- Revlon vs Knock Off One Step Styler.
Where do I begin? Every single day so many of you (thank you for looking out for your girl) let me know that another knock off brand has stolen my content to sell their fake/cheap product... So I decided to try it out against the original, Revlon One-Step Volumizer hair dryer. After trying out this knock-off one-step styler I don't recommend it and please be a smart consumer. If you see my face or my content on an Ad on social media, I'm not promoting anything besides the Revlon one-step volumizer and dryer I don't allow anyone to use my content. Unless you see it personally from me, you can trust my opinion. But otherwise, I can't recommend or stand behind brands that think it's okay to steal content and lie to their consumers that the product they are selling is the product I am talking and raving about. IT'S NOT! Rant over :)

XO,

It really LOOKED like she was trying to make the knockoff side seem difficult lol. I also have seen several vids with ladies who weren't getting paid by either company and they consistently said the knockoff brand was just as good and in some cases BETTER
Yes i saw how she was using the revlon more especially in the ends but in the left side she didn't work more on her ends with the knock off
10000% thought the same thing everyone else says it's pretty much the same thing without the branded name 🤷♀️ still getting it 💁🏻♀️
right?
@@natashaannedavies4863 exactly. everyone is else said the knock off is better. the sound is lower and it works just as good as the revlon one.
Right! lolllll Her hair looked the same on both sides. Even if it was "frizzier," it's nothing a little hair oil can't fix!
I use the knock off because the real one isn't available in my country and, honestly, its still great!
Alison Turner Me too.
Me too, and i think it is great. I bought it as a Revlon product and got a fake one - at the same price!!!😡😡🤬 Nevertheless i kept it because it is so good.
I got the revlon but it’s not dual voltage 🙁 so i am thinking to buy the knock off version due to 220V. But still thinking if i should get it or not? Please help Guys ☺️
harpreet Humpal - I want to take it on my trip to Turkey. Will this work with an adapter? I wonder?
Lorna Garcia i tried using with a transformer.. it works but u wont be able to get the same power using a adapter. It will work but not as good without adapter.. i think turkey also use 220v plugs.
That's so crazy my knock off doesnt make my hair frizzy or anything.
She just said she does mot endorse the knock off... implying she endorses the revlon product
shes trying so hard to make the knock off one look like its rlly bad😭🤚🏻
I have that same knock off and also the Revlon. I like the knock off so much more. The Revolon I HAVE to use it on wet hair or it fizzes SO MUCH. I find overall I get way less frizz with the knock off.
I have love (down to my lower back) think wavy hair.
If I were getting paid by the company that made the product I'm reviewing I'd of course say its the best one. Both sides look the same, you spent more time on the Revlon side.
tamara dehne she also did different techniques with the revlon side. She consistently curled the hair under and with the other side she was going at it from a different direction
@@aloevera2051 i have hair at least 3 times longer than hers and a hell of a lot thicker and the cheaper one works fantastic. Telling people they should buy the more expensive one, to me is wrong. They both do the same thing. They even look pretty much the same. She is just in it for the money
I have the knock off and i love it...
Thank you for using subtitles for your hard of hearing audience!
You essentially can't (safely) use the Revlon tool outside of the Americas (or countries with 110V) without risking significant electrical issues. You also cannot use the Revlon tool with a voltage converter (as stated on the box). If Revlon could redesign this tool to suit between 220-240V (the mains supply of the majority of countries), there would not be such a desire for fakes.
I’ve seen the Revlon sold on Amazon UK with 220v - 240v!
@@lanaitgirl Link? (I've trawled Amazon, so I'd love to find it)
lanaitgirl if u have seen the 220v revlon please send me the link.
Can you also compare the revlon to the "higher end" versions, I saw bed head did one and there is a gold with charcoal version as well $79 or so. I saw them on ulta and was interested. It seemed like Revlon came out with theirs first, so it is interesting to see these other versions.
I find it amusing that this knock off brand has been using you in their commercials, but if you look closely it's you actually using the real Revlon one. I wish there was more legal action that you guys could take against them. Great video as always Milana!
I see that ad on Facebook all the time. I know they’re showing her using the revlon. Dishonest knock off company.
I commented on the Facebook add multiple times about this and I’m pretty sure they just deleted my comments
Kaitlin Ekberg same
I came here right after I saw an ad on FB using your image to let you know. It's just not right. I have the link in chrome if you want it, I don't want to post it here unless you want me to. Let me know. I love you and your channel 👍
I saw the same add on Pinterest. It was from some company called GenieMania or something like that.
I’ve literally seen tons of videos online comparing the 2 and they ALL said the fake revlon was just as good and if not BETTER! I personally own the knock off version and it DOES NOT Feel cheap at all! It actually feels quite well made and definitely does the magic on my hair.
So I will make it clear that this lady is literally over exaggerating so please do not listen to her 😁
i got a knock off version for free from amazon and its amazing, i dont have any issues that you have in your video so i think it may be your hair, as we all have diff types of hair. Mine is very thick compare to yours so maybe thats the reason? Also, I was wondering, the way you speak about REvlon product in all your videos - I feel like they pay you for ad. Is that true?
other than that- great video as always. :)
Julia JJ she is paid by revlon :) hence
🙄ugh how can I trust her if I want to save a few $$
I bought the revlon one when you reviewed it last year and it's changed my life - I have medium length curly hair and this works great and takes me only 10 mins to do in the morning when I'm rushing out the door. Thanks once again for your great videos and thanks for shaving time off my morning routine!!
What is the best way to clean the Revlon. I'll stick with my Revlon..... until I can afford the Dyson😉😉.... but what's the best way to clean the bristles of hair and product??
Being a cosmetologist, your best way to clean heat tools is with alcohol or alcohol wipes if available, I personally but I would wait until it's cooled so you don't burn yourself 😁 hope this helps.
Please do a video on how to make a mask for hair for silkiness
Also, revlon one step is on sale at bed bath and beyond right now and only $43.19 with the sale + 20% off coupon!
I bought the knock off because we can't get the Revlon one in Australia... I think that's why the dupes exist, because the Revlon product is only available in the USA. It absolutely sucks that they used your videos to promote it without asking but incidentally their videos are how I found you and your channel (so yay) ;-)
For now, the fake works great on my hair but I do have to use the lowest setting to get that nice smooth frizz free look. I would absolutely buy the Revlon one if we could get it here =/
Emma Lou is there anyone who bought this and see a little sparkle or orange shiny thing from inside the tool? I just got mine, I turned it on, and I saw this orange light from inside the tool. Is it normal?
I bought the generic brand since revlon isn’t available in Australia. It did a really good job smoothing my long hair. After a month of use all the bristles melted and leaned to the side. The top (hat looking) part came of, the plastic around the screws melted and hence no more support. I did glue it back on but kept on falling of. Since the top is not there the hot air is not as strong anymore since it’s not contained.
My Revlon One Step's plastic bristles are a bit bent out of shape bc I can't be bothered to section my hair properly but it still works and I love it. 😄 I can dry and style my hair in about 10 mins including going over with a cool shot! I've never had my hair look presentable by just blow drying it. Life changer!
From what i saw you did more hair with the Revlon and i still see frizz .
I got one of the knock offs paid $30 from Amazon and I am in love with it my hair gets smoothed out, grips my hair so so much and there's a little frizz but not crazy though it looks sleek and sexy like I had just gone to a hair salon. So maybe you are using a different knock off but mine is incredible! Can't go without it!
is the knock off still working?or does it did damage your hair compare to a normal hair dryer?
I bought the knock off after watching some youtube videos but it won't work after 2 weeks:(
I'm so glad you proved their commercial wrong! That will show them by putting you in the commercial without asking you !!!
You need to do a video on how to clean the revlon so you can have it for longer
Omg, I'm so glad you posted this. When I first saw your Revlon reviews being used in their knock off promos on instagram I tried calling them out but got subsequently blocked and I couldn't link you to them. It's such BS that knock off brands do that. I bought the Revlon One Step because of your original review and I absolutely love it.
There is definitely some sorcery going on with the Revlon dryer. They way it holds my hair in the barrel is amazing, usually my hair slips through everything making it so I can't get a good style, even with a regular round brush! The Revlon changed that for me, I love it!
It's really great! So happy it's working out for you
Bought the Revlon after your review & LOVE it! As with any, use a heat-styling product (I use Revlon spray-in).
Same with me! It is my new favorite hair tool.
I have had the Karmin Salon Series dryer for 2 years now, best dryer i have ever owned. ❤❤
Love the Revlon and use it all the time. Thanks for getting me to buy one. My frizzy hair is gone and I get compliments on my hair all the time.
I bought the Revlon because I saw your review on it and I absolutely love it! My hair has never looked this good!
I do love my Revlon One-Step Volumizer. Really helps get my curly hair straight. Only problem is, the little boar bristles have become all warped and bent due to heat, which I need because my hair is so curly.
Hi guys. I have a knock off bcs I couldnt buy revlon in my country or order one with EU plug in. Now, I have to say I am amazed with this product even though its not authentic. I have no freezines, my hair is sleek, shiny and super smooth. I just wanted to point out that i use a few products before i start blowdrying my hair. Like leave in treatments or dry oils or liquid crystals. Did this milabu person used some of those products on the revlon side, and used nothing on the knock off side of hair? Because it looks like it... Just say'n...
is the knock off still working?or does it did damage your hair compare to a normal hair dryer?
I’m SO happy you did this video! I just bought my Revlon Original through Amazon and I had a $50 gift card and used it for my purchase. I only paid $7.77 for S&H! I can’t wait until it gets delivered to me!
I’m so glad you addressed the stolen content!! I was hoping to see that in the beginning of the video, but I always watch til the end so I still saw it. I was one of those subscribers who let you know, and I was so mad at that stupid company for stealing your content!! 😠 As soon as my old Conair styling brush dies (which will be any day now....), I’m getting this baby! 🙂
I am so glad to watch this first! Because I was going to buy the cheap product cuz you were in the ad. I am sooooo glad that I decided to find your true review before making stupid move! Thank you!!🙏🙏
I think you are not seeing clearly... your Revlon ends are slight more frizzier and puffy. Both of your sides are frizzy but that isn't a divide issue. Your hair is just dry. Frizz is dehydrated, dry hair.
unfortunately I am one of those who have been catch by the knock off
can you please review the vibrastrait brocato flat iron. I'm curious to see how it compares to the bio ionic 10x flat iron :)
Every time I see the fake ad with your face using the Revlon tool (for their shit knock-off) on Instagram, I go through and reply to hundreds of comments that it's the cheap knock-off and the Revlon isn't much more expensive. :P
Something about you makes me so happy. I really enjoy you *Milabu*
:).
I caught them using you in an Instagram ad the other day, it made me so angry! I laughed at their comments when they were saying they were bringing out a new ad for curly hair soon - not sure whose video they will steal this time!
I bought one in May after watching your vids about Revlon and I love it! It makes your hair feel silky smooth and takes no longer than my other hairdryer does. I’ve got hair past my shoulders and it’s quite thick. Thank you Milabu🌸I’m in the U.K. and got mine from Amazon.
Katrina Klapproth was it ridic expensive? It works out to be around $150 to buy it off amazon and ship here to Aus 😭😭😭
I paid about £60.00 on amazon U.K. took about 2 weeks to arrive and I really like using it.
Katrina Klapproth and you’re in the uk?
Yes I’m in the U.K.
I noticed several other brands have a dryer brush that looks just like the Revlon one (except for the colors). I'm talking well known brands like Hot Tools and Bed Head. I saw that on Ulta site. Can you review and compare those too? 😀
so basically You’re getting paid by revlon... Got it.
I could see easily the differences! Revlon looks better for sure. Thanks for the video.
I got the Revlon and the cool-setting isnt really cool. Does anyone else have this problem?
kokai83 yes! Mine gets way too hot on low also!
I find that if I am switching to cool from the hot setting it's better to turn it off for a few minutes in between then I turn it back on cool and let it blow for a few seconds to get the remaining hot air out then put it back to my hair.
@@Gina54-46 I'll try doing that. Thanks for the tip :)
I got that knockoff for $18 on amazon and it's awesome! And I have curly frizzy hair🤣 Still going for 1 year 👍
I find the revlon too darn hot for my fine hair. Wish it had heat setting. My bristles are melted too, which is telling.
Elizabeth Glass did you try the cold setting?
Same here! My Revlon is almost burning my hair on the low setting. If I use cool it doesn't dry my hair. I wish Revlon would correct this, I've read lots of comments saying it's just too hot and caused breakage because of high temperatures.
CAROLE FREEMAN , thank you! I fussed around and did find a cooler click. I don’t know why, but mine isn’t labeled. But I can use it again thanks to you, so thanks!
I have very long, fine, straight hair and it's on the thin side, not thick. Do you think my hair would get caught in the Revlon brush? I normally avoid barrel brushes because my hair gets stuck.
Hi I was wondering if you could do more of a tutorial on how to use the revlon one step. I know it seems super simple but since I bought it I'm having a hard time with it, my hair is shoulder length and I want to have more body to my hair which it gives but I have a hard time getting my hair to do anything but curl under which isn't my favourite look.
I got the dupe for $15 on amazon. It uses the same models that revlon does, of course they probably just took the images. I agree that the knock off doesn’t work very well and my hair is frizzy not smooth after use.
Please review the new bed head one! It’s the same exact thing, obviously they copied the revlon one but I still would like to see a side to side review 🤔
I just recently got to buy the Revlon after seeing you review and compare it in several videos. I love it as much as I thought I would ! It’s pathetic that these people are stealing your videos to promote a product instead of getting people to do it on their own. Knowing that fact alone would make me not want to buy it!
YESS, I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG!
Yasssss I thought they stole your content! Glad to see you address this in your way!
Please try beka wigs
Another TH-camr said that after a month using the revlon only, she feels her ends splits more, have you notice it?
It happened the same to me, but I turned to lower heat and my end are great now!
Yes, me too. I now use the lowest heat and it works much better for my hair.
Milana, is the cool setting on your Revlon actually COOL? I love this product - it’s my fave - but my cool setting is never cool. Anyone else? Is it just me?🥴
Mine is cool.
There is a lot of dust particles gathered within the brush bristles of my revlon one step hair dryer and volumnizer. The dust makes my freshly washed hair dirty and the blow dried hair are very dry with a bad texture not at all smooth and shiny.
I searched a lot but was unable to find a tutorial on how to clean it. Can you help with that?
Good review however you didn't do them the same! On the Revlon side you went both ways while on the knock off it was a one and done.
If it’s weaker then you would have to just dry the side longer to help with the frizz. Got to get that moisture out.
What does the cool shot do? I never use it, but maybe I am doing it wrong? Can you do an updated tutorial on the revlon?
Ive been waiting so long for you to do this!
I bought knock off only not only can’t you not buy the revlon in New Zealand, you can’t even buy one overseas and bring back, even with power converters. But definitely the points made are relevant, the power is low, creates alot of frizz too
The reason you're hair turned out differently on each side is due to the way you handled the tool. Maybe if you use the glove for the fake you could have handled the tool the same way.
I have the Revlon appliance and it has ruined my hair! I wouldn’t even think of using it on the high setting. My hair is/was pretty strong and my hairdresser (whom I have a long history going to) has found a lot of breakage lately, and warned me against using it because it simply gets too hot! Revlon tool is the only thing that has changed in my routine. User beware!
Would like to know what is the difference between this knock off and the one from Hot Shot Tool you reviewed in 2018...because it was also sort of a knock off but you were happy with it, was it a better copy than this in regards to the functioning?
The only problem is I was really rough with the brush the first time I used it and the bristles bent
I bought the Revlon because you recommended it and I can't say enough good things about it, I love it, it's the best thing that has happened to my hair ever. Thank you for doing these reviews ❤️
I wanted to ask you if you have ever used "it's a 10" leave-in hair conditioner or have you ever compared it to other products like it? I would like to know your thoughts.
Love your reviews! Have you tried Hot Tools new gold series charcoal infused hot air dryer? I would be interested in your review/opinion.
It’s coming up :)
Do you think the Revlon would work on thick, (a lot of) coarse, wavy hair? I just feel like it might not but I really want to try it!
I have A LOT of hair (thick and past my waist) and it saves me so much time when drying :)
@@LaylaFlorisa thanks I may try it then!
Supposed to use it on damp or towel dried hair
So, I'm hooked on the Revlon one step, but the only downfall is the size. I'm going on a trip and want to bring something comparable to the one step, but doesn't take up as much room in my luggage. Any recommendations?
I made the mistake of going on a trip and not bringing my Revlon one step. Should've made room in my luggage. Didn't need to bring that extra pair of sandals. lol
Will you compare the Revlon one to the one that Bed Head just came out with?? I’m curious to see how they compare.
I have the Revlon one and I love it ....... but for some reason the bristles the larger ones loose the shape and now they are all over the place still works but the shape of the product isn't pretty anymore is that happening to anyone else??
Here in italy i haven't find the original revlon tool, even amazon only has uk/us version which doesn't work in italy due to a different voltage setting, i was really hoping that the knock off would work as good :(
I really love the Revlon one. I have it since you reviewed it for the first time ❤️
One question: where did you get your watch band?😍
What would you recommend if the Revlon can’t be purchased? It’s not available in Aus (where I’m from), only the Knock-off is.. is it worth it?
How long hair will stay straightened by using dryer???
I’m not one to do much with my hair, but since I’ve watched a few of your videos, I’m inspired! I had seen a video before with the Revlon and considered getting a knock off. I guess I’ll just have to save up a little more. Thank you for your videos!
Are the bristles from the knock off are made of boar or of nylon?
It’s probably the best styling tool I ever owned! Easy to use.
I know!! I'm so upset that they did that. I reposted the knock off thinking it was the Revlon and said I wanted to buy it so my mother-in-law saw it and got it for me for Christmas and that was awesome of her. But she saw the post before I took it down and posted that it was a knock off that showed people using Revlon and saying it was their brand and how frustrating that was. I didn't tell my mother-in-law that it was the knock off cause I wasn't about to ruin the gift she gave me lol but it really is so irritating they and other companies do that to trick people.
I bought the knock off and work great on me... I used the Revlon once and actually burnt my hair in the high setting...
The knock off is AMAZING, no problems as shown in video. A few friends use it, with very thick and long hair, I can't understand what the negativity is about regarding the knock off. My daughters also have it, one with thick and other one with coarse hair, look like salon blow dried and very smooth, with NO frizz, they love it.
is the knock off still working?or does it did damage your hair compare to a normal hair dryer?
Woah, the knockoff that keeps stealing your likeness for their Facebook ads?
I commented before finishing the video. Oops
Thanks for this review, seeing the result there really is no comparison!
I literally just came across a pin on Pinterest for a site selling a knockoff that they originally want over $100 for and they were using clips from your video for Revlon's version. I really wanted to comment on it, but I couldn't.
Thank you for reviewing this knockoff. I have been dreaming of purchasing the Relvon from the very first review you did. Unfortunately, the Revlon is not available in South Africa (the flat brush Revlon is but after your review I decided against purchasing it). Now, I could purchase the revlon online and have it shipped to South Africa but the specs of the product is not made for our country, like the voltage and the connection point. The knockoff however has been available for a few months now and I did purchase it. I agree with the frizz and not being as smooth of a blow out but (and I have crazy curly thick hair) the time I spent blow drying my hair was half the time, which is a huge plus for me.
No the one on Takealot is the knockoff. Other ZA websites offer the Revlon but with the disclaimer that it will not work because of the power source only being 110volts.
I saw it available at Clicks (on their website) Not sure about the voltage compatibility
Can u make some videos on diys like hair mask,face mask etc😊😊and add music when u r not talking😄😄it's too quiet.
AQ. Supergirl there is music?...
I love the Revlon bc it makes blowing my thick, curly hair quick and easy. However, I notice that I have a lot of breakage on the hair framing my face since using it. Do you think it could be from this dryer? I don’t use it often, maybe 1-2times a month.
loved the video but hate the subtitles. it distracts me to read it lol
You do know that you can turn them off, right? All you have to do is click on where it says CC...
I MUST say it again...WAUWWWW what a beautiful hair you have now...soooo pretty long length and colour&shine...just love it💃😍
The Revlon its not available in my country,but the fake one is so...ill try it
I bought the knock off on Amazon. It shorted and the settings were stuck! Had no high option , and it smelt like plastic and sparked! I returned it , went and bought the Revlon. Had no issues and I love it, and far superior! The only thing that’s been negative with the Revlon is that it produces a lot of steam and I set off the smoke detector at my house!🤦🏻♀️ The good news is, I had 3 hot fire fighters at my house that complimented me on my hair! 👌🏻
i honestly cant tell the differences. you spent a little more effort and time on revlon maybe thats explained why it gives a better result
Does the knock off, have ions in it? Thanks.
Hey do we need to wet the hair before using these
beach waver with a knockoff or dupe please!
The right video I’ve been looking for. Thank you much 😊
I bought the Revlon because I like there products and because I watched you use it and I am smart because I have thin fine hair so I invested in a few wigs to wear when I don't feel like doing my hair and I watched a tutorial from a reputable utuber who wears and buys good wigs and someone stole her sites to sell knock offs and I got a couple so now I'm very careful about the products I buy so thank you for reminding me
