Can it really straighten wet hair?

The ventilation holes let steam escape, so it can be used on damp hair. Most owners get the best results when hair is towel-dried rather than soaking wet.

What temperature should I use?

It has 9 settings from 290°F to 450°F. Fine or damaged hair does well at the lower end; thick or coarse hair may need the middle to upper range.

Is it good for thick or curly hair?

Yes. The 1.75-inch plates take wider sections, so thick, curly and long hair need fewer passes than with standard plates.

It is dual voltage (100-240V), so it works with most outlets overseas. You may still need a plug adapter for the local socket.

Does it have a safety lock?

Yes, it has a safety lock to keep the plates closed for storage and travel.

Is it good for short hair?

The wide plates make it harder to reach short layers and roots. A narrower iron is easier for pixies and short bobs.

Our take on the Wavytalk Wet to Straight Hair Straightener

The Wavytalk Wet to Straight is a titanium flat iron with extra-wide 1.75-inch plates and 10 ventilation holes that let steam escape so you can style damp hair as well as dry. It heats in about 30 seconds, offers 9 settings from 290°F to 450°F, and runs on dual voltage with an 8-foot swivel cord. The wide plates suit thick, curly or long hair that needs fewer passes, while the vented design is the main draw over sealed-plate irons. Owners rate it well overall, though some find the wet-to-dry claim overstated and the size bulky for short hair.
