Is the new Babyliss big hair really that easy to use? Even if you're a complete novice?

I'm wavering on the new Babyliss big hair thing. I've never bothered with hair styling as my hair is long and thick so takes too long and I haven't got the co-ordination to wield a hairbrush and a hairdryer at the same time!

So it does look tempting. Anyone able to get me off the fence either way is welcome.

I'd like to know too, my hair is super long and super thick too, by the time I've finished curling the second section with a normal curler/wand the first section has dropped!

My hair was long and thick until last week. I’ve had my babyliss for a couple of years so when my hair was shorter (shoulder length) and layered so not as thick. It’s now short again, above my shoulders but still thick. Definitely far easier to use the big hair on shorter hair. Tbh when my hair was longer I avoided using it as my hair would always get caught up in the spinner where it joins the handle. And it took ages to do my whole head. More hassle than it was worth. But now my hair is short again it’s far quicker than blow drying with a normal round brush.

istand I have shoulder length hair ... a lot of it and on the thick side , is that long enough to make it a hassle? In your opinion?

And do you have the newest model ? They claim is better and does not tangle ... not sure if to believe but would love for it to be true so I can get one for myself as tired of my hair styling dilemma

I got mine a couple of years ago so I don’t think it will ve the newest model.

When mine was shoulder length it was thinned out and had layers so it was quite manageable. I wouldnt try and use the big hair on my hair if it wasn’t layered with loads of the weight out.
