Crimped Hair Tool Appraisal

Triple Barrel Hair Waver/Curler

This item is a modern triple barrel hair waver/curler, designed for styling hair to create a wavy texture. Its physical characteristics include a sleek, ergonomic handle predominantly in matte black plastic, contrasted by rose gold-toned accents that appear to be a metallic finish on a durable material, likely anodized aluminum or plated plastic, for the barrels and control buttons/trim. The key feature is the three parallel, cylindrical barrels, also in a rose gold hue, which heat up to create the wave pattern. The barrels are approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter each, suggesting a medium-sized wave. The construction appears sturdy, with the barrel assembly securely attached to the handle. A notable feature on the handle is a small, rectangular digital display screen, likely showing temperature settings, and three circular push buttons below it, also in rose gold, which would control power and temperature adjustments. The power cord is a standard black electrical cord, neatly bundled with two rubber bands, indicating it's either new, recently used and stored, or well-maintained. The cord terminates in a standard three-pronged electrical plug for grounded outlets. There are no visible condition issues such as scratches, dents, or signs of heavy wear; the item appears to be in excellent, possibly near-new, condition. No specific manufacturer's marks or signatures are discernable from the image. Based on the design and digital display, the item likely dates to the 2010s or 2020s, reflecting contemporary styling tool trends. The use of rose gold accents suggests a fashionable and appealing aesthetic, indicating a product designed for the personal care and beauty market. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality, typical of mass-produced consumer electronics for hair styling.
