4 Reasons Why I'm Obsessed With This One-Step Brush

When it comes to my hair, I'm about as laid back as it comes. Though I've struggled with acne throughout my teens and adult life, my locks have always been easy-going and simple to manage. Usually, I wash my hair a few times a week, add some leave-in conditioner or coconut oil, brush it out and let it air dry. For when I'm heading out to dinner with my boyfriend or meeting my friends for drinks, I'll sometimes throw in a few curls — but otherwise, I let it do its natural thing.

While my approach toward my hair is partly due to its texture and subtle wave, I also tend to shy away from blow drying my hair because it takes such a long time. Not to mention, I'm someone who overheats super-easily, so spending thirty minutes with steam making me sweat doesn't sound appealing. That being said, I always love how my hair looks after a fresh trim and professional blow out. It always feels impossible to achieve the same results at home, so I often never bother.

After all, how do you manage to hold a round brush and the hair dryer? And have the patience to stay steady while locks dry? No, thanks. But when a friend raved about Revlon Salon One-Step Hair Dryer and Volumizer, $59.99, I was instantly intrigued.

What is it? It's a hair dryer that basically looks like an oversized brush. Though I've used Dyson in the past — which is at, ahem, a much higher price point — this amazing product, IMO, works much better, leaves hair healthier and full of volume. Not to mention: it does all of this in a record amount of time. To date, it's received nearly 40K reviews on Amazon, creating an impressive 4.8 rating. Personally, I'd give it all five of those stars and here's why...
