One hand instead of two · review
The oval one-step brush, in the version that adds a sectioning comb. Revlon states tourmaline ionic technology, a ceramic coating for even heat, and that it dries and volumizes in one pass.
Where it leaves us Revlon's oval brush with a sectioning comb added, and no wattage published on a shelf where every other brush states one.
The oval Revlon brush, in the version supplied with a comb for sectioning. It is a two-in-one: the airflow of a dryer and the head of a styling brush, intended by Revlon for mid-length to long hair.
The oval shape is the point. A flat face against the length and rounded ends at the root means one stroke does what a dryer and a round brush do in two hands.
What is missing from the listing is the numbers. No wattage, no heat settings, no weight. Revlon publishes technology names — tourmaline ionic, ceramic coating — and two percentage claims whose baseline is not given. Those fields stay empty here rather than being filled with figures from a different model in the same range.
Which places this brush last on a shelf of ten, and the reason is worth stating plainly. It is the only one of the ten that publishes no wattage at all: the three other European brushes give a thousand, a thousand and twelve hundred watts, and the $30 Revlon kit on this same shelf — a different reference — states twelve hundred. No heat settings, no weight either. The oval head is a real design argument and the sectioning comb is a genuine extra. But every figure a buyer would compare is absent, and so is the price, since none of the four European brushes here has a listing on amazon.com. The Remington AS8811, BaByliss AS122E and Rowenta CF9540 are the other three on the hot air brushes shelf, and getting volume at the roots explains where to start the pass.

An oval head has a flat face and rounded ends, so it smooths length and lifts at the root in the same pass; a round barrel is made for turning a curl. They are different tools for different finishes, and Revlon's is the oval kind.
Revlon publishes 30% less frizz and 36% less breakage. Neither has a stated baseline on the listing — less than what is not said. They are reported here as the manufacturer's own figures, which is the most that can honestly be done with them.
