I bought my Remington "wet 2 straight" hair straighteners yesterday, and as I have very thick hair, have used them 3-4 times already.
When the straighteners are at the correct temperature, they "beep" to tell you they are ready to use. Although today, I turned them on again, and the beep sounds distorted, almost like a battery dying? Yet they are mains only.

I'm worried they are on their way out already?? Can anyone please help?

sounds like a badly connected internal wire. Get a local electrician to do a multi meter check on it. try not using them, might cause a power fuse.
