It's just.. broken.


Vidal Sassoon?


Doesn't ring a bell, as much as people like to say that the more expensive a product is doesn't make it better...


Chi's and other $100 or so straighteners work much better.





Edit: Oh, I just haven't heard of it then, strange.


Either way I'm still all about Chi's.
get a new straightner (i like conair) and toss your cra*ppy one away!


: )
Vidal Sassoon is a famous hairdresser, to the girl that didn't know the name! They have a range of high quality products.





Your hair straightener is broken. Invest in a new one.
there might be a short in the cord, i would try in see of the hair-straightener has some kind of warranty.
Its broken. :P





Get a new straightener. Vidal Sassoon is legendary for his hair styling, and hair products... Not so much styling tools. =/ If you're looking for a new straightener thats affordable, try the infinity straightener, by conair. It heats up within 5 or so minutes, and really does the trick. If you're looking for something super over the top, try a Chi. They're expensive, but they work.
there's probably a wire inside that is broken/worn out. Most straighteners don't last too too long, unless you get what someone else recommended, a Chi. Make sure it's ceramic.





the vidal isn't that expensive to replace. just go to target or walmart and get another, or make the investment in a nicer one.
Vidal Sassoon is probably a cheap 30-40$ straightener you got at the pharmacy, any straightener with gold plates on it is great. I agree with Chi (pricey but it's a great investment) or CERAMIX (Isinis)..Good luck
buy a new flat iron. get a chi. they are the best in town.
i had a cheap straightener that just woudn't heat up so that it worked it just got warm but then i bought one that was expensive and it works it depends how much you spent on it if its cheap its useless but if it was expensive then its probably broken
