Chi Lava Hair Dryer, $179.99, Ulta<\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Even though the Chi Lava Dryer is technically a professional, everyday dryer, it\u2019s so compact and lightweight that you can conveniently pack it wherever you go. Its performance is unparalleled because of its unique technology using a collaboration of signature ceramic and lava rock to deliver the benefits of hydrating heat and anions. The hydrating heat prevents your hair from losing its natural hydration that can make the hair appear dull and the anions (negative ions) help seal the cuticle of the hair giving you a shiny and long-lasting style! Its balanced design allows for easy use with little to no fatigue and the three nozzle attachments (straight, comb and diffuser) make this a \u201cone size fits all\u201d tool.  <\/p>\r\nCynthia Diersen, creative artistic team member at CHI Haircare\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> and owner of The Colour Bar, A Cynthia Diersen Salon in Cypress, Texas <\/cite><\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Tool Science hair dryer comes with a direct air attachment and diffuser. This has been the best blow dryer I have ever brought. It heats to 450 degrees to tackle coarse hair, but it also has three temperature settings and three air settings (which adjust how forceful the air is), for finer or weaker hair that can’t take that much heat. There’s also a cool shot button for no heat at all. Definitely a must-buy. I purchased mine from Sally Beauty.<\/p>\r\nTiffany Shelly, CEO, Last Minute Hair LLC<\/cite><\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
