Doesn't Last
This brand of curling irons have lasted more than a day or a few weeks as the past reviews have stated.
I use my iron everyday and they have lasted not quite a year. As the past reviewers have said the teeth portions come out of the iron. The top black cap starts to move and the teeth fall out. :( There aren't many of these curling irons left because the younger crowd wants the different types that are available. I like this brand but wish they would last longer than a year. One year is really overstating the fact. It's like six months and it starts to fall apart. I just bought another one of these irons today. Only because I can't find any other brands of irons like this type. The last iron that I just threw away, the cord separated and after heating ithe iron, when I picked it up the SPARKS flew all over the bathroom.... Luckily I had my old one iron in reserve, which the teeth were falling out. :( Please, I love the iron. Make the top cap secure so it doesn't spin and the teeth fall out!!!!!!!! We would be happy to pay a few dollars more to have a better iron.... Thank You |

Fell Apart After Only 2-3 Uses
This was purchased from Sally's Beauty Supply but after using it for only 1 week, the inside metal portion of the barrel came apart within the black plastic handle, which means I wasn't able to apply any force with my wrist as I was styling my hair. Also, every time I used it, the black plastic strips (i.e. the teeth) that slid into the top metal portion of the curling brush kept falling out of the brush and I would find one on my bathroom floor. As Belson did not include a screw within the center of the black plastic tip (like my other curling brush had), there was no way to tighten the tip in a way where the 'teeth' would not line up within the metal grooves of the iron, thus creating the strips to slide out of the metal grooves. About a week after I had it, I returned it to the store for a credit but I've not been able to find another half-inch curling brush anywhere. The only other similar curling brush I can find online in 'half inch size' is made by Helen of Troy but I'm not happy with those reviews as this manufacturer placed the on/off button in the center of the handle and therefore the curling brush turns itself off as customers are holding onto the handle of the brush. As I was unable to find another 1/2" size curling brush anywhere, I bought the 3/4" curling brush made by Conair Instant Heat, and although the construction of this curling brush, the 3/4" sze is simply too big for my short hair. If only more manufacturers would make a curling brush in the 1/2 size, I would be a much happier customer.

Just What We Needed!
It is nearly impossible to find 1/2" curling irons. I do not like the ones without a brush, so when I saw the Belson 1/2" Professional Dual-Heat Brush Iron, I jumped on it! My 87 year old mom lives with us and I wash and curl her hair at least once a week. When I am finished with her hair, she looks like she's been to the beauty parlor; the results are so professional looking! Family members are very impressed and my mom tells me I should have been a beautician! I owe the credit to this curling iron. My sister uses the same size. She knows they are hard to find, so before I ordered, I asked her if she wanted me to get a "spare" for her. She declined. Then she used the Belson one day and she's been bugging me ever since, to get one for her, and a spare!

Mom Is Happy!
We were looking for a replacement for mom's old curling brush - which is no longer available. Saw this one - ordered it - she loves it. It came very quickly and is exactly what she wanted.

Not Good At All!
This curling iron never worked. When I received it I opened the box, put the iron in the bathroom for use the next day. Then I threw away the boxs. Big mistake! The next morning I went to use the curling iron and it wouldn't even heat up, must have a broken wire or something. Lesson learned never get rid of the package till you try the product!
