Is this too hot for thinner hair?

My hair is slightly thin and it has done no more damage than my straightener. Just use a heat protection product also.

No my mothers hair is thin & when i did hers it was fine. Id suggest just like 15 maybe 20 seconds depending how curly you want it. I didnt have to pass 20 seconds for her hair it curled beautifully at 20 seconds.

The low (1) setting is cool enough that I can touch it with my callused fingertips and not feel the heat. The high (25) will burn hair without a protectant of some kind. I used Paul Mitchell's heat protector spray. I didn't use any setting lower than 12 on the finest hair, and I used tons of hairspray (one squirt while the hair was still on the barrel and another after I unwound the hair and glitter spray on top of that) to keep the curls through 2 shows a day. I hope this helps.

It does get hot. I use settings between 20 and 25 and I sometimes burn my scalp if I keep it on my scalp too long by getting too close

yes, I believe so. It does get hot to the touch after a while of using it. and it is not as quiet as I thought it would be but it works great on thick nappy hair.

No, and you wouldn't want it to! My hair is to my shoulders and layered. I roll my hair up on the barrel and turn the heat to high, then to cool and the style is set. I've used the ones that spin and I've never been able to use them without getting my hair all tangled up.

I have thick hair , so I have it at the hottest setting. With that said it takes less time to straighten my hair

I have thin hair very dry hair and I love it. I use the LOC (it the cream part in the LOC) method and it give my hair the perfect amount of moisture. I guess it would really depend on what you consider thin hair. I have kinky thin hair and I just use a quarter size for my whole head. Love it though and the smell!

Honestly it was too much heat to apply to my real hair. I only used it on my weave when I had a sew in. It can get really hot & I couldn't risk damaging my hair.

This gets hot..I rarely use it at hottest setting..I love it..it blows my hair shiny and smooth without much effort..I can just use condenser, and aim down..little brush work needed.

I have thick Afro-Caribbean hair and this dryer makes it lighter and more manageable. So perhaps not suitable for fine hair as it is pretty hot.

Hot and medium and ......low I think is what it is. I keep my heat setting on medium because it's enough heat to dry the hair yet cool enough to prevent damage.

Hi Larisa, Just like all styler dryers I've used it does get a bit hot to the touch. I've never found it to be a real problem as long as you're careful. I have very short hair so I have to be a bit more careful but as I said its not been too bad. For me it's still the best styler dryer I've ever found. Hope this helps you.

I usually only straighten my hair with this one, but I tried it and it worked. It gets so hot that you can't touch the outside. It also heats up very quickly!

Yes, the lowest setting is 200 degrees. As i have wavy hair i turn it up full blast!! I do use a heat protector spray on my hair every time. This is the best flat iron I've ever used.

I have very thin hair and I love it. Sometimes I use a light shampoo first and then use this as a shampoo/conditioner mix. However, I have very straight hair

My hair isn't to thick either, but I have not had any issues with it myself. It has several settings, and I usually use the highest with no problem.
