Review: "My hair feels like silk when I use this. I have had the Brazilian blowout a few times and this feels even smoother and softer and lasts until you wash your hair again. For 8 seconds, it's Wonder Water for sure! Love it & have repurchased a few times." - AngNJax

Review: "The REVLON One Step Volumizer PLUS Hair Dryer and Styler makes my straight hair smooth, and gives some volume. It's so easy to use and you get done with your hair in half the time it would take to use blow drier and a brush. It works exactly as described and is larger & more powerful that I imagined. If you want to get rid of frizzy hair and look you you have been to the salon this is the tool for you." - Denise Chen

I love the idea of these and tried several however they're not strong enough. I'll stick to my 3000 w hairdryer. Most of these are only about 1000w.

Review: "My hair is extremely damaged and was breaking off due to sleeping and my hair matting together while I slept. This bonnet is perfect! Stays on my head! I tuck the bow in at the top after tying and it stays all night. I don’t wake up with sweaty, matted hair anymore. I put my hair oil in and put my cap right on. The blush pink color is so pretty. Worth the money and works great." - Jake G

Wanna know a great clarifying shampoo right in your kitchen. Dawn dish soap, I kid you not. Once a week or so and the gunk is gone! (for a LOT less $$)
