Instyler Have you used it?

I'm thinking about getting the Instyler, but before I do I'm wondering if anyone here has used it, was it easy to use and quick to use, does it really straighten hair, was it worth the price?

    I had one and loved it! It worked for me and for M and we both have thick, kinky/curly hair. But it did die after about 2 years though and we only used it a couple times a month. I don't know if that's typical or a fluke.

    Was it easy to use @peanutbutterfox?  Or do I need to have some actual talent?  My hair is thick and wavy, so typically I just let it air dry with some product in it, but in the dead of winter it might be nice to leave the house with dry hair.

    Yes, but I was not crazy about it. But, my hair is pretty fine and the instyler kind of made me look like a president's wife.

    @bluepointtoasted & lucilleaustero, those are both my concerns as well.  I have a flat iron at home and I'm crap at using it and when I do my hair tends to come out "stiff".  But when my hair dresses does it, it's freaking awesome.

    Hmm, I think maybe I will get one.  Every school year I resolve to look more "polished".  I'm pretty sure always coming in with wet hair doesn't fit that description.

    They are doing some 30 day trial, buy one get one free.  IF my friend wants to try the other one I'm going to do the trial.

    @bluepointtoasted if you can use a flat iron, you can use an InStyler. You just clamp at the root and pull down to the ends.

    Oh.  I thought this was the thing that blew dry and straightened your hair all in one step.

    I don't have the wet to dry one. I have an instyler, but it was given to me as a gift. It's okay. I wouldn't have paid for it myself probably. I don't have curly hair. It's just thick and wavy really. I don't use it for anything other than straightening. I've never been able to figure out how to use it to curl my hair. I still have a cheap regular flat iron that I think works just as well.
