Currently it is a little longer than chin length. It looks terrible unless I blow it out (everyday). With my regular dryer, I go over all of it without a brush to get some of the moisture out, then section and dry by section with a round brush. Using the Revlon dryer on totally wet hair seemed like it would take longer and it was drying weird. So I still did the first step with my regular dryer but then used the Revlon once I sectioned. Do you just hold it still on a section of hair or do you brush it or twirl the brush? Am I using it right?
Initial reaction is I think it may have sped up the process just a little since it has greater surface area drying hair, but probably not enough to justify having to use two different dryers (if I keep the first step with the regular dryer). I can't really just effectiveness on the frizz factor today since it is raining, but my guess is that it is marginally better on that. I can see how it would give someone with flat hair a lot of volume but that's not an issue for me - in fact I usually try to tame the volume a bit.
Anyway, I am undecided on whether the Revlon works for me, but also not sure I am using it right.
Your hair sounds like mine. I let mine air dry a bit-- run around, pack lunch etc. -- and then use it. If it's only chin length, perhaps it's too short for the wider diameter of the brush? I could see how that might be an issue.
