Transcript

00:00:00.240 Hello beautiful ladies and welcome to today's video. Today we're going to be trying this
00:00:04.920 Therapy Wet or Dry Flat Iron. I've used it once before but I wanted to try it again with
00:00:11.140 you guys and see what kind of results I could get. I found this in Costco actually so I've
00:00:15.980 recently got a Costco membership and I was so excited because I saw this being sold for
00:00:22.580 $50 and apparently normally it's about $180 or something like that which is crazy and I've
00:00:29.700 always wanted the Dyson hair dryer. If you guys saw this whole hullabaloo when it came out it's a
00:00:35.620 hair dryer that also curls your hair and that seemed like such an amazing time saver that I
00:00:40.260 was thinking I would love something like that because I wouldn't have to dry my hair and then
00:00:45.980 curl it. Well this seemed like a really good solution that wasn't $500 right? I could hop right
00:00:52.860 out of the shower dry my hair with this while styling it so I thought that was a really cool
00:00:58.040 idea. So here are the claims. It says here innovative technology that locks in moisture as it
00:01:04.580 straightens the Therapy 365 wet or dry leaves hair softer silkier and smoother than ever before.
00:01:12.040 We'll see. So the one time I used it I actually had really nice results but what I did notice is
00:01:17.120 that it wasn't easy for me to curl my hair on the first run. I would have to usually straighten it
00:01:22.900 to dry it and then curl it. So I wanted to see today if I could make it work with just one swipe
00:01:29.440 curling my hair and drying it at the same time but even if it doesn't do that this seems like a big
00:01:34.700 time saver to me. So let's get started.
00:01:39.940 So the first thing I'm going to do is I'm going to turn on the hair straightener and as soon as you
00:01:46.420 plug it in you get these little blue lights. So it has four settings. It has 430, 390, 360, and 320.
00:01:54.120 I'm going to set mine at 390. Now I know that's really really hot for a lot of people that would
00:01:59.240 be way too hot for their hair. My hair really doesn't curl or hold a curl unless I do it at a
00:02:05.840 higher temperature so I'm going to do it at 390. I have a hair protectant in and I'm just going to
00:02:12.100 separate the top half of my hair. It's been towel dried so that's one of the things that you have
00:02:18.800 to do. You have to make sure that it's towel dried so there's not a lot of extra moisture in your hair.
00:02:22.780 Of course it's still going to be wet but it's not going to be sopping wet.
00:02:33.500 So the iron is hot. I'm going to separate out a small piece of hair
00:02:38.040 hair. And I'm just going to run this through and try and curl it. So I'm going to crimp this.
00:02:49.140 And they do say that if you see any what looks like smoke it's actually steam.
00:02:55.420 So don't be freaked out by it.
00:02:57.460 Oh okay. So we do get a curl. And that is with one swipe. So that's really cool. This is an inch
00:03:13.400 and a half I think. Yes this is an inch and a half. So it's going to give you bigger wider curls. More
00:03:18.940 fluffy curls. Not really tight curls. Which for me it means it's not going to hold a curl as long.
00:03:24.540 Whenever I use a bigger barrel it means that the curls fall out pretty quickly.
00:03:29.160 But my hair holds like that shine and it has that curly bottom which makes it look really
00:03:34.740 just nice and together. So we're going to try again over here. I'm going to
00:03:41.700 twist it and just drag it down slowly.
00:03:54.540 And there we go. Okay well it works. That's exciting. And my hair is dry. So that's really
00:04:01.640 cool. The obviously it's going to be a little bit different working with this because your
00:04:05.980 roots aren't going to get dry in the same way that they would with a hair dryer. You're
00:04:10.260 not drying the hair from the root. So I suppose what you could do is you could go in first with
00:04:16.240 a hair dryer just at the root. And then do the rest of your hair with this wet to dry straightener.
00:04:23.240 Yeah I think this looks really nice. So I'm going to straighten one piece over here just so you guys
00:04:36.680 I'm going to grab a piece that's a little bit wetter because you know when you towel dry your hair
00:04:40.880 some gets drier faster. And I'm going to just show you guys how straight I can get it on one run.
00:04:54.880 Can you hear the crackle? It's just water turning into steam I have been told.
00:05:03.500 Okay. Well that looks pretty straight to me. I, to be fair, I don't straighten my hair very often.
00:05:10.000 I don't really like the way it looks on me. But this looks pretty straight to me.
00:05:14.400 I think it would look better with one more swipe. So let's do one more.
00:05:27.240 Yep. That looks really nice. And it's totally dry.
00:05:31.640 Well that's easy. This might be a shorter video than I anticipated.
00:05:36.680 Now I'm just going to do the rest of my head.
00:05:40.000 Bye.
00:05:42.000 Bye.
00:05:43.000 Bye.
00:05:47.920 Bye.
00:06:06.860 Bye.
00:06:06.880 Bye.
00:06:07.920 So now I'm going to take down the top half of my hair and just a little trick that I
00:06:20.580 always do is I'll take my bottom half of my hair and I will clip that in the back because
00:06:30.180 then I don't get confused about which parts I've already done and I don't like having
00:06:34.760 to feel and touch it out so I just I just remove any ambiguity and then put that that hair
00:06:40.980 just in a little clip in the back and I'll usually start from the back just because it's
00:06:47.780 hard to see and let's just get that out of the way it's working really well actually better
00:06:55.100 than I expected but I think just going slow if you want to curl it that's the main thing
00:07:02.380 like look at that that's so pretty can you see it's like a really pretty curl and the
00:07:13.940 only other thing is that just don't take big clumps these might be even too small you probably
00:07:18.880 do it a little bit more but I'm just doing it because I want my hair to hold better than
00:07:24.720 it would if I didn't take smaller pieces but if you take a big chunk the hair is going to
00:07:30.060 be fine if you're straightening it but if you're trying to curl it then I don't think it would
00:07:34.620 hold as well look at the steam I don't know this entertains me I'm sure other people would be really
00:07:40.620 freaked out by it I kind of like it so pretty like the curl is at the bottom of the hair I will say
00:07:52.720 that but it doesn't bother me looks styled and it means that I don't have to do two steps in the
00:07:59.900 morning I'm good with it if you're somebody who wants like big voluminous curls right at the top
00:08:05.780 of the right at the top of the hair this may not be the best fit for you but I am very happy with how
00:08:13.820 this looks
00:08:43.820 so

00:10:11.820 you
00:10:13.820 you
00:10:15.820 you
00:10:16.820 definitely have to go in with a hair dryer you can use this right at the root
00:10:22.820 and just give yourself a little bit of lift and also dry the hair my final thoughts on this therapy
00:10:29.820 wet or dry hair styler is that I like it I think it's really useful it gets the job done
00:10:34.820 it makes your hair look really styled and it dries it it's perfect for me for my lifestyle
00:10:40.820 I really like it if you like a bigger curl if you like a bigger wave may not be perfect
00:10:44.820 for you if you don't mind rough drying your hair and then styling it may not be perfect for you
00:10:49.820 really nice for me so I hope you guys enjoyed today's video please subscribe to my channel and
