THERMAL SAFETY
The thermal cap of the brush with retractable combs has an open design, so that the hot air comes out freely, and sometimes unpleasantly “tingles” fingers if you hold the nozzle with your free hand. The second nozzle has a closed cap and protects your fingers.
EVALUATION OF BLOWING MODES
Claims 2 speed/temperature and cold blowing. Indeed, unlike many hair-brushes, this model switches and blowing speed and temperature simultaneously .
The first mode – moderately hot air at low fan speed, the second mode – hot air at higher speed. However, the test shows no difference between this mode and the “cold air” mode. The hair dryer blows very warm, even moderately hot air.
This mode as the first can be used for slow gentle styling, but not for fixing the hair.
Nozzle attachment
The nozzles are not worn on the body, but inserted and locked by a thumbwheel on the housing. Of all the systems for attaching the nozzles, I would single out this one as very convenient.
Round brushes
Brush with retractable combs: tube diameter 30 mm, by turning the top cap the bristles can be removed, which helps to avoid hair tangles and create curls. The combs are non-flexible plastic, durable, and have rounded tips so they don’t scratch your scalp. Curling with this attachment produces large curls. Note that during the test, the comb retraction mechanism did not jam or get cranky, and its switching is quite convenient.
The brush with massage bristles: 25mm diameter tube, the bristles are fine but tough, flexible and resilient, with rounded tips for a gentle massage. Very good quality nozzle! Great for creating volume in medium to short hair, a larger diameter is needed for longer hair.
