In the quest to get my morning routine perfected, I'm having a hair care crisis.

I've been in a habit of using hot rollers at home on dry hair, but with my new going-to-the-gym-almost-every-morning-before-work routine, I just don't have time for it. I'm trying to dry my hair with the dryers at the gym, but there are too many gals fighting for them and hogging them to guarantee a good blow-out.

I've seen these small blow dryers that look like like half curling iron, half brush. Do they work? Anyone have one? I think they run about 20,000 won... thinking of getting one this weekend.

i used to have one. it just wasn't powerful enough to dry my hair, but my hair is pretty think. i had to dry my hair with a hair dryer first and then use the curler/dryer and most of the time it was too much hassle.
sounds good in theory, but not practical at all. maybe it's just me.

do you just curl the ends under/up or do you make real curls?

i used to use one of those round brush blowdryers in the states...not quite as powerful for drying (took a while)...when i wanted to just curl the ends under

now i have a perm, and it's like the esiest thing to take care of...wash, towel blot, spray some stuff and scrunch, then air dry

dont know if that helped
