As a beauty enthusiast with years of experience styling my hair daily, I'm excited to share my in-depth review of the Trendy Liss Jealousy straightener from Hair Professionnel. For context, I have normal, long hair that's naturally between straight and wavy—not greasy or dry. I rely on heat tools almost every day (though I always prioritize heat protectants), straightening or curling frequently. My current go-to is a GHD straightener, which I like but find pricey. I tested this one to see if it stacks up as a reliable, more affordable alternative. Here's my honest take, complete with a video demo.
The Trendy Liss Jealousy (love the playful name!) features standard-sized ceramic plates, 10cm long, perfect for versatile styling. Temperature adjusts easily via buttons from 130°C to 230°C across multiple settings—far more customizable than my GHD Styler V, which runs at a fixed, sometimes overly hot temp. It heats up in just 8 seconds, ideal for rushed mornings, and boasts a generous 3-meter swivel cord for hassle-free use. Plus, it's backed by a 2-year warranty from Hair Professionnel.
Suitable for all hair lengths and types, it excels at traditional straightening and creating lasting curls—something my GHD struggles with, but this handled effortlessly, much like my old trusted Calor model.
It includes a heat-resistant pouch and microfiber cleaning cloth—essentials for safe storage and quick travel, even when hot.
In practice, it's lightweight and intuitive to maneuver. Straightening my full head takes about 10 minutes, leaving hair silky-smooth and soft (always use a heat protectant first!).
After testing in real-life scenarios—daily wear, heat, rain, wind, workdays, and weekends—the results hold strong. Honestly, it matches my GHD in smoothing quality and longevity.

I highly recommend it for long, normal, or fine hair like mine, and it tamed a friend's thick, wavy locks beautifully. For very curly hair, I'd suggest testing in person. Exceptional quality for the price at €69.90 (available in 3x payments) on the Hair Professionnel site.
Special offer for readers: €15 off select straighteners with code TENDANCECLEMENCETL15 (valid until 11/08/2015).
