How the Conair InfinitiPRO compares
Conair InfinitiPRO vs Revlon One-Step
These two do different jobs. The Conair is a hand-held dryer with a diffuser and a concentrator, and the Revlon One-Step Volumizer is a hot air brush that dries and styles in one pass Revlon.
Revlon says the oval brush smooths hair while the round edges build volume at the root. Conair sells styling control through separate attachments instead, so you choose a brush of your own.

3 years, limited
Remington puts a micro-conditioner in the grill that releases onto the hair as you dry. Conair works on frizz with ions and full spectrum infrared heat instead.
Does the Conair InfinitiPRO reduce frizz?
Yes. Conair says the ionizing function makes a cloud of negative ions that help reduce frizz by up to 75%, next to dryers with natural ion generation manual.
Conair lists three more results for those ions. They neutralize the positive charge on flyaway hair, they get rid of static electricity, and they add shine manual.
The heat works on frizz as well. Conair describes its ceramic technology as full spectrum infrared heat that dries hair molecules inside and out, which it says keeps heat damage down manual.

Tip
Conair says to start at a lower setting and work up, rather than reaching for high heat first.
What the diffuser and the concentrator do
The dryer ships with both attachments manual. Each one shapes the air in a different way.
Use the snap-on concentrator when you want pinpoint airflow, for example on a straight finish. Conair says to work section by section with a round brush about 2 inches across, holding each section taut manual.
Use the diffuser for waves and curls. Conair's guide also makes tousled waves by scrunching hair at the roots between your fingertips while you dry manual.
Is it safe to use in the bathroom?
Conair says to install a GFCI outlet if you must use a hair dryer in the bathroom manual. The US National Electrical Code requires GFCIs in the bathrooms, garages and outdoor outlets of all new homes.
The guide is firm on water. Never use the dryer while bathing or in the shower, and never store it where it can fall into a tub or sink manual. If it does fall in water, unplug it first and do not reach into the water.
How to set up and use it
Plug the dryer in and press the TEST button on the plug. The dryer stops, you hear a click, and the RESET button pops out.
Unplug the dryer, press RESET back in, and plug it into the outlet again. The ALCI is now working.
Shampoo and condition your hair, rinse it well, then towel-dry it to take out the extra water.
Snap on the concentrator for a straight finish, or the diffuser for waves and curls.
Start at a lower setting. Direct hot air through one section of hair at a time, with your styling brush.
Move the dryer steadily across each section so the air passes through the hair. Aim at the hair, not the scalp.
Keep the air intake vents clear of hair while you dry.
Keep the dryer moving. Do not hold the heat on one section for a long time.
For curls and waves, dry almost fully on a warmer setting, then press the cold shot button to lock the style in.
For extra volume, Conair says to turn your head upside down while drying and aim the air at the roots manual. Toss your head back and brush the hair into place once it is dry.
