Curious Grace Titanium Hair Straightener

from $119.99 at Hairhouse

If you embody all things pink and endeavour to live the true Barbie lifestyle. Everything must be pink. And your trusty hair tools are seriously no exception. Lucky for all of us Barbie Girls Curious Grace Titanium Hair Straightener comes in a beautiful soft bubblegum pink. But don’t fret, its colour is not the only reason we love it. Any hot tool that’s made with haircare in mind has a big tick in our books. And the Curious Grace straightener has not one but three hair-loving designs.

Firstly the Metal Ceramic Heater Technology (MCH) uses energy-efficient technology to ensure not only speedy hair styling but also make sure your strands are straightened with a single pass.

And lastly is the infrared heating technology. The specialised wavelengths protect and reduce damaged strands by gently heating hair evenly from the inside. As if that’s not enough, lightweight and durable titanium coated plates effortlessly glide over your tresses for frizz-free silky strands. Not only does it do all that, the straightener also heats up quickly, has a digital temperature display and most importantly, has an auto-shut-off after one hour. No more spending hours wondering if you turned your straightener off; phew!
