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.

This was a great item to take on my recent trip to Europe. Granted, it's smaller than the one I usually use, but I needed a smaller one to take on my trip and this perfectly fit the bill without any issues. I have pretty thick hair and so had to use a smaller amount of hair each time I used it, but that wasn't any big deal. The amount of heat was perfect and it never got too hot. I will use this every time I make a trip to a country that has different voltage than the U.S.

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.

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.]

The pros: very small, compact, and supposedly adjust automatically between 120/240v The cons: only one heat setting (on or off), you have to be mindful of where your hand is at all times, unless you have very tiny hands. I pinched my hand and fingers at least four times the first time I use this because of the design. Also, I found myself turning the straightener off on accident. There are grips further up the barrel, but it is a very unnatural position to use a straightener (using just your thumb and pointer finger high up on the straightener). I'm sure after a few tries I could get used to that. Having fine hair, I'm a little concerned about using this too often. It seems to catch at the end of my hair rather than gliding off like all of my other straighteners. Over time I can definitely see this damaging the ends of my hair, and does make the final appearance of my hair less smooth van with my regular straightener. Not a deal killer for travel, but definitely not something I would use everyday. Also, because it is so tiny you do need to use very small pieces at any given time, which does make it take a lot longer. if you have very thick hair or very long hair, I don't know that I would recommend this. All in all, this is a decent straightener for the price and for international travel. Just be aware of the negatives!

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.

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 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.

Es muy buen producto y práctico para un viaje.. trae convertidor de corriente , ideal para países de Europa

1.As it shown in the pic 2.It is reallly hot 3. and has a protective bag 4. Perfect for traveling

Works excellent for travel. Compact, decent heat, warms up and cools quickly. Takes longer because the plates are smaller so you have to do your hair in smaller sections, but it gets the job done.

Buen tamaño para viaje

Heats up fast , works well. Quite a small barrel size but works well for my hair and for travel.
