Product Rating: 5 awesome product!
Reviewer: anon from California  Wed Jan 10 2007

This is a GREAT dryer... dries fast (I can sleep later!)... and seems to be good on my doubly processed hair... it's very quiet... you can dry your hair and talk on the phone at the same time! (Almost!)... well worth the $$$

Product Rating: 5 Great product
Reviewer: Cathy   Fri Jan 05 2007

I bought this blow dryer for myself a few months ago. I now realize why I was never able to get my hair to look the way it does when they do it at a salon. It's all in the blow drier. Not your technique. I finally have salon quality blow outs at home.

I just puchased 3 more for each of my daughters as Christmas presents. They all agree...it's amazing. There's not even a need for a flat iron/straightener anymore.

Product Rating: 4 Gives me great hair!!

It is a very potent dryer, lightweight and the carry box is beautiful. Slightly $$$ but worth it specially if you have long, coarse hair like me!!

Product Rating: 5 Babyliss Pro TT Tourmaline 5000 ROCKS
Reviewer: Amy D. from Milford, NJ  Fri Dec 01 2006

Ok, this was my 3rd blowdryer in a week at Folica. Thank god for the great return policy. The 3rd time was a charm, this dryer ROCKS. It takes me 12 mins. to do my hair and it used to take about 25. I love this dryer. You can use a brush and do down the shaft of your hair and by the second to third time that section of hair is completely dry. It doens't get so hot that your scalp is burning and it's powerful. It's super lightweight to. I love my Solano but this Babyliss is awesome. It has a 50 month warranty. You can't beat that. It's worth more than it's weight in GOLD!!! I truly love it!

If you're on the fence between this and the T3, go for this one, it's soooooo much faster and better!

Product Rating: 5 Much better than expected...
Reviewer: Sian from Auburn, WA  Tue Nov 07 2006

I bought this hairdryer because I needed a new one and thought I would try the Tourmaline option as I recently got a tourmaline flat iron and loved the results from that - I don't know if it's the tourmaline or the ionic part - but these products make my hair very noticeably smoother and silkier. After I got the flat iron I noticed much silkier hair (and much more manageable and never a flyaway). Then, as my fresh haircut and color got older, it wasn't so soft - well, when I got this hair dryer I had missed my last appt and was about 12 weeks out from my last cut and color and after the 2nd time using it, it was like a fresh cut/color softness! Wow! Yes, it was expensive - but I really do think it was worth it! I also like the fact that it is quieter than other dryers I have had and the hot is really hot and the cool shot works fast. I also got a 'slicker' vent brush and use that too and I think that helps with the silkiness as well...

Product Rating: 5 I got mine at a hair EXPO!
Reviewer: Megan from Long Beach, CA  Wed Sep 20 2006

This is top of the line dryer. It has a 50 month warranty and its well made. Light and leaves my hair silky smooth! I totally recommend this, its the most reliable and its well known by people in the hair industry. LOOk no further, get ALL your styling tools from babyliss, you will love them!

Product Rating: 4 Impressive results, awkward switch placement
Reviewer: Jodie from Seattle, WA  Thu Sep 07 2006

This is the first "pro" type hairdryer I have owned, and I am impressed. My hair felt less dry after the first use, and continues to be softer and silkier. My only complaint is that the temperature and on/off switches are placed in such a way that I accidentally switch them while in use.

Product Rating: 4 Babyliss PRO TT
Reviewer: Pegga   Thu Sep 07 2006

This hairdryer is great! I have used Babyliss before and have found it to be a reliable and long lasting product. The only downside is that the cool button does not hold down. You have to keep the finger on it to have cool air blow out. Once you remove your finger you get the hot air again. Other than that, I think its a wonderful hair dryer and recommend anyone who wants to spend a little bit more to invest in this product.

Product Rating: 5 Worth EVERY Penny!!!
Reviewer: Erin from Atlanta, Ga  Tue Apr 04 2006

I have incredibly thick hair, which usually takes about an hour to dry straight. However, with this dryer my drying time literally has dropped to about 15-25 minutes, depending on how long I air dry before using the dryer. Either way, by using this dryer my drying time has been cut by over half!! This dryer is amazing and worth every penny!!

Product Rating: 3 Good dryer
Reviewer: Kristen   Wed Mar 29 2006

After reading the good review, I gladly forked over the money for this dryer. The Pro TT did dry my hair in less time than a traditional dryer, however my hair looked WORSE! I was expecting the fly-aways and breakage to be smoothed by the dryer, but they were much more pronounced. I returned the dryer, not because of quality, but because it wasn't appropriate for my fine, chemically treated and damaged hair. Very pleased with Folica: fast shipping and easy returns!

Product Rating: 5 It changed my life!!
Reviewer: LESLIE from long beach, ca  Tue Mar 28 2006

I spin 4 times a week and dread doing my hair, its curly, course and frizzy...I never get it to look like the salon without drying it for an hour and then pressing it for another 30 minutes....It took me 15-20 minutes to dry my hair, it was silky smooth, amazing....I couldn't not believe it, this dryer is worth every penny......the true test was this morning, it was raining when I came to work and my hair is still smooth.....LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT....

Product Rating: 5 Totally worth it!
Reviewer: Too curly   Thu Mar 02 2006

I absolutely love this dryer! I have long, thick, curly hair that I straighten about 2x a week. This has cut my drying time drastically. I take a shower, wrap my hair in a towel, get some stuff done while it drys a bit. Then section my hair and straighten with a large round brush (T3 or a boar). After I'm done my hair is smooth, shiny and very straight. I only need to use my flat iron to touch up!! And I love the carrying case too, very convenient.

Product Rating: 4 Nice Dryer
Reviewer: Lydia from Manhattan Beach, CA  Thu Feb 16 2006

I just got this dryer and it seems to work very well for me. It's fairly light, quiet, and durable. I especially love the case. The buttons are in an awkward position, however, and it's easy to turn the dryer off or change the settings accidentally. I got the T3 and returned it because I did not think it was worth $200 (that's how much I paid). Compared to the T3, the Babyliss has more settings and is more compact, powerful and durable. It has a professional cord and that adds a little weight to the dryer. I have small hands so the T3 was a little big for me. I accidently scratched the paint on my T3 with the prongs on the cord. I was suprised because I never had that problem with my $20 dryer. Overall, the Babyliss is the winner.

Product Rating: 5 Perfect
Reviewer: Heather from Longwood Florida  Wed Feb 15 2006

I too am a stylist and really love this dryer. The hair is smoother shinier and dries faster than other dryers,well Babyliss rocks anyway! Worth every penny and less than the T3.

Product Rating: 5 GREAT for thic,k tends-to- frizz hair
Reviewer: Brenda from Maryland  Sat Feb 11 2006

I used to take 40-45 minutes to attempt to dry my thick, tends-to-frizz-easily hair, which never completely dried even with this time devoted to drying. ( I would also get very tired arms!) I am a busy lawyer and don't have the time or patience for the 45 minte hair routine. This dryer is amazing. It dries my hair in half the time- completely dry, (and using the warm setting, not even the hot setting! ) I can leave for work without flat ironing it, too- it is smooth all day( if I don't go to the gym, it will continue to be smooth through the next day!) This dryer was definitely worth the extra money. I will buy one for my best friend who has similar hair issues to mine. She lives in Miami, where the smoothing effect of this dryer will be great...

Product Rating: 3 Not that great
Reviewer: Anna from San Francisco CA  Fri Feb 10 2006

I was not pleased with this dryer. I found the on-off switches to be in an awkward place, and the hair dryer too cumbersome to put back in its case. Also quite heavy.

Product Rating: 5 Glad I got it
Reviewer: A Customer from San Francisco  Sun Jan 29 2006

This ceramic ion hairdryer feels more efficient and easier on my fragile, thinning bleached and aged hair than the ion dryer I had been using. My hairdresser can see the difference, and got two for her work station.

Product Rating: 5 Great dryer!!
Reviewer: Barbara from Las Vegas, Nevada  Thu Dec 15 2005

I have had several Babyliss dryers and this is by far the best. I currently have the Carrera which is a ceramic and ionic dryer. I have heard so much about the Tourmaline dryers that I decided to purchase this one since it has Low, Med and High air settings as well as Med, cool and High heat settings. I have noticed that my hair is dry about 5-7 minutes faster than with the Carrera. My hair is also softer. I have had many compliments on my hair since using this dryer and I have not changed my routine or products. I highly recommend this dryer!! Also, Folica is great! The dryer arrived when promised and shipping was free.

Product Rating: 5 Great purchase
Reviewer: Anonymous from Las Vegas, NV  Tue Nov 01 2005

I chose this dryer because me and my daughter have thick hair that usually takes about 15-20 minutes to dry. I opted for this brand over the T3 because I heard that the T3 only has one heat/speed setting, plus this was cheaper. I am very pleased at the speed of hair drying...now I'm done in 10 minutes. This hair dryer has a cool, warm, and hot setting plus low and high speed. It also leaves my hair soft.

Product Rating: 4 excellent dryer!!!!!!
Reviewer: Martine Le Blanc from L.A.  Tue Oct 11 2005

As stylists, we are always searching for great dryers... I recently purchased mine from Cosmoprof here in LA, and it is a phenomenal dryer. It is light and I find that it dries the hair v.quickly, with little to no frizz. I have a s.solano and a velecta paramount and this is my new favourite dryer!
Cheers!
