Customer review: "My hair looks super shiny after drying with no frizz (which was always my biggest issue with other hairdryers). This hair dryer has a cool shot that stays on and it's not true cold but is excellent for curls. There is also a small diffuser style attachment that I use to dry my roots off before drying my curls wit the big diffuser. I have not found a single fault with the dryer and is my new favourite."

Our review: "So believe us when we say we were VERY INTRIGUED to see a hair tool going viral on the ol' TikTok for giving a salon-worthy blow dry. What's more, it doesn't include trying to master the awkward hairdryer and round brush action which we could never quite get the hang of. You simply wrap sections of damp hair around the brush and within minutes, your hair is looking hella bouncy."

Customer review: "After reading many reviews on many different types of hairdryers I finally choose this one. What an absolutely brilliant hairdryer. I have very thick long frizzy hair which I have only ever been able to get straight by using straighteners. Until now, my drying time has reduced and I haven’t even opened my straighteners even 5 days after drying. My hair is completely flat and remains flat with no frizz for days. This is a first for my hair."
