NuMe Professional Styling Tool/Couture Review

If you want stellar results when styling your hair then you must have a tool that holds true to its claims.  When myself or my clients want to straighten out our natural curls I'm now going Couture by NuMe.  This NuMe Professional Styling Iron helps me get sleek, shine, bounce & hold.  It's lightweight, heats up really fast and as you can see from the pictures below, DELIVERS!!  NuMe offers a variety of flat irons for different needs and hair types.  The Couture is my choice because it's best for thick & curly hair.  It's tourmaline infused plates allows for a smooth glide and a beautiful sealed in shine.  If your stumped for styling ideas, no worries the inside lid of the package offers directions for five options: silky straight, soft curls or waves, flip in, flip out, and volumize.  My only wish for this iron is that the grooves on the top be made with a softer gripping material.  Over time of use, especially if the hair is plenty and  the temperature is up (it heats up to 410) the grooves  became uncomfortable to my fingers.  All in All  I am pleased with the results.
