I am so excited to share with you the one thing in all the years that has finally gotten me to be able to actually style my hair, and no, it is not the Dyson Airwrap that I got last year, it is my Infinitipro by Conair Digitalaire Hot Air Multi Styler.
Basically, if you knew me in person, you'd know I am not known for well-styled hair, this seems to be the one thing I have always struggled with, and while there have been great tools over the years that have helped tame my hair into something I enjoy wearing, there has not been one tool to cover all my needs.
The Conair Digitaire Multi Styler is a hairdryer with a long handle and a bunch of attachments: a Paddle Brush, Curling Wand, 1 ¼ Round Brush, and a Drying Nozzle. It has three heat settings, cold, warm and hot, and two speed settings, high and low. It even has a 6-foot-long cord, so I don't get all caught up in myself. All the attachments are ceramic-coated for an even delivery of heat, too.
What have I been using on it and why do I love it? Well, basically, I have been using it as a hair dryer with the nozzle attachment to quick dry my hair most mornings now, and then when my hair is almost dry, I start using the paddle brush.
The paddle brush has a great curve to it, and even in the centre, it has a curve, so I can dry the hair along my head a lot easier. It also helps create a bit of a wave if I want to; either way, it looks great when I am done. If I really want to smooth out my hair and/or add waves to it, I will use the barrel brush.
While I am not the best at this yet, I really love how quickly I can smooth out the flyaways and kinks that are in my hair and create a great wave.
Start to end, it takes about 10 minutes with my hair soaking wet. I love that I don't have to spend a lot of time on it either.
As for the curler, I like it and it works well if your hair is still a little damp, but the barrel brush works so well, I rarely use it.
The attachments snap into place easily; you just have to turn a band to lock it into place.
Do I like this more than my Dyson AirWrap? Yes, I kind of wish I had not spent all the money on the Dyson. It is great, but this is just as good, and I am reaching for it almost every day now, and rarely my Dyson.
The only thing I wish it had was a diffuser or the option to buy one. I have wavy hair that I may just want to dry curly, and I have to dig out another hair dryer to do that (since my Dyson also doesn't have a diffuser). I would love to buy one for it in the future.
Pros:
- 4 great attachments for most of my needs:
- Paddle Brush
- Curling Wand
- 1 ¼ Round Brush,
- Drying Nozzle
- 3 heat settings
- cold
- warm
- hot
- 2 power settings
- low
- high
- Ceramic-coated attachments for even heat
- Internal ionic generator to reduce frizz
- 6-foot cord
- Sells for $110 at Walmart (so much less expensive than other brands) and up $220 elsewhere.
Cons:
- There is no diffuser or option to buy one.
Overall, I love this tool! I feel so much more put together and confident when I use it. It is relatively light and easy to maneuver; the attachments are easy to swap and use. I can get my hair done quickly and get on with my day. It also costs soooooo incredibly much less than other tools; it seems like a great option to have around anyway.
Infinitipro by Conair Digitalaire Hot Air Multi Styler is available at Walmart, Shoppers Drug Mart, London Drugs, and Amazon.ca
