Hello! Welcome to another #BEAUTYMONDAY at Blonde & Ambitious Blog. How many of you have naturally beautiful, straight perfect hair? (I think I hear crickets in the background..) That’s ok. Neither do I. In fact, I don’t know anyone who does! I have pretty straight hair but it is frizzy, and a little bit dull so I need a good straightener to add shine and volume to my hair. That’s where Irresistible Me Diamond Styling Iron comes in.
Irresistible Me Hair Straightener Review
This post is sponsored by Irresistible Me. All opinions expressed in this post are mine and mine alone.
Let me start by saying this: the only straightener that I’ve ever used (outside of my first $10 Conair one) is my GHD straightener. It has been a beloved part of my hair routine for years. So, this review was going a little bit out of my comfort zone because I didn’t feel like I needed to change up my routine. THAT BEING SAID. I was 100% impressed with this hair tool and I definitely think it will be earning a permanent spot in my bathroom cabinet.
Aesthetic: 9/10
This earns a solid 90% from me!! I love that it is bright red, but I would prefer if I could get it in something like gold or pink, simply because it would match the color of my bathroom and hair supplies better! But it really isn’t that big of a deal, honestly. It is sleek and shiny. The straightener glows green when you turn it on and you can see the temperature on top so you know how hot you are getting your hair (SO important, especially if you have color treated hair).
Ability: 10/10
(also just ignore the fact that I look like straightening my hair is the world’s more boring activity)
I LOVE that this straightener changes temperature. My GHD doesn’t do that and it stays at a constant high temperature. While it definitely gets the job done, I don’t have curly hair so straightening it doesn’t need an insane amount of heat. With the Irresistible Me Diamond Styling Iron, I can choose a much lower setting and protect my hair. It also heats up incredibly quickly, has auto shut off (hello, no more forcing my husband to turn around when we are 40 minutes on the road….), and uses diamond technology to cut the frizz and add incredible shine to your hair. In my opinion, it does all that any more.
Price: 7/10
Ok. This only gets a 70% because it costs $149 (that is still less than my GHD — which I think is around $200). That is pretty pricey for a hair straightener (but trust me: it is totally worth every penny). This would be a great christmas or birthday gift…but probably won’t be an accidental online purchase.
BEFORE:
AFTER:
After all is said and done, I definitely would 10/10 recommend to all of my friends. It adds considerable shine to my hair and it took about two seconds to straighten it. I am not concerned about frying my color-treated hair because of the heat settings and it just looks pretty!
SO. Hopefully, I convinced you to look into this awesome brand. ALSO fun fact: they are ecofriendly and dual voltage. That means you can take them on that awesome trip to Europe you’ve been planning 😉
As always, thanks for stopping by! Don’t forget to follow on social media to stay in the know for giveaways and all the action!

WOW that iron is pretty awesome. I admit i have never used one my hair is alway up in a clip or ponytail. But i like how it worked. May have to give it a try.
I have never used a hair straightener because my hair is so thin, but perhaps it would help with the frizz that plagues me. Thing frizzy hair = very odd to style!
thanks for the awesome review! you have gorgeous hair!
Thank you!!!
I haven’t used a straighter on my hair in a while, but this one looks really good! Thank you for sharing.

I would love a gold flat iron! It’s very important for a straightened to have different temperatures.
I love your hair! I’ve been on the lookout for a new straightener for awhile, so I’ll have to check this one out 🙂
I love Irresistible Me! Your hair looks amazing! Xo
I love the fact that it adds shine while also straightens the hair! So good!

Coming Up Roses
WOW THANKS. You’re the best! And yeah, he’s pretty much the most gorgeous feline that ever lived (I am NOT biased, I swear)

I have one of their curling wands and it worked wonders on my frizz! It is a bit pricey, but definitely of the quality of that price range. Your hair looks great!

It is so great, Karen! I think you’ll LOVE it!! And your kitty is pretty dang cute too!
I’ve been using a GHI Straightener for years now but it will be time to get one soon – maybe I’ll go for this one!
I actually had seen this iron and was curious about it. Now I am going to really give it a look thanks for this!
No problem Ellie!!!!
Great review! These are all the things that I consider when I’m looking for a new straightener.
Thank you for the great review. This sounds like an awesome iron. I need to get a new one. I will check this out.
I use straightener a lot, and the one I have now it’s already a few years I’ve been using it. It’s good to know about other brand. I love the color of this iron.
Looks like you’ve found a lovely and reliable flat iron. I think it’s really nice! You can definitely tell the difference between the before and after pictures.
I have taken a keratin treatment so I have done away the need of a hair ironing rod. I am very happy with the results. It makes my har a lot more manageable and I am always ready to hit the road.
This looks like such a great flat iron. I need a new one and I need to check this out. Your hair looks amazing that way.
That looks like a great flat iron. I haven’t had problems getting straight hair but I have more issues getting curly hair. Does it do curls too?
It definitely does!!!
I really need a good straightener. I usually let my hair go natural but sometimes you just want to glam it up!
That sounds like a really great brand. My hair is naturally straight… and it’s really straight, lol. It barely holds a curl unless I use a ton of product.
I love your before and after! Your hair was so unruly. It looks like a great beauty tool to keep on hand.
I have been looking for a new iron. This one looks like it could tame my hair. I also love the red color of it.
Your hair is shining bright like a diamond even after straightening it! Did you use a serum afterward? Your cat is too adorable btw. 🙂
No serum Suzanne!!! This is just from the straightener!!!
OOooooo this looks like one fabulous flat iron! I need a new one super bad. Might just check this one out!
This sounds like a really awesome flat iron! I haven’t used a flat iron on my hair for years, but I love how straight it can make hair look.
I just love a nice sleek style in the cold weather months. It’s a nice switch up from the beachy waves I rock the rest of the year!
This looks super nice! Sadly, my hair is very long and very curly, not to mention thick. So, I don’t have the time to straighten it every day.
I need a new flat iron like this! I loved my last ones but my kids got ahold of it and broke the cord. I loved the last one, but I want to branch out and get a better one. This looks perfect.
I love my NUME but this looks like it works great! You look fab. Great post!
Wow! The before and after shots are amazing! Such a difference!
This looks like such an awesome straightener. I need a new one so badly and want a really nice one so this totally fits the bill. Thanks for sharing.
Great review, Taylor! I have the Irresistible Me hair extensions and saw their straightener and was wondering about it! Sounds like a great product! Love that it has different heat settings and will automatically shut off!
This looks like a great flat iron! I like that it has temperature settings and will automatically shut off.
This looks like a great straightener! I love how sleek and shiny your hair looks. A good straightener truly makes a huge difference!
It so does!!! I couldn’t believe how much it cut down on frizz!!!!
Love that this straightener automatically shuts off. That’s such a great feature that more products need to have!
This looks like an impressive straightener. With my hair so curly I usually lose arm strength before my hair is done!
You definitely get what you pay for when it comes to flat irons. This looks like a great one.
I’m always looking for a good straightening iron since I have curly to wavy hair. I agree with you that the price is a little steep but I’ve found that most good hair irons are expensive.
This brand is new to me. I haven’t seen it before, but I would be willing to try it! I have a CHI right now, and it never seems to completely flatten my hair.
You’re so pretty, and your hair looks great!! I haven’t heard of this brand, but I use a CHI that I have had for 7-10 years. Maybe I should get a new one?!? Hahaha
You would LOVE it! So much better for your hair 🙂 Also — thank you for bearing with my site! You are so sweet.
