Write a review about the CHI Ceramic Ionic Hair Dryer



Product Rating: 5 So far so good!
Reviewer: Linda Erickson from California  Tue Feb 26 2008

I've had this hair dryer for a few weeks, and I love it! It is QUIET. I bought it because it said it was quiet and low EMF. As long as it continues to work properly long term, I'll be glad I paid this much for a hair dryer!

Product Rating: 1 Waste of Money
Reviewer: Tonia L. Charles from Bossier City, LA.  Wed Feb 20 2008

Not only does this hair dryer suck, it sucks on ice. There is no power to it and it doesn't get very hot at all. I bought it as a package deal with the flat iron, so now I can't even return it. I would not recommend this hair dryer to African-Americans. It is clearly not for us.

Product Rating: 5 Awesome Product!!!
Reviewer: LISA HUNTER   Mon Feb 04 2008

This blow dryer is the best i have ever used. All the attachments stay on and it heats up in no time!!!


Product Rating: 5 BETTER THAN T3!!!!!!
Reviewer: Marisa   Wed Jan 30 2008

I have a T3 Tourmaline Evolution dryer and recently bought this Chi hairdryer at my local Harmon's because my T3 sounds like it's beginning to burn out in less than a year and I didn't want to be left one morning without a dryer to use. I really wasn't expecting this dryer to be as good as it turned out to be. I recalled that one my stylists used this on her clients and now I can see why. This dryer dries my hair in MUCH less time than the T3 and my hair has never looked better!!! The sound of the dryer is pleasantly low and the airflow is amazing. I highly recommend this dryer. I will always use Chi dryers from now on.

Reviewer: ABA from Miami,florida  Tue Jan 22 2008

My dryer stopped blowing hot air after only 11 months. Very disappointed.

Product Rating: 1 What a waste of $100!
Reviewer: Lisa from RI  Wed Jan 02 2008

I returned my first dryer after only 10 months of use. A replacement arrived 4 weeks later from Farouk Systems. My replacement lasted 1 month!!! Now Farouk won't replace the dryer because the original - broken dryer is out of warranty. Excuse me?? My new dryer is 1 month old. I'm done with anything "CHI".

Product Rating: 1 Shocked: No hot air after 9 months
Reviewer: sheryl from california  Mon Dec 31 2007

My dryer stopped blowing hot air after only 9 months. A $20 drug store dryer has lasted longer than this one.

I loved it when it worked but after paying top dollar, I expected more than 9 months of personal use.

Product Rating: 4 Nice dryer!
Reviewer: wingkiester from Los Angeles, CA  Wed Dec 26 2007

I like this CHI dryer, it results a shiny and bouncy hair. Plus, I noticed that the heat is more mellow than the regular 1875 dryer, it is more quiet too! I like it!

Product Rating: 1 Poor Quality
Reviewer: Zeina from New York, NY  Tue Nov 06 2007

I previously had this CHI for 3 years without a problem. When it broke, last spring - I felt I got a lot of use and was satisfied with it's value. I bought another one in April - it was defective, so I returned it and bought another. The 2nd one just recently broke down - after 6 months!!! Don't buy this CHI - they no longer stand for good quality!

Product Rating: 1 DO NOT Buy
Reviewer: Elizabeth   Thu Nov 01 2007

I have been through three dryers since February 2007. It is only October 2007. We use the dryer twice per day. What a waste of money. Now it only blows cold air. I think there should be a recall. JUNK!

Product Rating: 1 DON'T SPEND THE MONEY!
Reviewer: Debbie Apple from Nashville, TN  Mon Oct 22 2007

WHEN i PURCHASED MY CHI, they told me I HAD A HAIR DRYER FOR LIFE. NOT SO! It lasted (ONE YEAR).

Product Rating: 1 Don't buy this one you will be very disappointed
Reviewer: Heather   Fri Oct 05 2007

Does not get hot and takes to long to dyer your hair. Go to walmart and get one before purchasing this one... Save your money..

Product Rating: 4 much better than average hair dryers but still room for improvement
Reviewer: caroline from CO  Fri Sep 14 2007

I found the hair dryer to be amazing with drying my hair without unnecessary poofiness. My hair feels softer and healthier. But the power buttons could be placed somewhere else. I turn it off by accident with the current location. And it seems to overheat as average hair dryers do. But it is by far the best hair dryer i have ever owned. def worth the money!

Product Rating: 4 This hair dryer is above average..
Reviewer: Josephine Braun from Tucson, Az.  Wed Sep 05 2007

I've had this dryer for about 2 years now. It's been doing a pretty good job from having left Tredici Salon to Mark Speers Salon. My friend Marla has the Chi Rocket and that dryer dries the hair faster. It does cost a bit more I wish that one was available at the time I bought the Turbo. But it hasn't done me wrong yet. When working as a stylist we have to have the best and highest quality tools that are available.

Product Rating: 1 Blows only cold air and diffuser pops off
Reviewer: Annmarie Reilly   Sun Aug 26 2007

I have had this product for a few months and the diffuser always pops off, the cord gets tangled, and it now only blows cold air. I am a hair dresser and will not recommend this hair dryer to anyone. What a waste of money!

Reviewer: Laura from Granbury, Texas  Tue Jul 31 2007

Loved using my chi dryer, but it only lasted about 1.5 years. It now only blows cold air, which does not do me much good, and I'm out $150! I wanted to replace it with another but the retailer would not give me a discount on the dryer. I was afraid of it not lasting, so I purchased another brand.

Product Rating: 1 TOO HOT!!!
Reviewer: Barbara from NJ  Wed Jul 25 2007

I bought this dryer because I have very dry,curly hair.The first time I used it I could smell my hair burning.It is so hot that it burned my hand.I can't believe I spent this much money on a piece of junk!!!!!

Product Rating: 1 CHI BLOWDRYER DEFECTIVE-DO NOT BUY THIS ONE!
Reviewer: Dawn from AZ  Mon Jul 23 2007

I bought a Chi Dryer, loved it at first. Bought it because my T3 Tourmaline, which got great product reviews, blew up on me after 8 months. I blow my hair 3 times a week, and it's shoulder length. I take good care not to drop dryers on the floor. So, bought that first Chi, and after 4 months it started smoking. Got ridiculously hot, and made noises. Returning it for warranty meant I'd be without it for months, so I exchanged it at the store for a new one. Second one died in 3 months. Started blowing cold air and making noises. A glutton for punishment, I exchanged it once more, thinking maybe it was a bad batch in the store's shipment. Third one died in a record 4 weeks! Remember, I only blow my hair 3 times a week, if that. This one starting making noise and smoking, and would only work burning scalding hot air through the nozzle, on low. Went to store and exchanged it for a Solano. I'll keep you posted. In the meantine, let my lessons serve you well: DO NOT BUY ANY CHI DRYERS. P.S. I have the flat iron from CHI and it's incredble. A real workhorse...go figure.

Product Rating: 3 THESE DRYERS HAVE DEFECTIVE SWITCHES
Reviewer: dae   Fri Jul 06 2007

DEFECTIVE DRYERS!!!!!!

when the dryer blows ONLY COLD AIR
there's lil flat metal pin next to end of the nozzle, push it down with a pencil and it'll blow hot air again, these dryers are VERY cheapy made, but no worries

If you already bought one, head over to radio shack, get a Soldering iron kit about $10, and solder the broken loose connection on, it's really easy and simple.

I fixed 4 Chi dryers that blows only cold air.

If you have any problems email me at distantarray (at) aim.com and i'll work you thorugh it, i'll post a video on youtube later.

Product Rating: 5 Fabulous ...
