Just wanted to update you all - I went ahead and bought a remington pearl curling wand, the smaller one...its AMAZING! The curls are SO much better than my old clamp curling iron. Also, it is SO easy and fool proof and I get perfect results literally every time. I HIGHLY recommend it! yay!

does anyone know where I can get a replacement glove? I lost mine....
I need one that is tight so I can still control my hair

Same here. I bought the smaller one when it was the only one out and bought the wide barrel one the following year. Both are amazing and leave you with the shiniest, softest curls.

The Remington Pearl is $25 and under, but I would have paid double for how great they work.

I think it depends what type of hair you have and the type of curl you're trying to achieve. I have hard to curl hair and so the wand is great. For some reason, the curls last!

Ulta currently has the ultra chi wand on sale and I think there may even be a promo code. It's about $50 off retail. I have the .7-1" barrel and LOVE it!

Which one do you like ? My daughter has no said she wants the larger one now.how different is the result of the curls between the two ?
Thanks !

It's COMPLETELY worth it, I had a curling iron and it left dents in my hair and it also limits your styles. I then bought a karmin g3 clipless curling iron and it was much faster to curl and they lasted longer too. It takes a bit of getting used to and I used the beginners heat-proof glove for the first couple of times...but after you know how it's done it's way faster and easier than a clip curling iron. I got the karmin one because of the heating and the tourmaline ceramic barrel, which apparently is faster and safer for hair.

Yes!! It takes getting use to but it wonderful and curls last forever.

I really enjoy using my curling wand.
I have the remington pearl.

I've never needed the wands--I just start about a few inches from the roots and slowly curl as I go down. You want to keep it loose to avoid dents and always leave a few inches at the bottom uncurled (to get a more natural and less ringlety look). I keep the iron upright and it works great.

I prefer the wand. For some reason I just can't get a regular one to work without dents and it takes longer.

I had a curling iron and took off the clamp and the results were not that great. It's not the same I don't think. Went to Sephora and bought an actual curling wand and wow, better results and long lasting!!

My hairdresser tested one on me a couple of months ago. She didn't like it and doesn't use it and frankly I didn't like it either..regular curling iron for me worked better.
