I fully understand the hype.
This key in of bodacious bombshell hair is having a moment.

Its why Ive resigned myself to rocking slightly wonkyair-dried hair until these thermal brushes popped up on my FYP.
Keep reading below for my honest review of the hot tool.
The brush heats up to 356 degrees Fahrenheit all while the heat-resistant handle stays cool.
The round brush is covered in 0.5-inch nylon bristles that make it easy to smooth and style your strands.
That way, the tool will glide through your strands without getting tangled.
Slide the on button up once to use regular heat or twice to use the ionizer.
Place the tool on a flat, heat-resistant surface like your bathroom counter to heat up.
A little red light will stay on the whole time its on.
Once the brush is hot, grab a piece of hair about the width of the barrel.
Hold it in place for a few seconds until you see a curl starting to form.
To release the curl, slowly spin the brush as you bring it down length of your hair.
To create a true bombshell look, its recommended to curl your hair away from your face.
(If you arent picturing the process, there are dozens oftutorials on TikTok.)
Its why I was a little nervous as the Blowout Babe sat warming on my bathroom counter.
In fact, it couldnt have been easier to use.
The bristles untangled any leftover knots while the warmth of the barrel smoothed away frizz.
Before I got started my air-dried hair was wavy, slightly frizzy, and a little bit flat.
After using the thermal brush, it had way more bounce and movement.
The whole process took about 20 minutes, which wasnt that bad of an investment for the babelicious pay-off.
The Verdict
One of the little features I appreciate most is the swivel cord.
I was also so impressed by the actual curl.
Now I fully understand the thermal brush hype.
Not only is this option from Amika easy to use, but its also super effective.
