Babyliss Curl Secret

Hola Dalimoos,

If you could look in my hair tool drawer you would be disgusted with how many different apparatus' I own that all do the same job!  But I am a sucker and when Babyliss released the Curl Secret.  I just knew it was something that was right up my alley, so for my birthday in October I asked for it.

Ok it does seem a bit gimmicky...you put a strand of hair in, it sucks it up and "tada" you have a perfectly formed curl!  But if you are someone that is useless at curling your hair with your average tongs or using heated curlers then this is the thing for you.

The instructions say that it should not be used for really long hair (hair no longer than your bust).  My hair is just on top of my shoulder so would say it is more on the short side than long.  The effect on me isn't really a curl but a wave, which I like but for this post I wanted to show you the effect on longer hair.  I used my daughter for this and as you can see her hair is at her shoulder blades.

It comes with 2 heat settings and 3 timer settings which gives you different tightness of curls.  For me I use the hottest heat setting and the longest timer setting but when I used this on my daughter I used the lowest heat and number 2 timer setting.

Once I had finished I waited for the hair to cool and then with my finger tips shook the hair as my daughter wanted a loose wave.  I really loved how it had turned out.

There are a couple of negative points for me and that is:

1.  The curl secret has taken some time to get used to because of having to keep the same side facing your head at all times so going round your head proves pretty tricky.  However, using it on my daughter was so much easier! 

2.  It is pretty pricey at £120 even though now I have used it I would say it is worth it, but to be honest it is easy for me to say that now as it was bought for me as a present for my birthday!

However, if you can look past my two negatives this is a pretty great piece of apparatus and it is one I have used continuously since getting it and if you can afford to get one or you have a birthday coming up then get it, you won't be disappointed!

Anyway my lovelies, until next time 

Ciao for now xxx
