Product Rating: 4 Powerful, but hot.
Reviewer: Jane from Boston  Wed Mar 09 2005

This hairdryer is very powerful and dries my hair faster than ever. The ionic feature really seems to work. My hair is in better condition than it was before this dryer. It runs a little too hot for my scalp, so I have to be really careful to keep it moving. Overall, I am happy with the purchase.

Product Rating: 5 great buy
Reviewer: fduarte   Fri Mar 04 2005

I loved this dryer!! It dries in half the time. The concentrator nozzle is a must. It is also pretty quiet.It is not as heavy as most dryers you buy at the drug store, but you have to switch hands often if you have long or curly hair.

Product Rating: 5 Better than I expected
Reviewer: Jeanette C. from Denton, Tx  Fri Mar 04 2005

I chose this hairdryer because of the reviews. I am very happy with this hairdryer. I does a great job drying my hair and keeping my curly hair from frizzing. It is not at all heavy like I thought it would be. I had to order the diffuser that snpped on the the end because of the hairdyers design, which I wasn't expecting, but overall I am very pleased. I would definitely recommend this product.

Product Rating: 4 Great Dryer, if a little heavy
Reviewer: Sue from St. Louis  Fri Mar 04 2005

I have very thick hair and this dryer does a great job of getting it dry quickly, without using high heat or high fan speeds. But it's fairly heavy. At least I don't have to hold it long!!!

Product Rating: 5 Great Hair Dryer
Reviewer: Ginger   Fri Mar 04 2005

Love this hair dryer. It is heavy but very powerful.

Product Rating: 5 Love this hairdryer!
Reviewer: Jill from Idaho  Fri Mar 04 2005

Idaho is very dry, which makes for nasty dry hair. My old hair dryer made the problem worse. I can definitely tell a difference with this dryer. It dries my hair quickly, but doesn't leave it feeling brittle. Also, I love the rubber "bumpers" on the sides of the dryer. The dryer doesn't get scratched, nor does my dresser.

Reviewer: gina   Tue Mar 01 2005

Absolutely awesome! Dries hair super quick cutting drying time almost in half. Although a bit heavy, its worth it.

Product Rating: 5 Simply the best
Reviewer: Steph from San Diego  Sun Feb 27 2005

Bought it, based on reviews. I have turned out some fantastic hair-dos sinse. Very professional styler, love the attachment. A little heavy at first but got used to it.

Product Rating: 4 I THINK I LIKE IT
Reviewer: Courtney from Chesapeake VA  Thu Feb 24 2005

I bought my dryer after reading all the great reviews. Well, I will say this the hair dryer is very pretty and sleek looking. I even like the noise it makes when you turn it on and when you click it off, such a smooth sound. Anyhoo enough about my fascination with the sound and how pretty the actual dryer is. It does dry my hair faster. I like the work out it gives me. I really need to lift weights, so this is a good thing for me. The only problem I have is the static. I thought it would eliminate the static and now I have more than ever. My hair does get straight, but the little short hairs stick straight up on my head, even after spraying them and a day old dirty hair the static is still there... I just can't figure it out. Oh well, I will keep using my dryer because I have faith the static will work itself out and she is a bute.

Reviewer: Sara from Houston, Tx.  Tue Feb 22 2005

This dryer drys hair fast. Love it. Only problem is it is a little too heavy but It is worth it.

Product Rating: 5 Not Just Another Hair Dryer
Reviewer: Lyn from New Jersey  Mon Feb 21 2005

I purchased the BaByliss Thermal Ionic Hair Dryer and loved it so much for my long thick hair that I purchased another and sent it off to my college age daughter. She can't believe how fast it drys her hair. She has thanked me many times for being able to shower and blow dry in no time. Her college is in a cold part of the country and it enables her to get to class without icicles hanging from her hair!

Product Rating: 5 Great product!
Reviewer: k   Sat Feb 19 2005

Love the hairdryer, didn't think a hairdryer could be much different, but it gives my hair a much better texture and no fly away hair! Love it!

Product Rating: 5 Best hairdryer I've ever owned
Reviewer: Laurell from Cleveland Ohio  Thu Feb 17 2005

This dryer is an excellent product, it drys my highlighted hair quicker than any one I've ever tried, without drying out the ends. My hair is silky and smooth after every use. Would highly recommend for the price!

Product Rating: 5 Great Hairdryer!!!
Reviewer: Nessa from Davis  Wed Feb 16 2005

I didn't really notice the difference that this blowdryer made until I had to spend the night at my mom's house and had to use a regular Revlon blow dryer to do my hair.

My hair is curly and after I was done blowdrying my head looked huge! When I got home, I redid my hair with the babyliss and I was so glad I bought it!!! It is worth the money! I love being able to wear my hair in its natural state, curly, and have it look good. I've gotten so many compliments with my curly hair, something I never thought possible. And that's without the diffuser! I can't wait to buy it. The great thing is that I can blow dry my hair at the lowest heat and my curls never get disturbed or frizzy. I love it!! I also like to straighten my hair, and with the spornette brush, the sedu, and the babyliss, I get salon hair everyday!!!! I love it!!! Thank You Folica for making me love the hair I once abhorred and for being able to make hair look great curly and straight!!! The only bad thing with the blowdryer is that it is a bit heavy when straightening and the buttons are close to where you put your fingers so it can be a bit inconvenient, but I consider that extremely minimal, when at then end of the day, everyday, I have the hair I've always wanted!!!

Product Rating: 4 Fabulous!
Reviewer: Kim from Cambridge, MA  Mon Feb 14 2005

Dries without frying and not too heavy. My last dryer was a Wigo and weighed a ton. This is very easy to manage. I always keep it on turbo - strong and not too hot. I can't tell what the Ionic does, I haven't noticed a difference and I've been using it for 2 months. Overall, a great dryer. I hope it lasts longer than the Wigo (12 months).

Product Rating: 5 This hair dryer is awesome
Reviewer: Amanda from Winston Salem, North Carolina  Fri Feb 11 2005

I received my hair dryer yesterday and used it this morning. I am so impressed with the results I got that I have already emailed all my friends and recommended this product! Since I have arrived at work I have received five compliments on how great my hair looks! One person even asked me if I had gotten my hair professionaly done last night! My hair is so shiny, bouncy and soft...I couldn't be happier...it's worth every penny! I seriously don't think I will ever use anything else ever again.

Product Rating: 5 keeps away frizz
Reviewer: Lieschen Stothoff from NJ  Wed Feb 09 2005

This is the only dryer that I've ever had that doesn't make my hair like a fuzz ball, I love it.

Product Rating: 4 satisfied customer
Reviewer: Stacey from Seattle  Wed Feb 09 2005

This is my first investment (>$50) hair dryer and I am extremely satisfied with the purchase. I see visible results. For example my hair has a natural wave, with other hair dryers no matter how much I tried to straighten my hair it would wave back up afterwards. With this dryer I can easily style my hair and it stays in that style. I also notice a lot less frizz. My drying time is also noticably shorter. The hair dryer is heavy but like I said the drying time is shorter, I don't mind the workout.

Product Rating: 5 This really is the best blowdryer I've ever used
Reviewer: Anonymous from Long Beach, Ca  Tue Feb 08 2005

After years and years (and years) of styling, my hair seemed to be getting very tired. I moved to the beach where there's always humidity in the air in the mornings, and so I've gotten used to "the morning frizz". I had one of those Sharper Image Ionic hair Dryers, but it seems to be performing a little slower after a few years of use.(and has kind of scary-looking electic flashes to kick off the heat cycle every few seconds), so I thought it was time to look into the current blow dryers with the latest technology.

As drying my hair long, thick hair every morning is a necessary evil, I thought that I should buy the best dryer I could... it's not like I could just skip it and go wet or ponytail to work. After reading how powerful this dryer is, I was hoping to cut down on the drying time. I thought too that I would buy the ionic feature because I need all the help I can get.

After just 1/2 week of use, I can say that this dryer leaves my hair softer and shinier than it has been in years. And I don't feel that the dryer is damaging my hair, because there's no excessive heat. I have to put gel in my hair, now, though, because without the frizz, it looks flatter. But it holds a style now.

I would very much recommend this hair dryer to anyone with lots of hair who fights frizz. It really works.

Product Rating: 5 great dryer, great value
Reviewer: Steve F from NYC  Tue Feb 08 2005

I'm a guy with medium length wavy hair and this dryer works very well for straightening and styling my hair without making it frizzy. I was using a nonionic dryer and then I used my sisters chi turbo dryer and decided I had to get an ionic one for myself. This dryer works as good or better than the chi turbo one at less than half the cost! Its amazing how much faster this dries my hair than my old dryer and this one is so much quieter too. Highly recommended.
