Nicky Clarke\u2019s Infrared Pro line is a series of hair styling tools designed to do less damage to your locks than regular heated products. <\/p>\n
The straighteners in the range use infrared plates, which heat the hair from the inside out. Nicky Clarke claims that these plates lock in moisture, giving your locks a glossy finish. <\/p>\n
But are these infrared straighteners all that they\u2019re cracked up to be? I\u2019ve spent some time styling my hair with these tools \u2013 both straightening and curling. Here is what I\u2019ve found out. <\/p>\n
Design & appearance <\/h2>\n\n- Matte black finish <\/li>\n
- Infrared titanium plates <\/li>\n
- 10 temperature settings <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The Infrared Pro Straighteners take a classic approach to their exterior design. They come in one colour, black, with a matte silicone finish on the plates and a shiny finish on the handle. <\/p>\n

They are 30cm long and 5cm wide, and the plates are around 1.5in, which is slightly wider than a typical straightener. They come with a 2.5m cord with a swivel mechanism for easy maneuvering. <\/p>\n
They\u2019re relatively lightweight at 274g excluding the cord and plug, so are comfortable to use. They\u2019ll fit inside a large overnight bag, but aren\u2019t as space-saving as dedicated travel straighteners. Plus, there\u2019s no cordless option available. <\/p>\n
The plates are made from titanium, rather than ceramic, and include microsensors which distribute the heat evenly through the plates. The red lines on the plates glow red when turned on, an indication of the technology used. <\/p>\n
Nicky Clarke claims that the plates include nanotechnology that \u201cremoves odour and harmful chemicals\u201d. Presumably this means that it helps to remove pollutants from your hair but even after using them, we\u2019re really none the wiser. <\/p>\n
The buttons on the straightener are in the middle, which can be awkward to get to. They include a power button, as well as a temperature button with 10 different settings, ranging from 120-230\u2103. The temperature is displayed on the LED screen in blue, and rises gradually until it reaches the number you\u2019ve chosen. <\/p>\n

For your peace of mind, the straighteners have an auto shut-off feature after 60 minutes, should you forget to turn off the switch. The box also includes a rubber heat protective mat that can be folded away. However, no case or glove is included in the box. <\/p>\n
Performance <\/h2>\n\n- Quick to heat up <\/li>\n
- Decent performance for both straightening and curling<\/li>\n
- Higher heat needed for thicker hair types <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The Infrared Pro Straighteners take 50 seconds to heat up if you\u2019re whacking it all the way to 230\u2103. <\/p>\n
I have reasonably thick hair with a wiry texture and 2A, loose waves naturally. Some cheaper straighteners often struggle to work well on my hair, but I was able to transform my bushy mane into straight locks in under ten minutes with the Infrared Pro Straighteners \u2013 see the results below: <\/p>\n\n![\"Selfie](\"https:\/\/peymantaeidi.net\/stem-cell\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Nicky-Clarke-test-hair-before.png\")

<\/div>Hair before straightening Vs hair after straightening<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nMy hair developed a few kinks and knots after going out and about (especially in the wind), but often only the most impressive tools can keep my hair poker straight. I had to use the max heat setting in order to achieve this look \u2013 some other products from brands like GHD have given better results at lower temperatures. <\/p>\n
Nonetheless, if you have finer, thinner or shorter hair than mine, you may have better lasting results with a lower heat setting \u2013 which is ultimately better for the health of your hair. <\/p>\n
Though these aren\u2019t designed specifically for curling, I found curls and waves held better than when I straightened it, even when using on a lower heat setting. The curved ends make curling reasonably easy, too. <\/p>\n

I found Nicky Clarke\u2019s claim to leave a shiny finish on the hair largely true. One stroke of the plates left the hair looking nice and glossy, and not at all dry like some other cheaper straighteners. The glide is quite smooth, I didn\u2019t find that it caught or snagged on my hair. <\/p>\n
The odour erasing claim seems like a bit of marketing fluff, but I can forgive that for what is an overall impressive performance. <\/p>\n
Price & availability <\/h2>\n
The Nicky Clarke Infrared Pro straighteners cost \u00a3129.99 and are available directly from , as well as from Amazon<\/a> and Boots<\/a>. The brand doesn\u2019t typically sell in the US. <\/p>\nThis price point is more expensive than traditionally heated products such as the BaByliss Elegance 235<\/a> \u2013 most likely because of the infrared technology used in the build. However, at the time of writing there is a generous \u00a330 discount, which certainly makes them worth the money. <\/p>\n\n![\"Nicky](\"https:\/\/peymantaeidi.net\/stem-cell\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Nicky-Clarke-Infrared-Pro_review_3.jpg\")

If creating minimal damage to your hair is a priority, then you could also consider the Revamp Progloss Steamcare<\/a>, which includes ionic technology and steam plates.

The Nicky Clarke Infrared Pro straighteners can give your locks a sleek and shiny finish in a short amount of time. Whilst they are more expensive than some other rivals, the addition of the infrared technology should mean that you\u2019re doing less damage to your locks in the long run. <\/p>\n
If you have thicker and more unruly hair, then only the highest heats will product the best results, and the performance isn\u2019t quite as long-lasting as what I\u2019ve seen from other premium brands. Nonetheless, this is still a solid pair of straighteners to consider. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The temperature is displayed on the LED screen in blue, and rises gradually until it reaches the number you\u2019ve chosen. <\/p>\n

For your peace of mind, the straighteners have an auto shut-off feature after 60 minutes, should you forget to turn off the switch. The box also includes a rubber heat protective mat that can be folded away. However, no case or glove is included in the box. <\/p>\n
Performance <\/h2>\n\n- Quick to heat up <\/li>\n
- Decent performance for both straightening and curling<\/li>\n
- Higher heat needed for thicker hair types <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The Infrared Pro Straighteners take 50 seconds to heat up if you\u2019re whacking it all the way to 230\u2103. <\/p>\n
I have reasonably thick hair with a wiry texture and 2A, loose waves naturally. Some cheaper straighteners often struggle to work well on my hair, but I was able to transform my bushy mane into straight locks in under ten minutes with the Infrared Pro Straighteners \u2013 see the results below: <\/p>\n\n<\/div>Hair before straightening Vs hair after straightening<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nMy hair developed a few kinks and knots after going out and about (especially in the wind), but often only the most impressive tools can keep my hair poker straight. I had to use the max heat setting in order to achieve this look \u2013 some other products from brands like GHD have given better results at lower temperatures. <\/p>\n
Nonetheless, if you have finer, thinner or shorter hair than mine, you may have better lasting results with a lower heat setting \u2013 which is ultimately better for the health of your hair. <\/p>\n
Though these aren\u2019t designed specifically for curling, I found curls and waves held better than when I straightened it, even when using on a lower heat setting. The curved ends make curling reasonably easy, too. <\/p>\n

I found Nicky Clarke\u2019s claim to leave a shiny finish on the hair largely true. One stroke of the plates left the hair looking nice and glossy, and not at all dry like some other cheaper straighteners. The glide is quite smooth, I didn\u2019t find that it caught or snagged on my hair. <\/p>\n
The odour erasing claim seems like a bit of marketing fluff, but I can forgive that for what is an overall impressive performance. <\/p>\n
Price & availability <\/h2>\n
The Nicky Clarke Infrared Pro straighteners cost \u00a3129.99 and are available directly from , as well as from Amazon<\/a> and Boots<\/a>. The brand doesn\u2019t typically sell in the US. <\/p>\nThis price point is more expensive than traditionally heated products such as the BaByliss Elegance 235<\/a> \u2013 most likely because of the infrared technology used in the build. However, at the time of writing there is a generous \u00a330 discount, which certainly makes them worth the money. <\/p>\n\n<\/figure>\nDominik Tomaszewski \/ Foundry<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
If creating minimal damage to your hair is a priority, then you could also consider the Revamp Progloss Steamcare<\/a>, which includes ionic technology and steam plates. There is also the impressive (and cordless) Dyson Corrale,<\/a> but this is a luxury product that costs over \u00a3400. <\/p>\nTo see more alternatives, read at our list of the best straighteners<\/a>. We also have a similar chart for the best hair dryers<\/a>. <\/p>\nVerdict <\/h2>\n
The Nicky Clarke Infrared Pro straighteners can give your locks a sleek and shiny finish in a short amount of time. Whilst they are more expensive than some other rivals, the addition of the infrared technology should mean that you\u2019re doing less damage to your locks in the long run. <\/p>\n
If you have thicker and more unruly hair, then only the highest heats will product the best results, and the performance isn\u2019t quite as long-lasting as what I\u2019ve seen from other premium brands. Nonetheless, this is still a solid pair of straighteners to consider. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
