 A better hair dryer October 29, 2009

My first "expensive" hair dryer. It really does dry faster, leaves my hair in better shape, and is amazingly quiet.

Karen J. Farnell (Royal Oak, MI USA)
My hairdresser reccommended this dryer to me and it is good. I have thick, coarse hair and it gets the job done a bit quicker than my old wall mounted Conair, which rocked because of it's light weight and convenient location. On the downside it is a bit heavy and the switches are right where your fingers go on the handle.
best blowdryer I've ever used August 26, 2009
Lori Faith (Los Angeles)
This is the best blowdryer I've ever owned! It's super powerful and it gets really hot, which is perfect for my type of hair.
My hair looks great when the weather's dry, but as soon as there's humidity, my hair gets spongy and wavy frizzy.
This dryer straightens my hair no matter what the weather is like. I love it so far. I've only had it a few weeks, so
hoping it lasts a long time. It also came sooner than I expected, in just 2 days! The price is good too. It sells for at least
$40 more in the salons or beauty supply stores. (I checked!)
Better than Conair, but really not that amazing August 24, 2009
Blanche (San Francisco)
I have thick, curly, coarse hair that frizzes horrendously. I have to completely and forcefully dry it in order to tame it down. I've bought dozens of blow dryers in my lifetime to battle my hair, most from the drugstore. Despite having consistently mediocre-to-poor experiences with these cheapies, I stupidly found myself continuing to buy them. I have no fewer than 4 unused Conairs relegated to the hall closet because they don't perform acceptably. And that's in addition to the countless ones that I've thrown away when they broke.
So I finally decided to change tactics and buy a higher end model. My hair stylist recommended the Elchim brand, as that's what they use in the salon I go to (Vidal Sassoon salon). It's definitely a step up from the Conair, but there are some things I don't love about it.
Things I Like:
-Good, strong air flow
-Feels Solid - plastic feels strong and not flimsy. I've only had it for a few weeks, so it remains to be seen how durable it is compared to the drugstore cheapies, but it feels like it won't break as quickly.
-Long cord so you can move around as needed
-3 settings each for air flow and heat
Things I Don't Like:
-Hottest setting is extremely hot. I burned my finger by touching MY HAIR after drying a lock on the hottest setting! Unfortunately, the medium setting isn't quite hot enough. So I've been using the hottest setting and moving it around fast so it doesn't heat up one area long enough to fry my hair or my fingers. It's tiring and I'm hoping it doesn't damage my hair long term.
-No cool shot.
Overall, seems like a step up from the cheap drugstore dryers because the air flow is much better and it feels more durable (we'll see if that proves true over time), but for some people it might not be worth paying twice as much.
 Heavy, Loud and not that great August 6, 2009

This product is not worth the money. It's very heavy, very very loud and doesn't make a noticable difference in the drying time of my hair. It's no better or worse than the typical $20 conair or revlon dryer. Save your money.
