Product reviews of Conair Hot Air Curling Combo, 1.5 Inch (Color May Vary)
Review: A must-have for your styling gadget stable...
Beauty product: 5 Stars
I've used this product for years. This is the second one I've purchased. My first one died (RIP) after several years of regular use. If you have fine, straight hair like me and you want that perfect bob or you just want to add a whole-lotta volume to your layers, this is the gadget for you! Just make sure you have dried your hair almost completely with the blow dryer prior to use as this doesn't really work on super wet hair. The barrel is fairly large and isn't really the thing for short hair, either. I generally use the brush attachment. In fact, I don't even know where the iron attachment is at the moment. No more messing with boar bristle brushes while you're trying to blow dry! (My arms are sore just thinking about that!) Just let it be messy while you dry, then fix it all up with the Hot Air Curling Combo. Use a little mousse or gel and brush your hair out once prior to blow drying. You don't want to have to deal with huge snarls while you're using this thinger-bobber. Review: Adds shine (by smoothing cuticle) and bounce - NO FLAT HAIR
Beauty product: 5 Stars
I can't STAND stick-straight hair. I prefer my hair to have a little volume, movement, bounce, and shine. Flat irons do just what they say - make it FLAT. Can't stand those. I have naturally curly hair. But, it isn't so curly that I can't straighten it now and then. When I do, I use a Conair Ion-Shine 1875 blow dryer with a Bio Ionic Extra Large round brush. I have to say, the brush DOES make a difference. The the best finishing touch is this Conair Hot Air Curling brush. It, seriously, smooths the cuticle, making my hair much shinier and smoother but with a flip at the bottom (over or under - whichever you prefer). I use the bigger size of the two brushes. The small one doesn't work as well with my hair (it's about 2 or 3 inches past my shoulders). In order to achieve the shiny results, you have to use this section by section, a little at a time. Roll it and hold it for 10 seconds. And make sure you let the hair cool before brushing it. I don't use ANY styling products on my hair when I style it straight because of the Hot Air Brush. I don't NEED them. So, my hair stays cleaner longer since I'm not putting "goop" on it.
I've been using the Conair Hot Air Brush for - literally - 15 years. I simply could NOT do without it. I must carry a spare at all times just in case the one I'm using decides to finally poop out. ;)
Oh, and as a side note: I recommend (1) making sure you give yourself enough time to go through the whole process (don't rush) and (2) start with the TOP of your hair, NOT the BOTTOM. Whenever I go to a salon, they ALWAYS dry my hair starting from the bottom and working their way UP to the top. I find that, if I do it that way, I always end up with "kinks" in my hair (same thing happens at the salon) and my hair ends up flat. If I style it from the top down, I never have that problem. I do one side at a time, working my way from top to bottom; flipping the hair over each time I straighten a portion. After I've done both sides, I do the back the same way.
Review: Also works on fine, curly hair
Beauty product: 4 Stars
I have medium length, naturally curly hair that's fine, not thick. I usually let it dry naturally, but this appliance is so easy to use. The brush doesn't tangle your hair up like other brush-dryers do (my last piece of Vidal Sasson garbage). The curling iron attachment uses hot air rather than heat, which is much better for your hair. Works really well, one of the best dryers I've used and MUCH better than holding a brush and a blow dryer! Review: Are you a multitasker?

I am pleased with this product. It saves time on my hair and leaves one hand free to drink coffee or apply makeup. Review: Best Hair Styling Tool Ever!
Beauty product: 5 Stars
I have fine, naturally curly hair. This appliance has been a godsend for me. It's tough to get salon results on your own with a blowdryer and brush, but this appliance makes it so easy. I never leave home without it. It's quick and easy and leaves my hair with bounce and shine. I absolutely love it. My local stores don't carry it, so I am overjoyed to have found it on Amazon.
