would like to know how this compares to a Sedu and or the SuperSolano Original? I have pretty thick hair that I style using a round brush if this helps in replying. Thanks!

I had the original super salono, as a hairdresser, I've used it for two years and really enjoyed it. The only difference is it is smaller and the nose is shorter. I personally prefer the 3700 because it is smaller and I can handle it better while blow drying clients all day long. Also, for personal use, a shorter nose is easier handling when it comes to round brushing.

I ended up replacing my SuperSolano Original with the 3500Lite. The 3700 was actually too much for my fine hair. The 3500 is great and it is lighter!

Hi Andrea, I can't make the comparison because I never used the ones you mentioned; however, I have to say that the Solano 3700 moda is the best professional hair dryer I experienced. It leaves the hair silky. It is just awesome and it is not too hot like others which I experienced they burn the hair.

For the person who asked the question...I am asking the same thing? I have a Sedu Revolution (6 years ago) and am wondering how the SuperSolano compares. Sedu died and wondering if there is something better out there.

I LOVE this hair dryer! Not only does it dry extremely well, I notice it is much lighter than the original Solano (my sister has that one). It's so cute too! It's got a bit of shimmer to it. I will say the Solano is a great dryer too, but I've been very happy with my Super Solano.

It's the same. I've used it a few times. It's amazing. I was skeptical about buying herstyler on Amazon also. I have several friends who buy herstyler on amazon too. Hope you take a chance on it. If you don't like it return it. I love mine :)

I had one like this and it only lasted a few months, and the brush kept falling off. Previously I used this brand and had no problems. I think the other one looks like a newer model, maybe better?

I also have thick hair, although mine is straight. With other brushes I usually get poofiness; with this one I've noticed my hair is much softer and smoother after brushing. The wooden bristles absorb some of the natural oils from the roots of your hair and help spread the oil to the tips of the hair. The only downside to this is it can get some dust collecting on the bristles if you brush your hair when it is not clean. To avoid that, I only use this brush after washing my hair (2-3 times per week). My hair is healthier than it has ever been. Hope this helps :)

This is how my hair is except it is very heavy too.. It works well if your hair is dry.. but I found it didn't actually straighten wet.. I did love it however it stopped working after maybe 6 months of scattered use. I am using the remington s9260 one now and It works really well on my hair, it gets really hot so it straightens a lot faster. I only wish I had gone with the 1 inch one instead of the 2 inch since I have a chin length bob so it can be hard to get the shorter peices at the bottom with it.. maybe at some point I will invest in that one too.

When I brushed mine, the curl looked different but a little more natural also. I liked how it looked better after brushing it than before but that's just my personal opinion. Sorry I can't be of more help :/

I have fine hair too. I'm not very good with the brush but the curling iron attachment worked well and the hair dryer attachment is great because the blower isn't too strong and it doesn't blow my hair flat like other hair dryers do. The issue I had with the curling iron attachment is that the cord doesn't spin very well and the cord wore out. Unfortunately, there aren't a lot of options for things that work well with short, fine hair.

I have the same hair type. I love the brilliance because i don't wash everyday. The enrich was still great but it feels heavier than the brilliance. I've used only brilliance for the past 2 months and i love it!

I love mine. I have looked at them in the store and they are the same. You can buy them at Kohls and Bed Bath and Beyond in the store. Compare prices and do the best deal. They were the same brushes for me. You can always send it back if you are not happy. .

I own both brushes and this does not come close to the UD brush. I bought this in hopes that it would be a dupe because the UD brush is a pain to clean (and takes forever to dry), but it's easily one of my favorites brushes. It's a powerhouse that I use to apply almost everything from liquid/powder highlight, undereye concealer, setting powder for underneath the eye, liquid foundation). The real techniques brush is OKAY in it's own right, but I wouldn't buy it if I were looking for a dupe for the optical blurring brush. Save your money and buy the UD brush. The only thing I use this brush for now is to apply and blend my highlight. I own both brushes and this does not come close to the UD brush.

Bought mine years ago based on the "hype" and I liked the way it handled but didn't see a monster difference. I think it just fit well against my lid and reached all lashes from edge to edge. It felt good to handle and squeeze and I didn't have issues with right vs left hand/eye. What is critical is the shape of the curler and how well it fits against YOUR eyelid to pick up lashes. Shu has a softer silicone pad that does do a softer curved crimp for me vs the acute 90 degree bend with a harder rubber pad like Shiseido. I can skip the 3 crimp (base, middle, tip) technique with my Shu curler with Shu pad. It does a great job for me with shorter stick straight lashes. I used to heat my curlers w/ my hair dryer to get a better holding curl. I don't have to heat with Shu. The choice of mascara (H2O proof, watery or dry, fibers or not) and brush shape(comb or bristles) is the other part of the whole eyelash process. What does the hype say? Googled it and found from InStyle magazine: &lt;Shu Uemura: Winner ('13), `12, `11, `10, `09, `05 Unlike most in its category, this tool "is easy to hold and fits all eye shapes," says L.A. makeup pro Megan Lanoux. And it legitimately curls (not bends or creases) lashes.&gt; We are having problems buying refills online for this curler so are buying Shiseido refills from Amazon which costs as much to ship as the 2 pk refill. I would love to have someone answer this for you who has new curlers from Shu and Shiseido and compares.

Brigette, I went on line to order this product because I was referred to it through my cousin who was turned on to it through her hairdresser. I looked on the box and all I found was "Ne Qual" Spa and Alter Ego Italy. When you go on line and look up "Alter Ego" it will probably give you the information you're looking for. Or you can ask your hairdresser at the salon. Hope that was helpful...S. Sargent

Hi Turtlesaver...thought I'd share with you this update on another flat iron. I took a chance and bought the Conair YOU flat iron....while it doesn't get super hot (two settings hi-lo)...it has "plates" that curve around the sides which seem to deal well with the rough ends issue. It works best if you've straightened your hair with a round brush and hair dryer first....which is what I typically do. If you're going from wavy to straight the Conair You won't be hot enough. The Infinity Pro I ended up returning it was awful.

I went with this color for the same reason. It worked out ok... To be honest, I used the whole thing.... But ended up going back to my Rita Hazan spray. Definitely pricier, but I felt it was more natural looking. I guess it depends where on your head you're using it. I use it on the hairline, with a parted ponytail, etc., so I need it as natural looking as possible. Hope that helps!

I have short hair that's pretty thick. It does a good job for me. I liked the one I bought for travel so much, I ordered another for home use.

I have medium length natural curly coarse hair. I have tried many brushes over the years for my blow outs. This one is great in that it grabs my hair without pulling and I can dry my hair faster. Also I don't have use a curling iron (flat iron) afterwards either. My hairdresser suggested and I'm so glad she did.
