I was hesitant to get this because of the price. I took the leap and don't regret it. It's so much quieter, doesn't get super hot, light and smaller in size so it's comfortable to handle. It also dries super quick!
Shark HD332 SpeedStyle RapidGloss Finisher

Next day curls are no longer a pain. This makes my hair look like I just did it. I get my hands wet and then put a small amount of this and rub together. Then combs my hands through my hair. A little goes a long way.
