The ultra-lightweight and quiet BaByliss Pro TT Tourmaline 5000 hair dryer dries your hair quickly and eliminates frizz to create smooth, shiny hair. Plus, the powerful tourmaline and ionic technology won't damage your hair!

Tourmaline, a pure, precious gemstone, is a natural source of negative ions and far-infrared heat. Negative ions eliminate frizz and close the cuticle to create silky, shiny hair. Negative ions also break apart water molecules more quickly, reducing drying time for moisture rich hair. Far-infrared heat penetrates hair from within, resulting in faster drying time with less damage. Ceramic distributes high heat evenly. With 6 heat and speed settings and a cool shot button this hair dryer is versatile for every hair type.

Looking at the reviews here I was shocked, I know that anyone can make a faulty product, but for me this dryer has been kicking butt in straightening hair in a salon setting for 5 years. I am thinking about purchasing another one just like it when my engine goes from overuse. It is a tough, lightweight but powerful dryer. If someone can't get this guy to straighten their hair then your doing it wrong! I have tried FHI (casing fell apart 5 days after purchase), Solano (too heavy and not enough push), and Elchim (3 of them died all after one year, two due to internal mechanical failure and one had a cord fire!) so it goes to show these reviews are not as helpful as one would like.

Awesome...BUT...

This hair dryer is awesome. Me and my girlfriend love it after finding it in a high-end hotel. The problem is, as well with others, the plastic blades on the fan begin to crack causing the fans blades to separate and hit the inner plastic casing. Mine lasted about 14 months. I took the dryer apart to try and fix the broken blades. It work for about a week, then other blades cracked. I want to buy another one just because it's such a great product but I'm afraid after a year or two, I will be stuck with the same problem. For the price of this hair dryer, the fan blades should be made with better plastic materials. Consumers should demand it. Get it together BaByliss.

It would be great -- if it worked longer than 6 months.
Reviewer: Loretta   2009-09-09

I'm on my way out to buy another new dryer and it will NOT be a Babyliss. It's a great dryer at first, but I've had to replace mine three times. Now that the 2-year warranty has expired, I AM DONE. It's insane to spend this kind of money on such a poorly manufactured dryer. The company was relatively agreeable the first time, but after that, they refused to pick up the shipping costs (as if continued breakdowns were my fault). If you buy one, hold on to your original receipt as they will keep asking for it every time you request service.

DO NOT BUY

I have had 3 of these in the past year. Started overheating then just died. I called Conair and they replaced it with a new one. It started making funny noised and overheating within 4 months. They again sent me a 3rd one-which started making the noise again after 3 months and still overheating. I told them to send me a different model. They say I was the only one with a proble, but now I see all these posts. SO glad I was beginning to think it was my outlets in my house. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY.

Another expensive 1yr dryer! TT5000
Reviewer: hickoryplains from Maryland   2009-08-12

Add mine to the, do not buy list- Running on high setting for straightening long thick hair- this dryer can't handle it! Waste of money.
