Write a review about the BaByliss Thermal Ionic Hair Dryer



Product Rating: 5 Would never purchase any other dryer
Reviewer: Cristina K. from Long Island, NY  Thu Apr 05 2007

I bought this dryer a few years ago and use it daily. I normally had flat, fine hair but with this dryer and a big round brush my hair is full and bouncy. I was just on vacation and used it in the las vegas hotel ( I had to bring it with me even though the room came with one). It kept over-heating and by the end of 6 days it had died. I honestly believe it had something to do with the different electricity than my home. The dryer never over heated at home! So now I'm ordering a new one.

Product Rating: 5 Babyliss saves time & electricity...
Reviewer: Veronica from Miami, Florida  Fri Mar 23 2007

I have long thick hair and with regular hair dryers it takes forever to dry my hair. My arm tires out and on many mornings it's either leave with wet hair or get to the office late with dry hair. But Babyliss has solved all my problems. Hey, and less time drying also saves on the electric bill. Its a great deal all the way!

Product Rating: 4 Works great
Reviewer: Eyleen   Wed Mar 21 2007

I really liked this blowdryer. It heats up very well and is very lightweight.

Product Rating: 4 Best Dryer I've purchased
Reviewer: Nyree   Mon Mar 19 2007

This dryer is awesome. After I dried my hair with it, my hair looked like I'd had it blown out at the salon. No frizz. Worth the money. And.......it isnt THAT heavy. I dont know why people are complaining about it being heavy.

Product Rating: 3 Short Lived Hair Dryer
Reviewer: D   Thu Mar 15 2007

This hair dryer was great when I purchased it, worked well for several months and my hair looked great, but it burnt out soon after. Sparks just flew out of it and it stopped working for a while. I turned it back on a week later and it was working again but not as well, a few months later, sparks flew out and now there's no hot hair at all. I contacted the manufacturers and they were no help. If you want a hair dryer that will last longer than a year, invest in something better.

Product Rating: 4 Happy with my purchase
Reviewer: Barbara A Fernandez from Miami Beach, Fl.  Sat Feb 24 2007

Great hair dryer. Light to hold and quick to dry.

Product Rating: 5 Best Dryer I have ever owned
Reviewer: Jill from PA  Wed Feb 07 2007

I had done some shopping around and all the reviews said this was THE hair dryer to have! It is the best. I ordered it on a Wednesday and when I got home from work on Friday there it was! Love it!

Product Rating: 5 The Best!
Reviewer: Leticia from Dallas, TX  Mon Jan 15 2007

The absolute best hair dryer I have ever owned. Dries my long hair in half the time of other dryers. Lots of power.
I strongly recommend the Thermal Ionic dryer to anyone. Especially those with longer to dry hair.

Product Rating: 3 Babyliss - an okay dryer - more speed than my old dryer
Reviewer: Charmaine from Holt MI  Wed Jan 10 2007

I knew that I wanted a speedier dryer. I know that speed makes for faster drying, and smoother hair. However, I find that the top speed on this dryer only occurs on NO TEMP or cool/cold temp setting and with high speed. When you switch the temp to the warmest (of three choices), the dryer slows down. That's goofy, and unacceptable to me.

I am happy to have the higher speed though, so it is still a step-up from my twenty dollar department store version. However, I paid $60 for this and consider that too high for what I actually received.

Product Rating: 5 Love it!
Reviewer: Shaun from SoCal  Mon Dec 11 2006

This blow dryer is a wonderful investment if you spend more than 20 min. drying your hair. I no longer need to use a flat iron after I blow dry. I have used regular brand dryers for years and although my kinky curly hair is straight, it has tons of frizz so I either have to use a flat iron or use tons of gloss serum. With this dryer I just blow dry and go! I have carpal tunnel sot it is a little heavy for me but I'm getting used to it.

Product Rating: 4 Good stuff
Reviewer: amy from baltimore, MD  Sat Dec 09 2006

I have had this hair dryer for about 6 months, and I'm pretty happy with it. It dries my hair a lot faster than your standard drugstore hair dryer, saving me about 5 mins each morning, which really adds up over time. I actually use a hair dryer stand that I bought on this site so I can have both hands free to round-brush it. It leaves my hair with a lot of body, but still very straight, which is a good change from how it looks when I air dry it and then flat iron it. And variety, my friends, is the spice of life. I think a really hot hair dryer like this is worth it, but I kinda doubt there's a difference between this dryer and most of the other dryers on this site. I'm giving it 4 stars because it's not as amazing as my Solia flat iron, but really nothing else in the world is.

Product Rating: 4 Dries Fast
Reviewer: Lynne   Mon Nov 27 2006

This is a great dryer without the frizzies, however it is heavy.

Product Rating: 3 BETTER THAN YOUR AVERAGE DRYER
Reviewer: Lori from Philadelphia, PA  Wed Nov 22 2006

I LIKE THE DRYER BECAUSE IT DRIES YOUR HAIR QUICK, BUT IT'S A LITTLE HARD TO HOLD. THE HEAT BUTTON KEEPS GOING ONTO WARM WHEN I TRY TO MOVE THE DRYER AROUND. ALL IN ALL IT IS A GOOD DRYER FOR THE PRICE. WOULD DEFINITELY BUY ANOTHER BABYLISS. NOT THIS ONE, BUT A DIFFERENT ONE.

Product Rating: 5 Great Hair Dryer!
Reviewer: Wendy B from South Carolina  Wed Nov 22 2006

I love this Hair Dryer! It drys my hair fast but I also have thin, straight hair. My hair is more than half way down my back. I bought this hairdryer because of the reviews and wanted a hairdryer that doesn't damage my hair or does as little damage as possible. So far I am very HAPPY with this hairdryer.

Product Rating: 5 BaByliss hair dryer
Reviewer: Sally from Indiana  Wed Nov 22 2006

It's a great hair dryer. Works very well; my hair looks better with this dryer than with any other that I have used over the years. The only negative--it is a bit heavy; but I can handle that since it seems very reliable, sturdy, and long-lasting!

Product Rating: 4 Pleased...
Reviewer: Nicole from Philadelphia, PA  Tue Nov 21 2006

I really like my BaByliss Thermal Ionic Hair Dryer. It definitely dries my hair faster than my Conair Ionic. It also seems to make my hair shinier & smoother. While it's not feather-lite, it is not very heavy at all. For the relatively low price compared to other salon quality driers I think it is well worth it.

Product Rating: 5 Excellent Blow Dryer
Reviewer: Renee   Tue Nov 21 2006

Excellent value for the price. Top notch blow dryer for sure!

Product Rating: 5 Cut drying time in almost half!
Reviewer: Helene from Central New Jersey  Tue Nov 07 2006

This blow dryer is by far the best dryer I've ever owned. Using the Turbo function, it has cut my drying time in almost half from 20+ minutes to 10-15. The ionic feature has helped keep my hair in great shape and I haven't experienced any drying effects whatsoever. Additionally, this dryer is much lighter than any other dryer I've used and the various buttons have been easy to locate and use. Bottom line - a great blow dryer!

Product Rating: 5 EXCELLENT PRODUCT!
Reviewer: Janet   Mon Nov 06 2006

This is my first review of a product ever! I just love this blowdryer though. It dries my hair faster and makes it straighter and shinier than anything I've ever used. I am very happy.

Product Rating: 4 Great Dryer
Reviewer: Karen   Mon Nov 06 2006

This is a great dryer; I've been very pleased. It dries quickly and my hair definitely seems shinier and smoother. I have a few nit-picky comments: the buttons are placed in such a way that it is easy to accidently shut the dryer off before you are done; the power cord is really long and quite hefty; and I like to use the concentrator, but you have to keep adjusting it to different angles as you are drying your hair (maybe I'm just not flexible enough!) Like I said, those are nits, and I really am pleased with the dryer.
