Need Ideas for a Good Hairdryer

My hair stylist told me that the hair dryer makes the difference in the way it drys/straightens hair. I was having problems with my thick coarse hair looking not so soft. She suggest I go to Sally Beauty Supply and invest in a good hair dryer that is ceramic with mulitple temp/speed levels.

I got one that I love! My hair is smooth and straight after blow drying. I also invested in a $100 ceramic flat iron that I use with the hair dryer and I don't ahve problems with split end or thick icky looking hair.

Good luck!

I have naturally curly, thick, coarse hair and use the Conair with the brush attachment to dry my hair before straightening. I love the ceramic straightener by CHI. My girls loved mine so much they each bought one as well. You can buy them at JCP with certain beauty salon coupons so you really get a great price too!

Hi,

I have similar hair issues and I use the Conair Infiniti Professional Tourmaline Ionic. Its specs are: 1875 watts, 3 heat and 2 speed settings, cool shot button, and optional diffuser attachment. Pros: high heat, powerful motor, removable dust filter. Cons: long cord that does not wind up into the base, and slightly heavy. I bought mine at Sally's Beauty Supply for $50, but it's available on-line right now at drugstore.com for $35.

I also second the other suggestions for a flat iron. I purchased the Jilbere tourmaline series from Sally's for $60. It's excellent for a quick touch up on my really stubborn sections of hair.

Good luck in your search for a new hairdryer!

Consumer Reports did a review of hair dryers in Jan 2009. I just got a new one adn went with a Remington that I got at Target. It was one of their recommended models. Have you tried a hair straightener?
