I cannot stress enough how finicky my hair is and as a result how very picky I am about a hair dryer. This dryer is AMAZING. It is powerful and smooths my usually frizzy hair very well. Typically it takes me some time to de-kink my curls but I have found this process cut in half since I began using this dryer. I have taken to drying my 6 year old daughters hair with this every night. Her hair is very different than my own, long straight and thick. This cuts her dry time in half. I love this powerhouse of a dryer.
