CAJ hair tool -- I have it and love it (review)

LTT1 · ‎03-09-2010

I purchased this hair tool about three months ago and it is perfect for my hair.

I have fine, thin color-treated hair. Underneath the color, it is almost all gray, which means that it has a new, different texture than it had before it became gray.

Before, it was very straight. Now it had become VERY frizzy.

I read of someone here on the forum who uses this tool in a way that fit my hair and my lifestyle.

I rarely use products, so I just use this tool and get the best results on hair that has been towel-dried. The "bending" of unruly hair into the style of cut works very well for me. I can do a little or a lot --

@LTT1How does it differ from the InStyler or the Calista Perfector, I have tried both with limited success

thanks

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

Have not tried the other two!
This one gets very hot and I only use it 3 seconds to get a loose curve and to avoid dsmage.
Also, I am careful where I set it when it is heated.

@I am still oxox - I have all three tools (!), and love all three of them. The one I use most is the Instyler. If I use that or the Perfector, I just air dry. I use the perfector to smooth the hair. For me, it sort of just slides through my hair and I feel like it doesn't grip the hair so much. Perfector goes to 390 degrees, but my Instyler goes to 420, I think. My coarse hair needs that heat. I do use a thermal styling spray before any heat product. Instyler I love the best, gives me a smooth curl. I have a chin length layered bob. The Caj is good; I use that when I want to dry my hair quickly. I love how I can her almost a soft spiky look with the Caj. It is light but it does get hot. I wish it had more than one speed. Hope this helps!

I recently purchase Martino Cartier's rotating hot air styling brush with two interchangable barrels and diffuser. It arrived a week ago, but I haven't had a chance to try it out yet. I'm looking forward to and keeping my fingers crossed for success.
