Wigo Jade Hair Straightener
Wigo Jade Hair Straightener The solid jade hair straightener to heat up to 220+ degrees Celsius and higher. (430f + degrees). The stones in the Jade radiate the heat differently than a stylist is used to. The heat does not need to transfer from the plate to the hair like it does in the ceramic or metal hair straighteners. The jade plate iron straightens the hair with less damage from heat to the hair.

The jade hair straightener is hot, 430f degrees and getting more than hot enough to straighten the hair. it is NOT transferring the heat to the hair, it is using it and retaining it in the jade plates to straighten the hair. The fact is the hair is straightening as it should with one pass, so the iron is doing the job. What it is NOT doing is damaging the hair, it keeps the heat in the stone.

Some users may need or want to turn the heat a bit higher than they did with ceramic because the stone is thicker than metal or ceramic thereby requiring more heat.

The reality is when used over a prolonged period of time the Wigo solid jade hair straightener is leaving the hair softer, shinier and in better condition than the same hair using a non-solid jade hair straightener.

"Use the heat - don't abuse the heat"

Trouble shooting

Hair seems to be dragging or snagging thru the plate
  • Make sure the protective coating is removed from the jade plates prior to heat up and first use.
  • If the coating has been removed?- turn the heat up? - think of ironing a blouse?- the fabric drags if you do not have the heat set properly for the fabric being ironed.
  • Different hair requires different heat. Since the stone is acting differently than ceramic or metal it matters what the heat setting is and may require some finesse.

I can't turn the heat higher or lower during use

  • If the green light is on?- you have locked the temperature. To unlock - press the on/off button twice quickly. Use the + / - button to increase or decrease the heat. Continue use. If you wish to lock in the new temperature - Press the on/off button twice to lock it. You must unlock the iron each time you wish to adjust the temperature. You must also unlock it to turn the iron off. To turn the iron off?- press and hold the button down. Note: You do not have to lock the temperature to use the hair straightener.

My hair does not feel hot

  • Is the iron straightening your hair with one or two passes? If not?- turn the heat up. If the hair is straight ?- it is working fine, your hair is NOT supposed to be hot?- just straight.

How do I clean the build up of product off my iron?
  • The best defense is to keep the build up from accumulating. Wipe the warm iron down with a damp cloth after each use, alcohol will help cut any build up. If you have used lots of styling products you may need to wipe down during use.
  • Hot Tools has a hair straightening iron cleaner on the market that can be used safely on the jade.

Product Rating: 4.00 out of 5 Awesome Straightener, just be careful of heat
Reviewed by Maggie, June 9, 2009
I've had this straightener for almost 3 years. It hasn't shorted out on me and works very consistently. It's larger size is much handier than smaller straighteners because it can straighten more hair at a time, which is wonderful with my medium thick hair. However, its bulk can be annoying when packing. I wouldn't believe everything the blurb says about not damaging hair, my hair does have a little bit of heat damage (though not nearly as much as other people's who use other straighteners daily). My hair also is shiny and smoother after using this product.
The only trouble I can think of is it gets very, very hot, and if you aren't careful your hair will burn you. Ouch. But it works quickly, usually only taking one or two swipes to straighten completely. I absolutely recommend it.

Product Rating: 2.00 out of 5 Fell apart
Reviewed by Shannon, March 25, 2009
I had this straightener for about 3 years. It did a great job straightening my hair, but it did leave my ends dry and fragile. My biggest problems with the straightener was that the thing fell apart, and I had to keep the two arms of the straightener that held the plates together with bobby pins so I could use it. Eventually, the lights that signified which heat setting was being used burned out, and the straightener shorted out and turned itself off. But other than that, it made my hair really straight...
