"This curling iron was unusable due to a defective clamp. While the iron powered on and heated, the clamp did not hold hair all, making it impossible to curl. My hair continuously slipped out no matter how it was positioned. A curling iron with a clamp should be able to secure hair, and this one failed at its most basic function. This appears to be a manufacturing defect. As of yesterday, the product has been returned. I am waiting for a credit."
"The iron looks and feels very professional. The color is even cuter in person. The long barrel leaves curls in my hair with longer separation between the waves. This creates the nice wavy, but not too curly, effect everybody’s looking for right now. I love the lock feature so that when I’m curling my hair and accidentally hit the temperature button, the temperature stays where I put it."
"My hairdresser recommended Bio Ionic, and I've never regretted my decision to listen. I've purchased both the 1 inch and 1. 25 inch long barrel irons, and could never go back to anything else. It doesn't pull or break my hair, it heats up very quickly, the temperature is the perfect amount of heat, and the long barrel is perfect for my longer hair. 10/10 recommend."
"The Bio Ionic curling iron did not disappoint!! This is the 3rd curling iron I have purchased from Bio Ionic. All 3 different barrel sizes. I have the 1”, 1. 5” and now the 3/4”. All long barrel. Love the teal color. I wish Bio Ionic would have Marcel curling irons. I can work faster and more efficiently on my customers with Marcel Curling an irons."
"I purchased a Bio Ionic curling iron in October 2024 and was initially very happy with the product. Unfortunately, after only about 1. 5 years of normal use, it stopped working completely. What has been even more disappointing is the lack of customer service. I reached out to Bio Ionic support regarding the issue and received no response. I followed up a second time and again heard nothing back. For a premium-priced styling tool, I expected better durability and significantly better customer support. Products can occasionally fail, but customers should at least receive a response when seeking assistance. Based on my experience with both the product longevity and customer service, I cannot recommend this curling iron."
"I only tried curling my hair once with this curling iron, but the curls didn’t last at all. The titanium wand I previously used worked better, but I find the wands a little dangerous and burned myself a few times. I’m doing the steps of using a texture spray before, curling tighter than I want the curls and lettering them cool. I’ll give it another try and see what happens. I’ll even do smaller sections as well. It’s a challenge!"
"This is the second long barrel curling iron I’ve purchased and the clamp on both has broken within a very short period of time. Love this brand and this line, but super disappointed with this product."
"I purchased this product and was excited to use it, as my friend has one. I’ve used hers and love it. I turned it on and from the second I turned it on, the curling iron started making a constant clicking noise. I contacted the company who said I would need to submit a warranty claim due to it being defective. I did that, didn’t hear anything after 10 days, so I contacted them. I got a response saying someone would be in contact with me shortly. Found out that once the claim is processed and the item is received, it will take 4-6 WEEKS to receive a new product. Even though it’s brand new, I’m unable to just do a simple return because the item is defective. Absolutely ridiculous. I would never order from this company again or recommend them. I’m sure it’s great if everything goes well and you receive a product with no defects, but in the event that you do, you’ll get a new product 2 months later."
"Love the xtra long barrel that makes it so much better to use with my thick long hair. 100% better than what I’ve been using for the past couple years! So much easier to do my hair now."
"This is the only curling iron that doesn’t pull out my hair! It gives a great smooth finish and a long lasting curl!"
