Amazon has slashed the price tag of a “salon-quality” hair straightener that shoppers have branded the “best ever” – saying it beats far more expensive brands.
The online retail giant has dropped prices on selected skincare, make-up, haircare and styling gadgets in its Premium Beauty Week sale, which runs until April 22. A number of favourite brands can be snapped for less in the sale, with one popular deal being on the bestselling ghd Gold Styler which is now available for £142.99 down from £189 – but shoppers on a budget can pick up a straightener from another popular brand, which has earned the same rating of 4.6 out of five stars on Amazon based on hundreds of reviews, yet comes in at a fraction of the price.
The Remington Advanced Coconut Therapy Hair Straightener has a whopping 65% off on Amazon in a limited-time deal, bringing its price down from £129.99 down to just £44.99. This straightener is designed to protect your locks from heat damage as you style, with its plates infused with coconut and UV filters for “smooth and shiny results”.
The Remington straightener also boasts a 15-second heat up time, as well as an integrated sensor to prevent overheating, an automatic safety shut-off feature, and digital temperature controls up to 230°C with memory and boost functions, and comes with a handy zip-up storage pouch too. A total 76% of nearly 2,000 Amazon shoppers have awarded the hair styling gadget the full five stars, praising its quality and results.
One reviewer fed back: “I was considering getting ghds, but not having enough funds and reading the reviews of these Remington ones, I decided to try these out. They are phenomenal! Dare I even say that they work on my coarse thick hair even better than ghds. Honestly, you will not regret buying them. My hair is so gorgeous after using them.”
Another Amazon customer said: “I have tried a number of straighteners over the years, including a number from more expensive brands. I have also owned some of Remington’s bought at lower prices than this one. I have to honestly say that this is the best straightener that I ever tried. I was very impressed with both speed and performance.”
And a third shopper agreed: “These are the closest straighteners I’ve ever had to salon quality. They look classy and stylish, are comfortable to hold, and have a slim design that is space-saving. These are genuinely the best performing straighteners I have owned – they made quick work of my difficult hair. Fantastic results.”
However, a few reviewers left negative reviews because they found that the plates “don’t line up”, while a couple of others commented that the plastic became “too hot to handle” when using them. It’s also worth noting that the reviews section combines feedback for Remington’s matching hair dryer, as you can purchase the pair as a bundle from the same product page for £87.98 (reduced from £249.98).
The Advanced Coconut Therapy Hair Dryer is currently available to buy separately on Amazon for £42.99, reduced from its full price of £119.99. And there’s the Remington Advanced Coconut Therapy Hair Curling Wand to complete the set too, priced at £34.58, which has an overall rating of 4.3 out of five stars based on more than 150 reviews.
For an even cheaper option from the brand, the number one top-rated hair straightener at Boots according to customer reviews is the Remington Ceramic Straight 230 Hair Straightener, which has a price tag of just £22.99. Another popular choice is the BaByliss Smooth Pro 235 Hair Straightener, which is currently half price at Boots for £40 and is slightly cheaper on Amazon for £37.99.
