If you know Cloud Nine, then you know all about the multi award winning Original Iron. It’s the hair straightener that gave the hair care brand worldwide fame for their innovative flat iron technology and professional styling techniques. However, while we still absolutely adore the Original Iron, there is a new kid in town and we are pretty impressed. Introducing the Cloud Nine Touch Iron - the latest straightener to join Cloud Nine’s collection that has taken the world by storm.
Essentially the C9 Touch Iron is the more affordable alternative to the Original Iron, however this isn’t to say it’s not an equally incredible hair straightener - in fact some may even argue that it’s better??
3 Incredible Features of the Cloud Nine Touch Iron
1. Instant Heat, Instant Style
The Touch Iron is the world’s first automatic hair straightener - but what does automatic mean exactly? Well, Cloud Nine have created the first buttonless straightener, which means it heats up all on its own. They’ve removed the On/Off switch so that all you need to do is plug in and go. The Touch Iron will instantly heat up, eliminating the heat up time that all other hair straighteners have.
With automatic heat up, this makes the Cloud Nine Touch Iron perfect for quick touch ups or busy on the go women. Instant heat, instant style.
2. Touch Temperature Control
The Touch Iron has two temperature settings for different hair types - 165°C and 195°C degrees. But, as an automatic hair straightener with no buttons, you might be wondering how you control these heat settings? Keeping with the theme of making your life easier, Cloud Nine has reinvented temperature control with yet another world first feature.
After plugging in your Cloud Nine Touch Iron, it will automatically heat up to 195°C degrees, however if you wish to decrease the temperature to 165°C quickly touch the plates together three times. Yas it is that simple. No buttons, no dials - just a few taps. By touching the plates together twice you will then increase the temperature back to high again.
QUICK STYLING TIP
How do I know what temperature is best for my hair type?
- If you have fine or chemically treated hair then style at the lower temperature setting (165°C degrees)
- If you have thick, coarse or extra curly hair then style at the higher temperature setting (195°C degrees)
3. Mineral Infused Ceramic Plates
The Cloud Nine Touch Iron includes the signature mineral infused ceramic plates that deliver a great experience and super smooth hair. No snagging or pulling, the renowned black ceramic plates will glide through your hair for a silky, shiny finish. Tame unruly hair, straighten out tight curls and create beautiful, voluminous waves. The Touch Iron delivers salon quality hair and endless styling options faster than ever.

As we said earlier, the Touch Iron is the more affordable alternative to the Cloud Nine Original Iron. We even posed the controversial idea that it could be the preferred choice for some…
