Shark HT202 SmoothStyle Heated Comb + Blow Dryer Brush, Dual Mode, for All Hair Types, Silk

This dryer brush performs well. It's the perfect tool to smooth my wavy hair. It heats up fast and works perfectly. The best hair tool that I've bought in a long time. Love the storage bag and use it when the brush is heating up or cooling down. Easy instructions too. You won't regret this purchase!

I am an older woman, and religiously dye my grays. The texture and thickness of my hair have changed over the years, and now my hair is thin and frizzy. Frizzy from grays, and from overdyeing them. Believe me when I say I have tried every product (cheap and expensive) hair styling doo-dad and product out there, that claim to target my hair’s problems. Some I have had pretty good results with, and others? Not so much. My current regime is Pureology hair products for frizzy and dry hair, with the Revlon dry air brush. The Revlon gives decent results, but I could never, ever duplicate, or come close to duplicating, a professional blowout by my talented hair stylist. I just had to accept the fact that I am old, and younger-looking hair is not in the cards for me anymore.Enter this doo-dad. I was visiting my sister over the Christmas holiday, and she raved about this product. I decided to try it, and wow! My hair looked almost as sleek and beautiful as it does when I leave the salon! I don’t know if it is a combination of good hair products with this doo-dad that did it, but I was seriously impressed! I immediately purchased one, and am eagerly awaiting Amazon to deliver before I take my shower.Here is how I achieved beautiful hair.1) Start by using the best quality hair product you can afford for your hair type. Don’t scrimp on this part of you can. Shampoo, hair conditioner, styling product, heat protectant, etc.2) Divide your wet hair into sections. I turn the blowdryer mode on the hottest setting for my hair, and wrap each section around the brush until the hair is dry. I do this until my entire head is dry. At this point, my hair looks pretty good, but the next step is where the magic happens.3) I then go over my hair in the same fashion as before , with the heat only setting on. Ahhhhhh! Gone is the frizzy and thin hair! In its place is shiny, wavy, slick hair that shows off the layers in my long hair.My Revlon dry air brush is now delegated back into my drawer, and I honestly don’t know if I will use it again.Also, yes, this product is a little heavy, but so was my Revlon air dry brush. It feels like a solid appliance to me, and I couldn’t be happier with it.

I have used the Revlon One Step and the Hot Tools brush that are similar to this in the past, but I like this one the best. It dries my thick hair quickly, and helps retain some of my natural wave and curl, even after smoothing. I have arthritis in my hands, but although this is bigger and heavier than the other two, I find it easy to use and it doesn't cause any pain. I've had it for about a year now and it's holding up well. It's worth the extra cost over the other two for how well it works.

Good quality brush; looks cool. 15 minutes to dry my hair, but I feel like maybe it doesnt get hot enough. I've always used the Revlon brush - it's loud but hot and easy to use. However good the Revlon one is, I had to replace it several times because the bristles melt off. So this Shark one has 2 operations: one to blow dry wet hair and the other is for dry hair frizz fighting, and hair smoother. The heat level might be perfect for thin hair, but I have thick wavy hair. My hair is short so i will keep the Shark; even though it does seem too heavy.

I bought specifically for day 2 touchup and/or post gym. Loved idea of one tool to achieve both. Did not intend to use as wet-to-dry product. I usually use Dyson products, however, I have not been pleased with those lately on my hair type for any kind of day two styling. They only work for me after wash days, leaving Me sort of stranded for touch up styling the rest of the week.This product was bad for any hair. First, it immediately smelled like burning plastic. The smell transferred to my hair after only a few passes and this is on the blow dry setting only. Also, after one light use, there were brown streaks on the plastic, they looked like scorch marks, since they were not from buildup on my hair (like what you can see on the edge of a flat iron sometimes). I tried scraping at it with a nail and it was definitely in the plastic. Somehow this tool burned hot enough internally to make the odor and marks on its surface, but yet it still was not powerful at all on my hair. It hardly had any blow drying effect, and no end curling whatsoever. I’ve heard great things about the shark products, so I’m hoping this is just a flop for the first generation and the company improves, because the concept to have two and one is really great but this completely missed the mark and I ended up sending back without any more attempts because it truly felt like a hazard. I do not recommend this product to anyone based off of that hazardous experience alone, but even if that had not occurred, the product simply does not perform any task well. I could not imagine blow drying my hair with this with all the good products on the market, it would absolutely take forever. The smoothing plates also do not heat up warm enough for any styling effect, just enough to make the hair stinky. Hopefully this helps spare anyone from wasting their money on this product or damaging their hair.
