Curly hair: Shark flex style Vs Bellissima?

3 replies

My hair is long, thick and curly.

Bellissima diffuser looks great to help it dry faster.

But the flexstyle also has a diffuser plus does loads of other stuff, can be used to dry it straight too.

Any thoughts from others with thick curly hair?

I have the Bellissima and it takes forever to dry my hair. My hair at the time was just brushing my shoulders and it took half an hour ! I got a Dyson dupe from Amazon that's much quicker. Currently growing my hair but when it's long I'm going to get the Curlsmith diffuser, it has a massive bowl and dries hair quickly.

My 3C daughter has the Bellissima. It does take a while but 'casts' really nicely - she only washes and sets her hair once a week now - and most importantly has been really good at keeping her hair in great condition. It was really dry before she switched to the Bellissima (she was using my hairdryer with a diffuser attachment before that).

Ok thanks, think I will go for the shark as I'm happy to air dry it a lot of the time, but want something to speed things up when I need to leave the house and it's cold outside!
