I had high expectations, having agonized over the price and if it was worth it. I wish I had bought one the day it came out. I have struggled with very frizzy/curly hair my whole life, and I have never ever been able to dry my own hair and not needed to follow up with a flat iron or curling iron. This product means I am done so much sooner, and with so much less damage. I could not recommend this highly enough.
I got this tool twice. This first time I returned it. And it was an impulsive decision. But I saw so many videos and after six months I decided to give it another chance. And I am in love. Can't remember what I did wrong for the first time. But I get a great result now.
Pros of this were that it's great having to use only one styling tool. It also didn't leave the top of my hair frizzy at all and no fly aways. Huge con for me was that, although it wasn't frizzy at the top, the bottom of the hair, the ends were like straw....it was dry and looked so so damaged. I watched tutorial videos on so many different sites to see what I was doing wrong. Same result every time. I did have to return it. Maybe it's just not for me because I've seen other rave about it. One of my daughters loved it though so that's good. I'd say try for yourself to see if it works for you.
I bought this a few weeks ago and I’m very happy with the purchase. I had been looking and thinking about how to justify the price. I have fine hair but enough of it, so my hair is not thinning or hard to manage. Even though my hair is pretty straight, it’s not straight enough to wear after letting it air dry so I always do something to it, which requires drying because I wash my hair everyday.
First day I got it i tried it, and as you may have read it it’s quite heavy. However, once you use it a few times it gets easier. I do not love how heavy the cord is, but the tool itself makes up for any negatives regarding weight. I’ve used it several days in a row and my hair looks quite healthy. I haven’t tried it on dry hair or using the cold air so that will be what I do next but I can honestly say it does a great job. I don’t love the very sleek straight look, and this does give you a little volume which I like a lot!
As far as time goes I’ve been able to straighten from wet in about or just under 10 minutes which is great. Even though I don’t have a thick head of hair the blow dry and straighten before always took me longer.
If you are on the fence and often straighten your hair, I would invest. I love mine and haven’t used any other hair tool since I got mine!
