I’m always skeptical of straightening my hair because I do NOT want to get heat damage and it always takes forever to blow-dry it anyway. But when I heard that the RevAir is basically a vacuum for your hair drying it 3x faster than a blow dryer and while using half the heat, I was super curious to test it out.
The RevAir doesn’t blow hot air onto the surface of your hair like a conventional blow dryer would. Instead it gently pulls sections of your hair into a tube that envelopes your strands while pulling the water away increasing drying efficiency, and decreasing the amount of heat and time needed to straighten your hair.
Products used:
After applying my products I combed through the sections, first with a wide tooth comb and then with my Felicia Leatherwood detangler Brush to ensure each section was smooth and tangle free.
The RevAir has 3 heat settings (low, high and cool) and 7 tension settings (the speed/strength it uses to suction your hair).
Whitney from Naptural85 has a great video demo on using the RevAir for type 3/4 curls and I largely followed her method to get such great results!
How to Use RevAir
For each section I started off with the tension setting on 5 and low heat working the tube up my hair a few inches below my roots (for about 35/40 seconds) . Next I would switch to the high heat setting for a few seconds before switching back to low to dry my roots.
My hair was successfully dried but could be straighter so I brushed out the section and feed it into the tube for a final blast on high heat. TAH TAD ! Thats it, repeat this step on all sections.
I used a wand curl to style my hair afterwards and LOVED the results!
I will definitely be working this into my routine when I want to switch up my hair with out the heat damage. Would you guys try out this product? Let me know in the comments!
