Would you recommend this dryer for deep conditioning? I saw one review that states it's only good for roller sets and drying hair. Thanks in advance

Yes! This is the same dryer that is used at the salons. just be careful when using at hotter temps like 60-70, it gets really hot. this is a great investment!

It's not ideal but it can be used. If you are looking for a one stop purchase to do both them it can work. The air pulls the plastic cap upwards, if you tuck it...that can be avoided. This is what I have done to work around this aspect, because I really love the quick dry time with my roller sets.

Yes I would recommend it. I also do deep conditioning on this dryer and I am very pleased.

This dryer is great for anything you need to apply heat to. You'll need to use a hairnet over the plastic cap to keep it secure. The wind will lift the cap off the head.

Yes I recommend it for deep conditioning. But I would not turn the heat all the way up for deep conditioning. This is the same exact dryer my salon uses as well and I sit under it with the conditioner a max of 10 minutes and medium heat.

Yes. It is a powerful unit with adjustable settings. I highly recommend for home use and please notice the other responses regarding how any head worn plastic cap flows upwards when the unit is in use. Just be innovative and make any needed adjustments to keep the cap in place.

Hi, I definitely use this dryer for deep conditioning.It is powerful, the air seems to flow upwards, so my plastic cap feels like it's going to fly off sometimes...it lifts a little-but it stays in place. When I plan to blow dry, I sit w/my hair out under the dryer for about 10 min, so that blow drying only takes about 3-5 min..less damaging, less drying. I also wet-set under the dryer for about 45 min-this dryer is superb for this.

I have very fine mid shoulder length hair not sure recommended or not. I have carpal tunnel and find this dryer easy to use. I also think it has helped ony frizzy and made my hair feel silkier then normal hair dryers. I use a roll brush and open air brush. Hope this helps

I have used it many times when my hair was damp! Gives me soft curls. I have frizzy hair and using the rollers while the hair is a little damp cuts back on the frizz.

Just saw this, did you try it? I use steam rollers and usually put hairspray or shine spray on afterwards. I will use a styling product sometimes, like a mouse or gel...stuff you put on wet hair, but not anything that goes on dry hair before rolling. It just seemed to me that the dry application stuff would sort of reactivate with the steam and end up on the rollers instead of my hair. just wondered if you tried it either way.

my hair is thick and I first dry it with a normal hairdryer because it would take a very long time with the curler as it is not that high powered or hot. But, drying with the regular dryer I get it 95% dry then style with the curler. My hair is straight does not have any wave, kink, curl what-so-ever so the styler tames broken split ends....gives it shape, and a slight curl under. I do not believe it replaces a normal blow dryer...at least not for me

If you have curly hair, YES!! It's worth the money. Use the Devacurl products too. It works wonders. This dryer works great once you get the hang of it. You can go on their website for tips. I highly recommend this for all curly hair gals :)

The reason I purchased it is the lower noise. I have thick heavy hair, which dries in less time. I imagine that for hair like you describe you might want to buy the diffuser? But there is quite a variety of the settings. I have not regretted purchasing this quieter dryer as others leave my ears ringing.

Never used it on slow or low setting. On high, my hair dries in 3 minutes, where it use to take 10. I really like the dryer.

Hi, For an at home dryer, I am enjoying using it. Its like sitting in a beauty parlor, you can sit back an enjoy reading a book, while your hair dries. I would also say that it takes about the same amount of time.

I have 3b thick hair I usually air dry my hair when I am wearing it curly the fan is very strong and I would not recommend sitting under the dryer with out some kind of net or you run the risk of getting your hair caught up in the fan. But I do use it for my roller sets and wraps when I wear my hair straight it's great dries my hair in half the time and is also great for my deep treatments .

I tried my other dryer , just to see if there was a difference in noise, and there really wasn't. Both dryers are around the same price point, so maybe they are both quieter than a cheap brand. Honestly, I've never been bothered by the sound, and I don't think its high pitched. I recommend this dryer if you have curly hair. All dryers will make your hair frizzy if you don't have the right products in your hair. I use deva curl products and my hair is never frizzy as long as I use them.

Yes. I love it. I have had one for years and now have two, one in one room and one in another room (one is a back up in case one does go down and I am unable to find one quickly). This last one I purchased was for my daughter in law, as her dryer died and this was a pre Christmas gift. When she was in visiting at Christmas she said she loved it, also. I will never own another regular hair dryer again. This dries hair and also leaves it shiny. I have very curly hair and this tames it. You may not be satisfied with the results, but I am a proponent of this product.

NO. My hair goes down to my lower back. I use big rollers. your head fits but it doesnt cover your whole head. Just half of it. This hair dryer is more for deep conditioning. Its sitting in my garage right now with no use lol. If your going to buy this with the intention of using it for roller sets do not buy it.

There are 2 heat settings plus a cooling setting. I have really thick hair & the lower heat setting is perfect for drying my hair!!! Drying is too hot & tends to spark. Setting is the lower heat setting & it sets my hair perfectly with NO sparking; so I use the Setting 100% of the time!!!

Yes it's amazing I highly recommend if u are experienced at blow drying. Not a beginner dryer. I have 3 at my salon and one at home. It's great
