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

Reduces time, smoothes hair, grip is perfect!

I am learning to blow dry my own hair, which has involved more trial and error than I would like to admit. This brush has been a big help because the extra long barrel makes it easier to work through more hair at once and keep some tension while drying. There is a learning curve, but this has felt like one of the tools that makes success more likely.

I couldn't believe that paying more for this ceramic brush would make a difference. But I had to run over and write this review.( and I usually dont)..but all the claims the brush states - it heats up quickly while blowdrying, really creates smooth cuticle and and it was snag free on your hair is all true. Now I have 50 yo straight hair that going grey but its also color treated in areas too. Made my hair super silky, and the longer barrel does catch alot more hair - quicker blowout. Great product!

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

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.

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.

Absolutely love this brush. It works the best for my hair type which I have thicker hair and it is very soft. I love the fact that I can use it to blow dry my hair and it helps to dry my hair so quick so easy the handle of the brush fits in my hands so comfortably it’s unreal and even when I hit a spot that is not it it seems to glide through fairly easy. It helps to get those nuts out in no time very sturdy does it appear like it’s going to snap when I hit those knots and when I’m blow drying my hair and depending on which way I’m using it if it’s over if it’s under, it helps my hair to train to cut a curl out that way to give myself different styles of hair and helps to give my root surfaces body so it doesn’t look like my hair is flat

Fiquei muito satisfeita

Exactly as described. This is my second time purchasing this brush. I liked it so much. I keep one at home and one in my travel bag.

So glad I bought it

Excellent brush! I really liked everything about it — it dries well and doesn’t pull or snag the hair. I’m 100% satisfied with my purchase.
