I have wavy hair. I’ve been wearing it more curly recently and wanted one tool that would give me options. I’m also not great with a hairdryer. This dries my hair in about 75% of the time needed by my hairdryer. Using the hairdryer part first then switching to the drying brush and then finishing for some volume with the round drying brush. Haven’t mastered the curling tool yet but use my straighteners for that anyways. All in all great product. Makes styling my hair less of a chore.
I can’t say enough good stuff about this styler! I’ve always straightened my hair and it just hasn’t really done the job for my postpartum hair growth and loss. I got this styler to help reduce hair loss and improve the condition of it and I’m sure it’s helped every aspect of my hair from frizz, baby hairs, smoothness and appearance. It’s super easy to use, it takes me about ten to 15 mins max to style it properly. What’s even better is that it stays the way it has been styled for a few days after too! Would highly recommend!
Was intrigued by the buzz around a hot brush and saw this one described as a dupe for the Dyson Airwrap (and a fraction of the price). Bought on offer – definitely wouldn’t pay full price for it, btw. Seems to be more powerful than other similar products and did think it dried my hair reasonably quickly, and my hair felt soft afterwards.
Watched a couple of tutorials online, definitely don’t use it to its full potential but use it with the paddle brush type attachment to dry my hair – have tried to style as I dry but with mixed results and not fussed to persevere, so maybe with practice you can get better results. I tended to dry it enough to either further style with other tools or to tie it up.
It does get very hot – be warned – and can get uncomfortable using it given how powerful it is (the hand not holding it, that I was using to try and style as I dried, got blasted with such heat I would have to pause and change position!) I used it to dry my children’s hair – worked like a charm on my long-haired 6yo but was too much for my short haired 3yo.
My Dyson hairdryer is slowly giving up the ghost after about 6 years – I don’t think this will replace it but it is a useful backup for the times the Dyson cuts out mid-blowdry will be replacing it with another dryer when the time comes for it to pack up altogether, this doesn’t come close.
My hair is so smooth and friz free when I use this dryer. Don’t even need to use straighteners. I absolutely love it!
1st the hair dryer function is good and relatively quite so dried excess hair off so far so good now the down side is that the changeable head is very hot with removing to put the other attachments on.
2nd the brush function is good it made my hair very straight as good as straightners, not much frizz or fly away hair.
3rd now this is where my issue is again changing between heads they are hot, but the curling wand didn’t do anything for me I tried several times to do it and was not impressed. The main reason for buying this as it had all the attachments that I thought I would need, also its lightweight enough for travel which is a good bonus, but after trying several curling items that were not suitable for arthritic hands this was much more a friendly item.
Overall it is a good item but not for me as I could not curl hair now maybe that’s my hair or that im a novice in curling but my big issue is the heads being too hot to interchange quickly, so I am returning it but again it is a good hair dryer for travelling.
Very easy to use and it works perfectly with my hai
I bought this for my wife and she thinks it’s very good
Overall great product, has replaced my dryer and my curle
ot the best on the market, but definitely the best value for money in my experience
Easy to use, good drying power and does not frizz my hair.
For the price nothing not to like. It might not be powerful enough for some people depending on the length and thickness of hair. It’s really easy to hold and overall a great styler. My hair is mid length and I have only used the round brush tool which gives my hair lots of volume. No need to use my straighteners now.
Now, I have bought and returned/discarded many a hair gadget in my 40 odd years and I wasn’t quite sure if I could make this one work for me.
I have just used this on my shoulder length bob style hair (it’s quite thick, unruly and very frizzy if left to it’s own devices). At first I used the normal drying attachment, granted it’s not as powerful as my regular hairdryer but it was doing the job. I then changed to the large round brush (I don’t know the official name for it!) and I was blown away with how good it was. No need for hair straightener and hair is not frizzy at all! This will no doubt change the way I style my hair from now on. It’s so easy and effective. I have yet to try out the other attachments but I’m not feeling the need for returns label!
I will say I only paid 28 for it so I am a very happy with my purchase.
It is really easy to change attachments and once connected its surprisingly light, in spite of visual dimensions. I’ve test run all of the attachments, all great, my favourite are the round brush + curling wand. Pleasantly surprised with it and I would definitely recommend it.
On overall, well done BaByliss.
The straighter though isn’t great . It definitely does not replace a hair straighter like I was hoping after reading reviews . So if you don’t need a new hair dryer and want this for straighter then it’s not worth i
But with this babyliss hair styler, I could style my hair without worrying too much about the heat. I could actually straighten my hair in five minutes. The bristles in the styler are also gentle to the scalp and they are made of a pretty sturdy material so I guess it will take time for them to break unlike with other products. Haven’t really explored using the curler since I find it kind of difficult, maybe it’s better to use the curling iron for curling. But might work for some with a little practice. Anyway, I find it very useful I actually use it everyday, keeps my hair tamed. Although my hairstyler found my hair a little bit dry because I use this everyday, so if you’re gonna use this everyday, I suggest you also do some hair treatments regularly. Overall, 5/5.
My daughter is at an age where she will be taking more notice of her appearance soon and will want more independence with showering, drying hair etc. So I bought this for her birthday but was a little worried about the larger brush after reading some of the reviews.
We both have short bobbed hair and I’m even using this on my hair now (with her blessing), as it does a great job and is much more convenient (and lighter) than the hair dryer. The larger brush is actually perfect for both of us.
Downsides: it gets very hot and I have to be careful around her ears so I don’t catch them, because understandably it burns. I have to turn it in my hands as I work through the hair and keep catching the control switch and switching it down low of even off, which is not the end of the world but is annoying/frustrating!
I do wish there were two gloves as I do have to keep swapping it over to the other hand as I move around my hair. It gets too hot to use it without the glove.
Despite the downsides, I would happily recommend this product.
So i went for this option as it’s of similiar price 35.99 currently on offer, and apparently does the drying and the styling.
Now i have mixed feelings about this hair dryer – i want to be in love with it but I’m not.
Round brush head – 3/5
Doesn’t rotate by itself and as i said i am no good at styling. I find that if i roll the brush up manually then unwind again it leaves my hair frizzy -and if i pull the brush down doesn’t quite give me the same bounce as the big hair did. (I added a picture to show you what I mean) I do however prefer the bristle on this as it will catch and pull lesser hair.
Perhaps I need some more practicing with -although I’m not entirely convinced on it
The flat brush head – 5/5
This one took me by surprise. Infact it actually beats the round brush head as it dryed my hair beautifully at the roots. I have coloured hair growing out so my roots tend to stay wet for longer and so this brush worked perfect. I didn’t get a bouncy blow dry effect but it dryed my hair gently without need of a seperate brush.
Dryer tip 5/5 –
This is also good. Similiar to the flat brush it does wonders for drying. It is also much lighter than you average hair dryer – and the air flow is better if you want to dry your roots first – or roots only and head out.
Curling tong 2/5 –
Takes alot of time. Didn’t work for me or rather I don’t have that sort of patience. Perhaps it’s because of my hair but honestly if you are looking for air styles-do you really want hot copper on your hair? Or maybe you do.. it’s ok But in my opinion this isnt efficient.
Heatproof gloves 5/5 –
A very pleasant addition. Perfwct size and not too thick so you can still run fingers down hair without making it greasy and hold tip of heads.
So all in all – if this lightweight styler had the ability to rotate like big hair then i would be jumping up and down with joy and raving about this as it would be the only thing I use. My sole purpose was to make space in my drawer but now i have an extra thing to make space for.. haha.
I am giving it a four star because it is hard to find a styler with 1000watts as they usually are 700-800watts. The extra power on this is what Makes it possible for your to dry your hair. I think if you are comfortable styling with a round brush then this will not disappoint you. The cord is the same length as the big hair – the switch button is easier to use in this than big hair as it doesn’t get stuck.
Also I trust babyliss over the very cheap china alternatives thats found here.
Sorry about the long review but hopefully you’ll know what to expect now and hope it helps you make a decision.
Happy hair!!!
Pros:
– The fact that it’s lightweight and straight – not angled like a traditional hairdryer – means it’s incredibly easy to use
– Being straight and with easily clipped on/off parts, it’s really easy to pack when travelling
– The smoothing brush left my hair really smooth and “blow dry” sleek; really recommend that one
– Being a brush/dryer combo, it was way easier to use and no wrist cramp compared with holding the brush separately
– The volumising brush did work too, though not one I’d use often as it was a little fiddly for me
Cons
– The curling wand style attachment didn’t work for me at all
– The hairdryer option doesn’t pack enough punch; I have long, thick hair, and it takes c.10 minutes to get it 70% dry enough to use the brush attachments
All in all a good product for the price, but would be worth investing in a more powerful model if one comes out (and don’t bother with this for the curling attachment!)
