FAULTY Hair Curlers | Can I PERManently Fix Them?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ต.ค. 2024
- This Crazy Beauty Wireless Hair Curling thing is broken. It no longer charges and no longer curls hair. Or something.
Anyway, I suspect a damaged Micro USB port. So let's see if I can get into this device and fix it!
Hope you enjoy!
Steve
PS. I'm not an expert in repairs at all. I do this for fun, and it may not be the best or safest way to go about repairing broken stuff. I'm pretty good at melting plastic though. Please don't copy me - I'm an idiot.

I wonder how much of the world's waste would be avoided if electronics makers actually added just some minimal strain relief to USB connectors
Absolutely! It has to be the most common fault on faulty devices! 👍
If it used through hole it would have been much more robust.
yea but then you wouldn't buy another one after a year 🤔
but that might cost them 0.0001p worth of solder!!😮
The makers want the device to fail. More profits.
A truly beautiful thumbnail 😂
😂 thanks Vince 😂
It's nice to watch this and think: it's not a bad soldering job he's doing. But then you put your finger next to it and see how insanely small the prongs are!! Well done! Love it!
Suns Out! ̿̿ ̿̿ ̿̿ ̿'̿'\̵͇̿̿\з= ( ▀ ͜͞ʖ▀) =ε/̵͇̿̿/’̿’̿ ̿ ̿̿ ̿̿ ̿̿ Guns Out! lately with the currant weather' but no... Steve goes all Bob Ross of electronics! on us all. Jim You're a Legend! & Respect! 👊👍
😂 Thanks brother Steve! Definitely buns out weather next week. I might have to record my next video in my underpants! 🤣
Very interesting! I don't think I would have got that device open without destroying the plastics. You are a legend.
Thanks Tidder! It was really awkward, that's for sure! 😬
OMG Tidder of song fame! 🤣
Your back hair will look amazing very soon.
these videos have the same appeal as the early content i saw from ave where he'd tear down cheap/disposable tools and explain why they're garbage. great content!
This is easily my favorite channel on TH-cam.
Literally leap to click every time I see the notification dot on my subbed list. Keep up the great work. :D
I thought the fume extractor was going to be for the impending burnt perm. So much disappointment. 😂
VO Steve shredding with a vengeance, beautiful!
🤣 I should probably invest in a fire extinguisher too! 😂
Grow your hair out at 80k!!!! 😂 well done!
You are Permanently gettin better , PS your hair too , waitting from your next video repair ,the termafrost , cheers from françe , PERMAcurli , rof ;=)
Love your videos. Hate all the music, singing. 😏 Guess I just want to see repairs
The music is the only reason I am here.
Your hilarious man! You do good work. If only I had that kind of patience!
*you're*
If you can hook up Mike to your computer if you have the RTX graphics card from Nvidia in it you can turn on broadcast studio and it can take off the fan noise and I will hear is your voice it's crazy and it works good and it can do it live
The fact that this device also has a USB output kept me thinking. Every USB chargeable device should have that, so that in case of emergency, you could prioritise and charge your phone from the razor's battery while traveling!
Would you honestly pay about 10$ more for a razor so you’re able to charge your phone with it?
@@timobecker7540 No, absolutely not. But I have been in so many situations where I needed to charge my phone, didn't have any socket or power bank near by, but something like a razor in my toiletry bag. In situations like these, you will be happy to pass on the shave but make that emergency call with a charged battery.
Women sure have too few problems if they have to come up with problems requiring solutions like that thing 😅
U need to blur or black boxing "the blow thing for adults" and reveal it in da end of the video. Be a little in a banana humour)
Stez Stix.....hummmmmm......Did you used to beat the skins for the Champions of Boddingtons and Macclesfields finest :)
That is indeed where my nickname came from! 😬
Why are you copying northbridgfix youtube channel words better than factory and solid you and tronicsfix?
For fun?
@@StezStixFix I think you need to find your own catch phrase, or word, just saying.. i love your videos tho.
Faulty hair. Curlers can permanently fix them
I like to watch you fixing stuff and I like you singing. The bit is cool and the lyrics are funny. Keep it up 👍🏻
Mine charges but it doesn't curler it just gets hot
Hey Steve and Steve fans alike! I'm looking for a certain episode of yours where you fix a device and use a product to fix up a scratched screen. I can't for the life of me remember which device/episode it was, nor which product. I have a slightly scratched up PS Vita I'm looking to fix and I'm shopping around for what product to use.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Love the content and keep it up.
It is the second video with the Neo Geo Pocket (end of the video) and the product name is Polywatch. Beware because apparently there is fake ones selling online
That's clearly Daves Hair Curler.
🤣 spot on!
Repairs aside, that thumbnail is a work of art. It was like seeing you through the lens of a 70s jazz lounge. 😂👍
🤣🤣
fwiw the "port" is caleld a receptable.
I am disappointed you didn't offer the device any hair to curl 🤣
Device not fully tested, for shame. Lol
😂 I was too scared it would remove most of my hair in the process. Still, I guess that would have been entertaining! 😁
i absolutely love ur humor man
Love that VOS has a very good understanding of old school hip hop and clever bars
When in doubt, give it a quick spudge......
BTW, I've been breathing in solder fumes for over 50 years, I quite like the smell, and it has never affected me...
Wibble, wibble...
The thumbnail.
Dude 😆
I love yours Lacoste tshorts 🤩🤩
I'm just so happy you didn't try it on your hair..... Second channel material? Jackassfix? Great video mate. As always 👍
6mins in and 22 comments the mans a legend
My wife has a box of broken personal massagers.
😬
@@StezStixFix 🤔 You want to brush your teeth with them?🫣
Oh cheese and crackers HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA
I really love the thumbnail for this video. You look a bit like Bob Ross. So no more faults for you, just happy little accidents. 👍🏻
I feel like the connector could use some epoxy to hold it down since the anchor points were already lifting. But nice repair nonetheless! Stchupid crazy beauty thing.
Agreed - but be careful with the epoxy. That stuff loves to creep into the jack.
I have no idea why i watch all your videos, i have no interest in repairing electronics whatsoever! But i think ur great steve keep up the rapping and great content. P.s hi dave👋
Thanks sweet cheeks! Dave says Hi! 👋
@@StezStixFix made my day thank you 😊
The fumes sucker is too loud
Can you repair my Fleshlight i think i spilled something inside it.
Easily done 😬
Oh I've seen these -- it's a lasagna to cannelloni adapter, right?
🤣
Oh cheese and crackers! 😂
Absolutely edited in to avoid TH-cam getting upset after a naughty word slipped out 🤣 but an absolute cracker of a choice of sound
I was watching an episode of Mr. Carlson's Lab (highly recommend, however this guy is an expert). There was a curling iron sitting on his chair saying "fix me" left by his wife. So he fixed it before moving on to the actual subject of the episode. Loved this episode.
Hey steve! As a new sub and a nerd through and through, I really enjoy the content you create! I’m looking to do electronic repair as well and I was wondering if you wouldn’t mind making a video about what tools you use? I looked on amazon for just tweezers and the prices vary so much that I’d rather just use the ones that work for you! I hope to hear back from ya brotha. Keep up the awesome work, much love from Texas 🤠
-Spencer
Dude, you just fixed a sex toy 😂
lol, good luck with telling the woman she needs to be gentle with that USB socket!
You mean, 13-year-old girl. These devices are sold to young teens.
Do you accept submissions for fixing? I’ve got a huge battery pack with knackered usb and usb c ports that I can’t use any more, but it would be so easy to sort!
Oh I do love your videos Steve 1 a week is killing me please make more
I don't think this thing is supposed to spin so fast? I just opened up my wife's thingy which is pretty much identical in order to realign the buttons(she dropped it), and it does the same job but is A LOT slower. I don't think she'd stick her hair in to something this fast. I know I wouldn't.
Well on the way to 100k subs
Can see the 100k special being a lady toy. Boom straight to 500k subs
🤣 hopefully, i never have to repair one of them, but you never know! 😬
You have done a Duracell rabbit why not book in a rampant for the 100k special
Cheese and crackers!! 😂
Nopes nope nopity nope nopes
Thank you, thanks to you, I can service people's goods🙏👍, greetings from Indonesia
TH-cam algorithm kicked in ! Watched a few Videos and smashed that subscribe Button ! Love your content. Greetings from Berlin / Germany :-)
...i see what you did there
No idea how a pad would come loose like that, but glad it was still connected, could have been a much harder job.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that jumps straight in trying to pry things open. 🤣
Great video as always.
Ah my favorite Steve is back on to bright my day with weekly knowledge. Sorry if sound creepy.
I got insane
And now I want curly hair
But a serious question, what mid priced digital microscope should one buy?
To be honest... I am just eyes and ears... Almost seen all your videos and really enjoyed them.
Waiting for next challenge... 😁
Cheers
Well, at least it can be used as a power bank… Merci Monsieur !
Merci beaucoup, esseferio! 👍
I am wondering what is the last time you updated the subscribers number in the background... because you have 77,6 k subs and not 72,9k
OMG! I forgot that I had my subwoofer on. My house started to shake when your Patreon song started.
I see, i click, click like, watch, laugh, at end SAD its finished, Looking forward to the next one!
I think I might give a Panda umbrella some Purple LEDs powered by an old Smok prince stick vape.
The fume extractor worked a treat. Thank goodness we were only subjected to words like cheese and crackers. 9:48
Nice! Well done getting that apart in one piece!
I have a Phillips AT890 aqua shave that-won’t power up. Battery seems ok. Bought a new charger. No luck. As it stills does switch on so I am out. If you are interested I would send it to you. Would be interested to see you diagnose it.
oh cheese and crackers
If it's any consolation I'm female and have no Earthly idea what it's meant to be either! Is it a hair curler? Doesn't look like one. But there again I don't bother with stuff like that, takes too much money away from my Transformers/Jurassic budget!
Brilliant job though whatever the hell it is!
Hi Steve, please could you tell me the make / model of your microscope and if possible the company you purchased it from. Great videos keep them coming. Thanks Barry.
My wife's Tribit Xsound Go isn't charging or switching on. I'd love to get it fixed for her, if we can figure a way of getting it to you and collecting it once fixed, would you like to do a video of it?
It really is stupid that the batteries are not accessible to be removed. I mean apart from anything else, you would need to recycle the batteries separate from the other e-waste.
My charging port has broken. Can you fix mine. Please
Nice one.
After all that hard work you deserve a big bag of pork scratchings and a pint of scrumpy.
thank you so much for making this lol AND more importantly not making it boring as F*CK! lol the problem with mine is the little part that the charger goes into detached and is just swimming around in there😩 wish me luck!
My PS2 memory card stopped working so I'm going to fix it myself ! Maybe find a broken one yourself and do a video?
The thumbnail had me 😂 your so funny 👍
So that explains what happened to Nyanners: she inhaled too much solder fumes. If anyone gets this reference without looking it up I'll be impressed.
man. need more lighting at your desktop.. awesome job:) love your content
Can you please fix my wife’s curler… we have the same problem but I don’t know anything about how to use a soldering iron 😅
Nice thumbnail, reminds me of When the Whistle Blows from Extras.
There was barely any solder holding that USB port, no wonder the wear and tear cause the pins in the back to break. Like it's made on purpose.......
yeh nah the music isn't workin for me.
I come solely for the music.
Hey Steve, i am stuck in a issue regarding identification of an IC on my 3 axis gimbal can you help please. Would love to share all the info on the email.
I'll try and help if I can! 👍
Can you share your email?
It's on the 'about' page on my channel. 👍
Is that a pun I see? 🙃
Why didn't repair the broken track (follow where it goes to and scratch/run jumper/etc) and secure it with solder mask or hot glue to reinforce it?
Hairy situation,I'll PERMit you your Wound up Joke 🤣😝
Next they will have Handbags that charge all devices, just drop 'em in and it's lost Forever .
Skip to stay sane. That assumes we were sane in the first place lol . Release your inner Scouse with these !
Hey Mate. I'm from USA and found u 2 nights ago. I been binge watching your channel lol I fix machines on my channel and love every minute, getting something broken , troubleshooting and fixing. Even though we fix different stuff I say we're the same. Your just a bit cleaner lol. Keep up the great content ill be watching. DaVE lol
So enjoy your videos please keep them coming and here to help get your videos out to everyone to enjoy....cheer buddy
I have a Milwaukee 6 x battery 18 volt charger, doesn't do as it says on the label, wonder if you take on paid work?
Is there a community here? Cant seen to find it. Forum, Discord? Looking to share ideas and ask for ideas on a few things and the people that watch Stez seem like the sort of people this would be good for.
I missed an incorrect amount of thermal paste in the video today 😢😢😇
9:49 Hahaha I honestly wish I could hear what you actually said, love how you look at it with disgust twirling around as if the beauty thing was used for something more...naughty. 😂
Hey mate, im glad you have a fume extractor now! I was wondering how you were tolerating the smell. From the videos it looks like you are doing all the repair work in your house and I know how that smell can linger. I have been yelled at from my wife to "take that stinking mess outside!" So here's to the fume extractor working well. Cheers mate!
Hi Blake. Yeah, really glad I got one now, it smells much nicer in that little room! 👍
@@StezStixFix that's good to hear. Also when you turned it on and jumped it had me and my 11 year old son laughing. We really enjoy watching you and please keep making these amazing videos!
Greetings from Brazil!! What’s the name of this fume extractor? Steve, keeps making those videos, I’m learning and laughing a lot!!!
These SMD USB connectors really need a blob of epoxy to strengthen them a bit more.
Yes repairing it would make it harder but they would break alot less.
I’m literally sitting on the edge of my seat here…
…must get round to fixing the backrest 😏
