Product Description

Amazon.com Review

For healthy, long-lasting curls, the Steam 'n' Shine curling iron can't be beat. It has a sleek, high-tech design and offers a range of 20 different heat settings so you can choose the safest, most effective temperature for your type of hair. Steam vents on the barrel of the iron infuse hair with moisturizing protection and help lock in curls. A conveniently located button puts mist activation right at the tip of your index finger. Safety features include a cool tip, a built-in safety stand, automatic shutoff (after about 70 minutes), and a heat-resistant shield that can be placed over the barrel during heat up or cool off and allows for immediate storage. Finally, this handy tool features a 6-foot cord and dual voltage for worldwide travel. At last, you can curl without frying; your hair will love you for it. --Erin Brown

5.0 out of 5 stars Conair Steam n Shine Curling Iron, January 15, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Conair MI20RCS Steam-N-Shine Curling Iron, 1 Inch (Health and Beauty)

I LOVE this curling iron. I have very fine, straight hair which has always been difficult to curl. As others have said this curling iron heats SUPER fast, and the steam really helps my hair to hold the curl. I've used mine so much in the past 2 1/2 years that it's gotten quite gunked up from hair spray; so I'm buying another one today. I may have considered a less expensive model, but because this one comes with a quick, snap-on cover, I can even curl my hair right before I leave for the airport. I don't have to wait for the curling iron to cool, just unplug, snap on the cover and throw in my suitcase. It also has an automatic timer so you never have to wonder "Did I turn my curling iron off this morning?".

The Conair MI20RCS 1-Inch Steam'n Shine Curling Iron is the best curling iron I have ever used. My hair is difficult to curl because it is very straight and coarse. With this curling iron I am able to curl my hair fast (it heats up in minutes, and the personally controlled steam option instantly sets and adds shine to my hair). This is a curling iron that I do not have to hold in my hair for 20 seconds. On the high setting, I wrap my hair around the barrel, steam it, and release- as easy and quick as that. It has reduced my morning routine time to half. The only drawback is that the handle is not durable, so it not one of those curling irons you can abuse by throwing in a gym bag or "checking" on an airplane.

I have long blonde hair and have used hot rollers for years. My mother came home with this Conair Steam'n Shine Curler and I was amused. I like the idea of steam versus a hot rod since I assume it causes less damage. It was so easy to use, it heated up instantly and it works wonderfully. I have since bought one for myself and recommend it highly.
