Half Shot Blow Dryer Brush

SOLD OUT

Details & care

What it is: A tool that combines the hot air of a blow-dryer with the structure of a small, round brush to create waves, curls and a smooth, shiny blowout.

Who it's for: Ideal for all hair types.

Features & benefits:
- Ionic Technology reduces frizz and adds tons of shine while styling
- Strategically placed vents provide maximum airflow for a faster blowout
- The ergonomic, lightweight design provides maximum comfort
- A combination of nylon and tufted bristles allows for exceptional tension and control
- The 1 1/2" round shape creates defined curls and waves and is perfect for bangs, layers and detailed styling
- Three temperature settings (cool, medium and high) for customized styling of all hair types

How to use: After shampooing, thoroughly towel-dry hair to remove excess water. Brush out hair using a detangling brush or comb, and separate into large sections. Place The Half Shot underneath each section and work it gradually from roots to ends, until the section is dry and smooth. The Half Shot can also be used on dry hair to create a smooth, finished look.

Pro tips: For defined curls and waves, use vertically throughout the hair. For volume at the roots, use horizontally at the crown. For extra-thick or long hair, it may be necessary to rough-dry hair with a regular blow-dryer before using The Half Shot.

  • 3.5" x 16" x 6.88"

Fantastic!

I love this blow dryer! This is the size I wanted a couple of years ago and had to settle for the Single Shot. This works great on my chin length hair. I think it is a little stronger and hotter than the Single Shot. It is perfect. Highly recommend.

Bought this in store and when I opened it at home it had several long blond hairs wrapped in the bristles. Yuck.

Quite Happy

I have fairly fine, very dry hair, type 2 B or C wavy/curly. This dryer smoothed my hair nicely, while also giving me loose curls. My hair looked almost as good as when I go to the salon. Other less expensive dryer brushes left me with the typical middle aged dry hair look. I really thought it was my age (early 50s). Anyone who says the Half Shot doesn’t work probably has straight hair. You can’t curl straight hair with a dryer. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because the brush really pulls and rugs on my hair. It got tangled a couple of time. My hair is medium length and somewhat fine, so I would not recommend it to anyone with long, thick hair; especially if your hair is also very curly.

Not a big deal

This will dry your hair quickly but for me it did not save any time. I get a lot of volume and I can dry my hair quickly but it doesn’t leave any waves. I still need to finish with a curling iron. My hair is past my shoulders but no matter what temp or how much time I hold my hair in the brush, it is straight. The hot setting is too hot for my comfort. This brush might work for longer hair but sadly it didn’t work for me.

Too Hot!!

I have had it for a little over a month used it about 6 times. Today, i plugged it in before using, was plugged in maybe 2 minutes and it was HOT to the touch! I’m assuming faulty wiring?? I will be returning.
