Review for the 5-in-1 master tool Rowenta Beauty Versa Style Iron
By Carla Snuggs
Rowenta Beauty has launched a line of brand new professional, salon-quality hair tools. Today, Posh Beauty Blog is bringing you a step-by-step tutorial for using the Versa Style Iron. The tutorial is by Josue Perez*, Celebrity Stylist at Serge Normant at John Frieda in NYC. With Josue’s tips and the Rowenta Versa Style Iron, you’ll be able to style your hair like you jumped out of his celeb-adorned chair!
What it is:
The 5-in-1 master tool, Versa Style Iron, achieves the results of five salon tools: a flat iron, roller set, and three curling irons in just one, easy to use tool. The iron features exclusive ProCurling™ technology, complete with rounded rubber edges to curl, wave or create incredible root lift while the ceramic-coated, tourmaline-boosted plates deliver long lasting shine.
How to Use it
Why I love it
Ever since I received my Versa Style Iron, I’ve barely touched my Chi flat iron or my best curling iron for fine hair because the Versa Style Iron does it all."
When you use the Versa Style Iron, you will notice it has curved edges (ProCurling Technology) so you get soft friction and a soft grip that you can easily control.
The Versa Style Iron is perfect for traveling. Spring break and summer festivals are right around the corner. When you’re on the go, there’s no need to bring your flat iron, curling iron and flexirods, just bring your Versa Style Iron. Plus it comes with a heat resistant pouch to store it in.
I love the LCD screen as it accurately displays the temperature selection, and you can adjust the temperature from 260°F to 400°F.
When using the Versa Style Iron on human hair extensions or on synthetic hair, as I have, you can simply adjust the Versa Style Iron to a lower heat or the temperature recommended for the type of hair you’re using.

By: Carla Snuggs
Our friends across the pond in the UK celebrated the BAFTAs over the weekend and everyone is chirping about how amazing starlets such as Angelina Jolie, Amy Adams, Uma Thurman and more looked on the red carpet. We think Amy Adams gave great red carpet hair!
Amy Adams had old Hollywood glam down pat in a Victoria Beckham dress and side-swept chignon – Get the look at home. British celeb hairstylist Mark Hill shows Posh Beauty Blog how to recreate Amy Adams’ red carpet hairstyle in 5 easy steps.
Step 1: Pull your hair back into a side ponytail – it’s best to use a product to help smooth your hair and add some hold, such as Mark Hill Love Big Hair! Viva La Volume Volumising Blow Dry Mousse before pulling it back.
Step 2: Use a pin tail comb to help smooth and keep things neat
Step 3: Split your ponytail into 3 sections and coil each section around each other remembering to keep everything smooth
Step 4: If your hair is longer, try braiding your hair and then coiling around for a similar effect.
Step 5: Secure the ends using grips and pins, and finish by spraying some Mark Hill Defrizzi-licious Bedazzled Anti-Humidity Shine Protect and Control Spray to protect from the weather and add a gorgeous shine.
