I had seen reviews for Infrared and Thermal brushes, which promise to make your hair straighter, more manageable and give a better finish than just tongs or straighteners, so I was eager to have a go at these and see if they make a decent Christmas present! Could it replace my usual basket of hair styling products?
The infrared brush plugs in like a hairdryer or straighteners but is used like a normal every day brush. It does heat up quickly too. You can air dry or hair dry your hair, but it is the 142 LED lights which work on your hair to give it a smooth, sleek look with the heat generated allowing you to style into curls like you would a curling tong.
The brush can be used daily, but I would not recommend using the brush to dry your hair as such – it works much better if your hair is already dry. The extra long cable means you can stand up to use it at the bathroom mirror or keep it out of the way of little hands as it does get very hot.
The ceramic barrel heats up very quickly to 200 degrees centigrade but the temperature button means you can adapt the heat from 160-200 degrees centigrade to depend on how you want to use it. The heat allows your hair to style as if it were a hairdryer but when your scalp is exposed to red light, it stimulates the hair follicles to grow. Using the brush daily might help replace lost hair and make your hair more healthy. An added bonus of the STYLPRO Red & Infrared Thermal Brush heating up and styling quickly is that it doesn’t have the noise of a hairdryer, so if you’re getting ready in the morning and don’t want to wake the whole house, this is the perfect way to style! The brush also makes it easier to style curls, which I absolutely cannot do with straighteners, so this is an easier option.
It might take you a little while to get used to a corded hairbrush, but I started by working on dry hair and in very small sections to get the curls right. You learn how long you need to hold the curls to get the right shape, and the brush does get very hot so be careful. You soon find out why there’s a thermal glove included!
The STYLPRO Red & Infrared Thermal Brush is not just a gift at Christmas, but it can replace the tongs and straighteners at the same time. The bouncy curls give more volume to your hair too, and minimal products are needed to keep the lovely curl shape.
