What customers say about "Key Specs"
Babyliss Pro Nano Titanium (BABNT150S) Spring Curling Iron
  • Is a high-heat capacity and 450 degrees seemed to be it.
  • Definitely great curls and it has a long cord.
  • Cord is nice and long. Overall I'm super happy with this purchase.
  • MY favorite curling iron, easy to use and heats up quickly with long cord!
  • I seriously have doubts that it heats up to 450 degrees.
CHI ARC Curling Iron
  • I love how quickly this curling iron heats up and curls my hair just as quick. The curls last for 3 days.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Babyliss Pro Nano Titanium (BABNT150S) Spring Curling Iron
  • Perfect barrel size to get a nice curl. Curls last a long time if done properly.
  • Perfect size curls, not too small and frizzy but not too large where they fall out in a few hours.
  • Nice universal size ball and quality rubber. I would recommend this product.
  • Also, it is light-weight, which I love because my arms, hands and wrists don't get fatigued.
  • Love it its light weight and does a excellent job.

What customers say about "Details"
Babyliss Pro Nano Titanium (BABNT150S) Spring Curling Iron
  • It gives me big waves that lest for a few days, on a relatively low heat settings.
  • The heat settings are accurate and the curling heats up very quickly too.
  • Temperature control is easy to use.
  • The temperatures are perfect, it's easy to handle.
  • It has a temperature wheel on the side, so easy to get the right heat.
  • Be careful not to use full heat setting at first as it will burn your hair.
  • The cool tip is very small so I am constantly burning my fingers.
  • However, the one thing that I don't like about it is the cool tip at the end. It's awkward to hold and turn because of pointed end.
CHI ARC Curling Iron
  • Easy to use, and I like the ability to adjust temperature to avoid damage to hair.
  • Has a great little timer to prevent you from burning your hair!!!
  • The best curling iron! I always use it when I need to do my hair formal for events. I don’t use the automatic rotation too much. Highly recommend.

What customers say about "Power"
Babyliss Pro Nano Titanium (BABNT150S) Spring Curling Iron
  • The cord rotates at the bottom so that it will not wrap around the handle of the iron.
  • The cord is 360 degree swivel and long enough to maneuver the iron around your head.
  • The handle is comfortable and the cord's 360 degree swivel at the end of the handle allows for ease when twisting the curling iron in my hair.
  • It has a long cord for easy access to outlets, swivels very nicely, heats fast, etc.
  • Sounds trivial but it's the cheaper thin cord plus it doesn't swivel freely like most so it gets tangled up when curling your hair.
