Babyliss big hair

Can someone tell me about it? I have very very thick course frizzy shoulder length hair. I straighten it as I can't blow dry it (other than rough drying I really am
Rubbish). What result could the babyliss big hair achieve and how difficult is it to achieve a good look (I really am Useless so I'd need it to be very easy to use).

will it work on poker straight chinese hair please? or do nothing for me? I keep looking at it in Boots. Also what size to buy? I've got just above shoulder length bob.

I have it. I wouldn't use it too much as it dries my hair out tbh and am sure it can break your hair if you aren't careful so you could end up with a lot of split ends. I used it yesterday and achieved a salon blow dry. I haven't used it for a while. You need to do it in sections. I really rate it but i am not sure if your hair is coarse and quite curly how good it would be. My hair is rather fine and a bit wavy.

So what am I doing wrong?

Blast straight with hairdryer. Use serum. Section hair. Hold in place. Second (lower) setting.

Still flyaway.

Agree with superflyhigh. It's the only thing that can style my layers. It makes my hair smooth and straight, but not as straight as if I'd GHD'd it, but the GHD'd look is just a bit too straight for me, if that makes sense.

My blow dry technique is poor, and BBH has been a life saver for me.

PS - I don't section my hair off, I blast dry with hairdryer and then use BBH to 'finish' it.
