Dyson air wrap

The trick to the Revlon dryer is to wait until your hair is 90% dry and then use it. I apply heat protectant, use a regular dryer to get my hair 90% dry first, just blow the hair around until it's slightly damp. Then I use the Revlon. When I do it this way, my hair looks great and stays healthy. If you use the Revlon on soaking wet hair, you will fry it.

Trezoro Ionic 9300- it’s quiet, powerful, fast and $80 versus the Dyson. You must use a leave in hair conditioner for a home blow out… unless you have super flexible shoulders, it’s almost impossible to get the same amount of force as a stylist who can really do the “pull, twist, and smooth” technique.

PP here. Pretty sure I have the double shot, not single shot.

This is what I have. The yellow drybar one. Got it from Ulta. I have thick hair and like it.

I have this rotating hot air brush by BaByliss https://www.ulta.com/p/nano-titanium-2-rotating-hot-air-brush-pimprod2005949

I like that it spins and basically helps me get the "tension" that I am not coordinated to do when I am blowing my hair out with just a hairdryer + round brush. It leaves my wavy hair shiny and smooth. I use it with Kiehls silk groom serum and do it in sections.

I have both the single shot and double shot from DryBar. I got the single shot after I cut my hair just above shoulder length and find I get better "flip" with it than the double. Absolutely love them both. I use a heat protectant. My hair is fine and wavy. Definitely take your time and partition your hair. It is not a time saver but my hair looks very well styled and professional.

The Dyson isn’t faster right? It’s just less damaging? I would pay $500 for faster, but I don’t really care about the damage.

I have the drybar version and it damages my hair. I get better results with a dryer and round brush. I want to try the Dyson. That’s my next splurge!

Amina makes one. And drybar.

I’ve been able to get my hair basically straight with the Revlon but it does feel a bit less shiny than when it’s blown out at the salon. I do agree that the lowest setting possible is key. Also, I have to share; I have been spending more time trying to blow mine out myself and I’ve made a ton of progress! It’s almost as good as the salon if I really take enough time and don’t try to rush it. Very silky and shiny, too.

This. Getting some clips and partitioning your hair so that you can full dry/smooth each section before moving to the next makes a huge difference. I think it's worth the extra time because then I can go longer between washes because my hair looks good for a few days.

I get the rave reviews of the Dyson, but I just can't justify the expense. I might check out the Drybar one though -- I'd been eyeing it for a while and the good reviews on the thread have increased my interest.
