I am a hairdresser and have used many hairdryers over the years. This is the best hairdryer ever! It is lightweight, comfortable to use, just the right air flow on both settings and gets hot enough to style the hair with a round brush. Oh, and half the price of others I have purchased! Totally recommend this hairdryer. Love it!!

I am a new stylist always looking for ways to improve my service for my clients and since I began using this dryer my clients are so much happier and are able to leave early. This has cut my drying time in half and for curly hair the diffuser is great. I have already reccomended this product to fellow stylists and will continue to do so.

This Conair hairdryer surprised me! Let me start at the very beginning so you can understand why...

I am an African-American woman with relatively dense natural 3C+4A hair. When stretched my hair reaches armpit length and is healthy. My hair is not thick, I just have a lot of it, and thus why I wanted something that could handle my hair AND be gentle enough to use for a blow out. Reading the reviews for this hair dryer, I was a little worried that it wouldn't do anything for my hair since I saw very few reviews from people with natural hair. However, I decided to order it anyway because I was in desperate need of a new dryer (my last one was from the mid 90s and overheated all the time).

First, let me say that the heat on this dryer gets hot very quickly. That's something I'm not use to and unnerved me at first because I was trying to avoid frying my hair. However, the medium setting was perfect for a light blow out. I sectioned my hair in to 12 parts, washed and conditioned with Queen Helene's Royal Curl conditioner and shampoo. I used Silk Elements Megasilk heat protectant and Roots of Nature Curl Reviving Spray on each section. Ladies with natural hair, detangle before you use the straightening attachment.

The manual and the instructional DVD will tell you to put the tension setting on a 4 for African-American textured hair and tight curls (the tightest it can be). Do not learn the hard way as I did: 4 ripped out my hair. Luckily, since I started with small sections as soon as I felt that grip, I gently worked my hair out and started again. This time on a 1. That's right ladies, a 1! After 3 passes over, I had a beautiful blow out that didn't revert as soon as I left the section. To make it even better, after going over my whole head on medium, I went back over each section on high and got beautiful shine and it looked like I had done a light flat iron. I may try this again on a 2 to see what happens, but my results were wonderful!

So any women looking for a nice hair dryer to do blow outs, this one is great! It even got my roots to lay flat and that was something I could never do with my old hair dryer and comb attachment! Don't sleep on this. It may look scary on the outside, but I was surprised how gentle it was to use. Also, the cool shot is great for a little bit of fluffing out before doing micro twists.

Great purchase! Thank you Amazon and Conair.

I chose this item for its size and the fact that it included a diffuser. Diffusers with full-size hair dryers are VERY cumbersome in size and I specifically wanted a smaller unit with a finger diffuser. Nearly impossible to find! This is one of very few units that was compact enough. I haven't tried the straightener that's not why I bought this dryer although it looks to be well-made also.

It's a great, manageable size and easy to use compared to my full-size dryer/diffuser. Seems to be constructed quite well a tad heavy but not unusually so. Switches don't get in the way of holding and maneuvering the dryer. Heavy duty cord is nice and long. Again, everything looks to be well-made.

Quite happy with this hair dryers are such a personal choice that it's hard to buy one online but this purchase worked out well and is pretty much just what I wanted.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I have long, thick, wavy hair that has always been a challenge to style without taking a ton of products and a ton of time. Several years ago, I purchased the first generation of the Conair Infiniti with the hope that the ceramic plates would ease the frizz factor with a minimum of effort.

The Infiniti was the best blow dryer I had ever had, that dried my hair quickly, with a minimum of damage and a maximum of smoothness. I was very interested to see how the new, improved version would work.

To say I'm pleased is an understatment!

It's true, the newer version of the Infinit is slightly heavier than the old one, but to be honest, if you're used to doing just about anything to get your hair to look decent, the minimal weight gain isn't much of a deterrent.

The plates on this Infiniti version are better, smoothing out the hair follicle nicely and quicker. There's less "ouch" dragging it through your hair than the previous Infiniti; I chalk that up to the two comb feature.

The diffuser is a nice touch for the days when you don't want to go through the hassle of hair straightening. I don't use a concentrator myself, so that's not an issue for me.

I recommended the previous Conair Infiniti, and I'm happy to report the new version is an improvement on an already excellent design. I highly recommend it.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I was very excited to try this new Conair Infiniti 224 since I do like to straighten my hair from time to time, which I usually do using my normal hair dryer and a styling brush and my hands. The description, package and manual for this product really focus on the straightening capabilities, since that is the big feature for this product. I was hopeful that the Conair 224 with straightener attachment would be easy to use and work well for me so that I could straighten my hair more often.

What I like about this product:

Nice quality, solid appliance

Attractive and stylish appearance

Versatile comes with straightener, diffuser and concentrator attachments

Two fan speed settings and 3 heat settings + a cool button to set your style

No tangles from the comb

No static the ionic feature works for me to cut down on static

It has good power and dries hair quickly

Attachments can be rotated 360 degrees (clicks in at 1/8 turn points)

Adjustable tension on the Straightener attachment comb (although I did not need it)

Long, high quality cord

Nice flip out cover on the back mesh that covers the air intake, for easy cleaning

Good manual with lots of tips on using the dryer and attachments

Other comments:

Straightening attachment does not work as well as I expected on my naturally slightly wavy hair with fine to medium texture. It was difficult to guide my hair through the comb attachment. My hair is about shoulder length (longest strands are about 12-14") and the dryer and attachment seemed to be so large and bulky that it was not easy to get the dryer and my hair oriented, even with the rotatable attachment. The appliance seemed to work okay for straightening the sides of my hair (with a lot of coaxing) but was especially difficult to use at the back of my head and some of the waves were difficult to comb out. I find that a brush with my normal dryer (or my hot air brush dryer) works better on my hair and is easier. I think the Conair 224 may work great for straightening long or very long hair.

The dryer is very bulky and hard to handle. It is awkward to put up near my head. It also takes up a lot of space to store. Although the weight makes the styler feel solid, it is really quite heavy and gets tiring to use. The diffuser attachment is huge 5" across by 4" tall, including the spikes.

I did not have any problems with inadvertently switching air flow and heat settings, even though the buttons are on the handle.

I did not perceive any increase in volume from drying my hair outward from the roots when using the Straightener as directed, as implied by the manual. (Note that I do get an increase in volume from drying my hair outward from the roots using my normal hair dryer and my fingers, as I probably would if the Conair 224 were used in normal dryer mode.) I also did not perceive any improvement in the shine of my hair. The last 3" or so of my hair seemed frizzed out (but not static-y) after using the dryer.

Overall, the Conair Infiniti 224 is a good, high quality hair dryer, but the straightening attachment just did not work well on my hair. I wish I could rate it higher than 3 to 3 ½ stars, but it just did not live up to my expectations for this mid-range appliance with straightening capabilities. If I were rating it as just a regular hair dryer and not a styler / straightener, I would give it 4 or 4 ½ stars (but then the price should be much less, if it were a regular hair dryer).

The dryer works and it is easy to assemble. There is two speed and two (not 4) heat settings and then there this Ion knob can bet either on or off. They must be adding this Ion knob to euphemistically call it 4 heat settings. The unis is OK and it works. WE have had it only for monh. Most great dryers have a interlocking switch with the from the front visor, so that when you lift the visor the unit turns off. This one does not do that. It is a nice feature to have. This unit is an inexpensive unit and is good value for the money. It could have been a great unit with few minor enhancements.

This fits my Babyliss 2000 Pro Ceramix Xtreme really well! It has a tight grip and I don't feel like it will fall off, but it's also not difficult to get on and off. The diffuser is also very lightweight, which I love b/c it doesn't add to an already heavy hair dryer. Some may see the weight as flimsy, but my toddler has done his best to destroy the diffuser without success. As for the three heads, I've only used one of them so can't give an opinion on the difference between them. At first, I thought the head that came attached was stuck, but it does take a bit of muscle to initially loosen. Once I figured that out it was easy to get it off/on. About the diffuser not being "universal," the opening where it attaches to the dryer is tight (about 2.5" in diameter) and wouldn't fit my larger Conair dryers. Measure your dryer before ordering.

I purchased this diffuser because the diffuser that came with my Conair Ion Shine 1875 broke. I read in some reviews that this diffuser did not fit the Conair 1875. It fits my hairdryer securely. It is large and requires a hairdryer with a long enough nose. It is larger than the diffuser that came with my Conair 1875 which at first I did not like. While waiting for this product I attached my broken diffuser to my hairdryer with duct tape. That was effective so I considered keeping my old diffuser and returning the product. I am so glad I tried it first. It is amazing. I have naturally curly hair that I am always battling fuzziness. The air is diffused better, creating no blowing. This made a noticeable difference. My hair dried faster and because their was no blowing my curls have less fuzz. Because the diameter is larger I can dry larger sections of hair at a time. My hair drys faster and my curls turn out better. I believe the combination of a larger drying area and, most importantly, a better job of diffusing the air, is what makes this diffuser a superior product.

My hair is a naturally wavy, but the back of it is so wavy (and not in a pretty way) that no matter how much time I spend on it, I can never straighten it using just my blow dryer, or even afterward using a flat iron. It's hard for me to get my arms around back there anyway. While this product isn't a straightening product, when I use it, I'm able to flip my head over, brush my hair from scalp to end while drying, flip it back and finish the back of my hair with a round brush on the ends. My hair stays smooth and straight until my next shampoo.

This product leaves my hair silky and shiny, and I'm a 54-year-old woman who has my hair colored and it still makes my hair look great. I highly recommend this product. Beware, as my stylist told me, that you can see some "smoke" come off your hair as you're drying it when this product is in your hair. It's not your hair burning, it's just the product and the moisture evaporating together.

I bought this because I was tired of all of the heat damage from my regular hair dryer that blew my hair all over the place. I bought this knowing that diffusing dryers spread out the heat, and this dries my hair in half the time. It doesnt leave it hard either like some other diffusing driers I've used. I would recommend this to people with delicate hair or with curly hair.

There is a High and Low setting, and a Cool button as well. The attachment is great for getting close to the scalp without burning yourself, and for adding volume.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program When I ordered this, I thought I was going to be disappointed yet again as so many products claim to be for curly hair, but, I needed something other than my stand up bonnet hair dryer. Maybe this time?

Yes, time! Huzzah!

The first thing I noticed was it's heavier weight. But this is necessary to accommodate the larger area of the blow dryer "mouth". There is also a "diffuser", but actually, it acts as a curl separator, and for me, a guide so I didn't place the dryer too close to the scalp and hair.

Typical blow dryers use a small aperture of air, about 2 inches in diameter at the mouth, and you pop on the diffuser. Conair had the smarts to have a 1:1 ratio, where the diameter of the blower is equal to the diffuser. There is a greater surface of air coming out, so it doesn't get funneled. How logical is that?

As a curlygirl, I tend to need to have my hair soaking wet and have product in my hair, so when I turned the dryer on, I smelled fabulously pungent ionic air which speeds up the dying time. I don't understand the technology, so I don't know if that is something that can be used up, or wear out, but for now, it is super, and truly hope Conair built it with longevity in mind.

This is a 4+ star item after initial use. I have a learning curve on how to best use this dryer, but I am now free to travel from my house knowing I have a portable dryer that does the job. Buy this and try it for yourselves.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program My daughter and sister both have naturally curly hair. My daughter uses regular shampoos/conditioners that include silicones and sulfates. She used this dryer on her hair and it dried it without disrupting her natural curls and no frizz. My sister uses only sulfate free "No Poo" products on her hair, only towel/air dries to avoid frizz and she also used this dryer and now wants one of her own. I was surprised because my sister has not used a dryer in many years because she can't find one that's affordable that will only dry her hair without frizz. They were both very impressed with this dryer. I did not try it myself because my hair is straight.

Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

This curling iron does what it states...heats up quickly, doesn't pull on hair, lightweight, makes pretty curls. My only issue with it, which is not that big a deal but more of a nuisance, is that it does not save the heat setting that you want it to stay at. So for example I use it at 400. So every single time when I turn the curling iron on, I need to set it to 400. Otherwise, it's pretty good.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Unlike any hair curler I have ever owned, this John Frieda model has multiple heat settings to handle styling needs without damaging your hair (by far the most important aspect of the iron for me). It has the ever-important auto-shutoff function and surface/luggage heat protection options. I can't speak to the temperature testing in an earlier review (wow, that's dedication!), but overall I'm pretty impressed by the features in a relatively inexpensive product.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This curling iron got hot super fast, so there's no waiting to curl your hair. There are temperature settings, so I opted with a medium heat.

My long hair is stick straight and super fine, so sometimes it slips out of curling iron's grip, which can make it hard to style your hair. This gripped my hair tightly without tugging and there was enough heated iron to wrap my hair around several times and hot enough to heat all the way through the multiple wraps of hair.

My hair is hard to curl, so I was happy with the loose curls I got from this iron. The width is nice at 1 1/4 inch and I didn't feel like it made my bangs too poofy and 80's looking.

Warming pad was nice touch and fits nicely by the sink. I like that it turns off on it's own but not so quickly that you have to turn it back on while doing your hair. And the cord doesn't get tangled big bonus.

Honest reviews on John Frieda Curling Iron

PROS:

I picked this up in my supermarket at a whim. I had not used a curling iron since, er....let's say the 80's ladies. I've used the flat iron at the suggestion of my hairstylist but could not make curls without there being a crease on one side so I stopped using it. I was surprised how much more advanced they have become. I remember the old school ones that had one heat setting and you burned your forehead trying to curl your bangs. No more with this one...you can adjust the setting. I set it to the lowest setting (220 degrees), and this is more than enough to curl my hair. I have fine straight color treated hair and am very careful not to further traumatize it. You can use some product as well to protect the ends (I use the Sammy brand found at my local market). I don't find it necessary to use hairspray to hold the curl like I did in the 80's which is an added plus!

I like that it is lightweight, heats up quickly, and has automatic shut off. I especially like that the curls last! This is huge as my experience having straight fine hair is that I can expect my curls to be non existent by the end of the day. I notice that when I wake up the next morning the curl is still there.

CONS:

Mine did not come with the heating pad, but I'm using a cork trivet instead and that seems to work fine. I'm sure pot holders would work as well.

The buzzing sound also was a bit concerning, until I looked at other reviews and they said the same thing. It is not your hair burning, just an odd sounds that it makes. I don't notice it as much now.

My only criticism is that the cool tip is the same color as the iron and handle so I could see myself not paying close attention and easily reaching for the wrong end and...ouch, I've just burned myself. I think they could have made the cooling tip a different color. So far this has not happened, but none the less a concern.

The packaging mentioned something about "ionic". It would be helpful to have a further explanation somewhere that tells you exactly what that is. I am familiar with the ionic hair dryers, but I'm sure this is very different.

------

Other than that, I really like it. It is a nice change of pace from my hot air curling brush, heats up fast, easy to use and works really well.

This curling iron is just okay. The barrel is a good size and it heats up quickly. My 1st complaint with the product is that when I turn it on it makes a noise like the motor is running. It's not very loud, but I have never had a curling iron make a noise the whole time it's turned on. My 2nd complaint is the tip of the curling iron is too small and is almost the same color as the barrel. When curling my hair I use both hands, one on the part below the barrel and the other on the top tip to help curl. This tip is much to small, so I keep touching the hot barrel. It doesn't help that the tip is almost the same color as the barrel. My 3rd and final complaint is that the buttons are placed in a bad area. When curling my hair, I accidently pushed the heat temp button, which made it get hotter without me knowing. I also pressed the on/off switch by accident. I only realized I turned it off when the motor sound stopped. The buttons are right where your hand needs to be placed. Since it was so inexpensive, I'm debating if I want to keep it or return it.

This wig is a blend of kaneolane fibers with real human hair.While it feels somewhat softer then synthetic,it still feels like there is more fake hair then human hair.

The color was very nice and quite flattering on me.A mix of soft light browns and chestnut tones.The waves hold their style easily after many washings,and it needs minimal care.

The bangs are a bit unruly though,and the top kinda poofed a little too much.As with most wigs that have waves,I felt it tangled easily and often.

I think it is a very pretty wig,but for the price,I'd prefer an all human hair wig which I can I can purchase for about the same price at my local beauty supply store.This company is in the UK,so with shipping costs it can add up.
