REVLONOne-Step Volumizer Hair Dryer and Styler with Improved Motor – Easy Salon-Style Blowouts – Less Frizz, More Shine, and Reduced Heat Damage, for all Hair Types and Lengths (Black)

This thing has become a daily part of my routine. As someone with naturally frizzy, poofy hair, I’ve always struggled to get a smooth, styled look without spending forever with a blow dryer and flat iron. This product has completely changed that. It cuts my drying and styling time in half, leaves my hair soft and sleek, and tames the frizz better than anything else I’ve tried. I finally feel like I can achieve a salon-quality blowout at home, and it’s so easy to use. Definitely worth it!

I’ve used several blow-dry brushes over the years, and this updated version of the REVLON One-Step Volumizer is by far the most effective and user-friendly. The improved motor is noticeably more powerful without being too loud, and the airflow is strong enough to dry and style my medium-length hair quickly with less heat exposure.The brush is lightweight and easy to handle, even during longer styling sessions. The oval shape gives great volume at the roots while smoothing the lengths for a polished, salon-quality finish. I also noticed significantly less frizz and flyaways compared to my regular hair dryer and round brush combo. My hair feels softer and looks shinier after each use.It works beautifully on both freshly washed hair and second day touch ups. I have already recommended it to friends with different hair types, and they’ve had equally positive results. This tool has become a staple in my routine.

After seeing the advertisement for a similar, higher-priced product, Amazon search results brought me to this Revlon dry and style all-in-one for a quarter of what the higher-priced product cost; this is a steal in comparison to the competitor.The DeliveryThe product showed up at my door in its original box and they slapped a mailing label on it. This gave me pause because since there was no protective packaging, I thought for sure the dryer would have been damaged in transit. Thankfully, the product was undamaged when I took it out of the box. On further inspection, it was not scratched or dinged up and it worked as soon as I plugged it in.The DryerThe product itself is quite large and larger than what I had expected. The oval shape of the brush head seemed concerning to me as I've only ever used a round brush with my NuMe Ionic Hair Dryer. The settings are cool, low, and high and are located on a dial at the bottom end of the dryer. To use the product was self-explanatory, all there is to do is plug it in, select the heat setting, and off you go to a great blow out.The ExperienceBefore blowing out my hair, I use whatever hair product I have on hand at the time. Right now, I am using a coconut oil hair moisturizing serum which helps to temper flyaways, leaves the hair with a smoother finish, and moisturizes. For my hair length, a nickel-size amount is just enough for my just-past-the-shoulders hair length and then comb through. Then I section off my hair to make drying more manageable.Starting with the back sections, I started with the low setting and brushed in a downward direction and letting the brush feature volumize on its own. The back sections are the most difficult for me because they are, for some strange reason, wavy, unruly, and difficult to keep straight. This brush dryer brought the back parts out and under for a nice bouncy finish. It was nearly a perfect 'C' formation that I couldn't believe. I then moved to the side sections and the crown and was surprised with the volume the brush gives. While I'm drying the side sections, I'm leaving hair rolled up in the brush and allowing it to remain there for a few seconds before I gently pull the brush through the length of my hair. Unbelievable. It was almost like having big Texas hair.Finishing up with the rest of my hair, I noticed that the grip on the dryer is much more comfortable than my other hairdryer and round brush. The thickness of the pommel makes for a very comfortable grip, and I didn't realize what a difference size made. The other thing I noticed is at the upper end of the dryer, there is room to grab the end with your other hand and work the brush into a rolling motion (if you like to use two hands, which I do).During the first use, I timed it as it normally takes me about 7 or 10 minutes to dry my hair. With the Revlon, it cut that time in half. My hair came out dry, volumized, shiny, sleek, and the finish was as though I had taken a straight iron to my hair before applying a curling iron. There was so much bounce to my hair that it felt like I just got a hair cut. When I pulled my hair into a pony at the end of the day, the pony was bouncy.The Next DayWhat I noticed when waking up the next day is that my hair was still bouncy and still sleek. With my normal hairdryer, I still had problems with frizz and my hair just did not keep through the rest of the day. Consequently, for second-day hair, I had to use a dry shampoo to give it a little life. With the Revlon, second-day hair felt just like it did the day before, which was nearly a shock. I called my girlfriend who had been looking at this product with me, and I told her that everything they said about it was true - and I didn't have to do my hair the second day because it kept through the night. Say what?!The PredecessorThe old hairdryer and round brush went back into my mom's bottom drawer in her bathroom, for when she comes to visit. Although I have a sneaky suspicion that when she tries my Revlon, she's going to toss those in the can.The Negative ReviewsYes, I have read all the negative reviews about how this thing craps out after a few uses, or two months, whichever occurs first. I hope that it does not happen here, and if it does, I will update this review to let you know how long it took for it to die on me.As for the other reviews about how the hair turns out following use . . . (1) don't leave the dryer in one place while you use, or it will burn your hair, doing anything with the application of heat has a tendency to burn if you leave it too long, that's just physics, (2) I did not have any hair loss while using this product, but I do comb out my wet hair first to work out any knots and tangles and comb through any product I am using before drying, and (3) if you do not have bounce or sleekness, um, go watch some YouTube videos and learn how to comb your hair.Great product, unbelievable. Totally thought it was a gimmick, and pleasantly surprised at how well this works - and for the price - you can't go wrong!

Very easy to use and produces good results that my wife swears by. She finds the heat and air flow speed as expected/needed and it dries hair thoroughly. However it is difficult to clean and has a durability issue - the longer bristles on the side break off too easily in regular use (which may be an indication that they aren’t made of a material that stands up to the heat that the unit delivers.My wife has gotten through three of these in four years and while it’s not an expensive item to replace it seems a shame (and bad for the planet) to have to replace the entire unit when the motor is going strong and seems like it could go on for a few years. Perhaps this is an example of built-in-obsolescence?A good improvement here would be for Revlon to make the bristle section replaceable and provide two bristle sections in the box — that way the main parts of the unit could continue to provide good service over their expected life rather than having to be replaced every 16 months because too many inexpensive bristles have failed.

Love, love, love this blow dryer. Its super easy and fast to use and gives my lon length hair the perfect volume it was needing. I can literally style my hair in about 15 minutes after I wash it. It does get really hot so be careful, I use the low option. It has cool, low and high blowing options. The quality is great so far and I've been using for about 2 months now.

"I can't believe I didn't get this sooner! The REVLON One-Step Volumizer is a lifesaver. It dries my hair in half the time and gives me a perfect salon-quality blowout at home. The volume is incredible, and my hair feels so soft and smooth. It's a must-have if you want to save time and get beautiful results."

I ended up getting mine from the warehouse for somewhere around $18 and I really liked it. I felt like it was easy to use in the heat settings were pretty intuitive. I have a decent amount of hair, so it was really nice to be able to dry it while focusing on the scalp and without having to section it out a lot. I think it’s good value for your money if you get it for a good price. It is a pretty hefty tool so you might have to use two hands at some points to pull the brush through. But I actually love how big it is, I feel like it’s hard to get too tangled up because it is so large. Definitely make sure that you keep your hair away from the end so that it doesn’t get caught up in the fan. I’m not overly skilled with it, but I felt like it gave me a nice little blown out look. I think it works really well and feels very efficient because again, shes big.
