Review: Remington Salon Pro
Tribal Compact Tong, is just that COMPACT. The cute small tong is great to for
those who want to pack your curling tong but don’t have much room in your
luggage. It has a generous salon swivel cord so there is no excuse for getting
all tangled up. Did I mention it is pink? You have to love it more now that
it’s pink! Remington Salon Pro Tribal Compact Tong is ready to use in 30 seconds.
No, that wasn’t a typo: 30 seconds, so don’t walk away as it will be ready to
use before you know it. It has a titanium coated barrel and the end is not hot
so you can grip it. I really like how these tongs don’t require a clamp/clasp
because they are easier to use without it. It has a red LED light to indicate
that the tong is on and also has an on/off switch. There is a low (150°C) and a
high (200°C) temperature setting. I used the 200°C setting for my hair because
I have thick hair but the lower temperature should work on someone with fine
hair or not-so-much hair. When used with my hair I had a few issues: one was
that my hair was too long to wrap fully around the barrel, so I had to start
half way down the hair. Secondly it would have been nice to have included a
heatproof glove as I found because it was small it was hard to hold and at 200°C,
you don’t want to burn yourself. I believe the full size model includes one. The
curls that this tong produces are quite tight, I think mostly due to the small
barrel to wrap hair around. The curls were smooth and shiny, just the way I
would like them to be. I didn’t manage to do my full head as it would have
taken me hours, so I did the top layer for a really cute look, however I found
it frustrating that I could not use it all over and quickly. The curls, did
drop as the night went on, but I actually like the look better. Overall for a
small compact tong I really think Remington Salon Pro Tribal Compact Tong
stepped up. This product would be better suited to people with short hair, or
if you only need to curl a few sections of the hair. Personally I would be
happier to spend a little extra and get the full size model.
Purchased: No.
