Have you ever tried the Dyson Airwrap? It's a hair dryer-slash-curling wand that's undeniably one of the most popular hair tools right now. It can give you a voluminous blowout *without* using extreme heat. The only catch? It's pretty expensive! (It costs around P30,000.) NGL, it's been on my wish list for a long time.
Luckily, thanks to TikTok, I recently found a more ~affordable~ alternative: Hot air brushes!

What is a hot air brush?
As its name suggests, it's a round brush that doubles as a hair dryer, so it can dry, smoothen, and style your hair in one go. I got mine from Shopee, and it only costs less than P4,000! It comes with a thick round brush attachment and it has two heat settings: Low and high. It's not too complicated, so it's perfect for beginners.

Experience
I have a layered haircut so I was so excited to style my hair with this hot air brush. To use it, I started by sectioning my damp hair. Next, I brushed through each section to dry my locks. After a few passes, I then focused on curling the ends of my hair inwards to create that '90s blowout look. It was so easy to use! It only took me around five to 10 minutes to style my hair.
TBH, the hot air brush didn't give my locks loads of volume, but it did a great job of smoothening my hair and curling the ends for a selfie-ready result. Another thing I loved? Although my hair was exposed to hot air, it didn't smell sunog.
Is it worth it?
Totally! Ever since I got it, I've been using it regularly, even when traveling. It's perfect for girls like me who don't have a lot of time in the morning to style their hair. Best of all, it really does make my hair look like I just had a salon blowout. I'm impressed!
