Tired of your hair getting fried and smashed in a typical flat iron? Then get with the program! Everyone in entertainment, from Kelly Clarkson to Cyndi Lauper to Leona Lewis, has an InStyler rotating hot iron because it uses less heat than traditional heat-based styling tools and delivers better results. The bristles first separate the strands, then smooth, straighten, and style your hair gently, leaving it bouncy, shiny, and full of life. Plus, it works on most hair types! [$119, InStyler]
We’re giving an InStyler to five readers, but you have to work if you want one. The five best commenters for this coming week—from today, Friday, Oct. 9 through Thursday, Oct. 15—will be awarded with one. So, be as clever, smart, and original as you can! Click HERE to read the official rules.

OMG. I love the Instyler. Well, I’ve never used one, but I love the infomercials. It’s mesmerizing. I actually get excited when I see that it’s on TV on Saturday mornings

I just have to have an Instyler!! I will turn from an ugly duckling into beauty queen in minutes. The Instyler is so awesome!! It takes dry frizzy hair and transforms it into this shiny, silky mane that my special friend just adores. An Instyler will definitely turn up the heat…

I have one of these, and it works pretty well - the only thing is that it makes a whirring noise that can get kind of annoying if you have a lot of hair to straighten. I was told it can also be used to curl hair but I’ve yet to try it (my attempts at hair curling usually end in disaster.)

i need this. pleassseeeeee. i need help with my hair and am tired of ponytails and headbands. i too am turned into a zombie when the infomercials come on. i have multiple sclerosis & can’t use the round brush and blow dryer because of heat issues and the amount of energy it takes. this may be the ADA device to make me look human again…it would be nice after 20 years :( ...i pay it forward as much as i can…isn’t it time a little good karma came back my way? money that should be spent on meds winds up going to blowouts. ?? sick, i know and most of the time i cancel the apt. bc i’m barely have the energy or the money to get it done :( please this is my opportunity to rejoin civilization or at least feel a little better about myself.

To those who aren’t already aware of it, you don’t win by commenting in the article describing the item. You win by commenting elsewhere in a germane, usually brief, and hopefully humorous way. And, of course, you need to send flowers to the TF staffroom.

@jsw: while you’re at it, shoot TF a paper airplane asking for better navigation to the rules, winner information and how to claim prize? As it is the IT guy has been channeling Inspector Clouseau for designation of all the mystery links. @SamL needs this info. Thanks

Oh please not another day of brillo pad hair,
Looking like Bozo I’m gonna stay in my lair,
When it rains I’m a poodle,
With a lame looking noodle,
I need help so I can go somewhere!

My Poem - An Ode to the InStyler
My mornings are filled with despair
Cannot do a thing with my hair
I need an InStyler
To be versatile or
Else I’ll sit home in a chair.

Am I the only person in the country who has not seen the infomercial? I am up at the crack of noon,when does the infomercial come on? Since I have my nights and days mixed up, do I have to suffer with ugly,curly, grey hair? Oh wait it probably wont fix the grey hair problem,will it? Maybe it will even straighten out the staying up really late and sleeping late.Yes?

How does one burn the back of their neck? Well, I’m the poster girl for “back-of-the-neck” curling iron burns. I wonder if I trying to curl my hair or my neck.
This is a combination of cheap irons..and operator error. I could use a better hot iron. Thanks

I Love the Infomercials on these. I Love this, and My wet2dry straightener isn’t working for me anymore. It’s a pain in the Butt actually. I want something as Carefree as the InStyler!

I want to try this so bad. My hair is so long it reaches my waist. It is naturally curley/frizzy. I have never been able to straighten it without it being like a big fuzzball. So i have to wash it everyday and use about two tubes of hair gel a week to scrunch it. If I dont wash my hair of the morning it looks as if i stuck my finger in a light socket. I dare you to let me try this on my stubborn fuzzy head of hair.

I am pretty sure when I was little my parents took me to a farm and let me play with the cows because boy do I have a few random cowlicks! Guess I must have spent a bit of time at the beach because there are some out of place waves as well. My g’ma must have been a bird watcher because that is the only way to explain the birds nest I have in the back of my hair. If only there was a way to fix it. Oh wait, maybe there is?
Heres to the chance at having Kelly Clarkson hair. Now if only they came out with a product to give me her vocal cords..

I had straight hair until the 4th grade. My mom decided to have my long hair cut into a bob. As soon as my beautiful locks met the scissors, my hair we from long and silky to short and frizzy. I may be remembering this wrong, but in my mind that is how it happened. From that day on I have struggled with my kinky/frizzy hair. There were the old lady perms to chemical straightenings that made some of my hair fall out in chunks. I have never had much luck with flat irons. They straighten my hair, but it doesn’t move. So, I’ve been stuck in a time warp putting my hair up in scrunchies for the past 10 years. My mom had been telling me about the Instyler commercials and I didn’t think much of it. The hope of having a modern cut & style was gone. But after seeing the commercial and seeing some ladies with hair JUST LIKE MINE gives me a glimmer of hope again. Could it be that there really is something out there for me? Might I throw these ratty scrunchies out? The Instyler might just be something I’ve been waiting for since the 4th grade.

Ode to my Hair
Oh hair on my head
So frizzy and dry
I can’t do anything with you
You make me want to cry
I’m tired of ponytails
I’m tired of pulling you into a bun
I want to let my hair down
I want to try hairstyles that are stylish and fun
Oh hair you are so mousy
You have no body or shine
I really need an InStyler
Hopefully this contest will make one mine….

Oh being pregnant is so much fun!
Getting to eat extra and skipping my daily run.
My pimples are a clear
every one says “your belly looks so cute dear”
But when I look in the mirror I get a fright
for my hair has become no delight!
Shedding and dull it’s turned overnight
There is never a curl but frizz in sight.
If I had an InStyler it would save the day
because I would have beautiful hair for my baby’s first day!

The Instyler’s a winner,
you look like a sinner.
With styles and curls,
it pleases my girls.
They love the cute style,
that make men stay awhile.
Please let me win.
It won’t be a sin!!

so i’m wondering..does this thing vibrate?
HEYYYY…NO no..what are you thinking about?!?!
I’m wondering if it will massage the hair follicles. I’m trying to get every bit of pampering in that I can.
InStyler, please make me fly.
Transform my hair from brittle and dry
To beauty, *all American* like apple pie!

I love fried chicken, NOT fried hair. The InStyler would make my hair in style instead of this 80’s hair that I have. I need shiny smooth hair instead of this dipity-doo I have now. Some people crave chocolate. I crave the InStyler. Please satisfy my appetite. My hair thanks you in advance.
