The notice on the curling iron says Never twist the power supply cord and don't wrap the cord around the unit. Does that mean just when the iron is on

My hairstylist said to never wrap cord around the iron when storing it cus it won't last as long that it weakens it

The brush attachment slips over the closed curling iron. Then, when the curling iron is heated up, the brush is warm and provides a nice soft curl. My wife prefers this to using the curling iron directly.

I have not had any problems with mine. But maybe you are twisting it the wrong way when you plug it in.

I love this curling iron. The indicator light is a little difficult to see. I just keep the curling iron at thesame temperature so i don't worry about the indicator light.

Concerning the voltage, this is all I can find in the instructions: "Use on alternating current (60HZ) only. Standard curling appliances are designed to operate at 110 to 125 volts."

What is the wattage of the curling iron? If it exceeds the 300 watt rating on the transformer it will not work. Many curling irons have a switch for dual voltage use 120/240. If it can be switched to 240 you don't need the transformer.

This Levolor cord tensioner that I purchased has a slot for the cord to slide in onto the roller. It does not seem to twist.

I have only used it with the curling iron, leaving soft and shiny curls. I assume that it protects from all heating devices.

I've never had a problem with the smaller cord fraying (with OR without the power curl). That said I really like the power curl keeping the cord organized and that MAY help prevent fraying (both ends of the power cord are secure tightly when completely wrapped). Hope this helps.

I don't know what others might have said, but I assume the idea is not to let it over-heat. Honestly, I don't shut it off until I am done with my hair. Maybe about 20 minutes. I have not had any issues. I love this flat iron!

This curling wand is intended for household use.Use on Alternating Current(60 Hertz) ONLY. This unit is designed to be operated at 120V AC. P.s this is from the Operating Instructions from the product. I hope this helps.

I really love the Hot Tool Curling Irons have used them for years in the salon, they are the best, but I find the cords twist and the irons burn out too fast!! I wish the maker of this iron would redesign the cord for longer use.

I have not tried to use this with a curling iron, but I did use it with my Instyler. It is really important during use that you don't spray too much or your hair might get crispy or burnt. Additionally after use it is important you clean the barrel so it doesn't get gunky. If you don't do that you will ruin your curling iron. Same with any other heat tools.

Nope I left it on or a while after 50 minutes it was still on I unplugged it. That's what u have to do so u can be sure n remember u turned it off UNPLUG IT I personally think it should shut off after ten minutes of not using it. Now there where several of this type n color flat iron for different prices on amazon so I don't know if the others have automatic shut off they all looked the same to me

Yes I curled mine on the highest heat setting, and then straightned it again, but like any normal hair im sure if you left it on for to long it will burn, i left my heat iron on my counter for to long and it burned that. It gets staticy though so use a light mist spray bottle to keep it down. But to answer your question yes! :)

It is a problem. I occasionally take the cord out of the pool and lay it on the deck in full sun or heat for a day. It needs to be straight this helps get rid of the "memory" of the twists

it's the power of the plug/voltage. first you need to check which power your country's plugs support. if it matches with the curling iron voltage, you can buy it.
