I was on the fence about how well this Dryer would possible work and was pleasantly blown away (pun intended). I didn't place any product in my hair so that I would be able to get a straightforward review. My hair was dry in about 10 minutes which is usually unheard of with my long hair. My hair does not feel damaged, but smooth and healthy! The dryer itself is very lightweight and the temp/speed options are great. There is also a cool shot button to really lock in your style. I usually avoid drying my hair/using too many heat tools, but I can honestly say I would recommend and use this dryer often. It's a high quality product and also has a nice sleek look to it.
