Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

****Attention**** To all of you women that have been eyeballing one of these when FB started sharing pictures of these brushes or a brush like this. (Note: after doing my research, the one being sold on FB is an expensive piece of crap. Never buy anything without reviews!) With all that being said, I'm not a reviewer but if I were I would totally give the Apalus Straightener Brush a thumbs up and a 4-4.5 star rating. It does exactly what it says it will do. •It straightens your hair. •It has a power button and two temperature control button settings that go up and down in temperature. •It can go as high as 450 degrees. Being my hair is so damaged from this last go around trying to get my hair lightened to go grey. I started at 390 and quickly set it down on 360. I still think this is too high. I have seen the review videos on YouTube and did my research before I purchased this. The ratings on Amazon where phenomenal. I don't purchase anything without a 4 star or above rating usually. •out of 1835 reviews, it rated 3.7 out of 4 stars. That was good enough for me out of that many reviews. •It comes in two colors pink/ black and black/ teal (picture below). •it has a swivel cord so no tangled cords and the cord is long. •it is definitely made for all types of hair. I watch several videos on all sorts of hair textures and ethnicities and actually thought "this might be too hot for my hair" because I'm Caucasian and have fine, damaged hair. But with the temperature control it works just fine. Cons or possible cons: •it doesn't straighten your hair like a flat iron because it doesn't flatten the hair. It still gives you body and makes your hair feel full not flat but It gives you that straight look that you are looking. If you are wanting the flat iron straight look this isn't for you. But for the price of 29.99 it was totally worth adding to my collection for those days I don't want to curl my hair or straighten it. •in order to get the results that you want you will have to section off the hair. When you do this, it gets pretty darn close to the skin/ root without burning your skin because the rubber nobs don't get hot. •straighten the hair first from underneath the strand for a fuller look and for the brush to come in contact with all strands of hair. It won't come in contact with all of the hair if you use it like a regular brush. •it's kind of heavy, but my arm didn't get tired of using it. Although, it's easy to clonk yourself upside the head with so be careful. • my biggest con with this is that the back of the brush gets extremely hot. I usually put my pointer finger on the back of my brush or curling iron to guide it but quickly learned to grab somewhere else. 😉 • the little rubber nobs on the ends of the "bristles" of the brush does pull a little but not to the point where it kept me from using it. (We will see how this works out).
