This smart curling tool combines power and care for effortless styling and healthier-looking hair.
Let’s be honest—using a traditional curling iron can quickly turn into a nightmare. Between tired arms, burnt strands, and curls that don’t hold, it’s easy to feel like giving up. But the TYMO CURLPRO Automatic Rotating Curling Iron promises to change everything. Curious to see if it lives up to the hype, I tested it on my own hair (medium-length) and my daughter's (long and thick).
She’s actually the one in the photos—taking pictures of myself while using the device wasn’t exactly simple. I also wanted her to try it herself after I showed her how, to see if it would be suitable for people who aren’t used to curling their hair.

Using the TYMO CURLPRO Automatic Rotating Curling Iron
There are different models of the TYMO CURLPRO. This one is a 1-inch automatic rotating curling iron. Thanks to its one-click rotation system, you just place a strand into the opening, press the button, and the iron does all the work for you. You barely have to do anything—the strand wraps itself automatically.
A second button changes the direction of rotation, so you can curl each side of your head correctly.
It’s particularly lightweight and compact, making it easy to take on trips. It also offers three adjustable heat settings, changed by pressing the power button.
TYMO CURLPRO Automatic Rotating Curling Iron product specs:

- 360° anti-burn design
- Three heat levels

This model is corded, unlike some other rechargeable versions from the same brand.
TYMO CURLPRO Automatic Rotating Curling Iron pros:
The device is extremely easy to use—perfect for beginners or anyone who struggles with styling tools. You simply can’t mess up your curls since the device wraps each section evenly on its own.
The result? Perfectly defined curls that are all exactly the same size. Since they’re fairly tight (1-inch diameter), they hold well while staying soft throughout the day. The barrel size works great for medium-length hair like mine.
Because the heating element is enclosed within the barrel, there’s no risk of burns (to your fingers or face). It’s also travel-friendly and has an average user rating of 4.5 stars.
TYMO CURLPRO Automatic Rotating Curling Iron cons:
With only a 1-inch barrel, the curls it creates are beautiful but quite small. If you have long or very thick hair, you’ll likely need to work in multiple sections for the best results, which will take longer. If your strands are too thick, the curling mechanism may tangle and won’t be effective.
Since you have to place the strand directly in front of the opening for it to wrap properly, it can be a bit confusing in front of a mirror to position it correctly. It just takes a few tries to get the hang of it.
If you prefer loose, natural-looking waves, this tool may not be for you. Because the TYMO CURLPRO is automatic, you can’t vary the curl style as you go. In that case, a larger clip curling iron might suit you better.
Do I recommend it?
The TYMO CURLPRO is smart, effective, and intuitive—clearly designed to make curling hair accessible to everyone, even those who dread using a curling iron.
If you don’t curl your hair often, it can definitely be a valuable tool in helping you create perfect, consistent curls. You’ll also appreciate its lightweight build, which makes it a great travel companion.
That said, if you have long, thick hair, this may not be the most efficient option for you. The same goes if you prefer looser, irregular waves.
