The pros and cons of the viral hair plugs
We at Briefly News asked Lusanda for her expert take on the hair tool combo that has South Africans rushing to the shops.
The team asked what she thinks about the Revlon hair combo that has everyone calling it a plug. She said:
“It is a very clever deal for people who want to style their hair at home. It is affordable and easy to find, which is why it went viral. It makes a professional look much more accessible for ordinary people.”
The team asked if there were any risks to using these types of heated brushes and irons every day. She responded:
“I must warn you about the constant use of hot irons and brushes. High heat can take away the moisture from your hair and cause it to snap. You should never use tools every single day if you want your hair to stay healthy and strong.”
When asked what her top tip for anyone who just bought the set and wants to keep their hair healthy, the salon owner shared:
“Always use a good heat protectant spray first. Also, make sure your hair is at least 80% dry before you start using the heated brush. If you use it on soaking wet hair, you are basically cooking your strands, which may later lead to permanent damage.”
SA appreciates the hot bargains' plug
The clip gained massive views and likes, with the comment section buzzing with happy and excited shoppers. Many viewers thanked the creator for the tip, noting they would be rushing to their local stores. The sale, however, seemed to vary by location. One disappointed viewer noted that she had visited her local Clicks recently and saw no such markdowns.

"I need to go pick up that hairdryer. Thanks for the plug ❤️."
User @Shady asked:
"😳How long is this promotion 😭? Is it still till the end of February?/"
User @ljr595 advised:
"I have the Babyliss one, and the trick is to have hair almost dry before using it, and use heat protectant spray."
User @Tavia added:
"I paid R225 today."
User @Taylor commented:
"I have been using it for three years now, approximately 2-3 times a week 😅. Obviously, I allow it to air-dry a bit and then dry it with the brush. I stopped for a month as the tool broke, and I cried every time I had to use a normal hairdryer 🤣 had to get another one because it was life-changing."
User @The_Venda_Doll said:
"I was at Clicks on Sunday. There was no sale. 😩 ended up buying a cheaper version."
