I love my Helene of Troy Hot Air Brush with the white bristles, how is this Thermal Hot Air Brush different?

Hi Eileendresser, if you check out my review of this product you will see that I have short hair and I bought the 1 1/4 inch hot brush first. It worked after a fashion, but then I went back and bought the 3/4 inch hot brush and am much more satisfied with that one.Judy

It blows hot air. The bristles are wire, does not tangle. I think it works 100% better than the plastic ones. I dry my hair a bit, then finish up with the hot air brush. I can't do without it!!!!

Wow, 2 years after the last post no one, not even a Conair competitor, has wandered into this discussion?? I am looking for a GOOD dual voltage hot air brush for my upcoming trip to Italy and am still finding very little. The Conair still has the same problem. I am always astounded to find a demand without a supply in this material world... am I looking in the wrong places?

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.

I've noticed that too. My old Revlon one didn't get quite as hot and I could put my hands up to it without getting burnt. I think it's the difference between the this one having ion technology and the old one not having it. My old one did, however, also have the funny smell. I had it for about ten years before it died. I'm wondering if it's possibly the nature of the beast with this product when made by Revlon. I believe the smell is from the bristles getting hot, but I could be incorrect on that.

I am not too sure about the differences. My dentist provided me with the diamond clean when I bought the unit, and I really like diamond. I like the size (it's compact in brissel size) and shape of the brush. Sorry I couldn't be more help!

The bristles are 1/2 inch long I have super fine naturally blond hair. This curler enables me to add some bodywithout frying my hair...love it! Hope this helps

Great brush, for my straight medium length hair. Dries my very thick fine hair quickly, leaving it silky and smooth. My hair takes a long time to dry and most brushes start to melt in the first week of use. This brush has not melted and is very kind to my hair. The bristles are thin, there are no nubby tips. Would highly recommend this brush.

I have not done this for the Helen of Troy brush but in the past I have taken bristles from another brush and replaced the worn out ones. Hope this helps

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.

This brush is wonderful for styling and the bristles are very stiff. They will hold the hair and there are also different heat settings.

I just changed brushes, my original Signature came with the "pet brush" installed as well as a backup with the regular bladed brush that has no bristles. Can't believe how much louder it is with the "bladed" version. Luckily I am here to order another "pet" brush so will only have to endure the louder version for a few days and since "ava" is programmable have her set to run when we are at work. Will be interesting over the next couple of days to see the difference in what she picks up with the blade vs the pet brush.

From what I can see the Nanolonic Mineral has been locked into the bristles whereas the other one doesn't have that. I have the one with the blue handle, but I think I might try the silver classic to see how it works. It sounds a little more efficient, but have not used it. Good Luck!!

I would consider them medium. My wife & I both love this toothbrush. I use it more gingerly than she. It would seem the pressure used to actually brush is more of a factor than the soft, medium or hard bristle type, in my humble opinion anyway. There seem to be three different types of bristles on the brush head itself. Hope this helps !

Mine heats up quickly whether the high or low setting. Swivel cord moves smoothly and none of my thin fine hair gets caught in the joints. Hard bristles are shorter and hold my hair exceptionally well (and I don't use tons of styling products either). All in all, this has been the best heated brush iron I have ever used to date - a few friends liked it so much, they went and bought their own !

My hair is curly and even more so in humid weather, but my hair is thin. I chose the green (normal) brush. It works fine for me. The bristles go right to my scalp, no matter how messy my hair is. I would think the blue brush has longer bristles, not completely sure though.
