Customer Reviews of Caruso C97958 Professional ION Steam Hairsetter

Customer Review: Good product, sketchy service
Summary: 4 Stars

I have been using the steam hairsetter for two weeks now and really like it. I have gotten numerous compliments on my new curly look (from guys and girls alike), and it's much safer for my hair than using a curling iron--plus it lasts longer.

I am African American with relaxed hair that just skims the top of my shoulders. I've discovered that an all-over set with medium-sized rollers works well for me. I use one of those headbands with the teeth and a clasp in the back to pull my hair off my face.

Many reviewers have indicated the sets last for days. Unfortunately, I don't sleep well on such hairstyles, so I have to do it over everyday. However, with a bit of practice, I have been able to set my hair, blow dry it, and remove the rollers in about 25 minutes.

RECOMMENDATION: Order a couple extra sets of rollers at the same time you purchase the steamer because it doesn't come with enough to set your hair with all one size. Depending on how curly you want your hair to be, I recommend getting at least two more sets (6 each) of the medium or large rollers (Caruso Professional Caruso Extra rollers medium (674902) or Caruso Professional Caruso Extra rollers large (674903)). Plus, I use the wave clips instead of the roller clips that come with the steamer (wave clips are usually silver, and I found a set of 12 on the hair and beauty aisle at my local grocery store). The roller clips leave creases, whereas the wave clips don't and allow the hair to dry faster.

RECOMMENDATION: When setting the hair, try using a little moisturizer or shine gel on the ends. My hair usually doesn't frizz, but after using the steam rollers, the ends frizzed a little; I assume it was because of the steam. Rubbing a little bit of shine gel on the ends before rolling my hair solved the problem.

My only criticism: you can only enjoy this product if you actually get it in working order! The first time I ordered it, the post that holds the roller in place on the steam unit was broken off. Plus, the steam unit wasn't functioning properly. To Amazon's credit, they overnighted a replacement at no further cost to me. Unfortunately, the post on THAT one was broken too! Plus, neither one had the right mix of rollers in them! It says it comes with 6 each of petite, small, medium, large, and jumbo rollers, but neither package contained any large rollers at all. VERY irritating! Thankfully, the roller post isn't an absolute necessity; you just have to be a little more deliberate about placing the roller directly over the steam.

If not for these issues, I would've given it an overall rating of 5.
