Hair dryers are a very useful day-to-day use product. The best way to choose the perfect hair dryer is to judge by it usage. As inexpensive models may be inappropriate for extensive styling but they are suitable for someone who only uses a dryer infrequently or someone with short hair who can dry their hair quickly. If it is for style to lock and add more volume, one may prefer a midrange model that offers more attachments and options. The most expensive dryers are best for individuals who use them for extensive styling or whose hair is extremely sensitive to heat damage.

Use hair dryer as style aid

If used properly, a dryer can help smooth hair, add volume and even condition hair when combined with heat-activated conditioners and other hair products. To use the dryer effectively, direct the hot air run down the strands from the root toward the tip. Reversing the direction will blow up hair follicles and cause frizzy, dull hair. For more even heat application and control just keep the dryer at least eight inches away from hair, unless the styling method purposely calls for closer use. Covering hair around a wide brush can help control the strands to apply heat evenly and add volume to it.

Avoid heat damages

Avoid excessive heat damage by limiting the amount of heat that is applied to hair. Let the locks dry naturally even partway before using a dryer can help minimize damage. Keeping the tool further away from hair helps prevent burning and use the lowest possible heat setting to achieve the styling task. Do not apply heat to hair for lengthy periods of time and keep both the dryer and the hair moving to prevent intent the heat in one location. If the hair dryers is used frequently, consider using heat-activated and leave in conditioners to safeguard tresses from severe damage.

Tips

Hair dryers are the most commonly used hair styling tools but improper use can result in severe heat damage and dull, lifeless hair. To use a dryer effectively choose the model that best suit the needs and try to limit the amount of heat apply. Adding heat treatment products and conditioners can help moderate the damage and careful use can result in superior hairstyles that never look like a dryer has been used at all.
