Purpose of the hair dryer

For drying your hair, basically any hair dryer is suitable. What you need to take into account, for example, is the thickness of your hair. Depending on that, you choose a mild or a strong device. There are also a number of factors that come into play when styling your hair. Do you want to style your hair precisely with a hair dryer? Then it is useful to have a narrow blow nozzle. Want to dry curly hair beautifully? Then use a diffuser. This will make your hair dry more naturally. If you suffer from dry and frizzy hair, choose a hair dryer with ionic technology. The negative ions will make your hair less likely to dry out. If you have sensitive or dyed hair, go for a ceramic hairdryer. This distributes the heat evenly through the hair, so no strand of hair is overheated. Just goes to show how many factors can play a role!

Frequency of hairdryer use

Depending on how often you are going to use the hair dryer, we recommend one with an AC or DC motor. If you use it almost daily, buy one with an AC motor. This protects your hair and prevents dryness and frizz. This is important because hair has little time to recover if it is blow-dried daily. An AC motor also has a longer lifespan. Do you use the appliance less often? Then opt for a DC motor. It is slightly lower in price, smaller in size and is lighter in weight. This is very handy to take with you when travelling, for example.

Frequently asked questions about a hairdryer

What is a good hairdryer?

That depends entirely on your hair type and preferences. For example, do you like to blow-dry your hair daily? Then go for a hairdryer with an AC motor. This protects your hair and prevents dryness and frizz. Do you use the hairdryer occasionally? Then choose a DC motor. It is slightly lower in price, smaller in size and lighter in weight.

How do you blow dry your hair?

Start with towel-dried hair and use heat protection. Then comb your hair thoroughly and divide it into several sections. With thick hair, this can be three or four, with thinner hair two. Then start drying at the bottom, slowly grabbing sections of your hair each time. You can use a brush or comb to do this in a more controlled way.

Which hairdryer for curls?

Basically, you can use any hair dryer for your curls, as long as it has a diffuser. This way, you can dry your hair naturally, without messing up that beautiful bunch of curls. It also prevents dry and frizzy hair.

Buying a hairdryer: what to look out for?

When buying a hair dryer, pay attention to its power and special functions. Hair industry professionals recommend such a minimum wattage of 1750. This is fine for most hair types. If you have very thick hair, buy one with 1900 or 2000 watts. Then you will have a faster drying time. Furthermore, a hairdryer can have ionic and ceramic functions. The former prevents dehydration and the latter distributes the heat more evenly over your head.

How hot does a hairdryer get?

A hairdryer can reach temperatures of up to 100 degrees. Of course, this depends entirely on the setting you put it in. To minimise damage to your hair, we recommend the lowest possible temperature. This will only make your hair less likely to dry.
