I have thin hair so I bought the thin hair option which only has the two smaller barrels for curling. The blow dryer attachment was great. The unit itself is very lightweight and a lot quieter than I expected. I have a very heavy babyliss and it’s so loud and so hot. This didn’t get hot at all and I blow dried to 90% dry in about 5 minutes, maybe less. Very impressed. Then I switched to the brush attachment and did my best at brushing out my hair straight. My hair is naturally wavy to curly. After a few minutes with the brush attachment I had a mostly straight hair style. I took the round brush attachment to get the top of my head for a minute or so. I then took the curling barrels and curled the bottom pieces of my hair for body and so far it looks great! No super hot hair or head, no pulling out hair with my brush. I think I lost some hair from the conair brush everyone uses just from it getting caught in the bristles so I’m happy that I feel like I’m doing my hair a favor.
I haven’t fully tried putting my hair in soft curls yet. I wanted to see if I could get my every day look down. No real learning curve but I do think I’ll get better at using with time. My hair took me about 10 minutes to style and I like it! It feels good, looks almost almost very close to a salon blow out, which I think in time I’ll accomplish. If this cuts down my hair styling time by 30 minutes, that’s awesome!
I’m back with another update. So after I did my hair, about 5 hours later it was super frizzy and looked like how it is when I air dry it. I was not thrilled. So basically to fix it I assumed I would have to wet my hair again. My favorite feature was how quick the blow dryer took to dry my hair and how nice it felt but if it doesn’t eliminate the use of my flat iron then I think I’m returning and buying the dryer on it’s own. I don’t wear my hair enough in waves that it justifies using this system vs my beachwaver. I’ll give it another week or so before making my final decision.

I do have the Revlon one step volumizer, and I still am using it, but I think the high heat really damaged my hair..
I couldn't use the Revlon volumizer (which I bought after all the raving on DCUM) because it was frying my hair too.
I bought one that has a high and low setting. It was$20 on Amazon and it's definitely not damaging my hair. You don't need to spend$500 on a hair dryer. There are alternatives out there.
I'm not normally one for pricey items or brand names, etc. But in the case of hair products, especially where heat and electricity are concerned, you get what you pay for. A $20 item is not going to perform as well as a $100 or $500 item. You know how to get beautiful looking hair? By not damaging it.
Just get the $500 hair dryer already. The $20 one works well for me and I have frizzy hair. You obviously want to buy it so go ahead!
