Hair Review | MUK Style Stick Hair Straightener

I'd prefer it if they'd just call it a straightner. My one and only irritant. Moving on. I'd actually never heard of MUK until my most recent Beauty Bloggers Monthly Meet in which Muk haircare took front and centre stage for the night. Which was fine and dandy with me. The less I talk the better. Muk graciously provided  attendees with goodie bags to try the products ourselves at home. In it contained a brand spanking new and may I point out 'shiny' Style Stick for us to try. It was probably at this point I spilt wine on the floor. Red Wine. On Carpeted floor. That was White. Did I want to crawl into a hole and die? Yes. I almost feel I owe my clumsy life to the staff at Chianti Classico on Hutt St for being my soda water bearing saviours. 

The Before & After Comparison

I own a relatively cheap Straightener that cost me around $20. It does the job. Not brilliantly or time efficiently but I never really paid too much mind. I rarely do anything extensive with my hair. I rarely get it cut, I never dye it anymore and I don't apply treatments or product to it really. This is however all due to laziness. It's extremely long so styling it is time consuming. Evening Straightening it takes too much time.
When I used the Muk Style Stick I immediately understood the difference in quality. It took me less than 5 minutes to straighten all of my hair. My hair is rather fine but thick and long so even when I straighten my hair I still get the fly away texture to my hair. Not with the Style Stick. It gives my hair a glossy, sleek and jet straight look. I even noticed after having my hair in a pony tail for a few hours the style held. The hair band didn't leave a kink in my hair. The longevity of the style is very long lasting too. I slept with my hair in a loose bun and woke to my hair still being relatively stark straight. 

The Facts

Muk haircare is a cruelty free company. Two thumbs up from me. The Style Stick is a serious piece of technology. It has enhanced standards that come with most straighteners.

A 360 swivel cord.
LCD digital display.
Adjustable temperature.

 And an Ion Generator which helps seal the cuticle of your hair with the help of negative ions to infuse shine and protect your hair. Infared lights are imbedded into the ceramic plates to penetrate heat deeper into the hair shaft.

Muk are also highly aware of how many of us leave our straighteners on (Sadly I am guilty of this) so Muk equipped their Straightener with and Automatic shut down, meaning the Style Stick will turn off on it's own after 1 hour. That's pretty genius right there.


How Fast?!

Funnily I'm impressed by such mundane things. I was shocked with how fast this Styler heats up. I have a few heat stylers and usually turn them on and wait a good 5-10 minutes for them to heat up but I had no such wait time with this bad boy. For your viewing pleasure I even filmed how long it took from turning it on, to how long it takes to reach maximum. Which is around 7 seconds. This Straightener means serious business and is ready to heat things up as soon as you are.

We have lift off!

I'd like to thank Muk Haircare for being such a wonderful and kind company with giving me the opportunity to try new things and Chianti Classico on Hutt St for being such gracious hosts.
