Want to Achieve a Salon Blow Dry at Home? These are the Hair Dryers For You! (1)

There are hair dryers and then there are hair dryers that go beyond just drying your hair. They leave your hair soft, smooth and shinier; they cut down on your blow-drying time; are small enough to take on the road and look great. Those are the kinds of hair dryers we’re interested in at Vivo.

Before we get into which hair dryers we recommend, our first tip which applies to whichever hair dryer or heated hair tool that you use, don’t forget heat protectant to ensure your hair stays healthy (not sure where to start? We’ve listed some of our favourite at the end)! Ok, safety message done, let’s continue...

ghd Air Hair Dryer

For those mornings when you’re running late, use the ghd Air hair dryer, which can dry your hair in half the time (compared to other regular hair dryers) thanks to its 2,100W professional-strength motor and patented removable air filter that delivers high pressure air flow for super fast drying. Speedy drying doesn’t mean you’ll be left with frizzy hair though, the ghd air leaves you with smooth, soft hair that shines. Don’t just take our word for it though, users have left reviews like this one: “I never really believed a hair dryer could make all that much difference. I was wrong. The GHD Air has been a game changer. For the first time ever I can achieve a smooth, frizz-free blow dry without needing to run the straightener through afterwards.”
