What Hair Dryer Suits You?
The following are the best hair dryers compiled by Allure, Vogue and Good Housekeeping:
Harry Josh Pro Tools Pro Dryer 2000
Allure and Vogue are big fans of this pastel green hair dryer, while Good Housekeeping recommends its more compact version, Ultra Light Pro Dryer. Touted to be Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen’s favorite, this hair dryer is handmade in France and won Allure’s Best of Beauty Award for three years in a row. What Allure raves about is its unique ability to switch between ionic and non-ionic heat. Use ionic heat it you want sleek hair, non-ionic is you’re after volume.
Bio Ionic GrapheneMX Brushless Professional Hair Dryer
If you have fine hair, this one is for you. Without a thick blanket of hair to protect your scalp from heat, blow drying can sometimes cause burns. This hair dryer from Bio Ionic is effective but mild on both the hair and scalp. It also comes with a 10-year motor warranty.
