Product Test Drive: Babyliss Pro Tourmaline Ceramic Curling Iron 3/4

I was in the market for a new curling iron, when the lovely folks at FlatIronExperts.com sent me this one for review. Not only are they an amazing resource and one-stop-shop for flat irons, but they also feature other hair styling tools, like curling irons. You're going to want one when after you learn of the amazing features. Check out my thoughts:


I would say that the standard, popular size of curling iron is the 1 inch. And for those of us with long hair, this will certainly be the standard, popular choice. But what if you have short-medium hair? That's where the 3/4in Babyliss Pro Tourmaline Ceramic Curling Iron comes in. It's quite simply an amazing curling iron--one of the best out there--and exactly what you need.

First, let's talk about the appearance:
  • The Babyliss Pro has an extra long, heavy-duty, swivel cord, and dual voltage--perfect for travel!!
  • It also has a slim, rubberized-grip handle, and isn't heavy, which makes styling easy and comfortable.
  • The curling iron features a pop in/out system (pictured above) that allows you to lock in your temperature without a finger slipping and changing the dial--this happened ALL THE TIME with my old iron.
  • I also like the tapered end, which makes holding the tip easier to hold.
  • Additionally, the metal stand can be pushed away because the curling iron has a mini stand built in. I say this because I need the extra length of the barrel, so I just move the metal stand when I use it.
  • The Babyliss Pro also has a long thumb rest, which is comfortable (and leads to no burns!).

But the best parts are the features:
  • emits negative ions and far-infrared heat so it...
    • Eliminates static electricity                                      
    • Neutralizes odors
    • Preserves more moisture within the hair shaft    
    • Causes less damage to the hair cuticle
  • has longer lasting curls due to the tourmaline technology
  • has 40 heat settings (428 degrees)
  • features instant heat recovery
  • gives glossy, smooth hair thanks to the tourmaline/ceramic
  • it comes in 5 barrel sizes too--if the 3/4 inch isn't your thing    
  • features a two year warranty, free shipping, and retails for $84.99.

What are just a few of the many hairstyles can you do with it?
  • Taylor Swift curls
  • volumized root curls
  • soft curls
  • beach waves
  • ringlets
  • retro curls
  • aka, any style you'd do with a curling iron!
I love the Babyliss Pro Tourmaline Ceramic Curling Iron!

  3. I can't tell you how many times I've come home with a 'bad' curling iron or flat iron. It is pretty unbelievable how much crappy stuff is on the market.

    So thanks for this. I'm filing this away under my shopping list.
