Turn on the hair styler and grab an inch-wide section of hair. Then place the end around the barrel, wrapping it around once or twice. For extra curl, twist it up a bit first. No catch! This tool is surprisingly lightweight with a good cord length and swivel function that makes it easy to use. We’ll admit; it takes a bit of getting used to if you’re not familiar with hot air brushes, but it you take the time to experiment with what works and what doesn’t, this is a real game-changer. Once you’ve chosen your attachment (we love the 38mm and don’t use the 20mm much, but to each their own), it’s time to section out the hair. Let’s break it down below.

Multifunctional Hair Dryer Brush】A perfect combination of hair dryer, comb, curler, straightener, and massage brush. Perfect for blow drying and hair styling, easily creates volume in your hair. Secure the curl with a pin if you want more definition; otherwise you can just flip the hair forward to add even more lift while you work through the remaining sections of hair.Unique Design】1: Slim and lengthen the handle, optimize the grip feeling; 2: Oval brush head, convenient to make hair styler; 3: Nylon Pin & Tufted Bristles, perfect for combing hair and head scalp massage; 4: ON/OFF on the mid of handle, easy to control. The 360° swivel cord allows high flexibility to move freely without the cord becoming tangled and damaged. Hold in place for about five seconds, occasionally moving the hair tool up and down the hair shaft to dry it more. The piece of hair you initially laid down should be sandwiched below the layers of hair closer to your scalp.

Our favourite? The 38mm thermal brush wins by a landslide. What makes the TRESemme Volume Smooth and Shape Styler special?

The best way to use this is by starting with hair that’s about 60-80% dry already. Rough dry it with a hair dryer to the point you’re happy with, then grab the styling tool. However because the barrel is thin, you’d have to work in pretty small sections and hold the hair in place for a while to get that desired effect. But if your hair is thin and short, you could definitely use the smaller head attachment as a curler.
