I purchased this Tong about a year and a half ago, It was great until recently and now sometimes it heats and sometimes not. Or it will heat and turn off with in seconds.

I loved this device and for the money I spent on it I would expect them to work longer then the cheap brands. Of course warranty is only 1 year. I was not a daily user of the product so I'm quite surprised it's broke.

I tried this from a friend, before I bought it. Absolutely love it!! Best Price I could find, too.

These are the first hair tongs I have ever used. My hairdresser used these on my hair and I came out of the salon looking like I had straight hair with a end curl (from very curly hair).

I bought the tongs attempting to DIY. The tongs did their bit however me, the user, needs a lot more hours of tonging experience!

Apart from user issues, the tongs worked well, they heated up super-quick, were light enough to hold over my head for extended periods, would recommend to anyone wanting to buy this type of hair tong.

This product is wonderful. If you have a bob or shoulder length hair and are wanting to straighten and turn under just a bit. Really does a nice job!!!

I have had mine for about 3 years. You can completely straighten your hair or curl it, you just need practice with the iron just like a traditional "flat" iron. It is much easier though to curl with the Hai elite Tong than a "flat" iron (since there is a curve in the iron, you don't have to use your wrist as much.) Like any salon grade tool, you just need to know how to use it. I would suggest taking your purchase to your hair stylist and asking them to do a demo.

If you are looking for a straightener that will straighten your hair without damage, than this is the straightener for you. It has a digital heat thermometer that allows you to see how hot it is and then adjust it in increments of 5 degrees. I have very thick hair and usually only need it on 355 degrees.

The reason i only gave it 4 stars is because if you like to crimp, curl, or straighten your hair so it it is straight all the way down, then you DO NOT want this. I still cannot figure out how to keep it from flipping slightly inward at the bottom (due to the curved plates). And crimping, curling, any thing besides straightening is impossible with this.

Still, a very good product and worth the money for my hair not to smell burnt or have horrid dead ends.
