The Hot Tools 24K Gold Curling Iron is a 3/4-inch barrel iron aimed at tight, bouncy curls and defined ringlets. The gold-plated barrel heats to 430°F and uses pulse technology to hold heat between passes, so curls set faster on resistant hair. A soft-touch handle and foldaway safety stand round out the basics. It is a simple, single-barrel tool: no auto shutoff, no digital display, no ion or steam features, which is where cheaper drugstore irons and pricier digital irons split from it. Owners rate it well overall, with most complaints about heat consistency over time and the lack of an automatic shutoff.
