Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.

The TYMO CURLPRO Plus is an automatic rotating hair curler with a 32mm barrel, sold corded electric for £76.49. It takes the top spot in this guide, and it carries the largest body of ratings in it: 4.5 out of 5 from 10,555 customer ratings, plus an Amazon Best Sellers Rank of 1 in Curling Tongs.

In a category where listings tend to argue with themselves, this one mostly does not. The title says 32mm long barrel and the Size field says 32mm. The spec sheet gives a maximum of 210 Degrees Celsius, and none of the bullets offers a different temperature. Where the ficha does get strange, it is small: the Unit Count reads "1.0 count", and the ionic claim is written as "600M ionic technology" — a figure we can only repeat as the listing states it, and not one we can check. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing for this product, not from testing we carried out ourselves.

What buyers actually say

Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon

Verified purchase

“This is really easy and fool proof. Did not think it was going to work so well. Was worried about tangling but it does stop when that happens and I managed to remove my hair from there easily. I love this”

“Very good.I have fine hair and struggle to get my curls or waves to stay in. Even when styled at my hairdressers.I'd read brilliant reviews about this Tymo styler, but was sceptical. Until my friend bought one and recommended it to me.Wow ! It's been brilliant😀The curls / ringlets are very tight to begin with, but when brushed or combed through, they look great.Whats even better, they last !! - Up to when I next wash it, 2-3 days.Although the curls have dropped a little, they look more natural and 'beach wavy' as time goes on.”
