Reviews of Hair Dryers »

I'm still not sure what the little blue light is for!

Advantages: Very good value, quiet, durable so far.
Disadvantages: Could do with a third speed

Why I bought this I haven't got a great track record with hairdryers - expensive ones, cheap ones; they all have tended to give up the ghost on me. One of my main reasons for purchasing this hairdryer about 6 months ago was price - at £18.85 currently on Amazon (I bought mine for £18.86 at Asda) it didn't seem a huge risk. It has actually proved to be a very good purchase. What you get in the box This is a basic hairdryer with a detachable ...
...It is sleek and shiny black and has 2 speed settings, 2 heat settings, a cold button and also a "turbo boost" button. There is an ionic button as well which can turn the ion function (more of which later) on and off. The dryer comes with a one year guarantee and is quite light weight at 470g roughly, to my measurements. Dimensions are 9x22x23. There is a removable filter on the back, which is silver and slips on and off easily enough. For the price ...

Super shiny with no need to straighten

Advantages: Quick Easy and mega shiny hair!
Disadvantages: no cool shot button

I got this hairdryer as a christmas present and at first was dubious at what it could do for my long thick hair which is neither straight nor curly, it claimed that due to the silk protein capsules the heat was actually good for your hair! I was used to spending a long time drying and then straightening my hair to tame it so when I used this hairdryer for the first time I was stunned at the results. The capsules are easy to use and last up to 30 ...
...dry naturally for a bit and so do not use it for 30 minutes at once but have found that if the capsule is put back in its wrapper it is effective for a second use. The hairdryer comes with 2 nozzles, one for normal and one to hold a capsule, and a pack of 4 capsules. It has 3 heat settings and 2 speeds with a turbo button (although it is advised in instructions not to use this with capsules) With the hairdryer selling at about £35 and a pack of six ...

Whatever Ionic means - it's good!

Advantages: Fast drying, shine and volume
Disadvantages: No 'bits and pieces' just the dryer

...to the counter. The Remington D 4410 looked a bit pathetic in it's lonely box. Half the size of the many of the other dryers and without any accompaniments I was a little disappointed. For the weeks following Christmas I ignored my D4410 and continued to use my mum's slightly heftier blow drier, until I returned to University, about 2 weeks later. The first time I used the hair dryer my mind was immediately changed. It is simple to use with 2 speed ...
...There is also a cold blast button, good for when you burn your ears. Although slightly boring looking in grey and silver, the dryer is stylish and despite not being in the shape of a duck, I learned to love the D4410 very quickly, and here's why: - There is no doubt that the D4410 brings a healthy shine to my hair that I have never managed before. Often my hair looks limp and in pain, however, using the D4410 even I have managed to bring a look ...
