Customer Reviews of Revlon RV084C 3-Barrel Jumbo Waver with Ceramic
Customer Review: BEST MONEY I'VE SPENT ON A STYLING TOOL
Summary: 5 Stars
I had done a lot of research for a waver and kept coming back to this one. What made me order it was that it was a "jumbo" waver that promised to give larger waves and the fact that it was ceramic not metal like many of the others out there. The price was surprisingly low so I was skeptical but figured I'd try it out. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! It really does make very large waves and they come out beautiful. They even last until the next day if you spray it. It heats up fast and gets very hot. I will say that it is very cumbersome and heavy and if you have long or thick hair, it may be hard to do your own hair. Takes some practice. My hair is thinner and past my shoulders and it takes me about 10 minutes if I'm doing it for a quick change up from my normal straight style. I could spend more time and it would only look even better. I have gotten so many compliments from complete strangers about how nice my hair looks the day I wave it. I have tried it on my mom's hair and my sister's and unfortunately, it didn't work as well. So I do think results will vary depending on your hair type.Customer Review: Lovely Design
Summary: 2 Stars
I really looked forward to putting waves in my hair with this. The size of the waves would have been so perfect. The problem is that it never got hot enough. It would get warm and I would have VERY mild waves that would completely disappear no more than 90 minutes later. I would even use lots of extra time on each wave--if I used just the standard amount of time I use with any other styling device, it wouldn't hold at all. I also put hairspray on before I used it which would normally be somewhat dangerous with products that heated up to a normal temp and still it barely worked
It wasn't just the Revlon RV084C 3-Barrel Jumbo Waver with Ceramic I had originally purchased that was defective. I so loved the design that I exchanged it at the store I purchased it for another one. The replacement didn't warm up either.
The ones that gave this 5 stars must have seriously thin hair.
Customer Review: Not too shabby
Summary: 2 Stars
The Revlon waver isn't too bad of a product considering that it's only $20. The waver produces nice waves, but only when used with hair wax or a wet-effect spray so that the waves don't look too frizzy. The iron is extremely heavy, is awkward to hold, doesn't heat up very quickly and isn't very hot so it's a pain to hold the HEAVY iron in place for at least twenty seconds for each section to have the waves set. I have very fine hair and not too much hair, so if this iron takes a long time to do my hair, I imagine it will take much longer for people with coarser hair. The iron doesn't have tourmaline plates so your hair doesn't look shiny and is easily damaged. Pros: the waves stay tight and looks the same as when you first "waved" your hair even after a day.Customer Review: 2 stars for brand name & reliability minus 3 stars for design
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this, used it once or twice and gave it to charity. It is clunky and large, the barrels are not traditional nonstick or chrome but made of a porous-looking material that doesn't allow your hair to slide like the nonstick, ceramic or chrome ones do. I have fine hair that isn't real thick and three teen & adult daughters who live at home. We all tried this and didn't like it or the resulting hairstyle at all and we all have varying degrees of thickness to our hair (all long though). The results were strange looking like you used the old fashioned hot curlers with the metal clips and they left lines in your hair. It says with ceramic on the title but this isn't like the ceramic curling iron I recently purchased.Customer Review: Bulky, Awkward and Poorly constructed
Summary: 2 Stars
I like the look this iron gives my hair but it takes a while and it is awkward and bulky to use. Be preared to burn yourself quite a few times in the begining while learning how to manipulate the iron in order to achieve the best results. The wave look only lasted a few hours in my hair as well. Also, I only had it for about 2 months, using it maybe every other week and it just stopped working. It turns on but doesn't get hot anymore. I would not recommend this product after using it. I just ordered another brand after reading its reviews so I hope it workes better than this one did. It will give your hair a wave look if you go slow and use small sections but as for quality and easy to use I have to say that it fails...
