Conair 2-in-1 Hot Air Curling Combo, Includes 1.5-inch Curl Brush and 1-inch Aluminum Bristle Brush

I love this specific hair styler. The oval ones put a weird curl but you can control the curl with this round dryer. I had one for about 10 years and it finally died. So I ordered another one

I purchased this product to replace a Conair Hot Curling unit that was probably 10 years old. Let me be clear that the reason that the old product lasted so long was that I rarely used it until about a year or two ago-mainly because I wasn't using it properly and my hair was longer and styled differently.My hair is now just shoulder length, in lots of layers. My hair is very fine and if left to air dry will have some natural waves to it. It is color treated and very "fly away".I use this product as follows: After towel drying hair, I always use a leave-in product (I have used very expensive variations and I am happy to report that my favorite it currently a bargain, Loreal EverPure Smooth Frizz-Free Serum). Then I dry my hair on the lowest heat setting (yes, it takes a little longer but it makes a big difference) with my regular hair dryer and a round boar bristle brush. Important: do not dry completely-ends should be dry but hair should still feel very slightly damp near your scalp. I really do not style my hair at all at this stage with the brush it's just that the boar bristles will mimimize breakage while creating lift when brushing the roots up and away from the scalp.Now I am ready for the Conair 1.5. I like the barrel with the shorter bristles, it seems to work better with fine hair. THIS product will NOT make your hair curly NOR do you want to try and dry your hair with it. This product will give you volume and smoothness with ends curled under or up. I use only the high heat setting because it is not very hot. Again, my hair is just shoulder length, so I just brush a section of hair from the roots to the ends and roll it half to two thirds the way up, hold it for ten seconds and unroll. I don't "pull the brush" through.If you want a very smooth look, after finishing each section, lightly brush and use a light hair spray. If you want a more "unkempt" effect, after styling each section, allow hair to cool and style with your fingers, then spray. If you want curlier hair, keep your hair dryer handy. After the "10 second curl" turn the Conair off while your hair is still "rolled up" and blow cool air directly onto the barrel from your dryer for a few seconds until hair is cooled then unroll.I also purchased the Conair BC171CS Ceramic Ionic Hot Air Brush 1.25 Conair BC171CS Ceramic Ionic Hot Air Brush, Black, 1.25 Inch inch at the same time I purchased this one. As I mentioned, my product that died was very old and I wasn't sure which one would work best for me so I just went for both of them.I do not like 1.25 inch for myself nearly as much because: It seems to get too hot, even on the lower setting. My hair is color treated and too fine for this much heat. If you try it, you may want your hair more damp. I also do not like the size of the barrel. I have small hands and it is very unwieldy. It will "curl" your hair to a greater degree and may work well for certain hair types. I did not send it back but would recommend with caution.When making this purchase on Amazon, I noted that one reviewer raved about the difference in the "ionic" feature. I noticed zero differnce, perhaps because the higher heat of this unit cancelled out any "ionic" benefit for my hair type. If I had it to do over, I would have ordered two of the 1.5 and saved one of them until the one I am currently using dies. I love it and highly recommend for my hair type.

I bought it as a gift. My sister is pleased with it and .

I’ve used this curling dryer for many years. Amazon sent me one that had previously been returned by someone else. The problem with it was the high power selection button would NOT push up into the high position! I was skeptical when I received it because it came in a plain white box and not the manufacturers packaging. I know because i ordered this before from amazon and also have purchased at Walmart. Why would Amazon send me an already returned defective product!!? I see in some other reviews customers reported the same issues. And then we the customer have to mess around and pack it up and get it to a return center, a big inconvenience! C’monAmazon, do better! Now I’ve had yo recorder and hoping I get the product without problems!!

I love these styling brushes and wanted one for travel. It switches from 120v power to 240v power so won’t blow up BUT the major issue with this one is it will NOT go onto high speed setting. I have taken it apart and everything and cannot get it to change from low speed. Unfortunately I did not realize this until I was in Europe and it was too late to return when I got back to US. Still effective at smoothing out nearly dry hair, but not powerful enough to dry my hair.

Great product!

The Conair 2-in-1 Hot Air Curling Combo is fantastic! The 1.5-inch curl brush and 1-inch aluminum bristle brush give me the versatility to create both soft waves and defined curls. It heats up quickly and styles my hair without causing damage. The hot air function adds volume and shine, making my hair look professionally styled. Lightweight and easy to use — highly recommend for quick, beautiful results!

I usually buy Revlon thought I'd try something different, that was a mistake. I have shoulder length hair, pretty thin. Tried both brushes, neither one of them really did anything ? Also the bristles are hard, kinda hurt my scalp, and my hair got tangled in them, am returning it.
