I've gone through 3 of the tabletop and soft-bonnet models within less than a year. At $40+ each, I wish I would have just purchased this one to start with and saved my money and the aggrevation. I'm not 100% convinced of the whole *ionic* craze, but I will say my hair is soft and shiny right out of the dryer without the standard leave-in sprays I would normally add. My hair is long, course and relaxed but still delicate enough it is easily burnt and over-processed. This dryer has me done in 50-60 min tops, curls are set and last for days and I can FINALLY sit comfortably in my reading chair instead of propped up at unnatural angles on the floor/kitchen chairs trying to use the other models!! (My aging back appreciates this let me tell you!) My only complaint is that it is bigger than I expected. The hood has to be large enough to accomodate rollers (which it is), but the base (while it makes the dryer very stable)...Read more 22 of 22 people found the following review helpful: By Glaurea "Reader" (North Brunswick, NJ) - See all my reviews This review is from: Pebco I0NIC Salon Hood Hair Dryer with Wheels 2000 Watts (Health and Beauty) I'm moving to place where there aren't many african-american salons and stylist, so i figured i'll be doing my own hair quite a bit. so i decided to purchase this dryer and I love it. My hair gets dry in 30 minutes on high and 45 minutes on low. I absolutly love it! I sent my blow dryer packing after using this the first time. what i love the most is that it has two fan speed settings, high and low and you can adjust the heat setting to whatever is comfortable for you because it does get as hot as the dryers in salons. the height is adjustable, and the hood is large enough to fit even your larges rollers comfortably. it comes in three peaces and very easy to assamble. I didn't even look at the directions when i assembled mine and best of all, it's QUIET. 24 of 25 people found the following review helpful: By Shopaholic (Charlotte, NC) - See all my reviews This review is from: Pebco I0NIC Salon Hood Hair Dryer with Wheels 2000 Watts (Health and Beauty) I purchased this dryer based on the great reviews I've read and I have an ionic hand dryer that works well, so I figured the hood dryer would be just as good. Not so! If you are a Black person, this dryer doesn't leave your hair as shiny as the regular dryer and if you put rollers in tightly to straighten new growth, it does nothing. It definitely dries faster, but the way the dryer is assembled, you cannot adjust the hood so you are sitting with your head back and it can be a strain on the neck. Also, this dryer makes a ticking sound and when the timer finished the ticking continued for a minute even after I unplugged it. It is definitely quieter than most dryers outside of the ticking. |
