The Calista product isn't a blow dryer...so comparing it to something that blows hot air doesn't make sense.
I purchased this this to replace a similar type of device (different brand) and this is a great price compared to what I paid for the other one.

What bothers me about her presentation is she keeps saying it doesn't get hot and burn your hair (see, I can touch it and not burn my hands). Have you ever touched inside the bristles (the part that actually touches your hair) OUCH - VERY, VERY HOT on your hair. I find that so disengenuous.

@september. Yes it does because the gadget with the blower is a curling brush that looks just like the Calista but, for a lot less money, has the additional feature of blowing hot air. Damp curls set with warm air last a lot longer.

I have a Conair one that sounds a lot like yours. I love it. I paid around $20 or so and I think you are much better off with what you already have than this Calista tool. These fairly inexpensive dryer-brushes work great and actually dry your hair while giving it body and curl. I love mine and if it ever breaks will buy another.

I use the Perfector every day, I am not looking for curl. All straight hair people have many, many products to help produce curl, the products have been around for decades The Perfector has simplied my life in a matter of minutes I am able to get rid of frizz. It makes my curly frizzy hair become more Human. I am completely grateful for the product, the creator has the similar hair type as mine, curly and frizzy. Wish I would have had the Perfector in my teen years because some people bully us people with frizzy curly hair. Thank-you Marie for making the Perfector, I consider it a blessing!
Straightening products are so hard on hair and this does not damage hair.

@ihbchiefclerk You summed it up very well for me. I'm not trying to dry/curl my hair either. I want a product that gives my roots some volume and smooths my hair. If I want...it can also be used to give it some curl. Most of the time, I want to let my hair air dry, but then I need to do some quick styling on it to make it look nicer. I hope that's what the Perfector will do for me.

Well, if you want the hot air feature....then you buy a product that does that. The Calista is clearly not one of those products.(although...I know they say you can use it to make curls)
As already mentioned...we aren't all buying a styler that gives us a curl. I hate the way curly hair looks on me. I'm looking for volume and smoothing.
