I did unplug it, but i spent 5 minutes trying to get my hair out! It was a moment of panic. It was stupid!

By the way, it was my first time using a bristled curling iron. I thought if you just rolled it up like a regular one, it would come right out. Looks like that didn't quite work out, judging from my hair cut. I thought I just unrolled it the wrong way so I spent 5 minutes trying to roll it out. Then I yanked the plug and started burning my fingers trying to get the hair out. Yes it smelled. Yes I know it was stupid of me to try it out hot the first time. But hey, we all have senior moments, right?

lmfao! bad times? i'd of cried

oh my.

This should be obvious. YDI for not knowing how to use a potentially dangerous item.

this is just me talking, but did you think about A) unplugging it, then B) cold water?

you should have turned it off first then used a rat tail comb to pick it out... poor hair :(

why didn't you just turn it off....?

woahh. unplug the curler to cool it down a little next time

should Have unplugged it so it didn't fry your hair
