IT WORKS!

Yeah, I tried it this morning (btw; Happy Resurrection Sunday!) and it worked well.  Only about 3 times did I have to grap the sisscors for spots it missed.  But I'm impressed with the results.  It did not cut length, just small hairs to make it look nice and healthy! 

Downside, it took me an hour!  Maybe I just have a big head and that's why!

Well Ashley, if you use it again in the near future, let me know what you think of it.

My hair is type 3b/3c, and it worked for me.

I wonder how she used it. It doesn't work on curl hair very well. It has to be straight, pressed, flat ironed or blown out.

My best friend has it and she hates it.  She says it doesn't work and she has type 2/3 hair type.

Yeah, it trims all the hairs.

 

Let us know Vanity.

(Tip: The key to it is combing out a small section right before you put it in the teeth of the machine. Then it goes through smoothly, with no complication or unnecessary breakage. It is harder on curly hair... to get it to go through. That has been my experience. I always did it on my straight hair.)

I think it trims the hair by cutting the split ends.  It doesn't go after split ends per-se, but it trims a 1/4 off the ends

wow, such a tiny amount!   I'm going to run back to Walgreens today and check it out.  I'll let you know what I discover

But I won't be using it until Easter Weekend, the first time I'm going to straighten my hair in a month, with my new tourmaline and ceramic flat irons

Yeah, I guess. It only cuts about this much off each time:

(this much)-> -

So I guess you should only use it when necessary as to not cut hair that isn't broken.

It doesn't distinguish between splits and regular hairs, long or short. It takes about 2 centimeters off each hair that pops up within it. There's a bump inside that makes the ends pop up to get cut. It's kinda like when you trim the splits by putting your finger under the hair, and loop it in  U to get the ends to pop up. It can get the hairs all at any length as long as you take small enough sections into the machine and drag it to the very end of your hair. It gets the long and the shorter hairs that way. You could stop in the middle if you only wanted to get the shorter hairs though. 

I used it to dust my hair every month.

Let us know how it works foryou Vanity...I haven't really heard any updates about this particular product.  Hopefully, they have made some improvements.

So Pheonix does it get all the split ends or does it take off extra hair that just happen to be shorter than the other strands? Do you still have to do the search and destroy method?

I don't remember how much I paid for it, but I got it at Walgreens. ("At least they will take it back if I don't like it" - that was my thought when buying it)

Wow, you are really inspiring me to get one?  I want to keep my ends trimmed, but why pay others, when I can do it myself. 

where did you get yours, how much did you pay?
