NP. I'm 12:15 from way upthread. I only use the Revlon dryer brush when I straighten my hair. I do not use any other tools. I have tried many times over the years to use a round brush and hair dryer, to no success. I've had friends try to straighten it that way to no success. Only professionals have enough skill and patience to straighten my thick hair. It is WAY easier to use one tool than two tools (brush and dryer) at the same time, especially when you need to pull the hair to dry it. The Revlon brush enables me to do that. |
DP. Totally agree. I’ve tried the Dyson Airwrap and hated it. It took forever and simply wasn’t hot enough to give a really smooth, silky blowout. The Revlon was far superior for my hair. I use plenty of heat protectant and only blow dry once a week, so I’m not worried about damaging it more than it would be with a regular dryer and round brush. It takes no time at all to use the Revlon on my mostly air dried hair. Not sure why there’s such a ridiculous argument about this - it works great for many of us. |
The argument is around people who are giving a teenager advice to use incorrectly. No one is arguing if it works for some people or not. Being a teenager is so tough, why would you set this kid up for failure. |

I am on my second Revlon Round Blowdry Brush. I threw out my first one because I was using it wrong and it fried my hair.
Had to order a new one because I realized it's amazing on dry hair. With it, I use: Tresemme Heat Protect Spray (the GOAT) R+Co Bleu Highest Volumizing Mousse It's so great. I wash my hair at night and rough dry it or let it air dry before bed. The in the morning, I apply those products and do a quick once-over with the Revlon brush and I'm good to go. |
I’m the PP of that comment and I have no idea who she thinks I am when she says “I asked you on a recent thread” as I have not conversed on any other threads about Revlon blow dryers or blowouts recently … |
Yes, I think it was me she was responding to on the previous thread and then she made fun of my hair 🤷♀️ |
| I love the Revlon thingy and just wish they made a smaller barrel version. The large barrel works with a lot of hair quickly, but I think a smaller barrel would get closer to the scalp. Either way, I love it. |
Have you tried the teal one (v2 or something on Amazon, still revlon). It’s smaller. |
Sorry, 2.0 not v2 |
Oh, you rock! I didn't know that existed. Thank you so much! |
One of the reviews from Amazon - too funny!
"I have a lot of hair. A LOT. Like, wow, who is that Wookiee over there LOTS. I have looked into having a third arm surgically implanted (Is this a thing? Who would do it? Vascular surgery? Orthopedic surgery?These are the questions that keep me up at night🤔) because my shoulders are so tired holding up a dryer and a round brush for eternity. I briefly considered making a workout video (“Toned Arms: the Hairdryer Workout”), but was informed by fitness people that there isn’t a market for a 75-minute focus on the anterior deltoids. I almost have to wake up BEFORE I GO TO SLEEP in order to have enough time to dry my hair before work. This thing took me 8 minutes. I naturally assumed, upon finishing, that I had entered some sort of Amazon-created beauty time warp. I checked with my husband, in the next room, and in fact I did not go through a blowout wormhole. The silkier-than-silk style was accomplished by this miracle of a brush in 8 minutes (several more minutes were lost to running my hands through my hair and flicking it over my shoulder while smiling coquettishly in the mirror). If you struggle with an over abundance of hair like I do, seriously consider giving this amazing contraption a try." |
I started using this spray about a month ago based on a recommendation here (another thread - maybe this PP) and wow it’s made a huge difference! Unless you have thin and highly resilient hair please do not use on soaking wet hair - it would take forever and get way way too hot |
I have that WOW spray, but didn’t know it could be used as a heat protectant? |
I have medium thickness, wavy to curly hair and it works great for me. Either after a rough dry or after overnight air drying with argon oil or a leave in conditioner. If you don't have curly/wavy hair, you won't understand why wanting smooth and manageable hair is a big plus. |
They make a round barrel one that is just amazing and even better than the original. |
