The Not So Good Auto safety shut off– Prevents the unit for overheating or becoming a hazard should it be forgotten and left unattended. Also a result of the design of the Air Plates Compact, it’s easy for hair to become trapped in-between the suspended plates and the casing, which can cause some snagging. This means it’s important to be precise with placing the sections of hair in-between the straightening plates, rather than sliding the appliance through your hair more casually.

Some customers found them to feel bulky with bumps and ridges in the wrong places when styling. Our View

The Air Plates Compact are designed to be a smaller version of the full-sized Air Plates, to make them the perfect straighteners for travelling. This has resulted in a main body that measures in at just 20cm, compared to the GHD Gold’s 25cm and the lengthy Babyliss 3Q’s 30cm. The plates themselves are 10cm long and are made from ceramic-coated titanium. This means they’ll be durable, but not quite as effective as the solid ceramic plates you’d find on more premium irons. This is just what you need with fine hair as we would recommend using the lowest temperature when dealing with delicate hair as its the inevitable that the high heat will damage your hair follicles. Ghd really is a brand you can rely on, you can trust this to style your thin hair no matter whether its simple straight or luscious curls, these hair straighteners will achieve your look.

With next to no handle to grip the device, you’re having to hold much further up the body and therefore closer to the the plates. While their suspended plate design means the Air Plates Compact don’t become hot on the outside, you’ll still feel the steam coming off your hair, which can burn your hand if you aren’t careful. Thin Hair – Smoother gold plates glide effortlessly through the hair causing less damage, even for frizzy hairA blue LED on the handle signifies when the straighteners are turned on, and the instructions state that this should flash until they reach the correct temperature for use, with a quoted 30-second heat-up time. However, during testing we found this light remained static, which made it difficult to determine when the Air Plates were ready to use. Due to their small size and lightweight body, the Remington Air Plates Compact are straighteners aimed at the regular traveller. However, at just 5cm shorter than a device such as the GHD Gold, they’re hardly a huge space-saver.

Its 230 degrees Celsius variable temperatures allow you to adjust the temperature to your preferred heat. The GoodUnlike other straighteners, the suspended plates perfectly align with your hair to capture each strand in one stroke, helping you achieve a one pass perfection that will help not to cause any damage to your thin hair. Overall these are a reliable pair of straighteners. Not only is this straightener great for thin hair it is also suitable for both men’s and women’s hair which makes it nice and versatile (You know your partner uses your straighteners anyway). The Not So Good variable temperature– Offering you the optimum stylish temperature, and heats up in just 15 seconds. The Air Plates Compact don’t come with any accessories, such as a carry case, which seems like a bit of an oversight considering their intended use.
