Ion Steam Pro Staightening Brush

[grownwomanaz]

@tapioca_pudding So happy you liked the Aphogee leave-in. I started using it for my roller sets when I was relaxed.
It's been months since I last flat ironed so I'm curious about the results using the brush first.

I tried it and I'm happyyyy

Love the results! It wasn't really what I expected as far as the steam process. It's like a heat tool then all of a sudden you get that lil puff of steam...I guess y'all ....lol Anywho, I'll post pictures which are kinda a length check for me as well. I'm including a picture of my roots so y'all can see how close I got. I trimmed when my hair was wet and I had to trim more after straightening...kinda wish I took picture before the dusting/trimming. Oh well. I like the results and I would for sure do it again! Btw, I never do my hair bone straight because of preference but I used it only on 340 and it got it how I like it. So it could go straighter. Actually flat ironing definitely gets my ends straighter but I'm fine with them being bigger and fluffier it makes for a cuter look (at least for me)

If interested I can type out my process but i ain't gunna do it unless wanted, cuz I got my nails done and I'm like Peter Griffin as a secretary tryna type with these thangs


@MileHighDiva Hey girl! I promised to tag you if I straightened my hair. Lawwwd, these last few weeks...traveling and trying to do my hair...smh. So that led to me straightening my hair so I could have a break from it for a while . Anyways here are some pics! lol

[CurlyRy]

Looks great! How long have you been growing your hair out?

Thank you! I started transitioning like almost 9 years ago and I went fully natural around 7 years ago. I'm not sure if it took me this long to get to this length because for a couple years I just did a free for all with my hair and I wasn't as anal about it as I was before

Not that it’s good or bad. Just too much work for me. I used mine once

Why, sis?

 

[guyaneseyankee]

Why, sis?

I edited my first comment

Not a straight haired natural

 

[grownwomanaz]

I still use mine on dry hair...Aphogee Leave-in Conditioner and a dime size amount of Chi Silk Infusion.

 

[Daina]

I have one that I gave away after one use...I have thick hair but felt like it was too much pulling through the brush bristles. I like my Revlon blow dry brush much better. I use that on the low setting and it does the job in about 30 minutes.

I think I inadvertently destroyed my ion steam pro brush.



I was trying to get the gunk out. It started smoking, the LED screen went blank, and it wouldn't steam.

Guess it's time to invest in a high end flat iron.

I thought you really liked it at first but changed your mind later. What made you pick it up again or is my memory way off?

Your memory is good. I liked the brush but didn't like my inability to use the right type or amount of product. My hair doesn't do well with synthetic ingredients, and after being too heavy handed with silicone using the brush, it took a long time for my hair to recover.

Besides that, I loved the silky results.
