Does the brush attachment heat up also to help straighten or curl hair too?????

No, just the barrel heats up, but you do get a good curl through the brush attachment.

The brush attachment slips over the closed curling iron. Then, when the curling iron is heated up, the brush is warm and provides a nice soft curl. My wife prefers this to using the curling iron directly.

Yes, I blow dry my hair with it all the time. I don't do the upside down way because I always straighten my hair. The brush has no issues with blow drying. Hope this helps.

I mostly use this to straighten my hair, however you can kinda bump the ends of your hair to curl it under a bit. The curling irons work better for curls in my opinion.

If you use it just at the roots, no it does not. However, if I get it too far out from the roots onto the rest of my hair, it straightens my curls and makes them stiff.

Yes, It does. My hair is fine...about shoulder length and it works very well. I think you will be very satisfied with it. Holds curl much, much better than the hot rollers.

You can definitely curl your hair with this flat iron. That is what I use it for.

The handle stays cool to the touch, but the barrel does heat up in order to curl your hair section. There are two heat settings. I usually set it to high and hold the section of hair to a count of 12. If it needs to be repeated, you can do so.

hi, i just got a chi a little while ago and it works very well! i think it curls better than anything.. and i thought when i got it that i wouldnt get hot on the outside but it actually does.. stinks right? but i learned how to curl my hair very well without putting my fingers on that end of the straightener. i think you should get the chi anyways and just learn how to do it without touching it. its actually a lot easier than it seems.. and practice makes perfect... i did not go out in public the first time i curled it :P

Yes, only temporarily though of course, and it's more like it makes it 90% easier to straighten. It's way more than 2 applications for me, and I have thick past-shoulder length curly hair (which is both a bit straighter when wet, and easily submits to the flat iron when I use this consistently).

No it doesn't but I love the styling tool and use it daily in my salon. It has two different size brush heads with retractable bristles so can't ever get stuck in the hair. Works best on SLIGHTLY damp hair.

You get a light brush that has lots and lots of bristles that are soft. If you use a regular brush all you have to do is pull very gently. (Each wig you can straighten by taking very hot water and poring it over the wig) It does not frizz, you can use low heat on a curler or straightener. I left it, it was pretty :)

I wouldn't recommend using heat products on it, but I will admit I straightened the hair once before. It basically makes the hair look fried.:\ if you keep the iron on the lowest setting and run it through quickly, it should be fine. I used hairspray in mine, so the "fried" look could be a result from the use of hairspray. best of luck. hope I was able to be of some help to you!

Yes, it does. Depending on the length of your hair it curls beautifully! When I had long hair I would use this tool to create large flowing curls that stayed curled all day/night. Now my hair is just an inch or two past my shoulders and cut in several layers and it still curls very well. You just have to "cup or flip" the shorter layers a bit and this straightener will do any tricks!

I have in between hair it left it kind of straigt but not as straight with a regular size flat iron. I think since you the heat is set at some random temp. It did not help taming any frizz

My straightener curls very well. The plates move slightly side to side and push down which helps prevent pulling. I absolutely love mine and would definatly recommend it

This is just a curling brush that heats up, there is no air that comes out. In fact the instructions say to use it on dry hair. It's a great styling tool!
