Review title is Works, but you have to have realistic expectations [SEP] I have abundant, thick, coarse, wavy hair. I have done it all to tame the volume and sponginess of it, but finally gave up as it was too time consuming. I have very little time to get ready in the morning before heading out to work, so I bought this brush to try it, since I am always looking for a solution. Now the verdict:<br /><br />It works well as long as you are not looking for a fast miracle. It heats up quickly and and goes through your hair like a regular brush. It dies tame unruly hair and gave me a flatish look very quickly, I went through my entire hair in less than four minutes and my back of the head volume went down and the sponge &#34;pyramid&#34; went down. I ended my few minutes long styling with balm and there! I looked human again and it lasted all day. My hair feels silkier and definitely looks like I spent more time styling it, but not salon styled of course. It suits my needs so I am keeping it. I would say it gives 68 percent flat hair, which is a good result considering the time invested, If you want to look like Hollywood star or the girl in the advertisement of the product, this is not for you, and you will need to go to 30 minutes blow dry and 30'minutes flat ironing if you want flat straight perfect results.<br /><br />Pros<br />-Attractive packaging<br />-It works if you have reasonable expectations<br />- Fast fair to good results<br /><br />Cons<br />- Product looks cheap and chintzy<br />- The brush's bristles are made out of very hard plastic, ouch!<br />- No glove included, although the handle doesn't get hot<br /><br />I am satisfied with the results. Now I can go to work without looking like a mop everyday. Whenever I want my tresses to look flat, I would use my flat iron, but for every day, go and run quick styling, this seem like a good compromise. Hope it lasts as it looks like a cheap price of Chinese rubbish.
