| A
good hair dryer is the backbone of being able to create great
hair styles quickly and efficiently. There are important features
that make it effective as a hair styling tool, rather than
just a hair dryer:
*Wattage (air speed)
*Heat Settings ( Low and High) You should
have at the low end 1500 watts and up to 1875 watts to get
enough air flow and concentrated heat to dry your hair quickly.
More wattage than this and you can blow the style right out
of your hair. Your heat settings should be easy to use and
should give you at least a low and high heat setting. A cool
shot button is great for setting in the curl, however isn’t
necessary if you are in a hurry. You just need to learn to
allow a curl to cool before removing the round brush or it
will fall out.
#Light weight nozzle hair dryers are easy
to use and the nozzle can be more effective (especially with
a nozzle attachment so heat and air are both more concentrated
in one area) You can also attach a diffuser to a nozzle type
dryer to style in curls. If you are using your blow dryer
as a hairstyling tool, with a round brush to curl or with
a flat brush to straighten the hair, read on:.
#Ionic vs. regular hair dryer
*When my blow dryer died I decided to try
a new ionic hair dryer. Ionic is a fairly new technology in
the hair styling industry. Very few hair stylists can describe
how the technology works. To cut to the chase, it will make
a difference in your hair and hair styles. I could feel the
difference in my hair the first time I used it.
oThe good: your hair will feel more conditioned,
reduces frizzies, reduces static electricity, may promote
more hair shine.
oThe bad: flatter hair, won’t hold curl. (that could
be a positive for some of you)
*So if you have trouble with dry hair, frizzies, or static
, this hair dryer will help. Just realize you may be giving
up the ability to get a lot of Ummmmph and styleability to
your hair styles. You can always try it yourself, most likely
you can return it if it doesn’t perform well for you.
