Now this is a really different question for all you Italian travelers. My hairdresser uses a great round,wood handled,brush with a center of vented ceramic and it was made in Italy. She got it at a US trade show and has not seen them since. I swear that my hair has never looked better when dried using it (many times I do it myself there so it is not just her technique)
As I will be in Rome this May I would love to buy one but have no idea where to start looking. Anyone have any ideas?

I'd try Rinascente or Upim but You might do a google search between now and then, especially if there is brand name printed on the brush.

Thanks wanderlust5...will try those stores. Unfortunately there is no brand on the brush...only "made in Italy"

i think carol's looking for a brush with a wood handle?

Starrsville...

thanks so much for the detective work. I have been searching google with no luck and really thought your tip was it but not the same. I have bought a US made brand plastic handle, ceramic, vented brush like the last one on the page you found and it does not do the same job.

I can't believe this brush does what it does....hair keeps the shape after drying and is much smoother and feels like silk.

Oh well will, this give me a project in Rome...won't my husband just love that.

Unless you speak fluent Italian, take a photo of your hairdresser's brush with you to show to shop personnel.

You can also store some photos of your brush on your camera too.

There are a number of websites including this one that list many department stores and specialty shops.
