Calista Perfector

KCDiva — Tue, 22 Jun 2021 12:53:51 GMT

I wonder how many Perfectors Maria McCool is going to sell in her career. I can't believe it's a TSV. I have 2 that I don't use anymore but they've been selling them for years. I bought mine as a regular prices at $68 years ago.

Every one of her spray - squirt products I've thrown out.

I use mine at least twice a week. I love it. Makes it easy to get my hair looking good in so little time. I've owned the Perfecter for several years....same one with no problems.

I use mine too. About twice a week. I still have the original one. I might get this updated version. They had one before this, but it burned my fingers. I remember others complaining about being burned. This new one is not supposed to burn your fingers.

I was happy to see the Perfector as the TSV. The one I have, the one inch brush, is now two or three years old. My hair is longer than it was previously, and I wanted to purchase the larger one. The Perfector is wonderful for people with dexterity issues due to arthritis. There is a learning curve, and if your hair is longer, definitely look at the video for best results. The Perfector does make lovely waves in longer hair when held vertically.

The best part of the Perfector is it is cool to the touch. The rest of it is below par. Once you grab the hair around it you have to hold for eternity. You get tired holding the Perfector up. I have not used mine in a long time. What a waste of money.

Adore the Perfector and the TrianglPro. Allows me to let my hair air dry (less damage), then give it volume—silky sleek or curls.

I haven't been a fan of Embellish, mainly because I feel as if I need to wash my hair the next day to remove the coating.

Recently went shorter: short bob.

Still use both the 3/4 and 1 inch.

Tempted to order that fabulous lavender wisteria . . .

My second Perfector bit the dust a few months ago. I replaced it with a $36 Amazon knockoff, 1" AMOVEE, that does a fine job. Today, on Prime Day, it's $27. My hair is a little shorter now so this morning I purchased a PHOEBE 3/4" mini travel version for $15.59.

I don't own any of her products so I can't comment good or bad. It's all Chinese made styling devices, Amazon has the same thing for 1/3 the price.

They've had different brands of the triangular detailer type on Amazon for at least three or four years, under all the Chinese names of course.

I think it's slighty dishonest how she always says hers is a brand new device, the only thing new is the factory just put her name on it.

@fthunt I have returned hair dryer and perfector. Overpriced and junk. IMO

I bought it when it first came out. Ended up sending it back. Thought it was difficult to use. I went through cosmetology school too.. No intrest is the updated one.

Every time they have this as a TSV I am always tempted to order it but I hesitate to do so.

Was wondering the same thing. Seems like the only difference is "new and EXCLUSIVE colors."

I had one of the originals and it became my favorite hair tool and lasted for years. I loved it but when it finally quit working I replaced it with a Revlon brand only because the cost was way less.

I gave my original one to my nice a couple of years ago and bought a smaller size. She's still using it. I'm tempted to get the 3/4 inch one. I had to get my about 7 inches of my hair cut several months ago because so much of it was falling out due to a severe Lupus flare. But I think I'll pass. I bought her electric curlers and I really like them.

My perfector is several years old and works fine. I use it to tame my cowlick and add a little shape to my shoulder length bob. Love it and keep it at hand for touching up my hair with little effort. Has always worked fine for me.
