Review: Remington Shine Revival Straightener *

 

I love appliances, so help me, I do! Given the choice, I would literally try every single hair straightener out there, and believe me, I'm trying to! Imagine my delight when I heard that there would be a new hair straightener on the market.

Let me just set the record straight (get it?) - I don't actually need to straighten my hair, but I love what a lot of them can do these days, from straightening to curling to adding a bit of extra flick to your hair.

Not only that, I also love that with technology improving all the time, these days, it only takes a little while for things to heat up before you can apply it to your hair, so you don't have to fret if you're desperately low on time.

Instead of just talking about it, let me show you what you can achieve in 10 minutes. You can go from somewhat unruly hair (which is actually very cute in a ponytail):

To straight and sleeker tresses like these:

So, what are the specifications of the little beauty that achieved this? The Remington Shine Revival hair straightener heats up in 15 seconds, going from between 140 degrees celsius to 230 degrees celsius. It also has an automatic safety shut off for peace of mind after 60 minutes of not being in use.

The swivel cord means that you can straighten with ease, You can also apparently use this on wet (not dripping) or dry hair, which is something I should try out. This also comes with a heat proof storage pouch and vent brush, so you can take it on the go with you! This even has worldwide voltage, which means that taking it with you is even easier. 

The best part of this is that it also has a set of ceramic plates infused with argan oil to help enhance shine! I would still use a shine agent with it, but this could at least help a little to get where you want to with your hair.

Don't forget we have Mother's Day coming up soon, so if your mum's on the market for a new straightener, this may be just the reminder for her to let her know that you're aware of her needs, and that you've done your research!

You can find this for $49.95 at the major retailers that stock Remington.
