Much to my surprise/dismay - it burned the hair right off - a small clump is now about 1" long!My hair is highlighted, and I have been swimming fairly regularly - but I always wash/condition my hair afterwards. I wrote to the dryer mfg to complain.Obviously I will stop using the brush - but do you think this is a defective dryer - or just bad luck on my part or what? Luckily I have thick hair, and this doesn't show - but I shudder to think if it had happened right next to my face - agghh!Thanks for any advice/suggestions. ------------- Regards, Sue Replies:
