This Thermal Brush Gives Me a Salon-Worthy Blowout in Seconds—And It’s Only $30

As a teenager I was scrunching my hair. As a 20-something I was straightening it. And every other year, for nearly a decade, I was battling problematic bangs. But life is different today. I’m a new mom and a corporate girlie with a never-ending to-do list. Translation: What I don’t have is a ton of free time. Everything showers are considered a luxury, and I probably overdo the dry shampoo. But when I am bothered to style my hair, the Wavytalk Thermal Brush does the most for the least. It’s only $32 on Amazon, but creates a look that competes with the spendiest salon blowouts.

I discovered this holy grail on my FYP, and no, this isn’t the first time I’ve fallen victim to a sponsored social media post. I’ve added everything from cortado glasses to ballet flats to my cart mid-scroll. But this is the first time an impulse buy has exceeded my expectations. I wasn’t prepared for how silky and bouncy my hair would be in just a matter of seconds. It normally takes a few attempts before I can master a new styling tool, but this has proved to be effortless. Read on for my full review of the Wavytalk Thermal Brush, which seriously leveled up my hair care routine.

Everything to Know About the Wavytalk Thermal Brush

What it is

Wavytalk is totally that girl when it comes to reliable, affordable hair tools. Some of their best-sellers include professional-grade hair dryers, curling irons, and straighteners (and even a 5-in-1 interchangeable option), but their thermal brushes have gone internet viral, with over one million sold. This heated round brush, featuring two temperature settings and a detachable brush head, is available on Amazon for $32. Sales happen regularly (I originally purchased my thermal brush for less than $30!). There is also a newer model, Blowout Boost, which features tourmaline ceramic and five temperature settings.

Product features

• 2 temperature settings (302°F and 356°F)
• 1.5 inch ceramic barrel
• Tangle-free bristles
• Travel-friendly detachable brush head + dual voltage
• Black and rose gold color options
• A velvet pouch and 2 large clips

It only takes thirty seconds for the brush to heat up thanks to its cutting-edge technology. The lowest heat setting is ideal for thin, damaged, or color-treated hair, while the highest setting is best suited for thicker, coarse hair types. This thermal brush doesn’t blow air—it’s designed to be used on dry hair only. I like to let my hair air dry before styling it to protect it from extra heat damage.

How to use

Once your hair is fully dry (literally every strand), liberally apply your heat protectant of choice and select your preferred temperature setting. Working in small sections and starting at the roots, vertically wrap your hair around the brush. Twist and glide the brush from root to tip in one smooth motion (this is when binge-watching TikTok tutorials pays off). Pull it straight through for a sleek style, or for bouncier curls, roll the ends under and release. Apply a light-hold hairspray or a texturizing cream to extend the life of your look, and end with a dramatic hair flip.

Wavytalk Thermal Brush Review: Does It Live Up to the Hype?

I can confirm that all those suspiciously-impressive GRWM videos and before and after photos are real, because I’ve achieved the same salon-worthy results.

While there are a variety of thermal brushes on the market, I prefer this version from Wavytalk for its simplicity and ease of use. There’s no need to overcomplicate my morning routine with additional attachments or settings when the final look is this good. Whether I’m opting for defined curls or a natural finish, my Wavytalk brush boosts volume and shine within seconds. And the look lasts for days. It’s official: I’ve replaced all the other styling tools that are tangled together in my bathroom cabinet, because this is all I need.
