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.

Your hair straightener is broken. Invest in a new one.

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
