The L'Oréal SteamPod 3.0 under test

As promised in our last SteamPod blog post, we've summarized our experiences with L'Oréal SteamPod 3.0 for you in this post.

But first, for those of you who haven't yet experienced SteamPod 3.0, here's a short explanation. The SteamPod 3.0 is a styler for straightening hair. The innovative and unique feature of this electric appliance is its steam technology. Steam technology delivers continuous steam for perfect straightening results, making hair much gentler and more manageable. Very characteristic of the SteamPod is the unmistakable shine that the hair gets. An integrated comb distributes the hair evenly across the ceramic plates during straightening. Water vapor flows from nozzles on the side. The cable is rotatable, which makes it very comfortable to use and even allows you to create waves and curls. Care products specially adapted to the SteamPod complete the range. For even more detailed information, please take a look at our blog post about the SteamPod 3.0.

We have been testing the SteamPod 3.0 for about a month now. We have used SteamPod Smoothing Serum and the SteamPod Replenishing Milk as additional care products. The hair was washed and dried during our test.

The before/after images show the results after the hair was straightened. In an application video you can see how easily even small waves can be conjured into the hair.

Just in advance - I am thrilled! The hair can be straightened very quickly and easily and curls or waves are no problem. What I really like about the SteamPod is that after using it, the hair feels incredibly light, soft and well-groomed. There is no evidence that the hair has been damaged by the heat. The hair is also incredibly shiny. The smoothed texture lasts so I was able to style my hair the next day without having to use the SteamPod again. I smoothed my hair on the middle level at 200°C and used the SteamPod Protective Smoothing Serum.

I was very excited about the SteamPod as I have been using a ghd straightening iron exclusively for the last 10 years and could not imagine that any other styling tool could excite me as much. But then I used the SteamPod and I was immediately thrilled. I only use it to straighten my hair because it's much quicker and easier for me. The SteamPod has a comb on one side in front of the plate, so you don't have to use a brush to straighten your hair. The steam makes your hair feel smoother and you don't feel like your hair is "suffering" at all. The steam provides the hair with moisture during straightening and you can clearly feel this. For me it is clearly a new favourite in the bathroom and I can't imagine life without it!

Have you already tested the SteamPod? We think it's very exciting to see what experiences you've had with the steam straightener and whether you're as excited about it as we are. We would be delighted to receive your experiences and opinions as a review under the L'Oréal Professionnel SteamPod 3.0! If you still have questions, you can also post them there.
