I genuinely love this paddle brush from Osensia! I've grown my hair out and the only drudgery is drying it. I've been told I have a lot of hair and nothing proves it more than the energy it takes to dry it. My daughter bought the paddle brush for me for my birthday and it definitely makes short work of my hair routine. My hair is also curly and when I want to dry it straight the paddle brush cuts the work in half. I can either dry it the night before and flat iron in the morning or do all in one day. It saves my wrist, because I used to use a round brush and it is hard on my tendon to do this now. A win win. Happy Birthday to me!
