Home appliances for hair care are becoming more complex, more functional and more convenient to use. Today, getting a perfect hairstyle without going to a stylist is not difficult if you have a special installer curling iron at your disposal. By delicate manipulations with this device, you can create a real masterpiece in the form of a luxurious hairstyle. The Tulip curling iron also belongs to such devices, reviews of which confirm its effectiveness and reliability. However, certain nuances of operation can still spoil the impression of this device, so it is better to familiarize yourself with them in advance.
Device Overview
In a sense, the Tulip model of the curling installer can be called revolutionary. Babyliss supplied the device with an open drum, allowing it to perform hair operations in just 3 seconds. A feature of the model is precisely the automatic work with curls, thanks to which a woman practically frees her hands and can simply observe the process. The efficiency and high speed of curling curls are due to the fact that the Tulip hair curler has a special quick heating system. Moreover, the temperature range is quite wide, which makes it possible to work with different types of hair. The heating element is securely hidden in the body of the curling iron, which eliminates the risk of getting a burn.
Hair preparation
Start working on a curl should only be provided that the hair is thoroughly washed and dried. It is very important that no styling agents are applied to them. Further, the curls open, the field of which they should be combed. It is necessary to form separate strands so that their thickness varies within 12-15 mm. If you plan to create more rigid and elastic strands, then their thickness should be minimal. In any case, curling too massive curls will not allow you to get a good result. By the way, a special hair separator, which is equipped with the Tulip curling iron, will help in the formation of strands of optimal size. Reviews note that this device is more convenient than any comb - again, in a few seconds the separator will help to make the strands of the desired thickness. Then you can begin to curl, starting with the lower curls. Then gradually move to the upper strands, curling hair in a circle - from the sides of the head to the back of the head. After curling, use a styling tool.
Spiral waving and smoothing
Many curling irons provide the creation of curled curls, however, in the Tulip device, the process of performing this operation is as easy as possible. The user only needs to select a lock of hair according to the technique described above and “charge” it into a special cylinder. It is necessary to place the strand so that it bifurcates and allows the drum to delicately wind the hair onto the cylinder. Then it remains only to wait until the Tulip automatic curling iron does its job. This takes 3 to 20 seconds, depending on the structure of the hair.
It has its own features and the function of smoothing curls. To perform this operation, you need to bring the strand to the side of the cylinder, and then firmly press the hair. Further movements are made by a heated cylinder along the entire length of the hair up and down. Gradually, even elastic strands will begin to take on a straight shape. It is worth noting that the developers made sure that the Tulip curling iron installer had a thermal effect only on the hair and in an acceptable temperature range.
What hair should not be used with a curling iron?
Despite the fact that the curling iron is quite versatile and copes with different types of hair, there are significant restrictions on its use with hair extensions of artificial origin. The device can only be used with natural hair, which, however, can also be extended. In this case, much depends on the method of building. If the stitching method was used, then the Tulip curling iron can be used as a curling tool along the entire length up to the roots. If the building was carried out by gluing, then curling can be done only to the level where foreign locks are fixed to natural curls.
Safety instructions
One of the main advantages of this curling iron is its thoughtful safety. However, much in this regard still depends on the user. First of all, you should protect the scope of the device from places such as a bathtub, shower, sinks and various containers with water. Also, the Tulip curling iron is not designed for use by children. At least, children under the age of 8 should restrict access to the device. Actually, storage in a safe and secure place and the complete exclusion of contact with water are the main requirements that should be followed in the operation of the curling iron. Otherwise, the requirements for it are similar to the recommendations of manufacturers of other electrical appliances.
The cost of a curling iron
On average, curling irons designed for curling and straightening hair are estimated at 1,500 - 2,000 rubles. A lot in prices depends on the configuration, manufacturer, technical parameters and functionality. Against this background, the Tulip curling iron, the price of which varies from 3,000 to 3,500 rubles, stands out due to many characteristics. The relatively high cost of this model is fully justified by the quality of operations, the speed of their execution, ergonomics and safety.
Also on the market you can turn to the segment of used devices, where prices are much lower. It is difficult to judge regarding the decline in the quality of the device itself after initial operation, but given the manufacturer’s thorough approach to the development of this device, there is reason to rely on maintaining the performance that the used Tulip curling iron will still have. The price in this case may be 2,000 - 2,500 rubles.
Model reviews
Positive statements about the operational properties of this curling iron leave the most demanding fashionistas. Especially women are captivated by the ease of the device and the convenience of handling it. In terms of functionality and performance, the model has no competitors, so there is nothing to compare it with. But there are almost no obvious critical responses, which once again confirms the high level of quality with which the Tulip curling iron was made. Reviews separately praise additional curling accessories. In particular, the separator is a seemingly elementary attribute, but only a product with carefully thought-out construction and design can provide the same convenience in the process of forming strands.
Conclusion
A feature of the Babyliss curling iron is an organic combination of professional features and the ergonomics inherent in home appliances. The technological complexity with which the device is made is invisible to users. Girls and women deal with the simplest controls that the Tulip curling iron is equipped with. Reviews not without reason emphasize the ease of management, which at the same time does not limit the optional device. Every detail is really thought out in the model, because its working elements deal with the most delicate organs of the body.
