Anyone else have a bazillion hair tools and products, but literally just wash and air-dry their hair every time? Omg I literally gasped when you took the towel off and I saw your wavy roots. It’s absolutely gorgeous! I would kill for hair like that
It looks lovely and lots of people say it’s worth it, but to spend that amount of money on anything to me is outrageous!! That could be a deposit on a car for me 🤣
I literally gasped when you took the towel off, your natural waves look so pretty! Would love to see you do a vid where you try the curly girl method for a bit!
your hairs naturally wavy!! 😯😍 you should get some curling cream, put it on your hair after your bath, and dry your hair with a diffuser and put some mousse through it you could have literal curls! i would love to see it!
I might try it but last time I did this is was so uneven because my roots are pretty healthy and the ends are dead, so the ends were barely wavy but the top was 😂
@@sophdoeslife you need some intensive treatment for your ends (other than the alternative cutting them off!) i recommend the OGX Renewing+ Argan Oil of Morocco Extra Penetrating Oil (it healed my ends) and apply to the ends of your hair after every wash using about a 50p sized amount in the palm of your hands and apply that way! (i’d say when it’s about 80% dry) and also cutting into your ends in an upward motion now and again makes a difference! just some advice if you wanted to properly go ahead with it lol 😊
I have naturally curly hair like soph don’t use anything with sulphur in it it drops the natural curl out, my ends are dead so I have to “ plop” my hair for an hour or so then diffuse it on low heat low speed 🥰
The dyson side looks like you've just been at a hairdressers. The babyliss side looks like you recreated the look at home. Not saying it's bad but the dyson side just looks more expensive (as it should for that price😂😂).
I’ve had a Babylis air styler for 10 years no joke. My Nan bought it for me when I was a teenager and it makes drying and styling your hair so much easier. It’s just the one that only has the round brush, I recently brought the larger size one and it’s still brilliant. It just gives you the bouncy blow dry look really easily? And I mean it’s lasted 10 years of abuse at £30 I can’t complain 😅
I’m a hairdresser and I hate those curlers/curling brushes that blow hot air out in all different directions, it makes me cringe! when you wrap your hair around it and switch on the air, the hot air blows out in all directions against your hair, meaning it’ll be blasting the cuticles on your hair in all different directions which can make it fuzzy and over time damage your hair. If you notice when hairdressers are blow drying someone’s hair, they’ll always point the hairdryer down against the hair, or in whichever direction the hair is coming away from your head, because that smoothes your cuticle down and helps keep your hair shiny and healthy. That’s why the dyson air curler is so good in the way that it works, because it only blows air in the same direction of the cuticle!
@@sophdoeslife My hair is naturally curly too and used to be like that then I started using Lush Revive hair moisturiser and it made it super soft so I would definitely recommend it!
I have the Babyliss and have found that the curling attachment doesn't give me the curls I want, but the barrel brush and the smoothing brush is AMAZING. Well worth the £36 I paid
I never comment on people's videos but I had to say what a down to earth, lovely person you are, you don't try to be anyone your not and its so refreshing to see a RU-vid where the fame hasn't gone to their head. You're a joy to watch and I enjoy all your videos xxx
I use smaller sections with the Airwrap. To get a more “playful” effect, after curling all of my hair I go back in for some small sections to curl closer to the top of my head. That way, it creates more volume I think. After curling half of my hair, I spray with some hairspray. Then it stays for I think 6 hours and then my curls are less big. I think it’s actually (feel weird to say it haha) worth the price 🤭 you get so many good attachments. I got mine about 2 weeks ago and I’m so in love ☺️
yes i love mine but the curling does need pin clipping and for me, it needs to be used of very wet hair (my hair is thin so it does pick up) in order for it to stay. i’ve had mine since 2019 christmas and it is a beauty, and my sister kept stealing it so now she has one too ahah 💙
Moisture in the air breaks the bonds that hold the hair's shape once it's styled, hence why hair's prone to going flat and frizzy when it's damp outside. You'd probably get that result using any tool, which is why us hairdressers always recommend using anti-humidity haircare after a blowdry to make it last a lot longer :)
Watching this while on my way to work! Thank you for still making content in such a difficult time, it really helps me relax and unwind. I work in a special educational needs school so all our students are in still, we’re having rapid tests every week (although this week my bubble are having it everyday bc we had two kids with symptoms). It’s a really stressful time so thank you!
I understand very well, I work in mental health bought this thing from boots, and hopefully I'll be pleased when I use it. As ladies we need to relax and have our times. Deffo deserve
I’ve heard a few people say the curls drop out fairly soon with the air wrap but if you use a styling product with some hold (my friend recommends Moroccan Oil mousse) they stay in really well (a few days!) love the video too xx
I feel like you had been so used to using the Dyson one that side looked better, but if you had been using the dupe for a few months and then the Dyson one for the first time then the dupe would have looked better. But it was still a great and honest review xxx
If you are unsure buy it from somewhere like qvc and at a time they have easy payments, less outlay and a money back guarantee, that’s how I did it and I kept it because I loved it 😀
The revlon blow dry brush has changed my life! It takes me 10 mins to blow dry & straighten my hair now instead of almost an hour 🙏🏼 I also got the Chi spin n curl & it makes my curls last all day. Pure magic those 2 ✨
Dyson does look better but not quite TEN times better. Plus it’d be interesting to see the results of you pinning up the Babyliss. BTW I had similar issue with curls MANY years ago when I got a perm, I was told by the stylist it was because my Chinese hair was too straight to hold a curl. Then I went to a more expensive salon for a birthday treat and the stylist told me it was because my hair didn’t have any layers so she cut some in for me and it was like I’d just had a fresh perm despite a gap of a few months in between! So yeah, try getting a few layers added in and I reckon you’d get better wave results without so much hassle. X
I love the Dyson airwrap, I got one for Christmas which I was so shocked at, I couldn't believe it. I just love the glam look it gives, I've never found another curling tool that give as nice a finish xxx
I really want an airwrap now 😭😭 i love having my hair curly but cuz i have really thick hair it's such a chore to curl and been trying to tell myself i can't justify the price tag but you made it look so quick and easy!
Both sides looks great but personally I think the Dyson side looks amazing after you release the clips and give the hair a ruffle! It’s such a shame that Dyson products (hair) is so expensive. It’s just not an affordable amount for most people - if it was cheaper they would sell much more. Regardless Sophie looks beautiful 😊
I am absolutely obsessed with my Dyson. Other curlers do a lovely job but the dyson gives such a shine and bounce that nothing else seems to compete with! (Even looking at your hair when you’ve been out in the damp, it’s still smooth and glossy once you’ve brushed it out on the dyson side!) 😍😍
I have just received the Dyson airwrap for Christmas and it is the best thing I have ever used, as I have thick hair it used to take me sooooo long using a normal curler, however with the Dyson it takes a fraction of the time, love your videos xxx
My friend just got the Dyson air wrap and we curled her hair with yesterday it works awesome but I wouldn’t buy it full price I would wait for it to go on sale because I wouldn’t pay 500 for a hair tool
I love my dyson, completely worth the cost for me. I find that my dyson has really helped me like my natural hair texture a lot more. My hair is also wavy, slightly more wavy than yours and I enjoys that throughout the day the style relaxes into a mix of a pretty style with my natural hair texture. I don’t know if that makes sense but since getting the tool in August I’ve used it more than I normally would use a heat tool and my hair is in better condition so I love it! Really nice to see the comparison, I might look into getting the babyliss one for my sister after seeing this ☺️
I have the Dyson and always ended up using my straighteners for my front parts I never knew how to use it properly so thank you for the tutorial! I will now have to buy the long barrels though. Your natural hair is amazing ❤️❤️
12:20 Soph: “I know I’m not the only one out there that forgets to take all the hair out their hairbrush.” Looks over at my brush😳 I know I should probably clean it... but that can wait till tomorrow😂😂
Air wrap is definitely on my Christmas list. My hairdresser recently starting using one and as someone that has thick, course hair-the difference is insane my hair feel so much softer.
The two different brush attachments for the dyson is for different hair types. One for thinner hair the other for thicker hair. To avoid kinky hair I dry my roots with the hair dryer, go through my mid lengths with the straight brush then I use the barrel one to smooth everything out and I’m telling you my hair! It’s silky smooth
Hello soph I'm using airwrap long barrel to keep your curls you only need one hair product and thats john frieda dream curl styling spray ( it has anti heat damage product in it aswell) nothing would kept my curls till I find this gem at boots . BTW if you hold airwrap upside down and roll your hair around the barrel you get wavy beach hair aswell . Its actually the right way to make wavy hair with curling iron or airwrap which is wrap it by hand starting from root to get wave instead of curl 🥰
I have the dyson one and I sooooo pleased with it, I no longer straighten my hair, since the dyson hair warp gives me a blow dry “I just came out of the hair salon” kind of look. And it doesn’t fry my hair which for me was the whole point of buying it. After watching so many review I bough it last year as a self gift. And it’s my best purchase yet. It’s worth every penny. In general terms dyson=quality.
I've recently brought my Dyson Airwrap and LOVE it! I managed to keep my 'blow dry' look for 3-4 days, but my hair is naturally wavy, so maybe it just holds! I do however use L'Oréal pli spray which is amazing at holding curlsn
I got the babyish after having a baby so I could speed up by drying and smoothing in one. Definitely brilliant for £35. I blast with the weird hairdryer bit then use the brush and its dries from soaking wet pretty quickly.
ive loved your recent consistency of uploading, especially because it doesn’t feel forced in any way and it seems like you really enjoy it 🥰🥰 thank u for bringing me joy through your videos, this was just what I needed after a not-so-good mental health day 💛
@@kirsty26589 hey! They do, I use loreal curl styling tonic and a Schwartzkoph heat protector before, then elnett hairspray after 😁 I use Soph’s method of pinning her curls until they’re cool too😁
@@emmajanedriver7201 Brill, thank u. I’ll give those products a go. I need to buy some clips actually. Are u using the same ones as Soph or some similar? x
I actually prefer the final look of the Babyliss side but I use as minimal heat on my hair as possible these days after years of damage through straightening my hair so much! Usually I don't straighten/curl/style my hair unless I'm going out somewhere or doing something and obviously at the minute that's not happening 🙈😂
I think over time, the cheaper one might cause heat damage after a while. I have noticed this year how gorgeous and healthy your hair has looked! As for sweets, I love them as well. My husband and I are empty nesters, and we have started buying a slice of cake each on the weekends. That way we get our sweet "fix" but don't have an entire cake sitting around to temp us!!
You’re probably right! Thanks so much, it definitely feels healthier than it used to 😊 and that is a much better idea.. I made a cake the other day and the two of us finished it off in 2 days!! 😂
New Look have launched a bunch of lipsticks, lip liners, brushes and stuff called Bloom & Luna. I really wanted to buy some of it but they don’t give very much photos so I would love if you could test it out. Love ur vids xxx
The Dyson side looks way better (smoother, voluminous, glam) and kept the curls longer. I pin my curls up too and spray with hairspray afterwards. That seems to help. Yes it’s waaaay more expensive, but I love my Dyson Airwrap. It’s easier, healthier and I won’t burn myself like I normally do with straighteners and curling irons. That Babyliss scares me with that heat.
The dyson side definitely looks smoother and when you’d just used the brush to smooth it on a glance it looks the same but the dyson side has more volume I think I’d rather pay more for the dyson! My hair is getting damaged from curling and straightening!
Soph, next time you try a dupe maybe it would be easier to use the product you already know with your less using hand, that way you can give a fair shot to the dupe. Love you! X
Literally wish I had a friend like you soph! I have no friends because my anxitey and I have so much in common with you I'm glad to see videos like this I feel like I'm hanging out with a friend and it feels nice expecially in a day like we are in. Lockdowns suck so much :(,
I think the curls look slightly different on either side because the dyson wraps the hair round the barrel flush and flatly, whereas you twisted the hair as you wrapped it round the babylis barrel, giving it more of a looser wave. It looks gorgeous either way xx
