I just got done using this item for the first time. It's amazing! I can't put my finger on exactly *why* this works so well. Is it the ceramic? Maybe the fact that it is a marcel? The fact that it heats up *so well* and STAYS heated the entire time? Whatever it is, I cut my curling time by *at least* half! There is not a "cool tip" so you can grip the top of the iron. And I'm sure that I'll get faster with practice. It's definitely not the same as a spring, but I seem to have more control over my curling. But it's not impossible... right now I have a broken right hand, which is also the hand I use to curl my hair. The ceramic really helped my hair feel healthier. Styling tip: take a chunk of hair that you want to curl. Put the iron close to your scalp and drag it to the halfway point of the chunk. Curl it... therefore, only the first half (from your scalp to mid-chunk) curls. Then curl the second half, but don't touch your ends. Then just hit the heat on the ends for just a short time. This way, you aren't frying them! It's a professional technique. Don't forget to use hair products that work with heat tools!
Best curling iron I have had

So far I love it. I have the 1" and the 2". As soon as the 3/4" barrel is back in stock I am going to purchase that as well. They do get very hot - so if you are not really good at using a curling iron I would not recommend it. You can burn yourself very easily.
the best curling iron

The Hot Tools Ceramic is the best I have ever used. I purchased one and liked so well I purchased the second one to have for travel.

This curling iron creates perfect curls every time in half the time of regular metal irons. I'm so glad I bought this product; it's excellent!!

This marcel iron is A-1 EXCELLENT!!! I have used many curlers over the years but none that makes curls as smooth and silky as this one. It is a great buy and I highly recommend it. I would also like to see this available in the 5/8 inch size and I would buy it also.
soo worth it

This is by far the best curling iron I've ever used. My hair is soft, shiney and stays that way for a full week. Wow. This is well worth the money.
Excellent Curling Iron

I have always been pretty inept with most curling irons. I would buy one every few years, then hate it and never use it - ending up giving it away. This one, IMO, is much easier to use. It is very easy to roll it without tangling things up; the two handles can be manipulated and rolled through the hand very easily. The cord does not get curled up in the rolling. It is also easy to release the iron without mashing the hair or pulling it. Thanks to the level of heat, it is very quick to use. I have kids, so I really appreciate the Folica heat proof mat that I can wrap it up with when I'm done (free with purchase of iron when I got it).
Good product

I am very satisfied with the Hot Tools Marcel Curling Iron. This is the first time I have owned a ceramic iron and I am very happy with the results. Folica made it easy to order and I received the product in a timely fashion. I wanted a one inch barrel and couldn't find one anywhere without a store ordering it and costing me more than I paid on this site. I like the temperature settings too. The free curling iron holder is not great. I have one already that I like much better, as it is more compact.
