good for thicker hair [SEP] this was okay but i think it would work better on thicker hair my hair is fine i agree with other reviewers that it is very easy to hit the off button accidentally and shut the darn thing off no automatic shutoff either which would have been a positive addition i may have goofed by ordering the inch barrel a smaller barrel might work better on fine straight hair the price and delivery were good my orders through amazon are usually prompt and in good condition this was no exception
