Amika Hot Pink Mini Ceramic Styler

What it is:A powerful ceramic mini styler that's perfect for travel and beyond. What it does:This compact dual-voltage styler features 100 percent ceramic plates engineered for all hair types. Ceramic radiates far infrared heat that is much gentler on the hair, preserving moisture in the hair shaft and protecting the hair cuticle from damage. The floating plates adjust as you style, which allows you to go beyond straightening and create wavy and curly styles, and prevent tugging and breaking. Great for touch-ups, styling bangs or roots, and finishing, this mini packs a powerful punch. What else you need to know:This product features: far infrared heat and negative ion technology, a unique half-inch floating plate design, and heat-up time within 10 seconds. All Amika tools come with a one-year warranty.

Tiny powerhouse!

I bought this for my daughter, a busy college student. She uses it only to straighten her bangs. She has said that is heats up quickly and evenly. It is easy to work with and her bangs are stick straight!

Amika Hot Pick Ceramic Styler
-01.12.13
It is very easy to work with and is good for styling side swept bangs. Also good for medium length hair. Love how it is so lightweight and love the bag it comes in.

I like it. I have long hair and I use a ghd. I waned a mini for the baby hairs that seem so hard to reach with my full size iron. Works great, but not my ghd......

I was not impressed with this straightener at all. It didn't seem to get hot enough to straighten the hair. I was excited because of its small size, but that was all it had to offer.

Really great purchase
-12.22.12
Quick Take: great deal
I got this to keep at my desk at work, for those mornings where I didn't quite have time to finish up at home, or in case my hair gets its own ideas halfway through the day.
I have medium length thick hair, and this little gem works wonders on it. Perfect for my sideswept bangs, and gets hot enough that i can do a quick flattening treatment on the rest of my head too if I feel so inclined. I'm going to be purchasing a second one of these puppies, it's just so darn good. This was an impulse buy that I'm glad I made.

I was really hoping to love this mini traveling flat iron so that I could bring this little gem with me on trips! Plus, I am chopping my hair off this week, so when I bought it, I figured that it would help me get close to the roots with short hair.
This flat iron was horrible. It didn't feel like it got hot enough and when it was fully heated, it didn't seem to straighten my roots the way a more powered flat iron can. I returned it after trying it for two or three days. Not worth even the $20 or so bucks. Sally Beauty has some $19.99 ones that look more promising.

Great mini flat iron
-12.05.12
I love this bc it gets super hot so it does a fantastic job on styling my side swept bangs n it's so easy to throw in my bag for touch ups. The only small thing I sorta dislike is it doesn't glide easily like my chi but with some heat protectant spray or serum your good to go. Overall, a good investment.

Little Dynamo!!
-11.12.12
Quick Take: powerful, great for travel
This is perfect for travel or for short hair that just needs a quick hit with heat. I love this little powerhouse and it only lost a star due to the lack of temp control. If it had that, it would be perfect! I have fine hair, so I turn it on, get it good n' hot, then turn it off and hit my hair as it's cooling. This puppy gets HOT!

Quick Take: a good value
I purchased this styler on a whim to take on an overseas business trip. I figured if it shored out then I would only lose $25. It works great! I have shoulder length long hair with bangs and this helped me look like I had a blow out. It heats up quickly with only one temp, so use a product to protect your hair. I will carry it with me on a daily basis for touch ups.

-10.21.12
Quick Take: fragile
The straightener heats up really quickly, but tugs at my hair when I work it through. It also feels really fragile, like it'll break while I'm clamping it through my hair. I returned it the next time I went to Sephora.

This is the most amazing hair tool I have ever owned. Heats up super fast, gets super hot and is so small it is easy to manuever. For the price as well it was a total steal.

-10.09.12
Great for touch ups. I hot roll my hair and this takes out the marks left by the clamps. I have a lot of long, thick hair. Haven't tried to straighten all of my hair so I can't comment on that. Perfect for travel with the great pouch that is included.

Just ok
-10.01.12
I got this for my short a-line haircut and it works well on the short part on my back but I did not like how it straightened the longer parts on the front. It took a long time on the front and it doesn't seem to close all the way so it took several passes to straighten. It also gets super hot so you need to be very careful. I ended up taking it back after a few days and exchanging it for the mini T3 Single Pass (which I love).

Only Good for Short Hair
-09.24.12
Quick Take: convenient, portable, snags long hair
I bought this when I had longer hair (and blunt bangs) and it was pretty useless. I could barely get it to slightly curl in my bangs and it would pull a lot. But I cut off all my hair and this little gadget has been my best beauty friend! The width is perfect for my hair and touching up when the weather messes up my hair has never been easier.

Does what it should
-09.22.12
Quick Take: great!
Great little product, does what it should as I have short hair, straightens my bangs perfectly, heats up quickly, great for touch ups at work!
Only downside is it takes a little while to cool down.

Perfect for bangs!
-09.14.12
Quick Take: multi-purpose, time saving, heats quickly
I bought this because it it the perfect size to curl and straighten my bangs. I have short, blunt bangs (think forties) and like to make them stick straight when I cut them and curled under for every day. This little number does the trick! It gets really hot, really fast and applies even pressure to my hair without too much work. It also makes decent curls in the rest of my hair. if i wanted to straighten my whole head, i don't know if it would be big enough, as my hair goes over halfway down my back, but I'm going to give it a try anyway. it may take a while, but my other flat iron yanked on my hair. This one does not. A definite must have if you have bangs, short hair or need to touch up on the go.

Too Small
-09.12.12
I bought this to travel with since I travel a lot and straighten my hair every day... but this straightener is too small and left marks on my hair- it might be good for people with bangs or a bob, but if you have mid to long length hair, it doesn't work very well.
