My sister owns a hair-dressing/beauty supply (wholesale) company, and is a hairdresser herself. It's rather more expensive, but she recommends the Rusk Mega-Curl (I think) at about $200 retail.

I only know this because I've been trying to source one for my daughter's Christmas present (you'd think a loving sister would let me have one free wouldn't you?).

Cheers,

Marina.

i think you can re-use them several times over years.

how much does curls cost in a hairdressers shop?

i don't know but i guess that if you use that thing about 3-4 times it's cheaper than the hairdresser.

who knows....sometimes you buy the cheapy, and then because it's bleep you then buy the good one later which in the end is more expensive.

sometimes the cheapies do....i have no idea, i had to google what a triple barrel is, but compared to the cost of having it done in a hairdressers shop it does not seem to be too bad.

I have had 2 different brands and took both back, they were hopeless.

One was close to $100 and the other about $60 was half price.

No amount of letting them get hot and then timing them to make sure it stayed on my hair long enough they did nothing.

I would like to try the $200 because it might have the power or oomph to be good.

I was told by one seller my hair wasn't long enough (how she would know when it was tied up in a bun) and the other told me my hair was too long!

hahahaha

maybe it's too hairy?

i can't be bothered with those things.

i find it amazing that ppl with curls buy straightenes and those with straight hair buy curlers....

then there are asians, indians and black people who would sell their mom for having a fair complexion and buy bleaching stuff for their skin while white people tan themselves and buy tanning sprays

I have very fair skin and don't bother trying to do anything to make it look darker and my hair is straight on top and curly underneath and sometimes I like to do something with it.

If you just pick up the hair on the top of your head with me that is straight and all the hair on the sides and back and ringletty (is that a word?)

My apologies - it's the Rusk Mira-curl (I said Mega-Curl before). You can google it for full details.

Cheers,
