Remington Keratin Protect Intelligent Hair Straightener - Heat Sensor measures hair moisture levels and adapts to the optimum temperature - Plates are infused with Keratin & Almond oil, S8598

Great straighteners have no complaints. They work really well on my hair and helps contain frizz. Not too sure on the whole keratin thing as heat damages hair regardless of products but I really like these. I also love the case it comes with

My old GHD IV had clapped out and I was dithering between shelling out for a new one (120 eur just to replace with the same 10+ year old model, not even upgrading to a new version) as I know that GHD has always been pretty much the gold standard in quality for straighteners. Regardless, it was killing me to fork over that much so I made a snap decision based on the reviews of this and the fact that at the time it was reduced on Amazon to maybe 50 euro? No sooner had I pressed the buy button than the buyer's remorse began - "buy cheap buy twice" etc etc. Well! I am happy to say that this has 100% been an upgrade to my old GHD. For information, I have medium thickness wavy hair with a tendency to frizz - it is not super tight and curly and takes heat well. Some of the main points of note that I am delighted with:1. it takes about 5 mins to straighten my hair to poker straight and it stays pretty straight for a few days; the odd wave here and there if is humid etc but largely only needs to be straightened once for 2/3 days2. Heat settings - the available heat settings are an upgrade from the GHD which I believe only goes to 180 celsius. I use this at 200 and the added heat and the plate quality means my wavy hair is straight in one stroke, reducing the heat exposure. I believe it has the capacity to go higher too for hair with more resistance!3. Plates - there is NO drag on these plates. The feeling of it going through your hair is so smooth compared to my old GHD that I thought maybe I didn't have enough hair in the plate of something and that it couldn't possibly be straightening it as there was no "pull" on the hair.4. Breakage/hair damage - used to have a lap full of broken hair after straightening with the GHD. There is of course still some hair fall here as you are using a heated product but nothing by comparison - I assume this is down to the lack of drag on the hair from the plates and the fact that with the higher heat you need to go over the sections less.Finally re the keratin/rose oil option - I 100% thought this was a load of markety waffle (how could this be in a straightener) but it definitely does do something - for me it isn't really necessary as the oil weighs down my hair type but there is certainly SOMETHING happening on this setting - I would imagine it would class for drier, curlier hair types to protect and reduce frizz. I looked a little like I had oiled my head but I can't dispute that it definitely does what it says on the tin!All in all - v impressed. Have had it for a few months now so the last test will be the longevity compared to the GHD, which to be fair, is the Nokia 3310 of straighteners.

Came in handy and very hot. Still using it after 2 years of buying it. Worth every penny of the cost.

My GHDs broke so I got these as a temp replacement but to be honest, they're just as good as my GHDs so I'll just stick with these.

I use this product at 180 degrees which is still very hot for thick, shoulder length and unruly hair like mine. I think any hotter, then my hair would start sustaining damage. I previously used ghd straighteners which did end up damaging parts of my hair and making it look lanky and flat.While both straighteners add a certain shiny sheen to my hair, the Remington seems to enable my hair to retain its natural bounce by the handy adjustable temp setting. I would say don’t use it at more than 180 degrees unless you are going on a night out and need the style to hold a bit longer. I have seen first-hand the damage to my own hair through hot styling products. An occasional use of the very hot setting I imagine would be okay, but I can feel the heat emitting from this device at just 180, so I haven’t used the hottest setting yet.You can also lock the temperature if needed. Although, I never have these on for long enough to do so.It does require patience if you want to achieve wavy or other fancy styles (approx 15-20 minutes), but for my purpose to have smoother hair, the Remington does the trick. I have been complimented by others thinking I went to the salon.On the whole, I am really glad I went for this product. I’ve only had it a few weeks, but it’s been easy on my hair (and wallet!) so far.

They are brilliant straightners for the money this is my second pair would definitely buy them again.

I needed to replace my GHD ones as they are old but wasn’t sure which to buy. I saw these and read the reviews so thought I’d try them.Wow was I impressed. Love the shape of the blades and the choice of heat settings. They left my bleached hair shiny and so so soft. I have a shortish Bob and it looked amazing. I’m absolutely delighted with them. Highly recommend them

excellent straighteners.after less than 2 years, they now turn themselves off when used. shamethey’re relatively lightweight and easy to holdmulti functions help with different tasks.
