I have one, but felt it wasn't a good fit for my fine, somewhat dry hair. Way too hot for me. I have pretty much mastered the round brush, so I'll stick with that.😊
My husband purchased the Revlon for me, as a Christmas gift, he saw me watching your video, and I LOVE it. My hair looks so good, it makes me so happy! lol. I can’t do the round brush and dryer at the same time either. Thank you so much!
I’ve been using the Revlon One Step Plus for over two years, I have shoulder length gray hair that is very fine and frizzes when I use a regular blow dryer and round brush. I LOVE my Revlon. It takes me about 11 to 12 minutes from pretty wet to totally dry, no frizz, smooth bob style. I have never used the high setting, only low or medium if I’m in a hurry. I see no reason to spend up to three times as much for basically the same result. I would buy this same one again.
Do you guys also use it on unwashed hair? Like to re-style it? Or would that dry out your hair? I'm trying to see if I should buy it or just get a regular curling iron. I have very coarse, thick hair and am postpartum, so I'm trying to reduce time fixing my hair.
@@llopez7485 I am sorry, I can't help you with this as I have fine, thin hair. I only know my hair has lots of body and movement. It is also very shiny after each use. Just make sure you use a hair protectant made for the texture of your hair.
I just got the Revlon for Christmas, and I love it! It's got great heat and although it seemed large at first glance, I found it to be very managable in size and weight. Plus, it is also very quiet, imo. I highly recommend it!
Stylist here. I had the revlon, didnt like the heat. Just bought the new shark smooth styler for 199 at costco and really like the lightweight feel and felt good in hands.
I have been using the Revlon for 5 years now and love it. My hair is colored, shoulder length and I only use the warm setting and it works great! Thanks for the comparisons.
Great video! I have the Revlon one, and, yes, it does get hot, but I make sure to only use it only on the low setting. I’ve always had wavy, frizzy hair and I’m amazed how smooth and shiny it looks after using it!
I'm currently wearing my wavy hair in its _natural_ state, but when I was wearing my hair straight(ish), the Revlon was my go-to. Using a heat protectant, I would first rough dry my hair and then when my hair was about 30-40% dry, I would use the Revlon brush. It *does* get hot! 😅 Thanks for this very thorough comparison.
I have the Revlon brush and I love it! I even convinced my "no maintenance" bestie to try the smaller round one on her short hair and she loves it too! I always enjoy watching you and your wife 😊
I have the T3 and have used the Revlon as well. I am a licensed stylist but use them on myself when I am in a rush. The revlon gets very hot as it gets older. It’s burned me several times each time I used it until I finally just stopped and used my blow dryer and brush instead. I have a Dyson pro blow dryer so why not use it! The T3 I purchased on sale a few months ago and have found that I love the paddle brush attachment but not the round brush attachment as much. My daughter has finer hair and loves the round brush for the volume she is able to achieve. I on the other hand can get massive volume with the T3. Now we share the T3. You can change the heat settings on it separate from the blow speed and do a quick cool shot when you have finished a section. Yes I section. I also ordered and tried out the Shark and was sorely disappointed with it. Not only did it feel cheap it also didn’t smooth well or when using the curling option, with enough product to hold a style for days with a curling iron I might add, the curls lasted no more than 15 minutes in my hair or any of my daughter-in-laws or daughters. One of my daughter has naturally curly hair, ringlet in places. She held curls the longest which is to be expected, but the larger curls did fall quickly on her as well. I used a light leave in conditioner, Fat Boy fiber mouse or Aquage Root lifting foam, and even tried Kenra heat protectant for hold. Nothing helped. Long story short…… I love the T3!!!! I also love a curling iron for lasting curls! 1” long barrel is perfection! Oh and 4 times your wife changed her sweater :)
I have the Revlon blow brush. I've had it for about four years, and it does give me volume and shine. I like it very much. Thanks for the demos. Keep Smiling 😃
I’ve had the Revlon brush now for years and absolutely love it. I let my hair air dry mostly and then use it and it only takes me 3-5 minutes to dry and I have medium wavy textured hair past my shoulder. I recently tried out the Dyson air straight bc I loved the idea of wet to dry straight all in one and not as much high heat damage, but it took me 4 times as long and my hair ended up really staticky and it didn’t have as much volume so it got returned and I’m sticking with my $33 Revlon dryer ❤
That’s what I do too, when possible. I let hair air dry for a long time so heat styling is minimized. I also get a very fast overall shape and then low-heat individual pieces and roll in large and medium-large Velcro rollers and leave those in for as long as possible. Minimizing heat styling is my goal. The Revlon (even less $$ at Costco) has been great. Fun video!
I have had the first 3, returned the first 2, the Revlon is awful & fried my hair within weeks. I have had the T3 now for a year and love it, works beautifully & doesn’t damage my hair.
I have been using the CHI for about 2 years- I love that I can rough dry then style with the same tool. It also has a diffuser (too small), so it works (sort of) when I want to wave my hair. The airflow volume isn't that great, but I can't bring myself to spend $$$ on a Dyson or Shark just yet!
I have been using the L’Ange dryer brush on my light blonde 75 yr old hair and love it. My hair is naturally wavy and tends to frizz easily. I live in FL and along with deep conditioning, k18, Redken acid I only use heat on my hair with the dryer brush once a week. I rarely have to touch up my smoothing. I love it. Would you review the L’Ange please?!
Had the Revlon, worked pretty well. Did read/heard that they overheat and end up frying your hair, so. I got the Shark when Sephora had a percentage off sale. I like it better. I needed more tension that I wasn't getting from the Revlon blow dryer brush. It is a bit awkward to use at first. You get used to it. I like that it's one unit with different attachments
I have the Revlon brush for a year and I love it! I use a leave in conditioner first then a heat protector, this brush is the best. My brush is a EU version, there is only 3 modes of heat: cold brush, low heat, medium heat. The medium heat is NOT so hot, so you can touch the brush and not get burned.
Schitt’s Creek! I love that show. My daughter has the Revlon. I’ve used it. I like it, just tends to get hot even in the low setting. I came to TH-cam specifically to see what was the best. So glad I did. Great video. Merry Christmas from Oregon🎄
I’ve had my Revlon for several years and put it away for a while (for regular blow dryer and brush). I had long hair then and the low setting took way too long to dry, and the medium and high setting got too hot and blew hair around too much making it frizzy. I have resurrected the Revlon now that I have shorter hair and it works just fine on low heat. Good to know I have a decent one … but if I want to upgrade … I now know of other good options. Thanks!
i have the Revlon detachable version and love it (it does get hot so I keep it on low), spent 44 bucks on it. I recently purchased the Tymo brand, it has a bigger oval barrel , cool level and shorter handle (69 bucks on sale) and I've liked it so far as well. Both do the job, I do like that Revlon's has a detachable brush, makes it easier to clean.
Yes, we have the Tymo as well. My wife has been testing that one out. Not a bad price! And great point about the detachable brush being easier to clean.
I am surprised you didn’t compare to the TYMO as you have featured in the past. I bought it because of Gabi and love that I can control the heat and speed, is easy to use and reasonably priced.
I have the T3 Airebrush Duo and I LOVE it! I was hesitant to buy a blowdry brush, because I have a Dyson hairdryer and after spending all that money I didn’t want it to go to waste. But I got tired of trying to dry my hair with blow dryer and round brush. So I rough dry my hair with the Dyson and then finish with T3.
I hear you girl! I have the Dyson blowdryer also and love my T3 with the paddle brush attachment. I don’t need to rough dry but I will plop for awhile or just let me hair air dry while I do other things.
The Revlon brush is a the greatest thing since sliced bread. I actually get a hair salon quality style, something I was never able to do with a round brush. Life changing.
I have the Hot Tools dryer/air brushes. I've tried many brands over the years and they are the only ones that work the best on my naturally wavy, heavy hair.
I believe they bought the old company I used to use the brushes from and loved them. I'll have to look again. I was suprised they didn't come up on the search of most popular. They don't advertise them the way the others do though.
Justin, i think each of your videos doesn't suck!! LOL 😆 And i love your wife! Looks like the two of you have a great relationship. I pray y'all are blessed with many, many years of happiness!
I’d keep the Revlon brush! I have thin fine hair and and very small hands! I’ve never used one of these type drier/brushes but now plan on buying one. Thank so much! Your videos are great and very educational
Thank you so much! I truly appreciate that. With your hair, being thin and fine, make sure you use a heat protectant before applying any sort of heat tools to your hair. Also, I have a video coming out next week all about thin, fine hair! Can’t wait to hear what you think.
I have thin fine curly hair and have used the Revlon brush for a few years. It works great! I just have to be careful not to overdry, when my hair starts getting warm. I like to use the cool setting when my hair is mostly dry.
So glad I found your channel. Im currently transitioning to gray. Im a natural curly brunette, now blond, now toned, so Ashy blond. I diffuse most of my chin length bob and let it be curly, But my bangs, oh my they have to be tamed with a styling brush into a softer look. Think tight coils. Not good. So my question is, with my chin length fine thin curly hair, do you think the revlon would be too large of a brush for my length of hair? Thanks so much
Same here and it has been a blessing as I have rheumatoid arthritis in both wrists so using a blow dryer and round brush can be quite painful at times. I have thick curly hair so need to use the high heat setting to get my hair straight. I don’t straighten my hair all the time so I’m not constantly exposing my hair to that level of heat.
This was fun and informative! I have 2 that I use. Like your adorable wife, I don’t quite have the “hang” of the round brush / blow dryer technique, so I love my blow dry brushes! I have the Chi w/a round brush, and the Glam Girl Gabi Tymo oval. I’ve been growing my hair out from a pixie and it’s collarbone length at its longest … finally … yay!! My hair is super thick, coarse, tends to be frizzy, and naturally dry. Sometimes the Chi does not “feel” “strong” enough to pull thru. It “feels” like it’s going to come apart b/c my hair is so thick for it to pull thru. But so far, it’s stayed intact. It does get very hot and w/a short knob to grab, I burn my fingers nearly every time I use it. I’ve always thought the T3 and Shark seem way too big and bulky for me! I was never convinced the DryBar would grab my hair sufficiently. Great comparisons - thx!!
Donna, If you watch the site and even stores for promotions you can score the T3 for about $99 and I LOVE mine for Versatility (comes with Both a Paddle and a Round brush head) and that you have separate controls for heat and airflow.
I’ve had the Revlon for more than a year. It works well, but it is loud and does get really hot on the high setting. So much so that you can’t handle your section of hair right away after you’ve dried it. It has set the smoke detector off in the hall, outside the bathroom door. Use with some caution!
Great to know. Yeah, that hot setting is hot. But these days, all dryers are crazy hot. As long as you keep moving it and don't let it sit in the hair in one spot, it's better but I agree.
Justin, I’m curious about the noise level of these brushes? I’m currently using one, and my husband thinks that it sounds like an airplane engine and that I am going to permanently damage my hearing. I now use earplugs, but he wants to throw it away and buy me a entirely different product. Can you give some feedback as to the greater and lesser decibels? Thank you.
@@justinhickox thanks Justin, I like it because it has 2 heat settings plus cold air. Still need to get used to it because so far my Dyson Airwrap is by far my favourite of all hair devices. After watching your videos on the Corale some time ago I bought it and am happy I did. If you don't put out another video before Christmas, Merry Christmas to you both 🎉🎄🍾
I've had a WHITE Dry Bar blow dry brush for over a year and will never go back to the old two handed round brush blow dry. It's easy to manage and grips the hair well with well located COOL button. As a former designer, I am annoyingly visual and would not have purchased if YELLOW was the only color choice! - crazy I know, but white goes with everything. I also let my hair go gray during Covid and am lucky that I have a shiney combination of white/blackish brown; slightly longer than chin length bob.
I’ve used the revlon for several years! Tried other brands and go back to this one but would love to try the shark because of the settings. Thank you for this video. Very informative.
I've also been considering saving up for the shark flexstyler. I just can't bring myself to consider the dyson airstyler. But now, after they reviewed the flexstyler, I may just go ahead and go with the revlon.
Do you think they'll every make one with a smaller barrell? Anyway, I only use a blow dryer once a week, I can make do with the wonderful brush you recommended and the blow dryer I already have.
I love my Revlon! It gets the job done effectively and it's got an amazing price point! I also have the "Amazon brand" one that's black and gold. They both also work basically the same.
Schitt's Creek. Also I have been using a John Frieda blow dry brush for many years, I got it when I had carpal tunnel surgery and it was a game changer for me. This same device is still working well. PS My brush is round, not oval
literally a day after posting this, my blow dry brush died. Based on this video I got the Revlon. I was not sure I would like the oval shape but it turns out to give me a great hairstyle, takes much less time to dry and I love how my long bangs come out.
Ive had the Revlon for years. It’s the best hair tool I’ve ever owned. I like that it’s hot since I only need one to two passes on my hair and if the air is not hot my hair droops and has no volume in the end.
Hey guys, UK here I’m a little late to the show 🤦♀️. Just loving your vids and learning so much. I bought the Chi plus the Laifen Swift Special which I saw on another of your vids. Looking forward to using them rather than the heavy hairdryer and a brush. Thank you for the great informative videos, just wish you were my stylist. ❤️
I first got the Revlon one, and then I got the Sharkflex style. About the Revlon I like that is very lightweight and not so loud, and good ergonomic as well. But a few months ago I got the sharkflex style and I learned to like it more above being heavier and louder. I just feel like the flexshark grips better my hair and also, it doesnt get as hot like the revlon. With the revlon, I would burn my fingers just holding the pointy end, and would burn my face using it on the side/front hair. With the shark one my face or my hands doesn't get burn and I even can hold it by the brush.
I love your videos and have gone through most of them in the last few weeks! My apologies for asking a question on a 6 month old post. Are these larger oval barrels useful for shorter hair as well? My hair is about halfway between jaw line and shoulder and I have my doubts I can get benefit from this large of appliance. If you agree can you recommend an alternative? Any help is appreciated!!!
I tried the Revlon, but returned it because it was just too hot. I have wavy hair so using the lower heat settings allowed too much frizz. I then bought the Drybar and love it. I’ve been using it for over 2 years now. I recently tried the T3 but returned it because it was more clumsy to use and it didn’t give me the volume I wanted.
I am on my second Revlon. The first I had taken with me while traveling and my hairspray cap came off and sprayed all over the part that turns the Revlon on and I couldn’t turn it to the cold or the hot. It was stuck on warm. Which is what I use on my hair. I used it on my hair like that for 2 years. I had it over all for 5 years before my daughter got me a new Revlon. Now I have my old one in my travel bag and the newer one I use at home! I LOVE THEM!
I had the revlon one for a year or two. Just got the chi one with interchangeable brush heads. I LOVE it! Easier to use, smoother results, more volume. Glad I finally bit the bullet. 😄
I had the revlon, but stopped using it after a few months because of how hot it got, i new i would damage my really long hair. The low setting wasnt an option because it didn't dry my hair, would have been there so long. I bought the t3, and it doesnt get as hot, but i almost feel like it isnt powerful enough. I went back to using my t3 blow dryer and a round brush
Welcome! Thanks for the feedback! I have a few videos about BOB shapes and I'll be making more for sure. My video coming out next Tuesday is specifically about thin/fine hair and I intend to make a LOT more content around thin/fine hair this coming year. I'd love to know what you'd like to see videos about when it comes to thin or fine hair!
I would love a video that shows how to use a dyson airwrap to style thin, fine hair. I don't believe you've ever done a video using the airwrap (?), so perhaps you don't like this hair tool. I know it's an expensive tool but for those of us who have already purchased one it would be helpful to have a professional - ie, yourself (lol) - give tips on how to use the tool. For myself, I purchased the airwrap so I don't have to buy a number of other hair tools - ie, blowout brush, flat iron, blow dryer etc.
I used the revlon dor several years. Had two of them. They would get bery hot and i would have to stop and take breaks. Bought the drybar single shot six months and there was a huge difference in quality, in the look of my hair, the shine, the bends, everything.
I have the Dry Bar and love how it works on my hair but I have tried several and I don't like seeing all my hair in the brushes when done. Do you think they are overall harmful?? Not sure how to count top changes...started with black, then animal print, then pinky-taupe, then back to black...so 3 changes??? Fun video, thanks.
I have the Revlon, love it. I think Moira had the most volume cause she was dried last. Their clothes kept changing, so was there days in between using the products? Justin ended up choosing the one that felt plastic-y & cheap?
I have the T3 and have noticed that my hair is shinier than blow drying with other driers I've had. Due to the ceramic core I guess. Thanks for showing - good comparison.
3 shirt changes. I've often wondered about the difference in these and have considered purchasing one because now that my hair is natural and I am not coloring it, it's thicker and has a wave to it. Also gray hair has more frizz so I think it would help my hair alot to use one. Thanks for all you do throughout the year. Merry Christmas!
What heat-protective leave-in conditioner do you recommend for volume in fine hair? I just found out my favorite is no longer available. Could you review some? Or do you have your own product? I liked my foam mousse - easiest for me to spread well with a comb. I’ve tried creams and gels, but they were harder for me to distribute evenly without getting too much in one place. I want that Revlon dryer.
I have the Revlon one had for a couple of years I have long thick hair and it works great I do use the high setting but I only wash my hair once a week and use it once a week.
I also prefer the round Ceramic brush for blow drying. For daily brushing i prefer an Acca Kappa pneumatic oval brush with metal bristles. --> currently contemplating if i shouldn't switch for a similar one, but with boar bristles. Acca Kappa (Italian brand with long tradition, very very high quality) is my favorite brand. That combing brush i used for 10 years, and its successor (same model) for another 10. This is by regularly cleaning it with soap water.
Great video but surprised you didn't pick the new Shark Smooth instead of the multistyler. It is much more like a regular blow dry brush. I was looking at the Drybar but picked the Shark Smooth because I have thick hair. Works great. Keep making the fun videos and I love it when Kevin stops in to check things out.
I think you guys are awesome I love how you interact with each other I've always wanted one of those brush blow-dryers . You're wife changed twice started with the black sweater and ended with it I would try the CHI TFS 💕
I adore my Revlon - except when I was using it everyday and using it to dry style, I started drying out my hair. So now I use heat protection and only dry my hair until it begins to get warm (which means it is dry). I use hair oil to smooth as the final step instead of heating it over and over. Works much better. I always wondered if I should trade up, but you showed me that I am really fine with what I have. Buttttt………if I win a better one, i would love it. She wore three different shirts, so she changed twice!
I love this insight! Yes, definitely use a heat protectant as all of these get quite hot. Also, I find it works best to get your hair about 75% dry with a blow dryer first then use the round brush dryer to finish it off. That way you have more control over where the heat is being placed for most of the process and it ends up being much quicker as well.
I tried the Revlon last year. Burnt the top of my hair. Awful. Complained to head office in AZ. They gave my money back - thank you! Then bought the Drybar - love it. One I would try in the future is a self-revolving blower brush. I’d appreciate a review vid in the top picks . Thank you
I've had the revlon in my Amazon saved for later list for a while but wasn't ready to pull the trigger. Thank you for this video, definitely some others to consider.
I had a Revlon for a couple of years. It is hotter and I found I replaced it with a newer Revlon when I thought the bristles weren't holding the hair as well. My stylist claimed that using it all the time (about three times in two weeks) was damaging my hair. I tossed the traditional hair blower and brushes about 6 years ago when Chemo made them useless and I was concerned about the "new" hair. When it was grown in sufficiently, I started with the Revlon. I decided to "try" a multipurpose" dryer, so I purchased a Dyson & a Shark. The Dyson went back after two uses. The cord was HEAVY making it difficult to use in part. The attachments were okay, but not worth the difference and I needed to use both hands most of the time. The Shark is staying because it gives me the dryer-brush, air-wrap, and smoother tools. And I got it on a well timed Costco special. Glad I watched your video. Thank you!
I have been using the revlon one step for a year. The high heat is too hot. It has melted(burned) the short bristles. I would buy again, but keep it on low temperature.
I think if I were to purchase one, I'd choose the Chi. I had the Revlon, but returned it because it was just too hot, even on the lower temperature. I have fine, very wavy hair, maybe 2C and I have to be very careful with it.
I’ve had babyliss and revlon here in Uk and babyliss wins every time - is it called con air elsewhere? I’m hopeless at styling so need the brush to spin for me😂
@@lyndathorpe280 I'm not sure what it's called elsewhere. I also had an amazing Babyliss Waving Wand. Sold it when I moved abroad & now I'm back they don't make them any more. Just found a boxed one on eBay though. Their stuff is the shizz.
I'm a Revlon Titanium Max user. Because it dries hair from inside out, it's way better for my hair than a blower & brush - less frizz even on high which I use every other day. It straightens my hair & creates volumn so for more curl or waves, I also use a curling iron. My mid60s hair is the best it's ever been. Sweater changes? I don't need another appliance right now so...happy day whoever gets one. 😊
It would have been nice to see the Hot Shot in there because it’s the same product as the Revlon, but is a little nicer and has more temperature options; also has interchangeable brushes. I bought a smaller brush for mine. I’ve been using it for a few years and I really love it.

Who won?
I've had the Revlon for a year. It works great on my 71 year old hair. I only use the low heat setting.
Great to hear it lasted for a while! I was very impressed by it for the price!
I've got that one, too. I waited to buy it until they came out with the version that has 3 heat settings, and I only use medium and cool.
I’m a stylist and I have the Revlon one as well.. does a good smoothing .
I got a Revlon as well and I love it
I have one, but felt it wasn't a good fit for my fine, somewhat dry hair. Way too hot for me. I have pretty much mastered the round brush, so I'll stick with that.😊
My husband purchased the Revlon for me, as a Christmas gift, he saw me watching your video, and I LOVE it. My hair looks so good, it makes me so happy! lol. I can’t do the round brush and dryer at the same time either. Thank you so much!
I’ve been using the Revlon One Step Plus for over two years, I have shoulder length gray hair that is very fine and frizzes when I use a regular blow dryer and round brush. I LOVE my Revlon. It takes me about 11 to 12 minutes from pretty wet to totally dry, no frizz, smooth bob style. I have never used the high setting, only low or medium if I’m in a hurry. I see no reason to spend up to three times as much for basically the same result. I would buy this same one again.
The revlon ripped my hair out.
I purchased the Revlon just as it first came out. I am on my second one and probably won't use any other kind.
Do you guys also use it on unwashed hair? Like to re-style it? Or would that dry out your hair? I'm trying to see if I should buy it or just get a regular curling iron. I have very coarse, thick hair and am postpartum, so I'm trying to reduce time fixing my hair.
@@llopez7485 I am sorry, I can't help you with this as I have fine, thin hair. I only know my hair has lots of body and movement. It is also very shiny after each use. Just make sure you use a hair protectant made for the texture of your hair.
@@llopez7485 I use it on the low setting to refresh my day two hair after I've slept on it, and it gives me a great result.
All characters from schitts creek. Awesome series, love it!
I just got the Revlon for Christmas, and I love it! It's got great heat and although it seemed large at first glance, I found it to be very managable in size and weight. Plus, it is also very quiet, imo. I highly recommend it!
Stylist here. I had the revlon, didnt like the heat. Just bought the new shark smooth styler for 199 at costco and really like the lightweight feel and felt good in hands.
What do u think about the Hot Tools one? 🤔🤔
I have been using the Revlon for 5 years now and love it. My hair is colored, shoulder length and I only use the warm setting and it works great! Thanks for the comparisons.
Great video! I have the Revlon one, and, yes, it does get hot, but I make sure to only use it only on the low setting. I’ve always had wavy, frizzy hair and I’m amazed how smooth and shiny it looks after using it!

Using a heat protectant, I would first rough dry my hair and then when my hair was about 30-40% dry, I would use the Revlon brush. It *does* get hot! 😅 Thanks for this very thorough comparison.
Yes, a heat protectant is a must!
@@justinhickox'heat protectant (sp)", please. Thx
I have the Revlon brush and I love it! I even convinced my "no maintenance" bestie to try the smaller round one on her short hair and she loves it too! I always enjoy watching you and your wife 😊
I have the T3 and have used the Revlon as well. I am a licensed stylist but use them on myself when I am in a rush. The revlon gets very hot as it gets older. It’s burned me several times each time I used it until I finally just stopped and used my blow dryer and brush instead. I have a Dyson pro blow dryer so why not use it!

You can change the heat settings on it separate from the blow speed and do a quick cool shot when you have finished a section. Yes I section. I also ordered and tried out the Shark and was sorely disappointed with it. Not only did it feel cheap it also didn’t smooth well or when using the curling option, with enough product to hold a style for days with a curling iron I might add, the curls lasted no more than 15 minutes in my hair or any of my daughter-in-laws or daughters. One of my daughter has naturally curly hair, ringlet in places. She held curls the longest which is to be expected, but the larger curls did fall quickly on her as well. I used a light leave in conditioner, Fat Boy fiber mouse or Aquage Root lifting foam, and even tried Kenra heat protectant for hold. Nothing helped. Long story short…… I love the T3!!!! I also love a curling iron for lasting curls! 1” long barrel is perfection! Oh and 4 times your wife changed her sweater :)
I have the Revlon blow brush. I've had it for about four years, and it does give me volume and shine. I like it very much. Thanks for the demos. Keep Smiling 😃
That's awesome to hear it's been working so well for you for so long!
I’ve had the Revlon brush now for years and absolutely love it.

I also get a very fast overall shape and then low-heat individual pieces and roll in large and medium-large Velcro rollers and leave those in for as long as possible. Minimizing heat styling is my goal. The Revlon (even less $$ at Costco) has been great. Fun video!
I've used the revlon for 4 years due to shoulder surgery. I love it. Works great for my fine hair.
I have used the Revlon for a couple of years. I’m Not very “handy” with hair tools, but I am very pleased with the Revlon.
I have had the first 3, returned the first 2, the Revlon is awful & fried my hair within weeks. I have had the T3 now for a year and love it, works beautifully & doesn’t damage my hair.
Hello. What's the 'T3' again? Thanks
How about some suggestions for dryers for short style cuts. Not everyone has ultra long hair. Thanks.
I have been using the CHI for about 2 years- I love that I can rough dry then style with the same tool. It also has a diffuser (too small), so it works (sort of) when I want to wave my hair. The airflow volume isn't that great, but I can't bring myself to spend $$$ on a Dyson or Shark just yet!
I have been using the L’Ange dryer brush on my light blonde 75 yr old hair and love it. My hair is naturally wavy and tends to frizz easily. I live in FL and along with deep conditioning, k18, Redken acid I only use heat on my hair with the dryer brush once a week. I rarely have to touch up my smoothing. I love it.
Would you review the L’Ange please?!
Does the brush head come off to wash ? I have natural grey curly/wavy super fine hair . That oils easily
Loved the presentation!!! She wore 3 shirts! It’s great to see the difference of the dryer brushes, I love to learn with you! Thanks 🤗🎄💇🏼♀️
Had the Revlon, worked pretty well. Did read/heard that they overheat and end up frying your hair, so. I got the Shark when Sephora had a percentage off sale. I like it better. I needed more tension that I wasn't getting from the Revlon blow dryer brush. It is a bit awkward to use at first. You get used to it. I like that it's one unit with different attachments
I have the Revlon and I love it. It gets very hot, so low is best. It dries quickly and I get lots of volume.
That’s awesome to hear! I love that feedback. Thanks for sharing it!
I have the Revlon brush for a year and I love it!
I use a leave in conditioner first then a heat protector, this brush is the best.
My brush is a EU version, there is only 3 modes of heat: cold brush, low heat, medium heat.
The medium heat is NOT so hot, so you can touch the brush and not get burned.
Schitt’s Creek! I love that show. My daughter has the Revlon. I’ve used it. I like it, just tends to get hot even in the low setting. I came to TH-cam specifically to see what was the best. So glad I did. Great video. Merry Christmas from Oregon🎄
I’ve had my Revlon for several years and put it away for a while (for regular blow dryer and brush). I had long hair then and the low setting took way too long to dry, and the medium and high setting got too hot and blew hair around too much making it frizzy. I have resurrected the Revlon now that I have shorter
hair and it works just fine on low heat. Good to know I have a decent one … but if I want to upgrade … I now know of other good options. Thanks!
i have the Revlon detachable version and love it (it does get hot so I keep it on low), spent 44 bucks on it. I recently purchased the Tymo brand, it has a bigger oval barrel , cool level and shorter handle (69 bucks on sale) and I've liked it so far as well. Both do the job, I do like that Revlon's has a detachable brush, makes it easier to clean.
Yes, we have the Tymo as well. My wife has been testing that one out. Not a bad price! And great point about the detachable brush being easier to clean.
I am surprised you didn’t compare to the TYMO as you have featured in the past. I bought it because of Gabi and love that I can control the heat and speed, is easy to use and reasonably priced.
I have the T3 Airebrush Duo and I LOVE it! I was hesitant to buy a blowdry brush, because I have a Dyson hairdryer and after spending all that money I didn’t want it to go to waste. But I got tired of trying to dry my hair with blow dryer and round brush. So I rough dry my hair with the Dyson and then finish with T3.
I hear you girl! I have the Dyson blowdryer also and love my T3 with the paddle brush attachment. I don’t need to rough dry but I will plop for awhile or just let me hair air dry while I do other things.
The Revlon brush is a the greatest thing since sliced bread. I actually get a hair salon quality style, something I was never able to do with a round brush. Life changing.
I have the Revlon and love it. It styles my hair so much easier than a round brush and blow dryer. I always use Medium. Hot is way too hot.
Yes, we definitely found that hot IS in fact, way too hot! lol
I have the Hot Tools dryer/air brushes. I've tried many brands over the years and they are the only ones that work the best on my naturally wavy, heavy hair.
I believe they bought the old company I used to use the brushes from and loved them. I'll have to look again. I was suprised they didn't come up on the search of most popular. They don't advertise them the way the others do though.
I have been thinking about trying one for over a year now. Thank you for the comparison and your thoughts on each one.
Merry Christmas everyone!
I have had the Revlon for years and I love it. I do want to try just the round one instead of the oval on.
I got the Revlon one for my daughter last Christmas - I'm glad it compared well. Best wishes to the blow dryer winners!
This video could not have come at a better time!!!…I need a new one!!!…you know I totally trust my guy!!!!💜💜💜💜just started watching!!!!
Justin, i think each of your videos doesn't suck!! LOL 😆 And i love your wife! Looks like the two of you have a great relationship. I pray y'all are blessed with many, many years of happiness!
Thank you so much! We truly appreciate that. It’s always so great to hear positive feedback! Have a fantastic holiday season!
I’d keep the Revlon brush! I have thin fine hair and and very small hands! I’ve never used one of these type drier/brushes but now plan on buying one. Thank so much! Your videos are great and very educational
Thank you so much! I truly appreciate that. With your hair, being thin and fine, make sure you use a heat protectant before applying any sort of heat tools to your hair. Also, I have a video coming out next week all about thin, fine hair! Can’t wait to hear what you think.
I have thin fine curly hair and have used the Revlon brush for a few years. It works great! I just have to be careful not to overdry, when my hair starts getting warm. I like to use the cool setting when my hair is mostly dry.
So glad I found your channel. Im currently transitioning to gray. Im a natural curly brunette, now blond, now toned, so Ashy blond. I diffuse most of my chin length bob and let it be curly, But my bangs, oh my they have to be tamed with a styling brush into a softer look. Think tight coils. Not good. So my question is, with my chin length fine thin curly hair, do you think the revlon would be too large of a brush for my length of hair? Thanks so much
I've had the Revlon for years and love, love, love it! I had it so long, I need a new one😅
Same here and it has been a blessing as I have rheumatoid arthritis in both wrists so using a blow dryer and round brush can be quite painful at times. I have thick curly hair so need to use the high heat setting to get my hair straight. I don’t straighten my hair all the time so I’m not constantly exposing my hair to that level of heat.
I have an ANCIENT Revlon and it still works just fine!
This was fun and informative!
I have 2 that I use. Like your adorable wife, I don’t quite have the “hang” of the round brush / blow dryer technique, so I love my blow dry brushes!
I have the Chi w/a round brush, and the Glam Girl Gabi Tymo oval. I’ve been growing my hair out from a pixie and it’s collarbone length at its longest … finally … yay!!
My hair is super thick, coarse, tends to be frizzy, and naturally dry. Sometimes the Chi does not “feel” “strong” enough to pull thru. It “feels” like it’s going to come apart b/c my hair is so thick for it to pull thru. But so far, it’s stayed intact. It does get very hot and w/a short knob to grab, I burn my fingers nearly every time I use it.
I’ve always thought the T3 and Shark seem way too big and bulky for me! I was never convinced the DryBar would grab my hair sufficiently.
Great comparisons - thx!!
I tried the Revlon and the Tymo. Didn't like either one. Bought a Conair at CVS with detachable brush. Love it!
I have the same...Conair. But it's not fancy enough for this stylist. The T2 is interesting but $150?
Donna, If you watch the site and even stores for promotions you can score the T3 for about $99 and I LOVE mine for Versatility (comes with Both a Paddle and a Round brush head) and that you have separate controls for heat and airflow.
I’ve had the Revlon for more than a year. It works well, but it is loud and does get really hot on the high setting. So much so that you can’t handle your section of hair right away after you’ve dried it. It has set the smoke detector off in the hall, outside the bathroom door. Use with some caution!
Great to know. Yeah, that hot setting is hot. But these days, all dryers are crazy hot. As long as you keep moving it and don't let it sit in the hair in one spot, it's better but I agree.
Justin, I’m curious about the noise level of these brushes? I’m currently using one, and my husband thinks that it sounds like an airplane engine and that I am going to permanently damage my hearing. I now use earplugs, but he wants to throw it away and buy me a entirely different product. Can you give some feedback as to the greater and lesser decibels? Thank you.
Great to see a video from you. I've just bought the Revlon One Step so I'm interested to see how it fairs
Hey! Thank you! I think you'll really like it! Can't wait ti hear your thoughts after you try it!
@@justinhickox thanks Justin, I like it because it has 2 heat settings plus cold air. Still need to get used to it because so far my Dyson Airwrap is by far my favourite of all hair devices. After watching your videos on the Corale some time ago I bought it and am happy I did.
If you don't put out another video before Christmas, Merry Christmas to you both 🎉🎄🍾
I love my Lange dryer brush. Had the Revlon before and I felt it broke and fried my hair. Great video!
Great to know! It definitely gets hot. I was going to try the Lange, I should have.
The Revlon was just too hot and damaged my hair! I recently got the L’ange and it (IMO) is wonderful! I’d love to see Justin do a review!
I have the Lange, love it. However, it is way too hot! I watched this video looking to replace it because it’s too hot and the temp is not adjustable.
I use Dyson to do primary drying then Revlon to finish. Works well for me!
Love this. The two of you presenting in this format is awesome. I'd love to see the five models in future vids too.😊
I've had a WHITE Dry Bar blow dry brush for over a year and will never go back to the old two handed round brush blow dry. It's easy to manage and grips the hair well with well located COOL button. As a former designer, I am annoyingly visual and would not have purchased if YELLOW was the only color choice! - crazy I know, but white goes with everything. I also let my hair go gray during Covid and am lucky that I have a shiney combination of white/blackish brown; slightly longer than chin length bob.
I’ve used the revlon for several years! Tried other brands and go back to this one but would love to try the shark because of the settings. Thank you for this video. Very informative.
I've also been considering saving up for the shark flexstyler. I just can't bring myself to consider the dyson airstyler. But now, after they reviewed the flexstyler, I may just go ahead and go with the revlon.
Do you think they'll every make one with a smaller barrell? Anyway, I only use a blow dryer once a week, I can make do with the wonderful brush you recommended and the blow dryer I already have.
Katrina, Drybar has 2 other smaller brush size versions and so does Bondi Boost at a lower price point.
I love my Revlon! It gets the job done effectively and it's got an amazing price point! I also have the "Amazon brand" one that's black and gold. They both also work basically the same.
Schitt's Creek. Also I have been using a John Frieda blow dry brush for many years, I got it when I had carpal tunnel surgery and it was a game changer for me. This same device is still working well. PS My brush is round, not oval
literally a day after posting this, my blow dry brush died. Based on this video I got the Revlon. I was not sure I would like the oval shape but it turns out to give me a great hairstyle, takes much less time to dry and I love how my long bangs come out.
Ive had the Revlon for years. It’s the best hair tool I’ve ever owned. I like that it’s hot since I only need one to two passes on my hair and if the air is not hot my hair droops and has no volume in the end.
Hey guys, UK here I’m a little late to the show 🤦♀️. Just loving your vids and learning so much. I bought the Chi plus the Laifen Swift Special which I saw on another of your vids. Looking forward to using them rather than the heavy hairdryer and a brush. Thank you for the great informative videos, just wish you were my stylist. ❤️
I first got the Revlon one, and then I got the Sharkflex style. About the Revlon I like that is very lightweight and not so loud, and good ergonomic as well. But a few months ago I got the sharkflex style and I learned to like it more above being heavier and louder. I just feel like the flexshark grips better my hair and also, it doesnt get as hot like the revlon. With the revlon, I would burn my fingers just holding the pointy end, and would burn my face using it on the side/front hair. With the shark one my face or my hands doesn't get burn and I even can hold it by the brush.
Loved this!
Great information and great chemistry between hubby and wife 😊
Both of you are great and so are your videos! Thank you for your honesty.
I love your videos and have gone through most of them in the last few weeks!
My apologies for asking a question on a 6 month old post. Are these larger oval barrels useful for shorter hair as well? My hair is about halfway between jaw line and shoulder and I have my doubts I can get benefit from this large of appliance. If you agree can you recommend an alternative? Any help is appreciated!!!
I tried the Revlon, but returned it because it was just too hot. I have wavy hair so using the lower heat settings allowed too much frizz. I then bought the Drybar and love it. I’ve been using it for over 2 years now. I recently tried the T3 but returned it because it was more clumsy to use and it didn’t give me the volume I wanted.
I have tried revlon, dry bar, and t3. I love t3 as the temp controls much better and gentle on my grey hair
I love the Revlon one. I've been using it for years.
I am on my second Revlon. The first I had taken with me while traveling and my hairspray cap came off and sprayed all over the part that turns the Revlon on and I couldn’t turn it to the cold or the hot. It was stuck on warm. Which is what I use on my hair. I used it on my hair like that for 2 years. I had it over all for 5 years before my daughter got me a new Revlon. Now I have my old one in my travel bag and the newer one I use at home! I LOVE THEM!
I have the Revlon I don’t like that it gets super hot. And I need something light weight
So I’m still on the hunt
Shouldn’t your wife try them over time since the idea is how it feels for the person holding the brush does with it.
Great video. I use the Revlon but think I will upgrade to Chi. Revlon does get really hot. Saw 3 shirts.
I had the revlon one for a year or two. Just got the chi one with interchangeable brush heads. I LOVE it!
Easier to use, smoother results, more volume.
Glad I finally bit the bullet. 😄
I had the revlon, but stopped using it after a few months because of how hot it got, i new i would damage my really long hair. The low setting wasnt an option because it didn't dry my hair, would have been there so long. I bought the t3, and it doesnt get as hot, but i almost feel like it isnt powerful enough. I went back to using my t3 blow dryer and a round brush
This is the first time I've seen your videos and have found it helpful. Perhaps you have a video for bobs that work with thinner, fine hair?
Welcome! Thanks for the feedback! I have a few videos about BOB shapes and I'll be making more for sure. My video coming out next Tuesday is specifically about thin/fine hair and I intend to make a LOT more content around thin/fine hair this coming year. I'd love to know what you'd like to see videos about when it comes to thin or fine hair!
I would love a video that shows how to use a dyson airwrap to style thin, fine hair. I don't believe you've ever done a video using the airwrap (?), so perhaps you don't like this hair tool. I know it's an expensive tool but for those of us who have already purchased one it would be helpful to have a professional - ie, yourself (lol) - give tips on how to use the tool. For myself, I purchased the airwrap so I don't have to buy a number of other hair tools - ie, blowout brush, flat iron, blow dryer etc.
I used the revlon dor several years. Had two of them. They would get bery hot and i would have to stop and take breaks. Bought the drybar single shot six months and there was a huge difference in quality, in the look of my hair, the shine, the bends, everything.
I am still watching and loving this video with you and Dionna!!!!🤣🤣
I’ve had the Revlon for a couple years and really like it (better than my Dyson). I only use the low setting.
I have the Revlon and like it for my very thick shoulder length hair. I use the lowest setting.
Thats great! It worked well...other than it getting too hot. Low setting is fantastic!
I have the Dry Bar and love how it works on my hair but I have tried several and I don't like seeing all my hair in the brushes when done. Do you think they are overall harmful?? Not sure how to count top changes...started with black, then animal print, then pinky-taupe, then back to black...so 3 changes??? Fun video, thanks.
I have the Revlon, love it. I think Moira had the most volume cause she was dried last. Their clothes kept changing, so was there days in between using the products? Justin ended up choosing the one that felt plastic-y & cheap?
I have the T3 and have noticed that my hair is shinier than blow drying with other driers I've had. Due to the ceramic core I guess. Thanks for showing - good comparison.
Thats great! Do you burn yourself as much as I did with it? My wife LOVES their curling iron.
Which blowdry brush do you think will be less damaging long term?
3 shirt changes. I've often wondered about the difference in these and have considered purchasing one because now that my hair is natural and I am not coloring it, it's thicker and has a wave to it. Also gray hair has more frizz so I think it would help my hair alot to use one. Thanks for all you do throughout the year. Merry Christmas!
What heat-protective leave-in conditioner do you recommend for volume in fine hair? I just found out my favorite is no longer available. Could you review some? Or do you have your own product? I liked my foam mousse - easiest for me to spread well with a comb. I’ve tried creams and gels, but they were harder for me to distribute evenly without getting too much in one place.
I want that Revlon dryer.
I have the Revlon one had for a couple of years I have long thick hair and it works great I do use the high setting but I only wash my hair once a week and use it once a week.
Love the video, she had 3 different tops and started and ended with the same top. I have been wanting a round blow dryer brush
I also prefer the round Ceramic brush for blow drying.
For daily brushing i prefer an Acca Kappa pneumatic oval brush with metal bristles. --> currently contemplating if i shouldn't switch for a similar one, but with boar bristles.
Acca Kappa (Italian brand with long tradition, very very high quality) is my favorite brand. That combing brush i used for 10 years, and its successor (same model) for another 10. This is by regularly cleaning it with soap water.
Great video but surprised you didn't pick the new Shark Smooth instead of the multistyler. It is much more like a regular blow dry brush. I was looking at the Drybar but picked the Shark Smooth because I have thick hair. Works great. Keep making the fun videos and I love it when Kevin stops in to check things out.
I think you guys are awesome I love how you interact with each other I've always wanted one of those brush blow-dryers . You're wife changed twice started with the black sweater and ended with it I would try the CHI TFS 💕
I adore my Revlon - except when I was using it everyday and using it to dry style, I started drying out my hair. So now I use heat protection and only dry my hair until it begins to get warm (which means it is dry). I use hair oil to smooth as the final step instead of heating it over and over. Works much better. I always wondered if I should trade up, but you showed me that I am really fine with what I have. Buttttt………if I win a better one, i would love it. She wore three different shirts, so she changed twice!
I love this insight! Yes, definitely use a heat protectant as all of these get quite hot. Also, I find it works best to get your hair about 75% dry with a blow dryer first then use the round brush dryer to finish it off. That way you have more control over where the heat is being placed for most of the process and it ends up being much quicker as well.
I like if it has a cold shot! Great video! Thank you! Merry Christmas!
I tried the Revlon last year. Burnt the top of my hair. Awful. Complained to head office in AZ. They gave my money back - thank you! Then bought the Drybar - love it. One I would try in the future is a self-revolving blower brush. I’d appreciate a review vid in the top picks . Thank you
I've had the revlon in my Amazon saved for later list for a while but wasn't ready to pull the trigger. Thank you for this video, definitely some others to consider.
I counted 3 changes. I have the Revlon and have always liked it. ❤ You guys are awesome 👌
I had a Revlon for a couple of years. It is hotter and I found I replaced it with a newer Revlon when I thought the bristles weren't holding the hair as well. My stylist claimed that using it all the time (about three times in two weeks) was damaging my hair. I tossed the traditional hair blower and brushes about 6 years ago when Chemo made them useless and I was concerned about the "new" hair. When it was grown in sufficiently, I started with the Revlon. I decided to "try" a multipurpose" dryer, so I purchased a Dyson & a Shark. The Dyson went back after two uses. The cord was HEAVY making it difficult to use in part. The attachments were okay, but not worth the difference and I needed to use both hands most of the time. The Shark is staying because it gives me the dryer-brush, air-wrap, and smoother tools. And I got it on a well timed Costco special. Glad I watched your video. Thank you!
Thanks so much for this video! Now I know why I need one of these!
I have been using the revlon one step for a year. The high heat is too hot. It has melted(burned) the short bristles. I would buy again, but keep it on low temperature.
I think if I were to purchase one, I'd choose the Chi. I had the Revlon, but returned it because it was just too hot, even on the lower temperature. I have fine, very wavy hair, maybe 2C and I have to be very careful with it.
I use a Babyliss Big Hair and it is freakin' amazing. It's a 50mm round brush. It gives you a fabulous bouncy finish and only costs £40. ($50)
Me too. Its fabulous for volume and not very dexterous hands
I will look into this one. Thank you!
I’ve had babyliss and revlon here in Uk and babyliss wins every time - is it called con air elsewhere? I’m hopeless at styling so need the brush to spin for me😂
@@lyndathorpe280 I'm not sure what it's called elsewhere. I also had an amazing Babyliss Waving Wand. Sold it when I moved abroad & now I'm back they don't make them any more. Just found a boxed one on eBay though. Their stuff is the shizz.
I finally bought the Revlon... game changer! I absolutely love it ❤
I'm a Revlon Titanium Max user. Because it dries hair from inside out, it's way better for my hair than a blower & brush - less frizz even on high which I use every other day. It straightens my hair & creates volumn so for more curl or waves, I also use a curling iron. My mid60s hair is the best it's ever been.
Sweater changes? I don't need another appliance right now so...happy day whoever gets one. 😊
Love your vids. Just got me dream cut after taking your recommendations to my stylist. Love from Vegas. ❤
I just bought a chi on sale but I have shorter hair and needed a smaller brush I do like it it doesn’t take much time
I was a big fan of the Chi!
I’m since 2 years very happy with my Revlon. Actually, I decided to let my hair grow because I love how it looks now
Are blow dry brushes okay for fine thin hair? I've heard they cause a lot of breakage.
bought the yellow one. Piggin hell it is massive but works!
well done guys
It would have been nice to see the Hot Shot in there because it’s the same product as the Revlon, but is a little nicer and has more temperature options; also has interchangeable brushes. I bought a smaller brush for mine. I’ve been using it for a few years and I really love it.
