Feature Friday

So now that I have introduced you to one of my fave curling irons, meet one of my favorite blow dryers. Blow drying is something I think just about every girl dreads doing. It takes time, your arms get tired, and it can end in war when your hair is hard to handle. A good blow dryer will make life a little easier. Professional lever dryers are higher heat, meaning faster drying. They also come with helpful attachments, like a nozzle. Nozzles are fabulous because they concentrate the air flow making it more direct to one area at a time, again, reducing dry time. The nozzle directing the hair one direction also helps reduce frizz.

You can spend hundreds on blow dryers if you would like. However, they do tend to die, especially if you are using them daily (which you shouldn't be because you are only washing every other day right?). For most of us a blow dryer is not where we are dying to spend all our extra cash. So what do I like? I like the lovely Hot Tools one shown below. It gets hot, does the job, and is affordable. And two years later mine is still kickin', which is impressive considering how many heads of hair it takes on in a a week. It is the perfect blend of quality and price. So give it a try and see if it revolutionizes your blow dry. Remember, always use heat protection, especially when using professional grade dryers.
