After watching one of my friend's Youtube video review of the Conair Curl Secret, I had to try it. She made it look super easy and it always takes me hours to curl my thick, coarse, and straight black hair. I searched online and found out that Macy's sells this curler. After going to pick up my DNA kit for a school project, I stopped by the Macy's on 34th St. You would think they had everything with 8+ floors! BIG MISTAKE! I spent over two hours walking around, asking staff where this curler was. Turns out no one knew what I was talking about except for one guy working in the bath department! God bless you! Before I even told him what I was looking for, he guessed I was here for "the new Conair curler." It is so popular, it was out of stock
and he told me within a week or two of getting a new shipment, it gets sold out. You would think the executives would learn to stock the shelves with more quantities but I guess not. He offered to order it online for me and when I asked him "What's the difference between you ordering it for me versus me going online and ordering it myself?", he replied "There is a sale going on right now. I can get it for you for $60." I didn't believe him so he had to turn the screen to prove it to me. Normally, it cost anywhere from $99-$125! He also gave me a discount for wearing red and my grand total after tax was only $52! SCORE!
The curler took almost two weeks to get shipped to me. I got bored one day and decided to try this out. Normally it takes me about 45 mins to an hour to curl all of my hair and that is if I do an "okay" job on the back of my head. It's kinda hard to curl the hair on the back of your head by yourself. I haven't mastered that yet. But using the Conair Curl Secret, it only took 20 mins (including time I put the curler down to partition my hair) and the curls came out great! I wanted to see if the curls would hold on thick hair. Without hair spray my temporary curls usually stay for a 2-3 hours and by the end of the night are crossed between messy waves and straight hair. Using the Curl Secret, my curls stayed in til the next day and it wasn't until a FULL day later (just before I got into the shower) until it started to loosen up into waves. Just like any other machine, they will be errors and malfunctions. My hair got caught three times in the curler and all three times I opened the chamber and my hair just slide out. No mess, no pain, no scars. If you don't read the instructions prior to use, or ignore the indicator beeps, I'm sorry you're asking to ruin your hair.
