Having curly/frizzy hair I've been using a hairdryer with a diffuser attachment but it dried out my hair as it blew too fast & too hot. The Bellissima diffuser I bought was a great price. I've used it twice so far & it leaves my twist curls much softer. Wish I'd bought one sooner. 2 setting with a gentle heat & it feels great to hold. Long lead is good too.
