I see posts talking about good BIFL items but I don’t hear much about the other side of products that are bad or products you bought but don’t even use.

      None, sorry, I’ve never tried one. It does look marginally better though from what I’ve seen. I think the Dysons downfall is ironically one of its selling points - it doesn’t get hot enough. It’s hot enough to dry your hair without damage, but not enough to make it hold a curl. And apparently the shark one does use more heat. So I’d say give it a go! If your friend is looking for something to curl with I’d highly recommend getting a Parlux hairdryer to get a good smooth blow dry and then a Remington straightener like the Shine Therapy advanced. My last set of Remington straighteners lasted about 15 years. I got new ones last year and they’re the same excellent quality. I’ve tried all sorts of more expensive ones and those are just as good if not better. I can get a full head of lovely bouncy curls that lasts until I next wash my hair with very minimal heat damage. None if I use a good heat protectant (shout out to the tres emme one) You can seriously achieve any style with those 2 tools. Straight and smooth, beachy waves, curls, bouncy blow out. No need for faddy trendy products.
