One-Stroke Hair-Straightening Comb On 3 Hair Types | Beauty Or Bust | Beauty Insider

A good hair straightener is hard to find, let alone a straightener that works quickly and effectively on all hair types. But the Tymo Ring Hair Straightener Comb, a hair tool that works as a comb and a straightener in one, claims to do just that.
Insider producer Nico Reyes tests the Tymo Ring Hair Straightener Comb along with two friends, Insider producers A. C. Fowler and Caroline Aghajanian, to see if the $50 hair straightener lives up to its claims of easily straightening any hair type.

For anyone with kinky/coily hair type 4 hair, you have to do a lot of prep work before using. The dudes hair was already pre- stretched..making it appear as if it was a “one stroke” curly to straight process.

[@godsgirl7201]

I'm glad u noticed thanks for the tip

[@gabriellelubin2982]

To be fair, most people with really thick, tight curls stretch/blow dry their hair before straightening anyway. I doubt anyone with type 4 hair would want to go in with that thing without stretching their hair 😂 I know I wouldn’t.

I bought this a few months ago for my 4c, frizzy, dry hair. It has cut my press and curl time down by half maybe less. It always stays hot and I can get so close to my scalp that I didn't need to go back over it with a flat iron. My hair was so smooth and soft and my house didn't small like burnt hair. I swear by it I have told all my family and friends about it. I love this product.

[@JennsCorner777]

When straightening hair it's best to use thin 1 inch wide type sections and to section your hair in larger areas first and work from back to front. That way you aren't taking large pieces which are harder to straighten,then it takes more time therefore more heat damage. Always use a straightening product that's right for your hair type & that can protect it from heat. Get as close to the root as you can without burning the scalp and spend minimal time on the ends. Also brush your hair before, during and after. The brush chase method works wonders too. If you blow dry your hair as straight as possible beforehand with heat protectant in your hair before going over with any type of straightener, that will help get the sleek look you want. I've been straightening my curly hair with all kinds of tools for over 20 years. My tips might not work for everyone, or all hair types or damaged hair but I wanted to share in case someone else could use the help.

[@senakumapley9800]

[@kglass3625]

This has been my go-to straightener for over a year now LOVE IT and less expensive than other brush straighteners

[@piyumik9841]

have been using this straightener for more than 2 years, and i am in love with it everytime i use it! it never fails to keep my hair straight and shiny, it also doesnt make my hair oily unlike with using other straighteners, but the only downside i could think of about this straightener is that, it is hard to clean, as overtime hair products and other products could build up on this straightener and you might find it very difficult to keep it clean! overall, the product as a whole is great at doing its job!

[@gabriellelubin2982]

You should stretch your hair first so you don’t have to keep passing the straightener on one section too many times

Good show

[@LoPet6225]

I just bought this based on this video. I have thick, naturally curly hair that frizzes really easily. I just used it for the 1st time & it is amazing!! My hair was previously straightened, but I've been pony tailing all week, so it's not super straight by any means. It straightened in 1 stroke, but I did go over it again just to be how I like it. It took about 15-20 minutes to my normal 45 minutes. The real test will be from freshly shampooed & full-on curly. But I have confidence in this one! Thank you!!

[@nigoraibragimova8179]

Хххх

[@selinaoakley3613]

For someone with poker straight hair who has never used straighteners ever, I watch these vids totally bemused...you ppl with curly hair are soooooo lucky! Your hair is thick and beautiful. I'd swap with any of you any day! 🥰😁

[@angelamiller4113]

I've dealt with very curly hair my whole life and I say the same as you just opposite! I've never been able to straighten my hair to where it looks good it always has a frizz to it and I always say God I wish I could straighten my hair! I've even thought about buying the Dyson but the price is extreme. We always want what we don't have! Lol So I totally understand how you feel 🥰😁

[@rosmarbal]

100% agree. I have straight (i.e. limp, in my mind) hair and have always loved curly, bouncy hair of all types.

[@clairefisher3132]

Your hair is so gorgeous, worn naturally or straightened with this iron. Sometimes people with really naturally curly hair, once they straighten it, the hair looks kind of dry/damaged/frizzy. Yours is sleek and smooth and so beautiful!

[@shh11111]

I am really impressed by the testing, yall did a really great job.

[@NiDasia2984]

My main things are that it work really well on thick hair AND I am wayyyy less likely to be burnt. As someone basically scared of flat irons being close to my scalp I believe this is a God-given product. 😌

[@2313scoobydoo]

Love the tests but I do think it'd be better to have those who straighten their hair often to try it out so they can actually compare it to regular straightners. People who don't ever straighten their hair are going to have a ta-da reaction no matter what because they've never seen their hair straight! Love the video but just think this approach provides really skewed results

[@sigmasiren7]

True because I'm used to way better results than this.

[@NeedANewHobby7]

My grandmother straightens her hair often. I mean the only time I don’t see her hair straighten is when we go swimming during the summer and It worked really good on her thick dyed hair, it could have looked even better if done with products.

[@favi54]

Most people who straighten their hair regularly already have a good straightener or even a favorite. This is for the people who don't straighten their hair due to over burden of complexity

Your friend that wants volume, do it from underneath, as she was doing, but start right next to the roots and go upwards slowly with each strand. I’ve got thin hair and it works really well for me, much better than my straighteners.

[@smittycat359]

I bought my Tymo right after The Pandemonium started and love it. I used to sit under my hair dryer for 30-40 minutes and it was awful in the summer. If I used a flat iron, my normally dry hair would look greasy right away. With this, I can let my hair air dry and heat comb through it the next day and it still keeps its volume. Just wish it was a little narrower so I could curl at the ends more.

Here is what I do when I straighten the back of my hair, I use a rat tail comb and section off my hair and I create little ponytails or little buns all over my hair then I use my cest la vie TAME straightening brush to iron the hair and it's so much easier and another tip I would like to add is that, don't worry abt ur hair getting burnt or whatever the straightening brush won't damage ur hair immediately upon applying heat to it so take ur time with ironing ur hair, hold the straightening brush to ur roots and brush slowly and I normally wait a few seconds before moving on to the length of my hair mainly because it makes my hair flat after 1 stroke but don't hold the iron for too long otherwise ur hair will burn

Just because your hair is full and curly doesn't mean it is thick. If the strands are fine then you need to use the lowest heat setting. Density is different from strand thickness.

This seems like an easier and safer product to use on people with fairly straight to wavy hair. I think there are better products out there for those with curls and thick coils.
