Conair Instant Heat Styling Brush, 0.75 Inch

This curling-iron brush is great. I have had the 1-1/4" model for about one week. I use it to create curls, but I also sloooooowly brush some sections with it. It is awesome for that! I have shoulder-length, fine, wavy hair that is a bit frizzy. Slowly brushing with this iron removes the frizz and makes my hair look smooth, like I did something with it. And the process is so easy and fast. Today I curled about three sections and iron-brushed the rest. That took three minutes, if that.I also love that the heatsource is guarded by the bristles. I'm much less nervous about burning myself than when I used a regular iron.And I love how soft and blended and bouncy my hair looks.OK. There are a few downsides ... The first time I used it, I set the heat to the midpoint. That didn't seem to be hot enough, so I tried the turbo boost. Yikes! That burned my hair. Luckily, as soon as I smelled the burn, I was able to remove the iron quickly. There is no visible damage to my hair.So I plan to never use turbo boost again. And anyway, I don't need it, because I have found that 21, which is near the highest setting, works well enough on its own. I hold each curl for about 10-20 seconds, depending on how thick the section is.When creating curls, the brush can cause tangles, but I avoid most of them by brushing all my hair with my fingers before any styling begins. I also use the iron to brush through any section I am about to curl.Another thing that happens when creating curls is that my hair tends to slip through the brush. If I can catch a wider, but thinner section, it works well. I believe I will get better at that with practice. If not, I will buy a thermal glove and hold the end of the section to the iron as I start to roll the curl.These drawbacks are minor, though. I am so so so happy with my soft, smooth locks.

This is my 3rd ConAir Instant Heat curling brush. I’ve got stick-straight short hair and **love** this tool!1- It heats up fast2- It has heat levels so I can choose exactly how warm or hot it is3- It has auto shutoff in case I forget to unplug it4- It lasts forever! Really reliable.5- It doesn’t cost a fortune—great value for my $The only reason I replaced my most recent one was because a small part came off and I couldn’t tell how hot the brush was getting. (My mom took my 1st one. She loves it, too.)ConAir, please keep making these!Love,Your short+straight-haired fan

it works well. lots of different heat settings. heats up quickly. pretty small size.

I’ve been wanting to use a curling iron for so many years, but I was afraid I’m burning my hair my hand whatever. This curling iron that I purchased is perfect for a person who has never used a curling iron before it’s a step in the right direction and perhaps when I get used to this one, I might be able to try something different But it’s a good first curling iron!

This thing works wonders on my very fine, thinning hair. It heats up in seconds, literally. I'm a happy camper.

Either Conair’s quality control has gone down or this is a cheap knock off to the original.Pros:1. It heats up quickly, within 3 minutes using the power boost feature, and makes no noise at all.2. It works well on fine straight hair, better than any other curling brush/iron I’ve ever used.3. It does not create excess static.4. There’s a decent temperature range (1-25) that you can adjust.Cons:1. The metal bands that run in between the combs on the barrel are more flimsy than the original, which makes me wonder how long it will last.2. The unit I got was clearly used. The packaging was a mess and there was hair in the barrel. Ew! I had to clean and sterilize it prior to use.Overall, this curling brush works really well on fine straight hair. The hair in the barrel was avoidable and simply a lack of care (-2 stars), but operationally it works great. I may return it if I can find a different seller at the same price.

Perfect to use on my short bob! I find myself getting ready much quicker with this tool than with a regular curling wand and prefer the more voluminous results!

I was so disappointed that this was not like my old Conair. But I tried it anyway. I LOVE IT. It is very easy to use and makes my hair so smooth. It is my favorite hair tool.
