Hair straighteners are an essential for many women (and men too) and there are hundreds of different straighteners on the market, all promising to give you the straight, sleek and smooth hair that you desire. The choice can be overwhelming!
Here at Justmylook, one of our most popular products is the Corioliss C3 Hair Straightener and the reviews customers leave are excellent. So we’ve decided to put them to the test ourselves to see just how good they are.
How do Corioliss describe their Corioliss C3 Hair Straighteners? “The Corioliss C3 Professional Gold Leopard hair straighteners are a high performance, advanced styling iron for glamorous and perfectly styled hair.
Featuring professional titanium smooth plate technology and extra long floating plates, these styling irons glide through hair with ease for super shiny styles. The C3 also has LED digital temperature control, allowing you to adjust between 135 and 235 degrees, depending on your needs.
An ergonomic slim line design and professional 3m salon approved swivel cord make this styling iron easy to use, giving professional, lasting results. Use it to curl, straighten, smooth or wavy hair for the perfect look every time.”
What we think The first impression when you take the Corioliss C3 out of the box is the feeling of quality. There’s a nice solid feel about them compared to many other straighteners that can feel a bit plastic and cheap. The C3 straighteners feature titanium plates rather than ceramic ones. Initially, we were a bit concerned about this, as ceramic plates have such a good reputation. However, things have moved on and the C3’s titanium plates are much smoother than ceramic plates which means they outperformed the more standard ceramic plates. Titanium, unlike ceramic plates, distribute the heat of the straightener evenly ensuring there are no ‘hot-spots’. This resulted in hair being straighter and longer lasting results.
Stand-out features
- Floating plate technology – The plates of the Corioliss C3 Hair Straighteners are suspended on a flexible membrane. This means that they can move with the contours of your hair and ensure that the plates meet perfectly every time.
- 360 degree swivel cord – Unlike some straighteners whose cord can become twisted and tangled, the 360 degree swivel cord of the C3 straightener ensures it will not become tangled or damaged.
- Negative ion technology – This ensures that static and frizz are eliminated by neutralising positive ions. This ensures that hair is not just straighten, it lasts longer too.
- Infrared heat – The Corioliss C3 Hair Straighteners use infrared heat technology that heat up the hair from within. This means that your hair is not dried out and leaves your hair looking much, much healthier.
