Which diffusing method is your favorite? I personally love the plop & hover! Check out the new diffuser here: glnk.io/l8r7/gena
I contacted curlsmith and got following response- It is currently US exclusive but we may consider bringing the the UK/EU soon!
How can you remove the diffuser? I have the dryer and it is completely stuck and I cannot remove it, it is impossible.
plop and hover, but I'm going to incorporate the pick to the crown
@@pitayaroja2579 turn the base and unscrew it
I would love for you to compare the Shark and Curlsmith in terms of volume, definition and comfort level in using. As always, a great detailed video!!
I am definitely putting the dryer and miracle shield on my wish list. You always provide great reviews and tutorials for curly hair. TY
Great review, Gena! I bought the Curlsmith blow dryer, and I love it. I used it for the first time yesterday with the Miracle Shield and my other favorite Curlsmith products. My coily hair came out defined and moisturized using the stretch method.
Love your videos! I really like your tips on diffusing! ❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗🤗😘
I am still pretty new at all of this, but I love the Shark dryer. Plopping and hovering looks very promising! You always look great! Thanks for all of your hard work!
I just bought this hair dryer and I love it! Thank you for this video. Showing the pick attachment in your video was bonus info :)
Yay! You had me at 8inches. This could really help me. Still working on the diffuser method that works best for me. You make it look easy. Beautiful results again❤
Thank you! Its so large and amazing lol
I love your channel and since I have been trying to go back to my curls you have been a great help. Thanks for the product suggestions and the technique. I am 58 years old and have been covering gray and straightening my hair since high school in the 80's.
This information on the Curlsmith hairdryer was an absolute game changer for my curly/frizzy hair. It took me so long to finally buy it because i tried cheaper alternatives with just buying different diffuser attachements for my hair dryer. Wish I had just saved myself a lot of time and frustration and bought this diffuser. Its hard to believe it can dry the hair so quickly without high heat that I am used to and it makes the world of difference in the final results. Thank you so much for all your videos and for all the information you have shared. I have watched and re-watched countless times when I was trying to work with loving my curly hair
Thank you!! This is basically me ...... "Do I buy the Curlsmith dryer, or do I keep doing endless research and getting more and more confused?" It's a bit like trying to pick paint colours ...... fifty shades of everything!! I shall go and seal the deal. ❤
purchased the travel one the diffuser is still huge LOVE IT... thanks for your tips Gena
Well that's just great 😒 So last summer I bought the Dyson, &c couldn't help myself & bought the shark (for the diffuser really) a couple weeks ago and of COURSE curlsmith had to bring out the big guns & launch a dryer with a huge diffuser! AHHHHHHHH!😆
I feel you!
The Shark is an amazing dryer and I still recommend it! I switch around but have been reaching for the Curlsmith one lately because it still dries my hair quick but with less heat
Omg thanks for this tutorial this is amazing 🤩😱😱😱😱😱😱your results look sooo good from using it
Thank you!
Wooaa it looks amazing, to cut dry time
just bought one for mothers day. Cant' wait to get it.
Thanks for sharing I’m a tightly coily curly and I’ve been trying to decide between Shark and Sally’s Ion Luxe Supercharged hair dryer. I might get this one because it’s definitely less expensive.
Yeah it's great!
I was going to get the shark blow dryer. But since you review the curlsmith dryer. I think I am getting the curlsmith dryer.
Thank you Gena for all your videos! They are so informative and I've learned tons from you! I recently got the miracle shield heat protectant and have used it just once. So, is it supposed to be used before the curl cream/leave in conditioner or in between the cream and the gel?
Yay! thank you!
It says after leave-in and before stylers, which would include cream. Since I don't use a leave-in and just use a cream and gel, I usually apply the spray first to clean hair, then follow up with cream and gel.
I will get excited when I can buy JUST the diffuser.
I happen to be in the market for a hairdryer and was thinking of the Shark! However, I might opt for this instead! Hopefully those Ulta 20% off coupons will apply at some point!
I used a 20% coupon on mine this weekend 😊
going through all of your beginner videos and taking many notes! (for later lols)
I am sort of a beginner curly hair gal and need much help. I want my curls to have their best life, they have so much potential!
Good luck on your journey!! It’s fun and sometimes stressful😅
I also do the plop & hover!
I just got the blue Dyson at Christmas and I love it, but yes the reviews are correct for pixie diffusing it is too hot and I use the cold shot button a lot. I do wish it had a warm setting. I have arm pain and I do think the short Dyson is better as with a long dryer like that I would worry that it puts the arms in such an awkward position. The diffuser looks really interesting.
Thank you for mentioning the length, I struggle with traditional blow dryers with diffuser attachments because they're way too long to hover with!
Hi Gena! Hope you’re having an excellent day ☀️ or night 🌙 lol. I want to ask what is the wattage of the dryer? I tried looking for it in the website and didn’t find it.
Thanks in advance 🙏🏼
Hi Gena, could you compare the Shark hyper air with the curl smith dryer? I am trying to decide between both. I have long, High density, medium width hair. Any thoughts here?
Might be time to retire my Deva dryer 🤔 Thanks for the awesome review!
Wow they must really like you and really value your opinion that’s about $300 wish they were my good friend lol you’re doing great love your videos
Hi Gena
I tried to diffuse my hair upside down but the problem is the hair from the back area separated to right and left and then when I finish diffusing and turn my hair upright, i find gap “space” in the back area ,
Is there any solution to prevent this or i should diffuse it upright position only???
Thank u for everything
I live in Germany and am wondering if the voltage says 110-220v on the power chord. Would you mind please checking to see? I’ll be so excited if I am able to use it here!
On the website it says it is 110v
I wish you would do a video on the shampoo and conditioner living proof line they have the frizz and they have a whole section for just curl hair I would love to see someone do that
I have already done a video on the new living proof line here:

Have read a lot of good things about this dryer - FHI Heat Elite professional series dryer. Have you tried it yet? Would love your review!!
No, I haven't!
After finding many high-end dryers too hot for me (including the Shark), I actually found a dryer I LOVE because it gives unprecedented control over both temp and air flow, so I’m not in the market for a dryer but its diffuser is meh. I was thinking of getting the black orchid diffuser for it. Looks like you can’t buy the curl smith diffuser separately? Also how does the curl smith diffuser compare to the black orchid? The curl smith one looks wider but the black orchid looks deeper (so wouldn’t smash my curls in a wonky way when pixie diffusing). Btw, you should check out and review the hair dryer I got because the level of control and versatility it has is amazing! I want to tell everyone about it! I wish it had those prongs on the back though so you didn’t have to hold it, that is a cool feature of the curl smith dryer. Anyway, it’s the FHI Heat Elite professional series dryer. It’s near Infrared heat, has an ion generator you can turn on and off, has a digital read out of temp so you know exactly what the temp is, has a crazy number of options/combinations for heat and air flow (and the lowest air flow is so gentle I can do pixie without turning it on/off with no problems!), is low EMF radiation, has a locking cool shot button, and it’s even dual voltage! Now if I can just find the perfect diffuser to top it off!
What’s the wattage on the dryer?
Damn my big head would probably love it but my husband gave me a dyson soooo maybe one day when dyson dies 😅
But the shield primer sounds great for Florida since I do go out to the beach and sometimes pool, cant wait to protect my curls!!
🤣 it is nice to cover your whole head at once lol!
Gena- can’t seem to find the hair dryer on uk site; please can you reach out to curlsmith to ask if they plan to release here soon. Thanks so much.
Yes! Will ask 👍🏼
@@GenaMarie - thanks so much. You’re the best. X
I was able to buy this dryer from Sephora for less than a $100. I used my 2500 points to get a $100 off coupon. You definitely want to make a smaller purchase and select the reward offer which then can be used towards future purchases. So if you're a big Sephora shopper like me you can take advantage of that!
Whats your thoughts on the briogeo brush compared to thr behairful brush? I dont own a styling brush and trying to research which of these is best. Would you consider doing a comparison video?😀
Yeah I could do that! I prefer the Briogeo brush now because I like the synthetic bristles over the boar. They feel smoother and less damaging
@@GenaMarie thats good to know! Briogeo is more accessible in new zealand so will be cheaper as i wont have to pay a small fortune for shipping. Would love a comparison when you have time. Thank you!
I don't think I can ever go back to that style of dryer after using the Shark... simply because I have short arms and the Shark is so much easier to hold. I will say, however, that the little kickstand feature on this one is pretty nifty. But the diffuser bowl does not look deep enough. It looks like it would just smash my long hair if I do the scrunch/pixie diffusing.
That's a great point! It is large but luckily lightweight. The Shark is more compact. I want to do a comparison video soon 🙌🏼
I’m torn between buying the curl smith and the Shark. I love how big the diffuser is on the curl smith but the adjustable diffuser on the shark is pretty cool. I struggle with volume I feel like the shark would be better.. ugh don’t know which one to get!
I’m definitely considering doing a full comparison video. I do love the very long prongs on the shark however I like that the curlsmith uses warmer air and not such high heat although I haven’t noticed heat damage from either
@@GenaMarie I just bought the shark after seeing you use it and now I’m wondering if I should keep it or return it for the curlsmith one! I’d love to see a full comparison! Is there a difference in how loud they are? The shark is much louder than the dyson I had previously!
The shark hairdryer gets way to hot even on the lowest setting, I had to return it
I just bought the shark- not used it yet, so can prob return it. Phew.
I love them both! But the fact that this curlsmith one has been drying my hair fast with less heat has me leaning towards it
Does this dryer blow the hair around when putting to your head (while using the diffuser)?
Yeah just a little bit but not enough to where I feel like I have to turn it off in between sections. But you could
Is the diffuser attachment magnetic, snapnon? How sturdy are the attachments?
Good question! They are snap on. They're very sturdy! Mine haven't fallen off
Darn!!!!! I got the Dyson a few months back! 😭
Many people love the Dyson! Also, depending on where you got it you may be able to return if you don't like it
@@GenaMarie Ok! Thank you!
Wow 😀
Nice video mam! ❤️ Need an assistance of your video editing? I'm willing to help you!
I hesitate between :
Curl smith
Laifen Pro
Laifen Swift
Bellissima Diffon Supreme
Dyson
I wish the dryer itself wasn't so long. I've been using a really cheap diffuser because it's the only one that isn't so long that I feel like I have to be Mrs Incredible to hover with it, and I can't justify the price of the Dyson or the Shark!
Do you use the prongs to lift your roots right after you're done plop diffusing, or do you wait until your hair has dried a bit more?
I sort of do some of both. I would say I do more route lifting with a prongs towards the end
Arg!! I just broke down and got the Shark! I do like it but it gets way to hot on low temp/speed. This would be perfect. Rats!
The Shark is an amazing dryer and I still recommend it! I switch around but have been reaching for the Curlsmith one lately because it still dries my hair quick but with less heat
I already recently bought the Shark and still figuring it out. The price is about the same. Downside is that it's heavy, which means I won't likely travel with it.
@@quiltbugj I need to compare the actual weights, but it seems like the Curlmsith is lighter
Deb - can I ask if you’re UK based. I think the shark is different in US vs UK, and just purchased shark but concerned about what you say about high temp. Also do you mean appliance or air flow is too hot? Thanks
How much heat settings is good for damage curly hair??
I would use a medium setting and if possible, just hover
@@GenaMarie thanks a lot ❤️
If it is not broken, then no need to break the bank ladies and gents. Theirs always going to be the new best thing 😑. Mind you the BEST is depending and a decision made differently by everyone.
So true!!
I'm torn between the Shark and this one! HELP!!!
If you want the large size dryer and don't want a dryer that gets hot, get the Curlsmith. If you like the really long prongs and more heat, go with the Shark!
I’m only just realizing I’ve been taking care of my hair wrong so now im tryna undo years of damage 💀
I just got mine. And it’s to flat on inside should be more of a bowl . I’m seriously considering returning it
Maybe I should turn off and on. And pixie diffuse. I’m confused about the plopping…I need to go see if u have video
It’s designed that way purposely. It creates more curl definition and reduces tangling by being flatter
I tried the diffusing where u turn it off section by section. And I got amazing results!! I’m so glad I found your channel it’s been a huge game changer! Thank you so much
$189!😢
Your a great help but is kinda hard to trust your words because you have been sponsored by so many hair companies that you constantly have to advertise them or else you’ll loose them so I truly don’t kn what to believe
I would have made this video whether it was sponsored or not because I would have wanted to try this dryer and review it.
I love testing different brands but I use curlsmith products the most consistently so they would naturally be in videos regardless if it was sponsored. I would never partner with a brand I didn’t genuinely use outside of my content or purchase myself.
