Babyliss big hair or similar?

I want to be able to do a bouncy blow dry. My hair currently sits on my shoulders. Can I achieve this well with the big hair?

And is it any good? Or is there one better than babyliss?

I have the dyson airwrap which comes with attachments that make it easy to blow dry nicely. It’s obviously not cheap though.
Also used to have the babyliss big hair and found it worked really well, but did break after a year.

Huge fan of big hair! It takes a little bit of getting used to but then it really does look like you’ve had a professional blow dry.

You can send the Babyliss Big Hair back to be replaced if it breaks. I've done this multiple times in the past. More luck with the one I have now, which is the small barrel one. My hair's really fine so I don't get big hair, but smoothed hair. Wouldn't live without it.

The big hair is the best electrical product I have ever got for my shoulder length hair, much easier to use, light to hold, watch you tube for tips, dry hair with dryer first till nearly dry. Would recommend.

Not sure if it’s any good as haven’t used it myself but I did notice Asos have them half price when I was browsing through their sale last night.

I’ve had my BBH years, I really rate it! I have a chin length Bob. I rough dry my hair first then use it, gives a good amount of lift and shape I never achieved with a round brush.

Really? Send it back to the retailer? I think I'm on my 3rd one (but that's over7-8 years, and I use it 3+ times per week).

Revlon One Step is far superior to the Big Hair imo and mich more gentle on your hair. I had a lot of breakage with the BBH.

I love big hair especially for holidays when you can use it in between hair wash BUT I’ve recently gone shoulder length with layers and barrel just seems to big to get a bounce. A smooth wave but that’s it.
