If you are keeping up with the days of my life, I mentioned in a previous post that my precious hairdresser recently told me my hair was too dry. I started using the Joico K-Pak Deep Penetrating Reconstructor, and really could see a difference in my hair. So, I tried to not use the curling iron or hot rollers as much, but I’ve never been really good at blow drying and holding the big brush at the same time. I remembered years ago being at a seminar with my boss, and she used a hot air brush, so I decided to give it a whirl and purchased John Frieda Hot Air Brush, after reading many reviews and looking at many price points. These puppies can go as high as $100. The John Frieda Hot Air Brush does the trick, and is under $30. Score. I let my hair get about 80% dry with the blow dryer, and then style the rest with the hot air brush. I went to my hairdresser last week and she complimented me on how great my hair looked!!!! Um, hello! I think that’s the first time that has ever happened! So it’s not too poufy, and not too flat, just like Goldilocks, it was just right! And, I’ve gone to Robin for about 30 years, and that is the FIRST time she complimented me when I was coming, instead of when I was going! Granted, most times I look like a hot mess anyway because I am long overdue for highlights and a cut!
Talk about easy! So much easier than blow drying and then rolling! And the end result is soft, smooth, styled hair. It’s a definite find for me.
Oh my, I SOOOOOOO need to try that! Thanks for the great tip TAC!!!

Might have to try it. Although my hair is so fine and thin that I usually have to curl with my “special” curling iron.

Stephanie my hair is very limp – but if you put a little spray on the brush it holds – i do the same thing with the curling iron. What is your “special” curling iron?

Nothing really special about it. I’ve had it for years and pray nothing happens to it. Comfort of being set in my ways but I am going to get one of these and try it.
