Testing the Remington Wet2Style Flat Iron on Damp Hair
I decided to put the Remington Pro Wet2Style flat iron to the test. The claim is that it can significantly reduce styling time by eliminating the need for blow-drying, allowing for a damp-to-straight styling process.
I started with freshly washed, deep-conditioned, and damp hair. This allowed for a true test of the flat iron's ability to handle wet hair effectively.
The flat iron boasts a unique venting system to remove excess water as steam while straightening, a feature I was eager to experience firsthand.
Features and Functionality
The Remington Wet2Style flat iron offers several key features. The power button is conveniently located on the right side. Heat settings are adjustable up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
The ceramic and titanium plates are designed for heat protection. The 'damp' setting, activated by holding down the plus button, enables the venting system to remove excess moisture as steam.
A blue illuminated screen and steam icon visually confirm the activation of the damp-hair feature.
Straightening Process and Results
Before applying heat, I applied a heat protectant serum and spray to each section of my damp hair. Small to medium sections were taken for optimal straightening.
The flat iron was held with the vents facing away from my scalp, using a comb to guide and detangle the hair. The process was surprisingly quick and efficient.
The results were impressively sleek and straight, requiring only one pass of the iron per section. The speed and quality of the straightening were beyond expectations.
Additional Notes and Damp Hair Demonstration
For those who doubted the dampness of my hair, I demonstrated by spraying water on a section. The flat iron handled the damp hair exceptionally well, delivering impressive results.
The ability to style damp hair eliminates the need for a separate blow-drying step, saving considerable time. This is particularly advantageous for busy individuals with limited time for hair styling.
The finished look was thick, straight, and without frizz, testament to the Remington Wet2Style flat iron's effectiveness on damp hair.
Conclusion and Final Thoughts
Overall, the Remington Pro Wet2Style flat iron exceeded expectations. The ability to straighten damp hair in a single pass is a game changer, especially for those short on time.
The sleek, straight results achieved with minimal effort and heat are remarkable. The quality of the plates, combined with the unique venting system, ensures efficient and gentle straightening.
The time saved in eliminating the blow-drying step makes this a highly recommended product for anyone seeking a quick and efficient way to achieve straight hair.
