Review (5/5): Good work at an incredible price
I was pleasantly surprised and extremely satisfied with this brush. First a note on the pics. I took the before pic on the left after hair had been washed, dried, brushed with a regular brush, with no product (oil, conditioner, balm, etc.) put into the beard. I then used the brush and took the pic before applying any product to style it. For something to straighten your beard quickly on days you don't wash it, this was very easy to use. It heats up fast (about a min) and within about 1-2 minutes, I was done.
As you will notice, my beard is shorter on the sides and even my chin area isn't super long. I found the shorter bristles on this brush compared to bigger brushes meant for women's hair to work better for my beard. Also, I found it did a great job if you go slowly and comb UP from under the chin first. Then go back and brush it slowly down the other side. The extension cord is plenty long. The only downside of that is that it can make storage a challenge. I don't like wrapping the cord around the brush itself. So I had picked up some cheap velcro cord wraps from Amazon a few years ago and added one to the cord to make it easier to put away.
I bought this to keep at the office. But for the price, I think I'll go back and pick up one more for the house and another to keep in my gym bag. I'm very happy with it and would recommend it to any guy with a short to medium beard.
