Babyliss Big Hair...

has anyone who has curly hair got one, and if so are you happy with it?

My hair is driving me mad lately. I want it straighter. I'm hopeless at blow drying with brush and dryer, just can't co-ordinate my hands especially at the back of my head.
I've been wearing it curly for a couple of years now but I'm ready for a change.
Should add that if I go to a salon and they dry it poker straight it ages me.

Any advice please?

my mum uses this she loves it however constant use does make your hair quite dry

Yes! It is FABULOUS! I have curly hair which is prone to frizz. With the BBH, my hair is smooth bouncy and gives the kind of curl that you get if a hairdresser blow dries it for you with a barrel brush.

It can take a few goes to get used to and I'd recommend practising with dry hair just to get a feel for how to control the barrel. Wait until hair is about 80% dry anyway before using it.

I don't use it every day as I've been wearing it up more in the summer, but I always use it when I'm going out and people often ask if I've been to the hairdressers.

Made mine even more of a frizzy mess than it usually is.

Looked good after I'd done the Amazon Keratin Kit thingy though.

I've been looking at the Amazon kit. For some reason I'm a bit scared of it!
I just wish I could accept my curls and love them. But I can't.
And anyway, even if I do just leave it and natural it still looks a mess. The only time it looks good is the day after I've had it styled at the salon.

Has anybody got a babyliss you could have a go on?

I've done the Brazilian home kit too. There's a thread on here...
