LOVANI Mini Flat Iron 0.5 inch, Dual Voltage Travel Hair Straightener for Short to Medium Hair & Bangs, Small Size Ceramic Tourmaline 3D Floating Plates, Heat‑Resistant Pouch Included

I bought this because I travel to Europe frequently and my regular flat iron won't work there even with a plug adapter. This has a US plug but still works in foreign countries. I have used it in South America and Mexico as well as Europe. This is nice for traveling because it's fairly compact and comes with a pouch you can put a warm iron into. It heats up really quickly and does a great job. It is a bit annoying that it takes longer to do my hair because of the size, but it's perfect for travel.

Super convenient to reavel. Work well, it has the small case super helpfull. Works with diffeerent amperage that means you can take it to Italy. Haha.

I wanted a small straightener to take when I travel. This works very well. It heats up fast. The heat panels are a little small so you have to do multiple sections but that’s to be expected because it’s small. I also really like the travel case. The iron part fits in one packet and the cord fits in an outside pocket so it’s easy to pack and use. I also like the heat resistant liner. After and during using the straighter, I test the hot portion on the travel cases heat resistant section of the cases close cover. This way, I know it’s cooling safely. Great product! I highly recommend it.

Im really pleased with this flat iron! Purchased for a trip to Europe. One thing to note that it is small-much smaller than a regular hair straightener. If you have loads of hair, this probably isn't for you. For me, I just need to do my bangs and the top of my head, so it works out great. The small size is awesome because it fits nicely in my carry-on, which is all I travel with. I suggest practicing with it at home before your trip, to get used to the size. The pouch is really nice as well.

I tried 3 different 1/2” mini/travel flat irons from Amazon - all with the new technology of V Shaped design in plates. The V Shape is supposed to be better for your hair, but the plates only close completely at the top end. The V opens more as it goes farther back on the plate and some irons may not have enough grip for fine hair. I did not choose the Lovani because the gap between the plates just did not grip my hair well enough to hold it. It was the least least expensive of the three, but I quickly dismissed it. I chose the AmoVee over the other two because of the gripping power and gliding of plates, heat, length and cost. The other one I looked at was the BaByliss Nano Titanium Mini Straightening iron (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B001T0HHAG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1) The BaByliss definitely had the smoothest and best grip for my fine hair, but the handle was way too hot, I would need to use a glove to hold it. It also was the shortest length which made the handle heat more difficult to hold and the plates were extremely hot and not good for my hair. The cost was at least twice as much as the others. I highly recommend the AmoVee. It grips and glides almost as good as the BaByliss. It heats up fast and is hot, but not too hot and it is easy to hold - ironically, it comes with a glove, which I do not need to use. The cost was in the middle of the other two.

I this to Europe last month, and it worked perfectly with my European plug adapter (no converter needed). It felt just as hot as my regular straightener. It's just big enough to straighten bangs and manage the odd kink here and there from falling asleep on wet hair, but it's not going to straighten a full head of hair, and it won't really curl long hair. I wore my hair up most of the time and just wanted to do my bangs, so this was perfect. I traveled carryon only had had to weight every item I packed to stay under Lufthansa's 8 kg/17 lb limit, so I loved the light weight and compact size of this straightener! It also comes with a heatproof carrying case lined with foil, so you can pack it again immediately after using it. I'm thrilled with this item; not only will it work great in every country without a converter, it's going to come in handy for domestic trips because of its size. [In case anyone is confused... This has American prongs on it. To use it in most other countries, you need an ADAPTER, which simply gives you the correct prongs for the wall plug. You do not need a CONVERTER, which is a more complicated device that allows certain powerful electronics (such as full-sized curling irons and blowdryers) to work overseas without blowing the fuse.]

I read dozens of reviews before ordering this and concluded that experiences differ due to different types of hair and expectations. I was a little worried, but I am so glad I got it, because it worked perfectly for me. I have thick, medium textured, curly/wavy hair that frizzes easily, especially in humid weather. My hair is medium length (just touching shoulders) and starting to go grey. My goal was not to get it totally smooth (practically impossible!) but rather to get it so that I wasn't embarrassed to go out in public, with it frizzy and sticking out horizontally (Bozo-like). I wasn't at all sure that it would be powerful enough. I am happy to say that I loved it. The voltage worked perfectly in Ireland and England; you do need a plug converter. It heated up immediately, much more quickly than my regular big straightener, and also cooled off quickly when turned off. I really liked the way it could get close to my part (where a lot of frizz happens). It was surprisingly powerful. It was fantastic for touch-ups. After I washed my hair, when it is most curly, it did well; in 10 minutes, it had subdued my hair enough that I was fine going out in public. The little case is great, and it slipped into my luggage seeming to take no space. Luckily Ireland/England were not as humid as it gets in the summer where I live (where it can be really hard to straighten my hair with any straightener). I showed it to my 20-something daughter, who immediately ordered one and found it worked well on her trip; her hair is straighter and not quite as thick as mine but her standards of straightness are also higher. Anyway, this was one of my favorite travel purchases ever, and I plan to use it at home as well. Hope your experience is as fantastic.

I bought this travel straightener to take to Japan with me. It is small and packs up nicely so it doesn't take up a lot of room in your bag. It is automatic dual voltage so it worked straight out of the bag with no issue when I used it in Japan. It is not very big so you do have to go through smaller sections at a time, but it was able to straighten my 2a /2b wavy hair. Not something I would use day to day, but great for travel.
