Conair Unbound Cordless Auto Roller – Rechargeable Auto Roller For Curls or Waves

Wrist Saver
As someone who has fibromyalgia and arthritis, taking the time and effort to curl my hair was last on my list. This tool has made it so much easier. The curls are perfect and it heats up quickly for before work styles. Now, I do have curly hair. This just make those rebel locks match up to the rest of them.

If you are “hair stupid”, this is SO EASY, and gives great curls
**This is long, but detailed. If you want to know, yes, I give this 5 stars and would purchase it again. If you want the skinny, keep reading.*****Update #4: (4/1/2023)*** This stopped charging and working in October 2022, less than 3 years after purchasing. I used it on average once every 10 days, maybe slightly less since 2020 there wasn’t much hair curling going on. That’s about 110 uses. I’m going to repurchase it, but I’m taking off 1 star for the short lifespan of this.I’ve attached a before photo (face blacked out) of my hair when it has been quickly blow dried with a “wet brush” and nothing else.The after photos are of my hair after using this device. My hair was on day 2 of not being washed and had zero product in it before or after I took these photos (I wash every 7-10 days).**I’m also LEFT HANDED. This is important to note because basically every hair tool I’ve ever used is made for right handed people, and it makes it harder to do your hair with your dominant hand.**-I get a Brazilian blowout at my salon every 4 months, but my hair is about 3 inches past my shoulder, and is naturally very thick, incredibly coarse and wavy. It holds curl very well (I can get a blowout at the salon with a curling iron or wand and it will hold that curl (and look good) for 3-5 days depending on the weather and strength of hairspray used by the salon.-I am what I call “hair stupid”. I’ve tried the “BeachWaver” (burned my hair off), the DryBar curling iron and curling wand (burned my fingers and damaged my hair), and traditional curling irons and wands (burned myself and always had creases in my hair from curling irons). I also never knew which way to curl the hair. 🤷🏼‍♀️-I opened this out of the box and charged it for an hour (it recommends 4.5 hrs, but I wanted to try my new toy). You will need your own “brick” for this, but I have a dozen or so extra sitting around so this wasn’t a problem for me. If you don’t have extras, you may want to order one the same time you purchase this.-The device won’t work while charging. I don’t mind this, because it’s cordless and would be easy to travel with.-It is heavier than most curling irons I’ve used in the last two years, but it wasn’t cumbersome.-I turned it on using the on/off button. You use this same button to move between settings, heat/time, which way it curls (right, left, mix).-I chose the middle heat setting, and curled the left side of my head with the R setting, and the right side of my head with the L setting.-There is a lot of beeping. I honestly didn’t mind it, but I can think of handful of friends this would drive them crazy. And if you live with a significant other and share a bathroom, they might lose their mind. It beeps a significant amount.-I put the top half of my hair in a knot on my head and brushed my hair, and then took about 1/2” sections of hair, and while holding the device up right, put my hair about an inch and a half from my scalp at the top where you can see the curling iron portion.-I hit start (and held it down), and it magically took my hair and spun it inside. Once it completed this, it started the beeping.-I held down the start button this entire time, and once the beeps stopped, I let go and pulled the device toward the ground and it released my curled hair (second photo is of the unbrushed curls).-I continued this on the lower section of my hair (making sure to switch the setting from L to R when I switched the side of my head I was curling). Once I was finished I did the middle section of hair, and finally the top of my head.-This took about 15 minutes, and I’d say 95% of the curls look the same, which is what I wanted.-My hair never got tangled using this device (I expected it to, because I’m “hair stupid“) and I’d say that my hair usually knots and tangles pretty easily (it’s so coarse I usually have to cut those knots out). I didn’t have this issue with this device.-Once I finished, I combed the curls out with my fingers. I did not put any product in it (the last 3 photos).-The final photos were taken moments after I combed through with my fingers, and the top layer of my hair was still warm from the device. I fully expect my hair to “calm down” (this is a little too beauty pageant-y for my taste) when I wake up in the morning.-I used this on my hair and on a friends hair when this was FULLY CHARGED. It was turned on and being used FOR OVER ONE HOUR and the battery indicated it was low, but it did NOT run out or shut off. I have a lot of thick hair, and I just can’t imagine how one person would ever need this for over one hour of use. The battery is absolutely sufficient if it is fully charged.FINAL THOUGHTS: I like this device, and I like that I can’t burn myself (at least not easily, as I never even felt anything warm except my hair). It was really easy for me to use (took about 2 tries to get the hang of it). I also like that this will be easy to travel with and there is no cord so I can sit in front of any mirror or reflective surface and curl my hair, and not have to worry about where an electrical outlet is.If you don’t mind the beeping, I think this is a fantastic device, and I’ll be getting far less blowouts now that I “know” how to curl my own hair. I paid $80 for this on Black Friday and a blowout at my salon is $50 (that includes her tip). If I use this just twice, it will have already paid for itself. That’s definitely a WIN in my (pocket)book.**UPDATE #1 (12/11/19)** 3 days post curling with this device (and day 5 of dirty hair)- my hair has nice wave to it, that looks like I did something to it. I’ve literally only brushed it every morning and evening and haven’t used any product in it. It has been excessively humid and it rained yesterday in Houston. This hair is pictured in the 6th photo.**UPDATE #2 (1/8/20)** I’ve had this for over a month, and have used it every 7 days (when I wash my hair). My hair hasn’t been damaged by the heat, and I think it looks healthier than when I was using a flat iron on it once a week. This tool is still working perfectly, and I have had ZERO issues with it charging or staying charged. I LOVE this device.**Update #3 (2/13/20)** I’ve had this two months and used at least once, sometimes twice a week. I have NOT gotten my hair tangled or caught yet (I think smaller pieces are key), I LOVE the cordless feature. I save so much time multitasking by walking around the house and curling my hair. It is so easy to use, and it still charges with no issues to the battery life. I will update at a later date if/when I have an issue.

Muy fácil de usar, no se me enredó y me quedó Perfecto, obvio luego te pasas el peine y queda un ondulado moderno.La carga casi se acabo con usarla una vez, pero creo que es suficiente, la vuelves a cargar y a guardar y lista para la próxima.No es muy caliente, no te quema.La recomiendo totalmente

When i got the product i found charger is missing plus manual instruction is missing and i tried to operate the machine it is not working . I tried to raise the issue to customer care .They noted my issue but i can’t see any action they have taken as no update they have provided regarding the replacement of product.Kindly look into the issue and resolve it asap .

I don’t usually leave reviews, but I felt compelled to after buying the Unbound. I was so skeptical and was ready to add this to the MANY hair curling devices that don’t work I have stashed in the bottom of my cupboard, but after I heated this baby up, BAM, REAL curls! Not only real curls, quick, easy and LASTING real curls. The machine is so easy and quick to use, and the results last for days. The Unbound is absolutely worth it. I have only had one snag when I tried to stuff too much hair in (my fault). Otherwise, a dream to use and the results are amazing.
