Pretty cool!
Great upgrade from the original curl secret!! This is great but it only takes small sections of hair so it does take a while. Worth it though because it looks good.

Wife loves it!
Never used it myself, my wife bought it, and now it’s basically bathroom royalty. Heats up fast, curls hair like magic, and hasn’t burned anyone yet (impressive, since she uses it one-handed while texting).

At a glance
The VS Sassoon Curl Secret Ceramic Auto Curler is an automatic hair curler made for easier at-home styling, especially for users who want defined, loose or wavy curls without advanced technique. It suits beginners and regular stylers thanks to preset options, adjustable heat and curl direction. Its main limitation is the 19 mm barrel, which is less suited to very large, soft curls than some premium styling tools.
What it’s great for
- At-home curling
- Defined curls
- Loose curls
- Wavy styling
- Quick everyday styling
- Beginner-friendly hair styling
Where it works best
- Home bathroom
- Bedroom vanity
- Everyday home styling setup
Who it’s for
- Beginner styler
- Everyday user
- Beauty enthusiast
- Users wanting easier curling at home
Things to consider
The 19 mm barrel is versatile for defined and wavy looks, but it is not the best choice if you mainly want extra-large, soft curls or the broader attachment options found on more premium multi-stylers.
Styling versatility score
8/10 - multiple curl types, direction controls and five heat settings make it adaptable for several curl looks.
Hair type suitability
Best for users wanting adjustable heat for a range of hair types, with settings from 150 °C to 210 °C to better match finer, normal or thicker hair.
Travel friendliness
5/10 - practical for home use, but less travel-friendly than compact dual-voltage stylers.
Ease of use rating
9/10 - automatic curling, preset curl options and memory function make it especially approachable for beginners.
Salon results suitability
7/10 - capable of polished, consistent curls at home, though premium professional tools may offer broader styling flexibility.
Key benefits
- Automatic Curling System: Draws hair into the chamber to simplify curling and reduce the technique needed for consistent results.
- Ceramic-Coated Barrel: Helps distribute heat more evenly for smoother styling and reduced harsh hot spots.
- 19 mm Barrel: Creates more defined curls while still allowing looser finishes depending on settings and styling method.
- Three Preset Curl Types: Makes it easier to switch between defined, loose and wavy curl results.
- Left, Right and Alternating Direction Settings: Supports both uniform curls and a more natural mixed-direction finish.
- Five Heat Settings from 150 °C to 210 °C: Gives more control for different hair types and styling needs.
- Ionic Conditioning: Helps support smoother, shinier-looking curls with less visible frizz.
- 60-Minute Auto Shut-Off: Adds peace of mind by switching off after 60 minutes of inactivity.
Q: Is the 19mm barrel best for tight curls or softer waves
A: VS Sassoon Curl Secret can do defined curls, looser curls and waves, but the barrel size stays the same. The 19mm barrel gives less shape variety than a larger or interchangeable-barrel styler, so very soft, oversized bends are not its strength.
Q: Is this easier for beginners than a standard curling wand
A: Yes. VS Sassoon Curl Secret draws hair into the chamber automatically, so there is less manual wrapping to get right. It is still worth practising section size and placement, because auto curlers work best when the hair is fed in neatly.
Q: Can it curl shoulder-length hair without being tricky to use
A: Yes. The automatic curling system suits shoulder-length hair and can be easier to manage than wrapping sections around a manual wand. Very short layers or a fringe can be harder to feed cleanly into the chamber because the hair needs enough length to catch.
Q: What does the alternating direction setting actually change in the finish
A: The alternating direction setting changes the curl pattern from section to section, so the finish looks less uniform. Use left or right when you want curls turning the same way throughout, which usually reads as a more polished result.
Q: Is the VS Sassoon Curl Secret cordless or corded
A: It is corded, with a swivel power cord that gives more movement while styling. That suits longer sessions at a vanity, but it does mean you need a nearby power point and it is not the same kind of grab-and-go option as a cordless curler.
Q: Can the Curl Secret be used overseas on dual voltage
A: Yes. VS Sassoon Curl Secret supports dual voltage, so it is suited to overseas use as well as home styling in Australia. It is still a full-size corded curler rather than a compact travel model, so packing space matters.
