One great bonus of having daughters is that they let you know about awesome new beauty products! My daughter was determined to get a Revlon Salon One-Step Hair Dryer and Volumizer. She'd heard great reviews from a friend at work as well as on YouTube and couldn't wait to try it on her very thick, wavy hair. The dryer is incorporated into a round brush so it both dries and styles (and volumizes!) at the same time. This particular Revlon Pro Collection model was always out of stock due to such high demand but she kept checking and finally snagged one.
Once it arrived we all tried it and were just as convinced as the online testers. It definitely smooths and styles and the ceramic coating and ionic technology help to reduce damage (our hair was so smooth, shiny, and really soft!). There are two heat & speed settings as well as a cool option. The brush is really large and the tangle-free bristles really hold the hair well (so you can pull it taut and help straighten) and the shape of it just gives the most gorgeous results. Depending on which way you position the brush (pulling under towards your neck or outward, flipping up the ends) you can get two different looks. You can also use the brush to dry and straighten the hair by simply brushing normally while drying.
I was so impressed I started checking on-line daily so I could get one for myself and another for my other daughter. Finally, after a couple of frustrating weeks of 'sold out' messages I just happened to refresh my Wal-Mart shopping cart and there it was, the 'limited quantities' disclaimer! I was able to get 2 (I was SO excited to quickly place the order to make sure they were mine!!!) and am so happy to have one of these amazing dryers in my bathroom (daughter #2 was as well!). I don't use it all the time (since I love my ponytail for at-home days!) but when I do, I love the results. The box says it's 'lightweight and ergonomic for maximum comfort and ease of use' but I find it a bit of a beast! It is also very, very hot on the high setting (something I knew from the many YouTube videos I watched prior to purchase), so I use the low setting on my fine, thin hair. The dryer is also quite loud but luckily, it doesn't take long to dry my hair at all! I am very happy with this purchase and if you're interested I would recommend watching the many excellent review and demonstration videos online for more information.
