The dyson I use the dryer, then paddle brush, then large barreled round brush for a first day blow out. The curling barrels on dry hair for second and third day styling. Use at least 5 seconds of cool air before releasing the curl to set it
How long would you say it takes?

Here are my choices:
1) wash it every day and thus dry the crap out of by doing so
2) Don't wash it every day and look like I've been electrocuted days 2-5
3) Blow it out once every 5 days and just give it a brush and go on all other mornings...
I recently discovered THE ANSWER. Fine mist spray bottles! Ulta sells a great one for $12. You mist 2nd or 3rd day curls with water well, re-scrunch. I'm still in process of figuring out which styling or moisture spray makes it even better. Redkin 25 spray is just ok. I don't like BB curl reactivator. Considering trying Aveda texturizing spray plus their spray conditioner. But just water is enough to fix hair mostly.
Tried it. Complicating matters is that my hair is blond. Most products you spray in wind up making it look wet- and thus darker and wetter. I also don’t enjoy how the weather controls my hair styling and that if I rest my head on something for only a few minutes all the curls get separated and frizzy. I don’t like that I can’t wear a hat or can’t deal with wind or rain or draining pasta.
Anyone who thinks natural curls are the effort free solution has clearly never had my hair.
No I feel you. Curly hair makes me high maintenance and I hate that. Weather dictates the hair, workout schedules , etc. it’s so annoying we can’t just be wash and go people. My hair tends to looks frizzy and dry if I add the water mist for a refresher, I tried that.

LOL, yes! This!
And to the PP asking about working out, if I work out and it's not a "hair day", I just wash off my body. Hair only gets washed twice a week.
This. Shower cap baby!
You do realize many black women wash their hair only weekly or biweekly.
But your head sweats and your hair would stink after that sweat funk dries and is slept on again and again. No?

You can do a refresh on non-wash days, with a spray bottle of water, a Wetbrush, and a little extra product (I love Mixed Chicks Daily Hair Dress).

And the round brush+Dryer at least for me doesn’t look as good. I’m not that good at it despite years of practice.
Sorry, I meant Dyani.

I believe the hot tools dryer brush works as well as the revlon but with less heat.

Instead, use a real hair dryer and round brush.
I agree, the revolt dryer seemed great the first two times, but noticed my hair became fried and frizzier. The heat is too intense.
I only use it on the warm/low setting, which is still plenty hot

The Revlon works amazing AND it will cause breakage and damage. It pains me to say that. I use it like 3-4 times a year max because otherwise it will fry your hair off. I have a couple front pieces that to me still don’t look right.
