I brought this curling iron from usa works well with india’s voltage too and it was totally worth it. ❤️❤️

Value for money good quality looks expensive great for long hair A bit to big for my hair ,curling ability I Found them difficult to handle

Good product but to big for me

After reading many reviews on several different curling irons I decided to go with this one by IKV. I was specifically looking for a 1.5" extra long barrel for my long, thick hair. I had a regular length curling iron with the same width barrel for quote some time but decided it would probably be easier to curl my hair more quickly with one that had a barrel long enough to accommodate the length. The iron heats up quickly, has digital temperature controls, the cord comes with a velcro strap for storage, and to me the pressure of the clamp is just right. The pressure is neither too much where I am it is dragging and pulling and I am unable to slide the curling iron down the shaft of my hair as I curl, nor is it too light where my hair just slips right through. Once my hair sets and the curls fall a bit I have beautiful loose curls/waves all day - the exact look I wanted to achieve and expected from the bigger barrel. I did read some reviews that mentioned the clamp lever was situation at a bit of an odd angle that made it tiresome to use the iron and clamp for extended periods. I did not find this to be bothersome to me and preferred this "problem" over other reviews I read about other curling irons whose clamp lever was too weak and flimsy and ended up bending completely. The only feedback I would share with the manufacturer is that the tip of the iron could be a bit more substantial to protect from burning one's fingers. Then again, the iron did come with a glove for heat protection and this personal preference did not influence me to consider changing my rating. If you're looking for an extra long barrel curling iron the delivers on performance and quality without costing a fortune, I would strongly suggest this product even over some of the more expensive brands.

This is a high quality curling iron, smooth surface and long barrel. It says that it is 110-220V, but in Dubai the range is 220-240V. According to ChatGPT, some irons can tolerate slight overvoltage like 230V, but this depends on the design and it may be damaging components internally or lead to fire. There is no information I can find online that supports IKV tolerates 230V or higher, so I am being cautious and using it on a step down transformer, where it works great (except that I have no mirror there :)). The power cord that comes with the iron is a North America plug.

The cord is very long, great for a salon environment. The barrel itself is almost TOO long. It's been about 2 weeks now and I'm finally getting used to the extra 1-2inch barrel extention. I think for me, being a hairdresser for 20+ years, my brain has adapted to the length of an average curling iron barrel. This length is great however retraining my brain to NOT grab the hot 1-2 inch extention, has proven to be a challange. Every day it gets better but just be prepared for a few involuntary burns the first few days!
