Hot Tools TSV

Beauties - I am having trouble finding a thread on today's Hot Tools TSV. If you know of one can you point me to it? If there is none, can people share their experience with this line? I like the concept. Thanks!

It's the only line I've used for decades - curling iron and blower. I always buy on line so not sure of your question.

It's a fab product line that last & last

@Tukey @fthunt

Just ordered after checking out the Hot Tools website and various reviews.

Watched the presentation twice.

Seems fabulous, love the different sizes of attachments.

My naturally wavy hair CAN BE CONTAINED!

Found the price quite reasonable.

I love the Hot Tools line. I have used them for year's and never had an issue.

Thanks - this helps me. I never heard of it but it is encouraging to hear your experiences. I didn't want something like that Dyson Dryer which would be awesome for 2 months and then stop turning on. That happened to 2 people I know. At least this is only $80 compared to what those cost. At 53 this is the longest I have kept my hair but boy is it time consuming! And in January we are back in the office 3 x a week so looking to save time and of course look good!

And if I cut my hair this has attachments that will work with that as well. The Bumble and Bumble products have made my hair look the best it has ever looked so hoping this will bump it up further!

I have the original version of the Hot Tools blow dry brush and love it. However, these tools by their design can be very damaging. I would never use one of these every day. I don’t dry my hair completely with one. I either let it dry naturally or rough dry with a conventional dryer until it’s 80% or so dry, then finish it with the blow dry brush. Also, a good heat protectant is important. My hair is fine and color treated and may be more prone to damage so your mileage may vary.

The Hot Tools line is generally very nice quality. The TSV is a very good price for it. I’m considering an upgrade.

Too many attachments for me. I would only use one, maybe two of them.

ETA - I already have the Revlon One-Step and I love it. The only reason why I would want the TSV would be for the smaller barrel but not for that price.

I know this line is a favorite among professionals. My cuz is a licensed stylist and we go to the professional beauty supply place (you have to have a license to buy). And whenever we need a hair dryer or curling iron etc, she looks at those.

I didn't buy... I don't need all those attachments. I have a similar version-- a cheapie from revlon I bought while traveling in a pinch. I don't use it that often. I just dry my hair and use velcro rollers (remember those?) for volume.

I ordered...silver grey.

They keep touting those Bumble and Bumble heat protectant products. I love that brand but can't do $70 on top of the TSV cost. If anyone knows of a cheaper drugstore option let me know. I'll definitely try the B&B stuff when I am able. Love their products.

It is funny, back in the 1970s we had this Norelco (I think) blow dryer with 4 attachments - a rectangular brush, a fine comb, an Afro pick type comb, and a hollow rectangular attachment. For some reason my Mom said we had to get rid of it. She read something. Either it "caused cancer", or some issue. So what did she do? Sell at a yard sale I guess so someone else could get "cancel". I am 53 and never got cancer...no one in our family did so that was all hooey I guess!

I have been wanting one of these for awhile. I have looked at them at Ulta. I did order this one as I love all of the attachments and the great price.

@Tukey If interested in a spray on heat protectant I use HSI Professional Argon Oil Heat protectant. It's 8 0z. (large) for $17.95. Lasts a very long time.

Re: Hot Tools TSV

SilleeMee — Tue, 23 Nov 2021 16:08:32 GMT

Does anyone know if the TSV has a low-heat setting with a fast-blow speed? ...or is it just one setting with low heat and low speed...?? Hope that made sense...LOL!

Re: Hot Tools TSV

I use a protectant from Big Sexy Hair. There was probably some kind of promotion at Ulta when I bought it.

Thanks SO much.

@SilleeMee I read many reviews on this product. Many said the temperature does not vary enough. It gets too hot, especially fo thin hair.

Re: Hot Tools TSV

SandGirl — Tue, 23 Nov 2021 16:26:03 GMT

I didn't read through all the comments but if you arent' worried about all the attachments, you can get this for under 40.00 at Ulta's Black Friday sale

I ordered it and then quickly cancelled; don't need all those attachments for my short layered bob, fine hair. Now I am using a Hot Tools very lightweight hair dryer and a round Chi brush and that works great. I was hoping to find a tool like this TSV with a smaller round brush (or oval) but I think this one will be too heavy and big to work for my short hairstyle and fine hair.

Right now I do a rough blow dry with a heat protectant in my hair, then blow it dry in sections after I have applied Kenra thickening mousse. I can wash my blow dry brush easily, but what about hair products in this blowdryer/styler attachments?

Also it seemed like it would be heavy to hold as compared to my super lightweight brush and dryer.

Will wait and see how reviews are.
