Can you recognize a good hair dryer by the fact that it dries your hair quickly? On the one hand, yes - especially if you wash your hair in the morning and want to have a perfect hairstyle quickly and easily. On the other hand, speed alone is not everything. Which hair dryer should you choose to be satisfied with it? Check what parameters of the device to pay attention to.

 You can find a variety of hair dryers with many functions on store shelves and in online stores. We suggest how to find your way around and consciously choose a device that you will be happy to use.

 Hair dryer power - see if it is worth paying attention to

 How powerful is the hair dryer you are currently using? There is a high probability that you do not know the answer to this question. No wonder - the power of the hair dryer is a parameter that is often overlooked when choosing a device. However, if you want the dryer to be perfectly suited to your needs, it is worth taking a closer look.

 The principle is simple. The more powerful the device, the faster the drying will be. This is because higher power also means a higher maximum blowing speed. However, do you always have to choose devices with the highest power? No! It all depends on what kind of hair you have. If you have short or sparse locks, a 1700 W dryer will be enough. On the other hand, for thick, coarse and long hair, a dryer with a power of 2200-2400 W will be better.

 A dryer with cold airflow and temperature control? Check what these functions are

 Temperature and airflow control are two basic functions of hair dryers. Why is it worth paying attention to them? We check:

•  temperature control - usually dryers have two or three temperature levels - from warm to very warm airflow. Whether you choose a dryer with two or three modes depends on your preferences. For example, if you regularly change the temperature during one drying, a dryer with three settings will be better. You will be able to better adjust the temperature to the moisture level of your hair.
•  air flow adjustment – ​​the dryer can have two or three air flow levels. The higher the level, the stronger the air flow. Before choosing a device, consider whether you need a very strong air flow. For example, you may not want the dryer to blow all your hair up. In such a situation, a wider range of programs will certainly be better – you will be able to choose a very light or medium air flow.

 Our offer includes dryers that are additionally equipped with a cold air flow function. The Zelmer ZHD8350 and ZHD8360 dryers with cold air will allow you to take better care of your hair. How? Just turn on the cold air flow for the last few minutes of drying, and your hair will be shinier and smoother.

 Please also note that the ZHD8360 model is equipped with ionization. Hair dryers with ionization take better care of your hair and protect it from high temperatures. How? Hot air not only causes water to evaporate from the surface of your hair, but also contributes to the creation of positive electric charges. In addition to electrifying your hair, frequent drying can cause hair cuticles to open. Ionization helps prevent this process - negative charges are released during drying, which settle on your hair and neutralize positive charges.

So if you often use a hair dryer and also turn on the highest temperature, an ionization hair dryer will be the perfect choice for you. Thanks to ionization, your hair will not become electrified. It will also become shinier and smoother.

Hair dryer with diffuser and concentrator - what are these accessories for?

Almost every hair dryer has a plastic cover that is put on the front of the device. This is the concentrator. Thanks to it, the air is blown through a smaller hole – so it can fall on a specific section of hair.

When is it worth using a concentrator? For example, when you use a round brush and dry your hair strand by strand. A concentrator will also be useful when you want to quickly dry a specific part of your hair – e.g. at the back of your head.

Some hair dryers are also equipped with a diffuser. A hair dryer with a diffuser will come in handy if you want to enhance the curl of your hair. Thanks to this attachment, you can create curls and waves. Just remember – if your hair tends to curl, drying it with a diffuser is a simple task. However, if you have straight hair and want to enhance the curl, use hair mousse first.

Hair dryer – which one is best?

Which hair dryer will be best for you depends on your individual preferences. Do you want to constantly adjust the temperature and power to the moisture of your hair? Choose a dryer with three temperature and airflow levels. Do you like to dry your hair with a cold airflow? Choose a dryer with this function. Do you want to enhance the curl of your hair? Make sure your new dryer has a diffuser.
