So to be begin my hair is dry-ish, curly, frizzy, thick and wild! I used this after washing it and with a bit of product to protect it against heat but honestly it felt unnecessary. This dried my thick hair pretty quick compared to other dryers and methods. It wasn’t crazy hot on my scalp and it really felt gentle. It surprisingly cut down on lots of the frizz I tend to get which was very nice! I live in a high humid area so that is a great change. I like that it comes with two tools, the diffuser and a concentrator. I really enjoyed using the diffuser but be sure to partially dry it first! Smaller sections if you have lots of hair like me. My hair after using it feels very soft and really happy. I will definitely continue to use this hair dryer. I love it! The only thing about it I didn’t like is the cord length. Which isn’t a deal breaker but being left handed it makes it annoying based on where your plug is. But really let the results speak I can work around it!
