The BondiBoost Blowout Brush Will Blow You Away, If It Lasts
In the months I've been testing blowout brushes, one model in particular has been on my must-try list after seeing it touted online over and over: the BondiBoost Blowout Brush. BondiBoost makes a few different hair tools, including an aloe-infused hair straightener and the viral Infrared Bounce Brush ($98) which is designed for dry hair (more on that below), but I was itching to get my hairs on BondiBoost's blow-out brush to see how it compared to the likes of Revlon, Drybar, and T3.
While the BondiBoost Blowout Brush has one of the lower price points, retailing for $70, it gave me shockingly similar results to the more expensive Drybar Double Shot ($155). The BondiBoost left my hair with a nice amount of volume at the roots, plus some smooth, slightly curled ends evocative of a professional blowout. It's been an impressive experience, especially for a brush that's still on the affordable end of the scale.
It felt too good to be true—and it was. While the BondiBoost Blowout Brush works well, the problem is that it might not always keep working. An alarming number of online reviewers on both Amazon and BondiBoost's own website have reported it breaking down after just a few months. BondiBoost's PR team didn't comment on why this could be happening, but confirmed they do have a 30-day warranty—much less than other competitors, and outside the window in which these complaints saw breakage.
It makes purchasing this brush a gamble, and raises the question: Would you rather risk needing to buy this brush multiple times, or invest in a more expensive brush from the beginning? Power Check

The BondiBoost Blowout Brush has a pretty standard set of features. It comes in both a 75-mm oval version ($70) and 51-mm round brush ($70). I tested the oval version, though the smaller version has a detachable head so that you can use the handle of the brush as a targeted blow dryer before styling your hair with the brush attachment, likely since the brush is so much smaller.
The BondiBoost Blowout Brush has a nice temperature range, going from 93 degrees Fahrenheit on the cool setting to 165 and 194 degrees for the two heat settings. These are significantly lower than some of the competition—the Revlon One-Step Plus (7/10, WIRED Recommends) goes up to 240 degrees, while the T3 AireBrush has a similar low-heat setting of 170 degrees but goes up to 213 degrees.
I have fine, wavy hair, so the lower heat appeals to me, since my hair doesn't require higher heat to tame it. My hair also skews frizzy on its own, so I tend to reach for the lower heats and air levels to try to keep that frizz tamed. Folks with coarse, thicker hair might prefer a brush with higher heat levels, like the T3 or Revlon. Results vs. Investment

I'll say it time and time again: I was really happy with my hair results with the BondiBoost Blowout Brush. It gave me a nice mix of volume throughout my hair without making my ends look unfinished, and it didn't get so hot that I had to worry about my hair feeling fried.

Engineering the Perfect Shower Squeegee: The Story Behind dancemoon JustHang Squeegee
NEW YORK, June 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- dancemoon, the trailblazer in home cleaning innovation, proudly introduced its first-ever bathroom cleaning tool: the JustHang Squeegee. Designed for effortless use and stylish storage, the product officially launched worldwide on June 3 via dancemoon's website and Amazon, debuting at a special launch price of $19.99. It has been well-received on social media for its outstanding performance and uniquely innovative built-in hook, and has continued to gain traction on Amazon and the official website since its initial launch. What sets the JustHang Squeegee apart is the thoughtful design, inspired by the simple and universal natural habit of hanging things up after use. Through rounds of real-life testing and countless small tweaks, the dancemoon team turned this everyday habit into a clean, minimalist solution that blends form and function. And behind this seemingly simple tool is a deliberate design process worth sharing. How It's Made: Integrated Molded Structure: The built-in hook of JustHang Squeegee isn't a traditional after-assembly attachment. Instead, it is molded by one-piece injection molding. This process reduces breakage risk at joints, maintains minimalist lines and structural stability, prevents dirt buildup and avoids discoloration over time. The handle uses glass fiber reinforced PA66 and the scraper blade is made of hardened 45 steel, offering excellent strength and heat resistance, enabling JustHang Squeegee to withstand up to 75kg pressure without breaking. Size and Angle Validation: Based on user habit research, dancemoon designers analyzed common hanging points and user behaviors in the bathroom. Through multiple prototype tests and hanging simulations, the size and angle of the built-in hook were finely adjusted to ensure that it can be firmly fixed in places such as towel bars, glass doors and countertops, and perfectly fit the user's natural "use and hang" action. Premium Flexible Silicone: Made from high-elasticity 50 Shore A silicone, this material offers an ideal balance of flexibility and structural strength. After extensive durability testing, the dancemoon design team selected this specific hardness for its outstanding performance in wet and slippery environments, resisting deformation and cracking even with prolonged use. The result is a smoother, more efficient water-wiping experience and a significantly longer lifespan compared to traditional squeegees. Why JustHang Squeegee? Convenience: Effortless to hang anywhere even with wet hands. Versatility: Designed to fit seamlessly into various home settings, offering clean, clutter-free storage. Durability: One-piece molded construction minimizes breakage and lasts longer than traditional scrapers. To place an order, please visit dancemoon's Amazon store and Shopify.

The 2025 MacBook Air Hits Its Lowest Price Ever, Amazon Is Pulling Out All the Stops on Apple
Apple doesn't typically offer huge discounts on its latest products, and fans have a challenge getting real deals. While Black Friday and Prime Day are being hyped as the best times to buy, biggest discounts can come out of nowhere – especially on online retailers like Amazon. Now, the brand new 2025 MacBook Air 13-inch with the M4 chip and 256GB storage is available at an all-time low price of just $849, which is a 15% discount from the list price of $999. This is a one-time opportunity, considering that the laptop was launched only in March and is already flying off the shelves in most regions. See at Amazon Your Favorite Laptop in 2025 The 2025 MacBook Air is powered by the newest Apple M4 chip, which features a 10-core CPU (with 4 performance cores and 6 efficiency cores) and a high-speed GPU, for effortless multitasking, fast app launching and smooth graphics for everything. The 16GB of unified memory ensures even demanding tasks remain responsive, and the 256GB SSD provides fast storage for your most important files and projects. Apple's latest laptop is also made for Apple Intelligence, which is a personal intelligence service that helps the user write, communicate, and get things done very easily. Featuring advanced privacy protection, Apple Intelligence keeps your information secure and does not even let Apple access it. This level of privacy is a big advantage if you like to maintain confidentiality and have peace of mind. Another selling point is the battery life – with up to 18 hours on one charge. What's more, the 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display is a visual treat with 1 billion colors, deep contrast, precise detail, and sharp text. The MacBook Air also sets the pace in connectivity and convenience: It features two Thunderbolt 4 ports for quick data transfer and external display support, a MagSafe charging port for quick and safe charging, a headphone jack, Wi-Fi 6E for ultra-speedy wireless connectivity, and Bluetooth 5.3. The laptop supports up to two external displays (it doesn't have to be Apple own monitors) which makes it a great choice for home and office productivity environments. Don't hesitate: these sales tend to sell out quickly. See at Amazon
