Nume Megastar Flat Iron

Ola beauty lovers! I am back again to give you a thumbs up review on the latest Nume Megastar Flat Iron.

Now before you readers think that Nume gave this Iron to me, You are wrong. Just like the rest of you consumers, I grabbed a  coupon code from one of those fellow larger You Tubers and redeemed for the iron at a great price spent with my own dollar bills that I work hard for.

This Iron goes for $199.00 on their website. I snagged mine for $79.00 which is an amazing deal. You tubers such as Ciaobellaxo, Whatwouldlizzydo, MakeupbyTiffany, and NicoleGuerriero should all have coupon codes if I remember correctly so go check them out on YouTube to snag a deal.

Anyways, back to the review. I was a bit hesitant to pick this puppy up, BUT I was in the market for a new flat iron since my last one is ten years old, and on its way out the door. Yes I said ten years old. I purchased that bad boy back in high school when I was co-oping at a hair salon. I have dropped it billions of times over the years and it still worked, sometimes it needed a shake or two to get the temperature to where I wanted it but it was great. Times have changed and I needed a new one.

I was tempted to go into Sephora and look into one of those flatirons but I was not in the mood to dish out $200 or more. So I did some soul searching on YouTube about the best flatiron out there and low and behold the Megastar came up time and time again. So I journeyed off to the Nume website to check it out, you know see what the description is the price [even though I had a coupon code ready on hand :) ] Every time I went to that darn website the Nume Megastar flatiron was always sold out!

I said to myself holy moley this iron must be amazing. So I waited patiently in the side lines for them to be restocked. Everyday I went to their website to check on them. Then finally one gracious day at the end of September they were back in stock! I snagged one right away since they sell like hot cakes.

I was so excited to try this baby out and I counted the days down until I got it in the mail.
You may ask why such the hype? Well let me tell you the features on the box:

*100% Tourmaline Ceramic Plates with infrared light
*1 inch precision-engineered floating plates
*25% longer tourmaline plates
*Digital temperature setting between 140-450 degrees F (60-230 degrees C)
*Superior ceramic heating elements
*Far Infrared light beam
*1000% more negative ion conditioning technology
*30min automatic shut off
*360degree power swivel cord
*Rapid heating component heats up in seconds
*Built in thermal fuse
*dual voltage
*Multi-purpose styling tool
*Ergonomic sleek design

My whole take on it all was the infrared lights and how those lights are suppose to help you add hydration to your hair instead of stripping it out. So I couldn't pass it up for the price I got it for.

The very first time I used it I was impressed. The second time I used it I was amazed. Then every time after that I was blown away for how silky and hydrated this tool made my hair feel. Phenomenal! I do not use a lot of product in my hair, and I don't use a lot of product so I can see what the iron is capable of. Obviously to use some product in the hair does help your hair. So once I towel dry my hair I use It's a 10 Miracle Leave in conditioner with keratin. That is the only product I use before I blow dry and flat iron.

This iron is great for straightening your hair before bed, then waking up and you have no kinks in your hair! No joke, I was so amazed that the iron helps prevent kinks in the hair. My hair feels so smooth, silky and looks shiny then it ever did before.

The best part of this tool aside that it helps hydrate and is multi purpose (you can use it to flip or curl as well) is that it helps seal your ends so that they do not split. No joke I used to get a lot of split ends because of using heat tools and since I have been using this iron, my ends have not looked healthier until now. Mind blowing.

The tool is a great hair tool, and very much worth the investment especially if you care about the state of your hair.

Keep in mind that the tool is suppose to help you maintain the health of your hair. You still need to take care of your hair by using shampoo, conditioners, deep conditioners, oil treatments or heat protectants. Do not stop using these products, as the irons purpose is to enhance the outcome of those products results.

Below is the link for the Nume website in case any of you are interested in giving this iron a second glance. You never know this could be the iron for you if you give it a chance :)
