waste of money [SEP] thoroughly confused by the high ratings and pissed my mom bought this for me off my wish list for my bday and i likely cannot return itall this does is rip your hair out as you kink not curl or put waves in your hair it kinks and the little brush bristle things do not help smooth your hair out even if you just want to straighten it which it sucks at too it just rips strands out and creates frizz it hurts to use and you can hear it ripping your hair outthere is no smoothing affect the instructions it comes with are deceptively simple i did exactly as it said and it did nothing but ruin my hair for the day the videos on youtube are also deceptively simple this does not create curls or waves
