5.0 out of 5 stars I love it!, April 15, 2007

By	Sherry Hanes (NC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

My hair is course & thick w/ some natural curl. I have never had any kind of styler that has made my hair so shiny and sleek. My hair would always have a frizzed dull look before this dryer. This dryer has replaced my hair dryer, flat iron, & brush. I only use this Hot Air Styler and a pick comb. I can have my hair dried and styled in record time! It has a 3 year warranty but if it broke tomorrow, I would immediately order another!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product - I love it!!!!!!!, June 15, 2007

By	N. Albrecht "Amused One" (Portland, OR United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Just received this and am VERY pleased with it. I have fine, thick, naturally curly hair with quite a bit of frizz, especially in moisure. Have combated the curl/frizz all my life - even ironing my hair in the 60's. No matter what product or combination of products I have used to straigten and soften I still would end up with this halo of frizz. This styler has all but eliminated that! It's easy to use - if you can brush your hair you can manage the appliance. And all in all it actually takes less time to dry and style than my old normal routine with blow dryer and flat straigtener. As an added note - originally saw the product in an ad on my browser, clicked on it which took me to the Conair web site. Conair's price was $59.99 plus shipping. Bought new from Amazon.com for $49.99 - with free shipping!! I would highly recommend to anyone and I recommend buying here.

1.0 out of 5 stars Simply doesn't do what it claims to., April 4, 2007

By	Anonymous - See all my reviews

This is the first time in my life I have been inspired to come online and write a review of a product.

When I first saw the ad for this on TV, I thought it sounded like just what I needed. I rushed to the store, but it wasn't even on sale yet. Finally I found it yesterday at walgreen's- and I hate to say- it stinks!

I have just below shoulder length curly hair. I generally throw in some gel and let it air dry- I hate spending a lot of time on my hair. But once in a while I straighten it- which involves blow dry with a round brush, and then using a ceramic flatiron to finish. I am not very good with a hair dryer, and it takes me a long time and I find it awkward managing the brush and the dryer, and I don't do a very good job. Plus then I need to use the iron too, and it takes me a good 30-45 min total.

So I thought this product would be great. All in one! A time-saver! Easier to use!

Well, I was wrong.

First of all, it took about twice as long just to dry my hair as it would with my hairdryer. It's not very powerful. Next, it was barely straight! Even on the "4" setting, there wasn't much tension at all. It left my hair puffy and frizzy and barely straight. So after an hour, I had hair that was not as straight as if I had just dried it alone- and I still needed to use the flatiron.

Don't be fooled. It will NOT give you the flat sleek hair that they picture on the box.

I just hope I can return it.
Guess I will stick with my CHI iron for now.

I *might* try the "long hair" version of this dryer to see if that's any better.
