Ceramic + Ion Speed XL - Extra-Long Round Thermal Hair Brush - Not Electrical - Professional Blowout Brush for Normal to Thick Hair

I have very long medium hair so it’s hard to find a brush that can handle blowing out all that hair easily. I am so glad I purchased this brush. My blow dry time is less than 15 minutes, for hair that goes all the at down my back, and it looks great from just trying to DRY the hair, let alone style it. The bristles don’t really hurt, and they capture all my hair easily. A 10/10 quality brush!

I love the longer barrel of this brush. With longer hair, it works great for blow drying and smoothing. The bristles feel nice on the scalp. This brand of brush is well-made and I own several sizes but the XL is my favorite..

Excellent XL brush! Perfect for my thick hair and dries it quicker too. Worth every penny.

This brush has made me love my hair again- I don’t usually do reviews, but had to share. I had no idea what a difference a good brush makes. My color-treated, fine, dry hair has new life and actually looks bouncy and smooth with a gentle bend. Paired with a great blow dryer, I don’t even need my curling iron anymore. Love it!

Great brush. Hairdresser recommended. Bought for my self and now one for my sister. Doesn't snag hair. No static. No frizz with using blow dryer. Not cheap but worth it.

Great brush. Think it helps dry my hair faster

I bought this as my Aveda hairstylist used it on my hair for my last blowout. She is consistently voted top hairstylist in our county each year (she's amazing). I would NEVER normally spend this much on a brush, but first time using it thought it was worth every single penny. It made blow drying my hair exponentially easier. Faster, holds hair so well (and a lot more of it at a time), smooth finish. *I have fine hair that is mid back length. It felt more manageable to me than ever before to attempt a Well done blowout. For reference, I have three other barrel type brushes and a flat blow drying brush. This one is just fantastic: faster drying time, holds the hair (larger sections at a time) easily and very well without tangling too.

My experience with this brush (hair type is a soft wave 2a-2b, ribcage length, currently bleached/dyed, super fine and breaks easily): The bristles of this brush were much coarser/thicker/rougher than I expected, which initially worried me because my hair is prone to breakage. But the bristles work great. My hair doesn’t slip out of the brush like it does with regular brushes. This brush is extraordinarily lightweight, which shocked me based on how it looks and the fact that the barrel is ceramic. The barrel is long, so I can dry larger sections at a time. I like the “pick” style attachment at the end of the brush for cleaner sectioning so that I’m less likely have the dreaded round brush tangle. The ceramic heats up the longer you use it with a blow dryer, so don’t grab it by the barrel after using high heat. Personally, I haven’t noticed it get hot enough for touching it to be an issue, but I also wait til my hair is mostly dry to start a blow out. With the ceramic brush and heat, my hair becomes super smooth and shiny. Now people think I recently dyed my hair or had it redone after I blow dry it. Even with all the blow drying hacks in the world, my hair would previously turn out frizzy before using this round brush. (I do use a lots of heat protectant because of the ceramic’s heat conduction). I like this brush enough that I might buy a smaller version to tame my insanely strong cowlick. Using this brush with high heat and gel can banish it for about 90 min, so I bet the smaller brush would grip the baby hairs more effectively and then I could get it to last longer. If you have a normal cowlick though, this brush should be enough to tame it and get the hair going the direction you want.
