This is what the three heat settings are for: 320°F for the fine strands that scorch, 392°F for the greys that won't hold a shape, and one in between for everything else — same head, same five minutes. And because heated bristles pass through instead of clamping down, nothing gets crushed and there are no plate marks to hide. No sectioning, no angle to find, no technique to remember. Just the result you used to get for free.
