Remington Air Plates Titanium Ceramic Hair Straighteners, Floating Plates for Increased Contact - S7412, White

Product Information

A blue LED on the handle signifies when the straighteners are turned on, and the instructions state that this should flash until they reach the correct temperature for use, with a quoted 30-second heat-up time. However, during testing we found this light remained static, which made it difficult to determine when the Air Plates were ready to use. This Braun Satin Hair 7 ST710 Iontec Straightener is perfect for thin hair as it has accurate controls. Extra smooth surface structure glides 3x smoother vs. conventional ceramic plates to maintain the health of the cuticula. The Not So Good

They glide through hair easily without catching. You can press the ion button and add extra shine to your hair! The Air Plates’ compact size results in a light overall weight of just 215g. Cable length is decent, with the 2.5-metre swivel cord suitable for most situations. Curling isn’t quite as effective, but it is at least possible with some perseverance. Curls were loose, however, and didn’t hold for as long as those created by the Lee Stafford’s Rainbow Shine straighteners, for example, plus the shorter form factor of the Air Plates Compact made it more difficult to hold steady while curling too. It’s also really worthwhile spending the time to look at the key differences between the two products. For that you can use our comparison table about which looks at the main features of both products to give you a clear idea of where one product perhaps benefits over another. When comparing the two it’s a really good idea to have an idea in your mind of the key features that you need from your Hair stylers as this will help you to narrow down the products that do or don’t meet your criteria. However, this causes issues with handling, making us question the Air Plates’ suitability for everyday use.

What’s better REMINGTON Air Plates S7412 Hair Straightener or BABYLISS Pro 235 Smooth Hair Straightener?

For thin hair, it would be recommended to stay on a lower heat. Their groundbreaking suspended plates move freely with your hair to give you ultimate styling coverage. The Not So Good

Its 230 degrees Celsius variable temperatures allow you to adjust the temperature to your preferred heat. The GoodAuto safety shut off– Prevents the unit for overheating or becoming a hazard should it be forgotten and left unattended.

This is just what you need with fine hair as we would recommend using the lowest temperature when dealing with delicate hair as its the inevitable that the high heat will damage your hair follicles. Put simply, the form factor of the Air Plates Compact is the biggest selling point – but also their biggest downfall.Unless you’re super-keen on their size and can deal with the downfalls this brings, the smart move would be to put the money you’d spend here towards a better pair of straighteners that suit both travel and day-to-day home use without the compromises seen here. Verdict

The Air Plates Compact don’t come with any accessories, such as a carry case, which seems like a bit of an oversight considering their intended use. Narrow plates allow for precision stylings, such as getting rid of those kinks and fringes, and for straightening right from the root. The suspended plates are an interesting feature, and certainly do a good job of keeping the outer casing of the straighteners cool – they sit away from the casing. Unlike other straighteners, the suspended plates perfectly align with your hair to capture each strand in one stroke, helping you achieve a one pass perfection that will help not to cause any damage to your thin hair. Overall these are a reliable pair of straighteners.
