as a hairdresser i must stress do not use these if you have heavily coloured hair if your hair is at all delicate or if your hair is dripping wet these are notorious for frazzling hair we had a spate at the salon after xmas with poor women ewith singed hair just make sure you use aheat protector
by the way i always think thicker plates are better if you hair is thin and thin plates are better for thick hair makes no sense but is alot easier
hope this helps

I have the thin plates so that I can flick etc if I want. They have a sliding temperature control - I would recommend trying it at say the medium setting and then turning it up if you find it takes too long to dry.

My hairdresser always forgets I have them and says about frazling hair, and then tells me that mine is in very good condition Wink but I would say I only use it about 3 times a week. BTW they work very well on both wet or dry hair.
