Handy tool
The brush heats up quickly and it is good for a relaxed look ..good product ..

Discussing both 1 1/4″ and 3/4″ brushes.
Edit review March 27, 2015 — I had to retire this hot brush because the cord began to be loose where it joins the body of the device. I’ve just placed my order for the 3/4″ brush once again because I like this specific brush so much.I originally bought the 1 1/4 inch Instant Heat Hot Brush because I had allowed myself to be convinced by watching a demonstration of a similar product on television that the size would work well for my hair. I was not all wrong, but after I used it a couple of times I wondered if I would have better results with a smaller brush. I have short hair (does not cover my ears) which is very fine, but also thick and straight. As it gets some length on it between haircuts it lays down completely flat on my head. I need height and volume, but don’t want curls.I bought the 1 1/4 inch brush and liked the convenience of it, but the brush was simply too large to wrap my hair around. I had a lot of difficulty picking between the two sizes for my first purchase and quickly began to wonder if the smaller brush (closer to the size of my curling iron) might not be a better choice for me. I ordered the smaller size and it does exactly what I want. I get lots of volume, the cowlicks on the crown of my head are controlled, I don’t have curls or waves, but the little tag ends of hair around my ears and nape of my neck now lay down flat. Oh, and did I mention that I don’t like to spend a lot of time fussing with my hair? This small hot brush is perfect for me.Both brushes work and are designed exactly the same. Everything pertains to both hot brush sizes. There is an on/off button with red or green indicator light, turbo heat on/off button, a turbo heat indicator light, comfortable textured handle, chrome barrel, plastic bristles, and a cool tip. Begin with clean, dry hair. Damp hair works too, it just takes longer with more passes of the brush through the hair. Styling products can be used on the hair. Hair should only be wrapped around the brush twice so longer hair will require moving the brush along the length of the hair, beginning at the end. Trust me, you don’t want those plastic bristles to get tangled in your hair. There is a temperature guide for the 25 possible heat settings, but you have to be prepared to experiment. For my short, straight, fine, thick hair I have settled on a heat setting of 17 which Conair’s chart considers medium-high. I was surprised that it took that much heat.Turbo Heat is a feature which provides a constant amount of heat, no fluctuations caused because of power changes you have no control over. I turn on the brush and turn on the Turbo Heat at the same time and for the setting of #17 that means it takes the brush over 1.5 minutes before the indicator light stops blinking. That 30 second heat-up they talk about is for the lowest heat setting number with Turbo Heat not turned on. If you turn the brush on and allow it to come up to heat, then turn on the Turbo Heat it will go through the entire heat-up time all over again. Turn them both on at the same time if you are going to use Turbo Heat.I am really happy with this product. I do not shampoo my hair each day and the volume stays in my hair very well. If I want to refresh the style, I simply heat up the brush and run it through my hair as if I am simply brushing it. That actually brings the volume back. I tried today to change the style from the styling of yesterday and it actually did work. This product has dual voltage ability, but you must buy an adapter that configures to the plug you will be using. That information is easily available at various online sites. I don’t know if I will keep the larger brush or pass it along to one of my daughters or granddaughters. Just remember to be careful when using the hot brush. That chrome barrel gets very hot and will burn your fingers if you touch it. Even the “cool tip” gets warm.

Works great
I’m loving it so far! Also the length is great and temperature settings are nice to have.

No tangling
I’ve been using this product for decades and have only had to rebuy 3 times. This is the only curling iron that consistently achieves the level of soft curl I desire without tangling in my baby fine, thin hair.

Works great

A escova é leve, esquenta rápido e o resultado é excelente, gostei muito!

Purchased this to replace an almost identical product I purchased in Canada 11 years ago, same make but this one is better
