Hair Dryer Brush, MiroPure Hot Air Brush One Step Hair Dryer & Volumizer Brush Blow Dryer Styler for Straightening, Curling, Salon Negative Ion Blow Dryer Brush Rose Gold

Ok, I admit I was skeptical when ordering this drying brush. I was already a devoted fan of my MiroPure heated styling brush, which is my absolute FAVORITE invention of the prior decade, but ultimately it relies on my hair already being dry. So -- enter, the DRYING BRUSH!It's much lighter than I thought it would be, and the handle grips are well-positioned. I started with freshly-washed, towel-damp hair and gave it a thorough test drive; here are my thoughts:1. I have a lot of long hair. My arm did eventually tire after I was about 2/3 of the way through drying. I think I would benefit from letting my hair air-dry a little bit before pulling this out, but it did ultimately do the whole job and saved me some time and using multiple products!2. The volume of air coming out of the brush was hot enough with plenty of velocity to dry the sections I was pulling the brush through, however it's not really fair to compare it to a normal hair dryer because the motor is understandably smaller in this device. Does a regular hairdryer move MORE air? Yes. Does that matter when evaluating this drying brush? Not really.3. I like the grips and the different settings, though I found I mostly used the highest air and heat setting (because of all my aforementioned, wet hair)!! It took me about 10 minutes to figure out the best amount of hair to pull through the brush, and ultimately, it did yield very nice results!4. My hair was finally dry and sleek and shiny (of course I added some lovely-smelling protectant spray first), and I would say I was impressed that such a compact device could do the job of drying AND styling my hair all in one fell swoop.In conclusion, I think if you have some patience and learn how to use this device on damp hair, you will get FAST and attractive, sleek results. If you use it on very wet, long hair, it's gonna take awhile -- but ultimately, it does what it promises, and I can see it will become a very useful styling tool in my routine -- especially since I don't usually try to dry my wet hair immediately after showering; there's usually a time gap when I'm putting on makeup, looking at my phone, wasting time, etc. :)

The media could not be loaded.  EFFECTIVEI really love this brush. I always use this instead of regular brushes. First, the brush is huge!! Watch my video. Literally, I comb through a handful of hair at a time. This is a big plus because the brush-dryer gets the job done fast. But, I want to point out that this brush does NOT replace a regular dryer. Using a traditional dryer is definitely faster at drying hair. This is what I use for straightening hair.NO INJURYUnlike hair irons, I do not have to worry about accidental burns.VOLUME + STRAIGHT HAIRI don't have to sacrifice hair volume to straighten my hair. When I use hair irons, hair straightens out, but I end up with "paper" like hair. This isn't necessarily a problem because hairstyles come in many forms and preferences, but there are at times when I want to add volume without having curly hair. This perfectly addresses that need.ROTATING CORDThe rotating cord is definitely a plus. Styling hair involves alternating the equipment in various positions. The cord does not fray with use, and it is just convenient because I can focus only on my hair.QUALITY TESTEDOne thing I always look for in electronic devices is third-party testing. It's not common to hear electronic house appliances blowing up on people's faces, but it's not unheard of, and I do not want to take the risk of burning my hair or face. Also, I prefer third-party certifications because I get to know that whatever is inside the product is what the seller promises. This product comes with ETL certification. It's not as good as UL certification. But, I use it with confidence that this product won't catch fire in use.WORTH THE VALUEAt the time of writing, I got this at around $35. I found this to be a reasonable price compared to other products that claim to do the same. Also, I use this very frequently, and if I think about the HOURS it saves me, OMG, $35 is such a great investment.

My opinion may change later depending on later usage, but so far, the brush blow drys pretty well, but since my hair is 4c natural it takes time to get it to a desired state for pre straightening. However, compared to a normal hairdryer, this takes wayyy less time, especially because it's designed to hold like an actual brush you would brush your hair with, and not some awkwardly shaped nozzle you have to maneuver around in order to use it properly like with a normal hair dryer. The brush is bigger than I thought it would be, tho, so it's kind of hard to hold in relation to my short hair. However it does what it's supposed to do! Easier alternative than trying to maneuver a blow dryer, for me. (Will post photos later, and will update review if necessary).I was worried the bristles with the little beads on them would snag at my hair and irritate me (because on the normal smaller hair brushes of the same kind, I can't use them because it hurts when I do, snagging strands and feeling like a rake went through my head), but they surprisingly didn't do anything negative! The brush glided through my detangled hair just fine. The one star off is just for the dryer being a little big and hard to hold sometimes, but other than that, it works great! And I think I can recommend this to other fellow Natural and/or 4C haired peeps. Make sure to use Heat Protectant of some sort before using! I made sure to, because I'm not about to risk heat damage on my natural hair.**Photos now available for reference** (First photo is after my hair is washed, detangled, and about 80% dry. Second and Third photo is after I use this blow dryer with views from the front and the side)**Edited because photos saved out of order**(Second picture is the 'first photo', and the first and third photos are after using the blow dryer. But I feel like it would be pretty obvious which ones are the before and after, lol, just wanted to clarify just in case XD)
