Ibiza Hair EX5 Extended Cork Round Brush, Extra Large

I wanted to wait until I had the opportunity to use this brush a couple of times - and it really is great. My hair was definitely starting to show the signs of wear and tear after all the processing, highlights, blow drying, straigting and curling - you get the picture. I heard about this brush awhile ago but never hit the go button on it because I never in my life have spent this for a hair brush. I finally did and I don't regret it - I barely have to use my straightening iron anymore - just use it to hit a couple pieces in the front. My hair is super soft and shiny and it lasts all day.A little piece of me wishes I would have went with the Large and not the extra-large but the XL still works perfectly fine. I'll end up spluring on the large sooner or later - if you are thinking about getting this brush - you definitely should!

Excellent brush for styling fine, long hair! I have several Ibiza round brushes in different sizes (for different hair lengths I've had over the years) as well as a paddle brush, and they make my hair shiny and smooth with more body when I blow dry. I noticed other reviewers had issues with the cork handle breaking off of this brush, so that is worrisome, but my other Ibiza brushes have been excellent quality, so I decided to take a chance on this one. So far so good.

I absolutely love this brush. I purchased this brush in July 2014, I have thick long hair and I use it at least 3-4 times a week. It is still doing the same great job! I've purchased other round brushes before and the handle has either broken after a few months, or I had to modify the handle to keep my hair from snagging. NOT WITH THIS ONE! Money well spent. The handle makes it comfortable to use and my hair always comes out so shiny.

I’ve wanted one of these brushes for years and didn’t want to spend the money. I wish I had bought one sooner. Super light weight, cork keeps brush from slipping if you get product on your hand and the bristles handle heat so well. I’ve bought two sizes and love them both.

I've got long long hair. I needed a good brush to flatten it out without letting the ends flip up and out. I wanted boars hair and this one has it. However, I didn't like the price of this one. I bought a cheaper one - and that is what I got - I didn't like the handle; it was to thin and especially so right where you hold it with your fingers. That and the smooth handle didn't offer a good grip. It gave me hand cramps when blowing out my hair. I splurged and bought the Ibiza because of the handle. First thing I noticed when I looked at it was that the Ibiza has twice the bristles of the cheap one. I pulled the Ibiza through my hair and it was incredible - like driving an Audi L series but for your hair. Spend the extra money and get the Ibiza. You won't regret it... the only thing I regret is not buying the Ibiza first.

I purchased this EX5 and also a medium Ibiza and prefer the medium for my medium length layered hair. Both are great brushes, but I'm just learning to master this round brush technique to avoid using a curling wand or iron. It makes a lovely blow out and leaves hair very sleek and smooth and I can create a subtle beachy wave. It's light weight so easier on the arm and hand. It's amazing for bangs too, so sleek and soft and smooth until the next wash and blow dry. Most definitely worth every penny if you are a person that blow dries your hair regularly. Sectioning hair off is crucial as is letting it dry about 75 to 80% before using the brush to finish off the blow dry and style.

I have been looking for a brush to use for styling my fine, thin hair, not to mention that I'm not very good at blow drying my hair with a brush. I usually use a hot air brush, but while on vacation in Europe, the hot air brush stopped working and I had to use the blow dryers in the hotels with a little brush I had and my hair looked so much better. So, once I got home, I started looking for a REAL brush, ordered this one because of the reviews and it works perfectly every time. I love it. It doesn't tangle my hair like most of brushes. It's large, but very light weight.

Best investment ever! I have thick coarse hair and this brush makes all the frizzies go away like magic. Had to flex my muscle a little coz my hair is long but nevertheless it is worth the effort.
