Look I'm a busy girl living off coffee and sheer panic. I can't waste time On the other hand, I have to appear collected and professional, even though I drive 3 hours into the city every day. What does that mean? I barely have the time (or energy) to make myself presentable at the end of the day, plus I've been "blessed" with one of the most complex hair textures. I completely get rid of unnecessary steps in my routine. Enter this little piece of love. As a Polish-American, I am both appalled and obsessed with German-level efficiency. I just let my hair air dry while I do other chores or work, and then wipe it off before I go to bed. I almost cried the first time I used it knowing it would save me so much time. I spent 15 minutes a night using a Revlon One-Step hair dryer. It was a great tool, don't get me wrong, but cumbersome, noisy and limited in use as my hair was a bit damp. I've always felt like I had to choose the perfect window of not too dry and not too wet to keep my hair looking normal and that really stressed me out. Now I can create my favorite hairstyle in about 6-7 minutes. . The bonus is that it doesn't feel like a chore. When I limit the time to myself, it means a lot. It's a hot brush, so no blow-dry noise. I can listen to a podcast or end a job interview. It means a lot to me, although I'm sure many will think it's a small thing. Also, the results are great. In my photos you can see it half finished. My natural texture on the left and the result on the right and then the full result in the last photo. Nice volume I could get with a hair dryer. My trick is to run the brush under your hair to lift the roots and leave on for about 10 seconds, then run through the ends a few times. I twist the brush near the ends to get big loose curls. I usually divide my hair into two sections in the form of braids and do the roots first and then work the back. Plus, they're easier to touch up than a hair dryer if you've missed something. It's also nice that no hot air blows against you and you don't sweat. The second best part is that if I can't get it to work at night, my hair shouldn't be damp so I can do it in the morning. Whenever I do, I wear a heat protectant on it. Not too much to make hair sizzle, but a little for a nice shine. For reference, I'll use the Hair Texture setting of 355 F. This is the second most popular setting. I was looking for a hot brush with a big barrel to smooth out my unruly mop with volume, so I warn you if you're looking for tighter curls than the ones in my picture, you might want to check out the smaller one. If you're looking for something like what you see in my photos, don't bother with an iron. Get that puppy! Overall I'm glad I found this gem. I just wrote a whole review yelling at you how insanely busy I am so I have time to write this, trust me it's a nice little tool. I also wanted to write this because I know how hard it is to juggle everything when you are busy and trying to make the most of your time while remaining career focused. This can be tricky, and if there's anyone who could benefit from knowing that this little fella is a time saver, it's worth writing down.
