prone to damage with those other curling wands.

I find the best technique is to sort of hold the Wave Magic with the right hand to do the left side of the hair and vice versa. And point the wand downwards with the cool tip pointing at your shoulder. Wrap hair around it going away from your face. I looked up You Tube and practiced and now I can do all of my hair in 20 minutes.

The wand heats up very quickly and there are a number of heat settings. I use a low 170 degrees C setting most of the time. The wand comes with a glove to use to protect from burns. The one thing that annoys me is the placement of the power switch. I find it too easy to hit it by accident while curling! But that is my only negative comment. I would highly recommend this to ladies with shoulder length hair. I have used this on bob-length hair but you couldn't use it on hair any shorter because you need enough to wrap around the wand! This is not as suitable for hair that is very long either. Although you could wave your ends with it... Basically, if you have medium hair and think your clamp style curling wand sucks, give Wave Magic a try! Easy to use, quick heat time, long-lasting curls or waves Poor placement of the power switch

Perfect as curler or waver !!! The best tool I've come across !!! – Easy and effective to use with the heat protective glove and the cool tip. Love the temperature adjustment display as it lets you know just how hot the temperature is on your hair. Was actually looking for a curler when I came across this and I find that it works just as well as a curler even though its named wave magic. Creates more of a curl but also a wave with lower temperature and if you run your fingers through it more. Curl magic should be just as amazing ! Great colour and design, simple and effective and amazing results for both curls and waves

Love it!!! Goodbye hair curler and straightener!! – I have been looking for something like this for a long time!! My hair is naturally pretty wavy and out of control. I wanted a tool that would make my waves look a little less messy. I have tried using hair rollers and hair curling tools but have never been completely satisfied with the result. If you want a natural look that only takes minutes this is the perfect tool! Instead of blow drying & straightening my hair every day to tame it... i now have this little beauty!! Easy to use, you can adjust the temperature, comes with a glove so you don't burn yourself, takes no time at all!! Also 3 year warranty Don't have any cons! It is a little pricey but well worth it! : )
