What does it do for your hair?

There's 3 posters on this thread who've all used the phrase 'without the poker straight look of straighteners' 🤔

Thats actually what I like about it. It smooths my hair straightens out some kinks but looks much more natural than when I use my straighteners

Yes, I get what you mean by it, I just think its odd that so many posters said it in exactly the same way

@Harmarsuperstar I'd not read pps when I posted. Obviously you can't edit so I left it.

I genuinely do have a dafni brush , which I really like. I'm not going to post before and after pics of my wavy , slightly frizzy (before) hair for privacy reasons. I have no control over whether you believe me or not, so that's that.

What’s odd about it? It’s a well known phrase and the style is definitely falling out of fashion compared to 10-20 years ago.

Its just a turn of phrase???

Fair enough. It was the middle of the night and it seemed odd. In the cold light of day maybe I just look a bit paranoid 🤷‍♀️😂

I nearly added “not quite the poker straight look of straighteners” to my post .

I agree that it’s such a commonly used phrase, especially here on S&B, that it didn’t even register that it would be thought of as strange or that someone would assume it was spam.

I've never found poker straight hair very flattering on me - my best days were the scrunch dry period (maybe we should have a thread about diffusers??!?) :)

Is scrunch dry an option when you don't have curly hair Coffeepot?

I used to have a perm (!) and layers back in my scrunch days, I'm not sure how scrunching would work on straight hair?

No idea either Coffeepot - just wondering if it created volume or something! I currently have a perm but not sure if I'll repeat it or go back to straight hair and resume my quest for a straight but voluminous result!

Have you tried blow drying your (straight) hair upside down? Velcro rollers (the big ones)?

Yes, I always dry it upside down and this gets a better result than anything else I've tried (apart from perming!). Never worked out how to get a result from velcro rollers but I've maybe been using them wrong!

I love mine and not used the straighteners since buying the glide brush.
I have thick wavy hair and like the way it leaves it. I hate poker straight hair anyway
