Review title is 10 out of 10 do NOT recommend [SEP] I had a lot of hope for this curling iron because I love curling my hair but I'm not the best at it, so this looked like a great option. Unfortunately, it fell far short of my hopes and dreams.<br /><br />The hair clips into a little clip at the bottom of the barrel. At first I thought it was genius, then I used it. I lost so much hair from that clip - my hair kept hooking onto it and pulling the hair out. And honestly, it didn't curl very well (my hair is just past my shoulders). I had to bring out my regular curling iron in order to fix the mess-up that occurred because of this curling iron.<br /><br />I will say that the fact that it turns automatically would be nice for someone with a disability or a difficult time moving, but for the average person? 10 out of 10 do not recommend.
