Choosing a good hair dryer is not easy, especially when it comes to a professional hairdresser's device. The requirements for the best beauty salon appliances are generally much higher than for conventional home models, which are used primarily for tasks such as drying and the most basic hair styling. With serious professional use of the hair dryer, the real power of the device acquires special and, perhaps, even the main importance, that is, the intensity with which it blows the hair. The high-performance device not only saves you a lot of time with great results in no time, but it also doesn't dry out your hair, making it much more manageable and easier to work with. It is also worth paying special attention to additional functions, the most important of which are ionization and cold airflow, as well as to the coverage of the hair dryer and nozzles, a factor that significantly affects the quality of hair and styling.
Although all these features are very important, a hairdryer cannot be called fully professional without some other properties. Many world famous hairdressers note the importance of the convenience of design and model in general and the optimal length of the power cord. It is recommended to give preference to hair dryers with a cable of at least 2.5 meters and a rotating mount in order to get freedom of action. In this case, the device should be light enough, durable, have good thermal insulation and protection from overheating.
