T3 Tourmaline Overnight Hair Dryer

I was skeptical if these ionic hair dryers were worth the premium price, but a bad case of frizzy hair led me to try one.

The T3 Travel dryer has a swivel handle that rotates under to make it compact for travel. Why, you ask, would you bother to travel with a dryer when most hotels now supply one in the bathroom? The answer is because this dryer is so good, you won't want to use any other.

My hair did indeed dry about 30 to 40 percent faster, and it's very smooth and shiny when it's dry. The principle of the dryer is to bombard the hair with ions that essentially "explode" the water off your hair. (Coating water droplets with ions that vaporize and dispel the water.) Whatever the theory, it seems to work.

My dryer came in a nice canvas bag with room for a brush and other cosmetics with a hanger hook. Also came with an ionic brush. Not sure if this model also comes with travel bag, but I was pleased with it. Just make sure you pack it away in...Read more

DO NOT BUY HAIRDRYERS T3 FROM AMAZON MERCHANTS. NONE OF THEM FALL WITHIN THE MFG WARRANTY AND THEY WILL BREAK AND NO ONE WILL HELP YOU. AMAZON WILL HIDE BEHIND THEIR 90 DAY POLICY AND THE SELLERS ARE SMALL SHOPS THAT DON'T NEED YOUR LOYALTY AND MAY AT BEST OFFER TO SEND YOU A REPLACEMENT FAKE HAIRDRYER. WHICH WILL ALSO PROBABLY BREAK AND NOT FALL UNDER THE 4 YEAR WARRANTY. SEPHORA AND DEPT STORES ARE AUTHORIZED DEALERS.

I bought one of these at a Sephora, and I was really happy with it at first. However, the THIRD time I used it, the fan became dislodged mid-blow dry and the thing stopped working. There was no way to open it up and fix it myself. I wasn't mis-using it at all, I had kept it in the box the entire time, it just fell apart. I would expect MUCH more out of a $130 blow dryer. And to make matters worse, I tried to exchange it at Sephora, and they told me to go directly through the manufacturers using the warranty. When I emailed T3, I was told I'd have to pay $15 for shipping to receive a new one. So basically, after their blow dryer fell apart, they wanted me to pay MORE money to get a new one. Thanks, but I'd rather try out a higher-quality product that stays in tact.
