Do you still use your Babyliss Big Hair?

[BlastOff]

There was a huge fad for them on here a few months ago (?maybe 6 or 7) and I considered getting one but as I was about to go maternity leave, and so money was tight, and I decided against it.

But my hair seems to have all fallen out post-baby ... And so in a desperate bid to make it look a bit better I'm planning to get my rubbishy, limp and quite long hair cut to about my shoulders or into a bob (if said baby lets me away from him for that long...), So with Christmas coming up I thought I could ask for a BBH, and maybe my last few strands of hair wouldn't be quite so, well, limp and rubbish.

So I wondered if people still used their Babyliss Big Hair and would you still recommend it?

no

Yes I still use mine but just if I am making more of an effort not all the time as I like to leave it to dry naturally.
I got mine for xmas last year when there was all the hype on here about it .
It is easier to use than trying to blow dry your hair straight with a round brush and hair dryer.

Yes I use mine all the time. When you get the hang of it it's great.

I went a bit mad with mine and used it every day.

I spent a small fortune on Kerastase, Moroccan Oil, Amargan, Argan and all that jazz, but I still fried my hair. Had to get six inches cut off to rescue the condition.

And no matter how hard you try, you still yank out a good many hairs every time you use it. I worried I'd go bald if I wasn't careful.

Now I save it for special occasions.

If your hair is delicate at the moment I'd steer well clear.

I use it everyday.

I blast with the hair dryer, then section it and do each section with BBH, then finish it off with ghds.

I couldn't live without mine.

I use it almost everyday - and quite a lot of people have commented on my swishy hair

Every day! Still love it. You might want to get your thyroid checked as excessive post partum hair loss can be caused by an imbalance.

yes I find it very quick and convenient.

Oh thomasb that really puts me off actually. I can't afford to lose any more hair!

Thank you all for all your replies, and Wips I will look into getting my thyroid checked as I've definitely lost way more hair than I did with my first ds.

I want swishy hair like MissBeehiving

I use mine every couple of days. I have not noticed any increased hair loss. I am still getting great smooth and sleek hair....

I found mind just left my hair whispy and without style at all. I get a better result with tongs. I am crap with hair though!!

Could you perhaps try a friend's before you buy?

Along with the thyroid test, have a check to see if you're anaemic. Perhaps take Spa-tone for a month or two. I swear by it - I hate red meat and it's a lifesaver keeping my iron levels up.

Yes- I didn't use it for about 6 months but we have moved to a city where the cost of a salon blow dry is ridiculous so I had to give up that habit. I have also spent a fortune on Moroccan Oil and Redken stuff. I find it is almost as good as a salon blow dry but doesn't last near as long.
