Conair Quick Twist Hair Braider
I remember seeing commercials for the Conair Quick Twist growing up, and it looked like a QVC-branded torture device even back then. “Create beautiful, twist braids in seconds” is its pitch: Just feed your hair into the rotary gears of this plastic, girl-power-pink styling wand (batteries not included) and pray that it doesn’t rip out every last strand.
Unlike a lot of other gadgets on this list, this one’s still being sold in stores today. Godspeed to any of you brave enough to try it out.
