I had the opportunity to try out the new KISS InstaWave Curling Wand through a promotion with BrandBacker. Being curling inept, I thought this device would be perfect for me.
I was totally right. This wand seriously rocks. There’s basically no chance of burning yourself (And I have… many, many times using a traditional curling iron) and I can curl my hair in about 5-10 minutes depending on how much of a perfectionist I choose to be. ;) I also have yet to get my hair stuck in this thing. I was seriously paranoid about it, but it seems to be basically impossible to really get it tangled in there. Trust me, I’ve tried. (Okay, not intentionally, but I have on occasion got a little overzealous with how much hair I try to curl at one time…)
Anyways, I thought I’d share my review and tutorial in video format, so you could see how the device actually works.

This really is pretty cool! I love how you don’t need to be exact at all setting the hair up before it starts curling and it just puts everything into place for you. And I totally agree, the big curls like you have here are so glamourous.

Yeah seriously, I have no time or patience to separate each section perfectly like they do in the salon. :P Occasionally I do get a little overzealous and get too much in, but it doesn’t really screw it up, you just have to separate the hair and try again.
well you have amazing hair and that’s not fair. lol! i have seen a ton of these posts and i really want one.. but i dont ‘need’ it and it’s kinda expensive, boo!
Um, whatever your hair is fabulous. I was just thinking that when I was reading your blog the other day! It is a little pricey, but if you’re thinking about it, Ulta does run those 20% off everything sales fairly often… ;)
Love your tutorial, I really love the InstaWave!!! I haven’t used my regular curling iron since they sent it over!
It’s so awesome, I haven’t looked for my clipless wand since!
its like… fantastic, huh?? i was so amazed when i used it for the first time!
Seriously! So much better than I expected.
Haha – I’m curling iron impaired too! I always burn my fingers with my clip- less wand, even with a glove (I probably need gloves on both hands)! The instawave is very cool…
Totally know what you mean… the last time I tried to use my clipless wand I burnt myself twice. With this, I’ve used it about 6 times and have yet to burn myself. So much better!
Very pretty! I have the Conair Curl Secret (which is also an automatic curler) and I was seriously amazed the first time I used it, lol. The future is here!
Seriously, I’m so happy they got with the times and are helping us out with these automatic curlers! ;)
