From spare to my new favorite dryer
I bought this to use as a spare. I have very curly hair, so I wrap it in rods to make it less curly. (It pulls on my scalp and gets painfully dry otherwise.) And, I use a dryer with a soft hood attachment to dry my hair every night to increase the odds that it will be dry or close to dry in the morning and most mornings for a few minutes if the hair is still damp. I find this helps me to gently bake moisture in and enjoy frizz free. luscious curls. BUT, my sister takes my dryer without asking and then does not return it before I need it, so I bought a spare (for the 2nd time as she took my last one) so that I am not inconvenienced. I tried it today and I LOVE it! It is so much nicer than my usual one. First, my old one was 2000W whereas this one is 1875W, and yet the air flow is amazing and it can get very hot. But, the cool setting (required to not melt the soft hood) is easy to tolerate. So, there is a lot of air flow and decent heat on the Warm, Medium settings. Also, I love how the attachment snaps into place. (Typically, I have to use plumber's tape to make the attachment stay on but still be removable.) And even through the barrel is small and there is a gap around the soft hood hose, there is very little air escaping through there. And, I can tell that the air is hitting all sides of my head at once. The motor is also a bit quieter than my old one. And, I thought my old one was pretty good. So, I couldn't be happier... well, yes I could. My old 'universal' diffuser attachment does not fit this dryer. And, now that I know how great this one is, I will need to find one. But, still, this is one of the best dryers that I can recall every buying. So, I am kinda glad that I decided to combat the borrowing with a backup. Read more
