Beauty Review: TRESemmé Volume Styler

When I got my hair cut into a bob last year I soon realised I needed a styling tool to maintain its smooth shape. I've never been able to blow dry my hair into a style and while I love using heated rollers they are time-consuming. I was tempted by the acclaimed BaByliss Big Hair Hot Air Styler but I wasn't willing to pay over €60 for it. While looking for a cheaper alternative I came across TRESemmé Volume Styler.

TRESemmé Volume Styler dries your hair while adding body and shape. It doesn't create curls, rather bends and flicks, so it’s perfect if you prefer your hair straight but with some bounce. And the best bit? You only need to use one hand! No more achy arms from holding a heavy hairdryer and brush. I find if I rough dry my hair first until it’s 80% dry (it's not a hairdryer so it won't dry your hair fully, unless you have very short or fine hair), separate it into manageable sections and use the highest setting I get a better result.

As far as I can see, the biggest difference between TRESemmé Volume Styler and BaByliss Big Hair is the fact that BaByliss Big Hair has a rotating barrel. However, both barrels are 50mm and ceramic coated and both stylers have ionic conditioning and a 700w motor. TRESemmé Volume Styler is available from Argos for €33.99
