Best Cordless Hair Straighteners in the UK

Confidently leading the way to the beauty market and quickly gaining popularity, cordless flat irons can be found today in purses and traveller backpacks of many women. It means that they really work. Yet, the biggest issue with these tools is that you’ll need much more time and hassle to style longer hair. However, not all cordless straighteners are the same. So, if you are the happy owner of gorgeous long locks, the Himaly battery-powered flat iron will cover your on-the-go styling needs.

Right off the bat, though still packed in a mini format that will fit into any handbag, to say nothing about travel bags and backpacks, this model was definitely designed with long hair needs in mind. As compared to other similar tools, the Himaly features wider straightening plates that ensure better coverage and are great for longer strands. Besides, the floating panels will adapt to any hair type. So, even if you have thick or coarse locks or curls, the plates will self-adjust to ensure just the right tightness for smooth results. Meanwhile, made of durable ceramics, the heating plates are safe for your hair and won’t cause any damage even at high temperatures. Just choose the right heating setting (between 165°С, 185°С, and 205°С) for your hair type and you’ll be truly amazed by the results.

One more thing that makes the Himaly flat iron a choice both for fizzy straight strands and for stubborn fluffy curls is a 3D tooth comb on each heating panel. It might seem like nothing special at a glance, yet, in practice, it helps a lot. Ensuring better hair grip, the combs will additionally divide and comb through your hair while styling to get perfectly smooth and neat results.

Any woman wants to look good, if not for others then for herself but it’s no fun spending half an hour styling just to see your curls unwind and turn flat in a matter of minutes. Luckily, there are some cordless hair curlers that offer a more reliable result. And though they are cordless, they’re no less effective than the regular counterparts. One such model is the Gospire Mini Portable Hair Straightener.

This device is fitted with particularly narrow heating plates, which are a real blessing if you like bouncy locks. Using the plates, you can turn any type of hair into tight curls that will look glossy and healthy and certainly won’t be as susceptible to humidity. Plus, the narrow plates are good for more thorough styling in case you want a hairdo that’s a bit more intricate than just “curls all around”. We do, however, have to admit that the smaller size is a problem as well as it takes the Gospire Mini a while to tackle particularly long hair. You might even have to use the full battery of the device, really. On the bright side, the size is also a bonus as you can fit this model easily into a handbag unlike some of the bulkier counterparts or corded options. This makes it great for travel, especially since you won’t have any trouble charging it.

Yes, indeed, the Gospire Mini can be juiced up via a simple USB cord so any place with a USB port or a power outlet (if you have an adapter) will be suitable for a quick charge. Although a full battery takes about 3 hours to charge, you can give small boosts to it here and there if you want to touch up your hairdo during the day. By the way, a full battery should last you about 30-35 minutes, more than enough to create a look you like.

If you often end up travelling by car and prefer not to stay in hotels, devices that are charged via sockets or USB ports may not be the perfect fit for you. What would work great, though, is the BaByliss 2581BU, a portable flat iron that works on gas, an easily refillable fuel. We absolutely love the alternative fuel choice which means that you can take the family out for a couple of days in the forest without worrying about your look. The replaceable gas canisters are absolutely tiny and you could easily fit several of them in your purse so that you could have enough for the entire stay.

Do note that you can't use any other canisters but those produced by BaByliss as they are designed specifically for this flat iron and contain no additions that may damage the straightener. The good news is, the flat iron comes including one gas canister so you can use it right after delivery. The runtime on one gas canister is around 4 hours, which should be long enough for you to find and purchase more cartridges for further use.

The device comes with a 2-year warranty so you will have a chance to test it on many trips and see for yourself how well it handles hair, even very long and curly. The ceramic-coated plates reach the needed temperature virtually in no time and handle hair with maximum care.

Women want to look good all the time, whether at home or in the office, on holidays or while travelling, camping, tailgating, etc. It’s in our blood and there is no need to resist it, especially given that you can always take a small cord-free flat iron with you to put your hair in order. Still doubt which model will work for you? If so, then turn your eyes to the Keynice straightener and you’ll hardly regret your choice.

Compact and portable, this model doesn’t trail behind full-scale straighteners in terms of performance and even has a few smart functions the corded flat irons lack. First off, to ensure sleek results for all hair types, the tool is fitted with 3D floating heating panels that will adjust to any hair thickness. This way, not only will you be able to quickly style even thick and coarse hair but also it will help avoid overtightening and damaging thinner and weaker strands. In addition, ceramic plates provide fast and even heat up without overdrying and burning your hair. So, whatever the occasion, you’ll get smooth and silky strands or will be able to create flirty curls and enjoy healthy-looking hair.

A couple more functions we can’t overlook include an anti-misoperation option and the battery life. Due to a smaller tool size, it is very easy to accidentally press the temperature button and unwillingly change the settings or even turn the straightener off. To avoid this, the model allows simultaneously pressing both switches to lock them and style your hair freely. On the other hand, the cordless unit largely depends on the battery life and the Keynice really shines in this aspect. It boasts a 60-minute runtime per charge at a lower temperature setting and can be operated up to 40 minutes at the highest setting, thus, providing enough time to realize all your styling ideas.

Sometimes we spend a lot of time and effort to create an elegant image for an important meeting or mix a seductive look for a romantic date. Yet, windy or rainy weather can ruin your hairstyle and screw everything up. This is where the Deogra DS058 flat iron will come into play and help you quickly spruce up your look.

Just like any straightener of this type, the model is very compact and will easily fit into any purse. The built-in rechargeable battery will deliver up to 25 minutes of run time, which is more than enough both for a quick touchup and for more detailed styling. Besides, it can fully charge in less than 1.5 hours, so, you can juice it up from your PC or from the car charger using the charging cable included in the package.

Suitable for both hair straightening and curling, the Deogra DS058 hair styler offers consistent and safe heating performance comparable to what you’ll get with full-scale models. Made of tourmaline ceramics, the heating plates heat up evenly and maintain stable heat throughout the whole styling session. Though the heat is not adjustable, the temperature varies between 180°С and 200°С, which are optimal heat settings for most hair types. In addition, the floating panels will adjust to the hair thickness and help avoid pulling or snagging your hair too strongly and, thus, will prevent related hair damage. On top of that, the tourmaline coating normally characteristic of premium tools works very gently on hair and exudes negative ions when heated. Not only does it protect hair from heat damage but also removes static, reduces the fizz, enhances the natural hair brilliance and silkiness, and gives your locks a healthy look.

The only niggle we’ve noticed is that due to its really slim design, the Deogra DS058 is more suitable for use on fine and short to mid-length hair than on long and thick strands. However, that’s certainly not a dealbreaker. If you are ready to spend a bit more time and effort, the tool will work pretty well on long hair as well.
