Review & #Win: Xtava Twist Curling Wand




The Xtava Twist Curling Wand costs £20 from Amazon UK with Prime.  It comes with a storage pouch and glove.  It has a LCD display, cool tip, double voltage and auto shut off.  There are three different wands available, each costing £20.  I got the largest which is 1.1.5".  The others are 0.5-1" and 0.75-1.25".  It has 22 different heat settings ranging from 90-220C.  It uses ionic technology to  prevent the dreaded frizz and the tapered wand is coated in ceramic and tourmaline to protect and maintain the health of your hair.  It has a 2.7m swivel cord.

  This size of wand gives beachy, wavy curls.  The wand comes in a gift box and the travel pouch looks very stylish. The wand is a good weight but not too heavy, comfortable to hold and heats up quite quickly.   The size of my wand is more suited to longer hair.  As I cannot lift my arms above my shoulders I just curl my pony tail (or get someone to do it for me).  The long cable gives the user freedom to move around easily whilst using it.   There is no clip to distort the look of the curl.  There are three recommended setting for different types of hair ranging from delicate thin to wavy and thick.  The screen clearly displays which setting is being used.      

This wand is everything I was hoping the Xtava Satin Wave would be.  Easy to use, clip less, and there is a cool tip on the end of the wand! This would make a great gift as it comes in a nice box, looks a lot more expensive than it actually is and would be a great wand for beginners.

Don't forget to use heat spray!

I recieved the Xtava Curling Wand for free from review.directory in exchange for a honest review.
