Product review (5 stars): Not that hard!
I use this styler in one hand and a blow dryer in my other hand to speed up the drying process. It just doesn't dry my hair fast enough otherwise. I have a little longer than chin length hair and it is absolutely perfect to straighten and turn it under and add volume. Turns my half hour hair routine into less than 10 minutes without damaging my hair. I am by no means "handy" but I can figure out how to handle both items, which button to use, how much hair to keep in the brush, etc. It just take s altitude practice! If you keep the shield that comes with the brush your bustles will not wear out so fast. Storing it laying down will flatten them out though. I just found one of these on clearance at Walmart so I think they are clearing out the old models for newer ones. I grabbed it up to keep on hand in case mine bites the dust.
