Most Helpful Positive Review Best hair dryer I've ever used I've had this product for less than a week, but I fell in love the first time I used it. I did a ton of research before purchasing, but was still nervous because there are so many similar products available, all different price points. I have fine, thin hair that holds water, so before using the hot tools styler I combed out my hair with a leave in conditioner and let it air dry partially. Then I added a thermal protectant and started styling. I haven't used the high setting because I haven't needed it. The low setting works just fine and leaves my hair smooth and shiny with fewer flyaways than a regular hair dryer. I have not noticed more volume, probably because my hair hangs to mid-back. And I noticed the "cool" setting doesn't feel cool at all. The barrel gets too hot for the air to cool, even on the cool setting, but I typically don't use that feature. I'm hoping the detachable brush is useful if I have to replace it due to wear. Overall, I'm extremely happy with my Hot Tools styler.
Most Helpful Critical Review Not worth it I was so excited to try this out. I did my research and still was left burned. Literally..
Don't get me wrong. The tool worked great, when it was working. Out of the blue just a few months of use (not even consecutive use) it started to get burning hot from the handle. I noticed the fan got louder and then burn odor shortly after. I looked inside and I could see the coils were red hot! I turned it off immediately and checked to make sure nothing was caught in it (I clean after every use) but nope, nada. Not sure if it was just a faulty brush but I wasn't taking chances. I chucked the thing and am going back to a good ol' fashioned blow dryer.

This is the best thing ive ever bought for my hair.

Best purchase I ever made!!!!! Best thing ever
I do Love It 5
Laura A from Conroe, TX
I had purchased another product but it did not work after I used it once or twice. I had to replace it with this product. I was very hesitant to purchase it because I could only see my hair getting all tangled in the bristles, etc. I was very pleasantly surprised! It gives my hair a smooth result but still with the volume I have been trying to achieve for years. The brush easily glides through my hair without any tangling at all. Using the curling iron from before seemed to leave my hair dry and unhealthy looking. This product leaves my hair smooth and healthy-looking. I am very pleased with this product and I would strongly recommend it.
Love love love 5

It's never been easier to dry my hair! My hair comes out so shiny and healthy looking! The whole dry time is cut down almost in half.

I was really impressed at first BUT 2
Amanda M from Dallas Fort Worth area
When I first purchased this I thought it was amazing and it blew out my hair in 20 min when it takes usually takes 45 min to and hour. But I have only had this for 4 months and the bristles on the brush have all crumbled with the heat. The side bristles have not lasted enough for the price and quality of the product. It's really sad because it's such a good product but to have to look for a replacement attachment so quickly after purchase isn't worth it.
Best and fastest blow dryer I've ever used 5
Nat from Minneapolis
This is the best blowdyer I've ever used. I love that the air gets sucked in instead of blown out. It helps tame my frizz in a way I never thought possible. Also very fast drying time and easy to style your hair with this tool. I'm never going back to a regular blow dryer!

Still deciding about this... 4
BlondeMommee from Minneapolis, MN
I used to use a round brush and my hair dryer, but since I had points that were expiring, I thought I'd try this. I'm still on the fence about it. The brush made my hair fuller, but this dries my hair ALOT faster than my hair dryer and brush.
Excellent blow dryer 5
Divakm from MD
This blow dryer is so easy to use. The brush attachment is great. I let my hair air dry for about an hour then used this dryer. It took about 10 minutes to dry my hair. The brush was easy to use and didn't get snagged in my hair. I was so happy with the results.

Mazoo from Kalamazoo, MI
My beautician did not like the balls on the ends of some of the brush ends- said they cause damage to the hair.
I would buy this product again 5
A from Los Angeles , Ca
I love how easy it was to use. It left my hair soo soft after using it.
Amazing tool! 5
Cher from Seattle
I have curly type 3b hair. It's halfway down my back. Never have been able to master a regular blow out as I've always needed a straightener for the sleek look I like... but let me tell you this is amazing! I no longer need a straightener! This dryers and straightens my hair, leaves volume and it quick! I add a little miracle 10 and coconut oil and voila! If you've been thinking about it, try it! I use it everyday, for touch ups and after my weekly wash day.
I've been using this everyday for about a month now and so far it's holding up. I feel like if I keep using it the same I may need to replace it within a year or so. But not a big deal... worth it for how smooth, silky and Voluminous it leaves my hair!
LOVE LOVE LOVE 5
Lori S. from St Charles IL
Dries my hair fast and leaves it smooth and silky. I only wash my hair about every 5 days and on days I don't wash it, I just spritz it with a water bottle and use this dryer and my hair looks great in about 2 minutes time.
Easy + quick smooth style (for me) 5
Nattiejoanna from Denton, TX
So far I've only used this on completely dry hair. This product works well at taming my bed head + frizz, and obtaining the smooth, sleek style that I go for without all the heat of a flat iron.
SO much easier than trying to hold a hair dryer and a round brush, which I was never coordinated enough to master.
yes 5
Cat from Buford GA
This is just what i wanted to help save a step or two when doing my hair. It glides easily through my extra long hair.
Love it 5
J from K
I have shoulder length hair and love how quickly I am able to dry and style my hair at the same time with one tool. I do not have issues with it getting tangled in my hair. My hair looks great when I am done. Highly recommend!
Reconsider 2

I expected more from this
Would not recommend for fine hair 3
SeaBee from Washington
This tool did dry my hair fast but it left my hair super limp and flat to my head. Also, it's basically like a flat iron and blow dryer together, which put so much heat on my hair. I could see it causing a lot of heat damage quickly.
Best Hair Tool I've Ever Bought 5
Darcie from Northern NY
Okay, so listen. This thing is a holy grail for me, and I don't toss these terms around lightly. I just don't have the coordination to dry my hair with a round brush correctly - I always end up with weird bends in my hair. Top this off with the fact that I have very fine hair cut into a shaggy bob. It really benefits from a great blowout. Enter this thing. I chose the smaller brush style because my hair is long but fine and I thought, because I'm clumsy, I could actually use this. It's true! My hair feels so much softer, has volume, less frizz, and the style persists now for multiple days. This is the answer to all of my problems. I followed the instructions and separated my hair into sections to dry this with. I am so very happy with this product - thank you for helping this super uncoordinated gal have a blowout that's approaching professional!
How did I go this long without one?!?! 5
Candace from Sebring, Fl
I have very wavy hair and my hair looks so much better styled after it's blow dried with a round brush. I guess I'm uncoordinated and gave up on blow drying with a round brush. This is a GAME CHANGER!!! I wait until my hair has air dried for about 30 minutes. Then it only takes me maybe 10 minutes. I do have hair to my shoulders so it isn't that long but it gives me so much volume and makes my hair so soft. I wish I had it many many years ago lol. Thank you to the ultra employee that introduced me to my fav hair tool. If you are debating and have wavy crazy hair BUY IT!!
Love that it comes apart 4
McM from Edgewater NJ
Dried my long wavy hair in under 20 mins
Must have tool! 5
Andi from Florida
So happy I decided to purchase this product. I've been looking at different brands and styles for a while and when they had the Black Friday deal I took the plunge. I have natural curly hair and blow drying is a nightmare, letting it air dry left me with a frizzy mess, and I'm not coordinated enough to use a round brush and dryer at the same time! This one tool does it all and leaves me with soft, silky, voluminous hair!
I like it ! 4
Teresa from Florida
I was a little skeptical because this seems like a very large brush. But I was pleasantly surprised it does a nice job. It dries my hair quickly leaving it nice and smooth. I do wish the brush and handle on it was just a little smaller it does get a bit hard to use especially on the back of your hair with such a large handle.
