If you're choosing between a pre-owned electric styling kit and a brand-new manual hair tool set, the main decision is whether you want heat-powered styling or no-heat everyday tools. The pre-owned electric set is built around plug-in heat tools, while the Luumxai set is a compact, manual tool kit. One is a plug-in heat styling set; the other is a pack of combs and loop tools that you can grab on your way out the door. The right pick comes down to the looks you create, the amount of hardware you want, and how you feel about a pre-owned purchase.
Quick verdict: Go with the Luumxai 9pc set for a new, portable, no-heat approach to everyday braids, ponytails, and parting. Go with the pre-owned electric set for heat-based curls, waves, and smooth styles if you're comfortable with a lightly used item.

Where each product wins:
- The pre-owned electric set wins for heat styling: it gives you multiple powered tools in one bundle, so you can switch between waves, curls, and smoother looks without buying separate appliances.
- The Luumxai set wins for portability and new-in-box condition: the nine compact pieces are lightweight, fit neatly in a drawer or bag, and come ready to use with no charging or cord setup.
Product notes
Hair Styling Tools (Electric Set)
At $23.99, this pre-owned kit is the higher-priced option, but it's also the only one with powered styling tools. The set includes a triple-barrel hair waver, a curling iron, and a heated styling brush. If you want to switch between loose waves and defined curls without owning three separate devices, having them combined in one set is convenient. The condition is described as pre-owned, like new, with very light use, and it's sold as a set. Because it's electric, you'll need to style near an outlet and manage cords while you work. If you prefer a brand-new, unopened purchase, the pre-owned condition is the main thing to weigh. For anyone comfortable with a lightly used tool and willing to plug in, this kit offers a broad range of heat styling options.
Luumxai 9pc Hair Styling Tool Set
This Luumxai set costs $15.99 and arrives new in box. It contains nine pieces: six loop styling tools and three parting combs. The loops help with ponytails and French braids, while the combs are useful for sectioning and parting. Since the tools are manual, there's no need to wait for a heater to warm up, and the compact sizes make them easy to carry for work or travel. The set is described for all hair types, and the pink, purple, and black colors make it easy to tell pieces apart. The main limitation is that it cannot produce heat-set curls or waves, so it won't replace a curling iron for heat looks. It's better for no-heat, everyday finishing, and its portable design makes it a simple addition to a gym bag or office drawer.
Final choice by use case
Choose the pre-owned electric set for heat styling routines where you want waves, curls, or a smooth finish and don't mind a lightly used item. Choose the Luumxai 9-piece set for new, portable, no-heat styling for braids and ponytails, especially if you want a complete set of simple helpers rather than electric appliances.
