Today we're going to be looking at the Revlon Round Brush Hair Dryer and why it has been ruining and damaging so many people's hair! If you've used it yourself, let me know in the comments if you love or hate it.
#revlonhairdryer#damagedhair#splitends - Jak na to + styl
Can confirm. The first few uses, my hair looked amazing. Then the split ends came like mad. My hair became so damaged, it still hasn’t recovered after an entire year.
Yup it’ll do that. I’ve had to cut off a lot of dead ends!
But are you using blow dry cream before you use it? It’s a godsend and an absolute must
Oh my god I just got it 😭
how often did you use it?
Have you found one of these that doesn’t damage your hair as much?
I'm glad you made this video. Reading the comments and realizing a lot of people had the same experience as myself is confirming my decision to not go back to the convience of these brushes. I really enjoyed how fast and easy it was. But just like others, I have way more split ends than I've ever had, my hair has fallen out in chunks, and everytime I brush my hair, I have 2-5 inch long strands of hair falling out all over the place. I've been doing my own blowouts for 14 years, so I know the whole process of protecting your hair, and I apply the same principles with the revlon brush. I broke my third one in two years and I decided to save money and go back to using a round brush and blow dryer. The first time I used my blow dryer again, I felt how much less heat was on my hair and saw how smooth and shiny it came out. It made me realize the Revlon brush has probably been the issue with my hair for these past 2 years. I guess the only positive out of this is that my hair is thinner and it takes a lot less time to blow out my hair now lol.
Guys!! Make sure you’re using blowdry cream before you use it. It’s a godsend and an absolute must whenever you blowdry your hair. Redken big blow out cream is literally the best product you can buy to protect your hair from the heat for fine/medium hair type. Also you need to put on heat protector stray if you’re going to straighten your hair afterwards as well as the blowdry cream. This should definitely help
No amount of heat protectant can protect from the heat of this brush. Straightening your hair after using this brush will just destroy your hair. You can use heat protectant before a blow out sure, but this tool is too hot.
I haven’t had any problems with mine, my hair looks super healthy still and iv had it for months! Also I didn’t mean straightening your hair after using the blowdry brush. I was just explaining you need extra heat protectant after blowdrying normally if you was to straighten your hair after.
I've used heat protectant and my hair still felt like straw and very damaged. I'm giving it to Goodwill.
I've been using mine for a year, and my hair is great! Hasn't damaged my hair at all! But, I do not use it when my hair is real wet. I make sure my hair is nearly dry, and I never tug on my hair. If you wait until your hair is almost dry, and only have to use this a minimal amount of time, then it's fine! Also, use a heat protectant on your hair! My daughter actually has been using her's for almost two years, and no damage at all, whatsoever! I love it, and wouldn't trade it for anything. I use it at least twice a week. I think many are using improperly!
That's great to know, thank you for the tips!
I also made sure my hair was almost dry but still fried my hair even on low heat. I am so sad about it as I enjoyed how beautiful it made my hair look.
I can confirm as well. I have had type 2 thick hair all my life. I am 36 years old. My hair’s only drawback is it’s innate frizziness but it has been weathering my general lack of care and my 2 inch straightener for years strongly. There is always someone commenting about the length, thickness and strength of my hair any time I go out. And then I came across this twisted tool. I have used this only 3 times total and a week later after my second use, I noticed my hair starting to fall. And then more and more and then it was falling like I have never seen before. In just 2 weeks time, my hair lost half of its thickness. I followed all recommended practices: used a blow dry heat protectant, rough dried before styling, not touching heat on my hair at least 3 days after etc etc.. I am mad at myself for allowing myself to fall for this trap. I will not give it away or sell it as I do not think this is a healthy tool for anyone. As for convenience, I do not see this tool adding any to your daily life. I could straighten my hair in half the time it took to blow dry my hair using this device. It also did not remove all the frizz from my hair, but my straightener usually does. Total waste of money for me. And I hope whatever damage my hair endured isn’t permanent
Yes unfortunately it’s horrible and should come with a warning. Sorry that happened to you 🧡
Thank you for spreading the word about this. I've been telling my clients day 1 to stop using these. They come in frizzy and ask why? The hot air brush is why! It's too much direct heat. You want to lay the cuticle down not bust it open.
Trying my best! Thanks for sharing!
This fried my hair as well. Was so nice at first but after over a year, I was wondering why my hair looked like it was thinning but only in the front. That is where I focus the dryer on. Thanks for this.
You're welcome. Hope you get your old hair back :) !
Mine is doing the exact same thing. Have you tried anything to make it thicker again?
Same thing, I thought I was losing hair due to stress but just realized yesterday it was the Revlon smaller brush. I had switched to low heat but as you say then you have to go over it more and it still got very hot. Thank you!!!\
Hi Francine same thing with me but two years in and I was scared I was balding. Did you do anything to help hair growth?
@@CupcakeGroganbuy a split end mending cream, only thing helping me right now
I have a Revlon brush, and it has 3 settings hot, low and cool. It looks like the one you used in your demo. I use it to brush my hair dry after I wash it...not to style my hair. I actually think it's not meant to be used on dry hair.
I use blow dry creams, I use heat protectors, I use everything, and STILL my long hair is broken around my head above the ear height, I noticed my hair was a lot thinner, and I am horrified at the damaged I did to my hair using this, its now in the BIN. I look like I have one massive layer around my head, it looks ridiculous, I am not using any heat on my hair ever again.
Sorry to hear about that!! Heat protectants wont work unfortunately :(
Confirm too. I have seen such a damage in a very short span of time! Will never ever use that brush again !
I have burned my fingers on my Revlon dryer. My hair has been one increasingly dry and frizzy. I’ve decided to go back to go back to a hair dryer and brush. 😮. I like to wash my hair 2 days a week but I exercise several times a week so I need to style my hair more often. I’m ready to cut my hair off 😮. Spot on review. Thank you 🙏
Sadly can confirm. My hair felt great and was in an amazing state. After using the Revlon brush a couple of times my hair is fried and broken. Wouldn't recommend to anyone.
Sorry to hear :(
Thank you for your video, glad to see a professional talking about it, I was about to buy it but will invest in learning how to blowdry, as far as I can see it is better than investing in this product.
Yes definitely invest in learning how to blowdry your own hair or get a Dyson Airwrap. Thank you for your comment!
I could not figure out why my hair was falling out and breaking!!!! Ugh!!! Now I know
Yeah it’s honestly so bad
Thanks for the video. I LOVE the Revlon Round Brush Hair Dryer and my hair looked amazing when I used it. I used a blow dry cream and heat protectant and noticed how bad my hair was getting and felt awful. I'm taking time off of it and probably won't go back to it. I loved the results at first, but not the lasting ones.
Sorry to hear. I also find the bristles way too harsh on any hair type. Hopefully your hair will go back to its natural state soon!
Thanks for this honest review! My fine hair is frazzled & I couldn't decide whether it was this or my straighteners (150C 2 x per week) but I think you've just given me the answer. Think I'm going back to large velcro curlers.
Thank you for your comment!
I’m throwing mine out after watching this. I had no idea this could be why my hair is all breaking 😩😩
I used this ONE time and sent it back to amazon. It made my hair one big frizz ball and even on the low heat its very hot. My hair has been falling out ever since. Not split end damage but literally whole pieces coming out from my root.
So sorry to hear that!
I tell you my experience. I always pre-dry the hair with a normal dryer, try to divide well my strands, I use a heat protector spray and I probably do this once or twice a week. Yes, can't tell you the hair isn't frizzier than before using the brush, but I have to give you the full disclaimer: my hair is very curly and porous by nature. I think it is not fair to expect that, after all the regular heat and pulling-tension of this blowdries, no hair would fall or break. It is the price for wanting salon hair, I guess. I'll keep battling the damage with olaplex and some nourishing treatments... C'est la vie!
Yes !! I've only used it a few times and everytime after I find so many freaking split ends. AND I used it on low
Yeah, it's so bad!
After two years of use, about three times a week, I have so much breakage at the nape of my neck an entire section underneath that is straight up 5 inches shorter than the rest of my hair.
Yup it'll do that unfortunately
same here
I loved it the first time but by the second was losing hunks so got rid of it. Sorry to hear others had same issue but I had thought that it was just me.
I have to disagree, I've been using this once a month and my hair is perfectly fine. Even normal blowouts cause damage over time, just like any heat to hair. So not more damaging than any other blowout product/method or flat iron 🤷♀️
Once a MONTH?? Normal people would use these every day or every other day. If you're only using it once a month, why would you even be comparing your experience?
I actually like low heat because I air-dry my hair halfway first then blowdry on cool
Can still be too hot
I've been using the TYMO hot air brush...I'm convinced that these hot hair brushes are one in the same..
Probably!
That “face palm” moment on the mannequin! 🤣
Lol!
I don't have the dexterity to use the hairdryer in one hand and a brush in the other, so the revlon brush was the solution. Now I don't have a solution.
I've been actively using mine for over a year and my hair is significantly thinner than when I started. I love the convenience of the design but the wand gets too hot and has ruined my hair :(
Feel ya. I have thin hair and although I LOVE how fast and smooth my hair gets after using this, I now have SO MUCH BREAKAGE around my hair line it’s SO BAD. Stopping the use of it now. 😢
i’ve had long thick hair my whole life and wasn’t sure why my hair was now dull, flat , and overall damaged . I’ve been usuing the revlon brush for about 9 months now. going to stop and hope this is what’s causing the damage
Me too my hair is damaged and thin now but I need to straighten my hair and I feel like flat irons are just as bad 😭😭
Thank you very much for the review. I have the Revlon brush but I used it only once as I found it too hot and I thought that it would ruin my hair already damaged by colour etc. It is in my drawer and now that I have had your professional review, I think the Revlon hair brush will remain in my drawer. I regret my purchase but I’d rather try to blow dry my hair with a round or paddle brush even if it is not perfect as I am not the blow dry expert. Thank you very much for your review.
Exactly. Glad that was helpful
I never change the heat on a blow dryer either lol. The brush ruined my hair but i think it’s the pulling from the brush and not the heat.
It's both. The heat is hotter than a flat iron, it's terrible
One time, it looked beautiful, buy it wrecked the health of my hair and curls. Considering a chop
Yes unfortunately they’re too damaging
This makes me so sad, I really love how much time I save with this brush :(
I'm so depressed about this. I suffered telogen effluvium and lost half of my hair around 2009. It never grew back as thick. With the pandemic I decided to treat my hair very delicately with minimal heat or products. Just trimming and tlc. Then, with all the hype about these brushes - I went against my better judgement (why would I want to air dry, blasting heat, from the inside out, not down and along the hair (re brush and hairdryer).... Said hype got the better of me because switching brushes and arm ache from brushing and drying with my hairdryer felt so tedious and painful. I have literally (I am sure) destroyed my waist length hair after using one of these brushes just 5 times. The first time it came out OK but subsequent times it's just worse and worse and now it suddenly won't hold a style or look smooth at all, even with lots of products and using my heated tools, it is frizzing right up and losing shape. What can I do? Honestly. I was pleased it dried my hair quite quickly but now I think I was better off even just rough drying with my hairdryer and then ironing. Is there no hope? Have I caused irreparable damage and wasted my money and undone all of my hard work?
Hello, Interested in your story. Any updates?
Try pureplex it will help a bit.
Cut the ends where it's thin and start using bond building products like Olaplex or K18
I have the paddle one and used it once my hair already looks thin. I have fine strands im returning it asap.
These tools are not the best
i have so much breakage now all the way up to my root :/ and if i touch my hair accidentally directly after using this it burns me :,) it is very much so way too hot
I have been using this and have a bunch of broken hair right at the crown. I threw it away 😒 been just air drying now. But will probably have to cut my hair off 😒
Unfortunately yes :( Sorry you went through that!
I broke all my hair now I have very short broken pieces at the top of my head. It’s awful.
I have the original Hot Tools one, which has decent heat settings. But I might go back and try a regular hair dryer again.
Yes please. The professional brands like Amika and Hot Tools are probably much easier on the hair. Revlon is the cheaper version so it's not going to be as good. If you want to keep your hair healthy, definitely go for an old fashioned hairdryer.
@@sklptdhair from one fine and thin hair gal to another, thanks!
Thanks for this video. I think this has been cause of my wavy thin hair looking like hair loss at the crown. I'm throwing it out and going to try your recommendations. Any tips to regrow ?
So glad that was helpful! I would just leave it alone for the time being. You can try Castor Oil once a week and use minimal heat.
how can i get my dryer brush to stop pulling my hair out ?
I just bought a revlon and I don’t understand why does it smell like burnt plastic really badly????
Hi just wanted to know y my brush always get melted when I use with hairdryer plz help
Oh no! Either bad quality brush or it’s high quality and not meant to be used with heat
I just got one. It’s does have a cool setting. Do you think that will damage the hair less?
It would take forever to dry and will give no shine
How would you go about restoring hair after using it? I refuse to cut it all as it takes forever for me to grow it back😔 thanks!
Olaplex maybe? Eventually you will have to cut the damaged hair off
I had to chop my hair off cause of this brush 🥲 I thought maybe it wasn’t that so I tried it a few months later and THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I’m so dumb lol had to get even more cut off
Edit: I got that much damage using low heat. The metal part still heats up like crazy :(
Oh jeez so sorry to hear that! This tool is a nightmare!
Have you found one of these that isn’t damaging your hair?
Listen I love high heat as it’s the only thing that gets rid of my frizz, but this dryer brush’s heat is too constant. And it’s not just the direct heat that’s ruining peoples hair, it’s the tugging that this inevitably causes. I’ve watched video after video before deciding whether or not I wanted to try it, and I decided against it just by watching other peoples experience. Even while raving about it, I’m watching as they rip at their hair over and over again 😩 It’s not the same as using a round brush and a standard but good blow dryer, there is no choice in technique like you have with two separate tools, it’s just one tool with one way to use it. No good for me. No thank you. If you practice like I have for many years, it doesn’t take an hour to give yourself a blow out with a round brush and blow dryer. Small sections actually dry pretty quickly. It takes far longer if your sections are too big. So while it might seem counterproductive to section smaller, it actually results in getting the job done faster. That’s why your stylist can do it faster than you, they know these little tricks to the trade, besides having more experience in doing it more often.
Also this isn’t really a new concept, in the 70’s and early 80’s it was the rave to use brush attachments on blow dryers. Guess why it didn’t stick around? The damage they cause far outweighs any convenience of turning two tools into one.
💯
You are right it's not just the heat it's the insane tugging required to use this product. I used this during the pandemic to straighten my curly hair abd it was fine at first, but over time it destroyed my hair and caused significant hair loss. My hair was so bad that I couldn't leave in its natural state, so it was a viscous cycle of my straightening my hair to make it look descent. Ive now been using nonheat methods to straighten my hair and it's starting to heal. I can even allow my hair to be in its natural state again. This not a great product and shouldn't have been allowed on the market.
Hello. Which you would choose between Remington Curl & Straight rotating air brush or Babyliss Hydro fusion hot brush ?
I haven't used either sorry
@@sklptdhair can you recommend something? Tks
My hair is a
Disaster….Thanks to this 😞
Sorry to hear!
I had to cut 6 inches of my hair after using this for a year!
I’m so mad 😠
I just got one and it has a medium setting
Can someone suggest a healthier option? Some people mention the Drybar and T3 one... I want the 90s blowout look but I'm not good with round brush 😞 it's not my cup of tea unfortunately!
You can try a professional one like Amika, but they are all very similar.
FYI we have a FB group now you can join: facebook.com/groups/6596830316998448/
Omg I came across this video because I have been using this and my hair is literally breaking bad. Smh!!! Any suggestions to help restore the hair loss? It’s literally inches shorter. I didn’t even see it leaving it’s like it happened over night 😢
Sorry there is nothing you can do except cut it off :(
The whole draw of the blow dry brush is we can’t use a round brush and blow dryer on ourselves. Soooo……
hi! do you have suggestions for better alternatives of blowdry brushes? perhaps some with more heat settings or some with just lower heat generally? x
Dyson is your best option
@@sklptdhairthey're a ripoff.
@@sklptdhairI’ve brought the Dyson hair dryer solely for their claim of preventing heat damage and 2 years plus and 400 bucks later, I can honestly say I’m really happy I brought it. My hair is pretty healthy and drying it doesn’t take forever.
I only suggest buying it if you’re willing to shell out big bucks because it’s basically an investment
Is there a blow dry brush that’s less damaging or that you actually do recommend or no?
None that I know of atm
It also fried my hair :/
This tool made my hair break off in massive chucks. Super scary.
Yes it’s horrible!
What are some good alternatives?
Use a good ol' blowdryer and brush.
@@sklptdhair OR USE A GOOD OL' BLOW DRYER WITH A COMB ATTACHMENT
This seriously hurt my hair. I will never use it again.
Yes unfortunately it's pretty awful
Hi Lina! Question for you - what Kevin Murphy line would you recommend for me to use to repair the damage caused by my Revlon brush after 2 years of use? I have thick, medium/course hair. Thanks :)
I love the Re.Store
I need help with getting an answer too! I’m thinking of cutting it short 😢
What about if you put heat spray?
Nope, there isn't enough heat protection product to protect you from this inferno
I used heat protection every time and still damaged my hair like mad.
I suspected this. Came here to confirm. I’m throwing mine in the trash. My flat iron is safer a better alternative frankly. The low heat is STILL just as hot btw
Not even heat protection helped me :(
These blowdry brushes are SO DAMAGING. Of course using heat is never a great idea, however this brush fries your hair. No amount of so called "heat protectant " is gonna save you.
Product is total crap!! Thought this might be the culprit on my frying hair!! Now I know by other reviews!!! Going straight in the trash!
This tool is dangerous. I hate it so much.
It's pretty bad
Weird way to use this brush in my opinion. Wash your hair, put on blow put cream, use this brush on damp hair. Leave your hair alone for a week. No damage.
Ok but have you read the comments? Weird way of leaving a comment
