How does Tourmaline dry my hair faster?

Tourmaline maximizes the negative ion output and infrared heat generated delivering more conditioned, super shiny, frizz-free hair. Ions are a naturally occurring phenomenon in nature, characterized by a neutral atom becoming charged either positively or negatively. When a negative ion comes into contact with a water molecule, it atomizes (breaks up) the water molecule allowing the smaller droplets to penetrate the outer layer of the hair shaft to infuse hair with moisture and shine. This process also helps to eliminate static electricity build up in the hair during styling.

Reviewer: Minnesota Blonde from Minnesota   2009-03-14

Ionic hairdryers are harmful to your skin, if your skin behind your ears get red,inflamed, oozing, STOP using, it's from your ionic hairdryer. There should be warnings on them

great buy!
Reviewer: lindsay from maryland   2007-11-05

i use this hair dryer everyday and it doesnt dry my hair out. my hair is also very thick and cuts drying time in half compared to most dryers that i have used in the past. definitely worth what you get for the price....

one of the best
Reviewer: donna   2007-08-24

i have 2 girls ALL with very, very, very long hair. this is one of the best dryers we have bought. especially since all the girls agree -- that is a big plus. i have bought many other expensive dryers that lasted 5 to 6 months if i was lucky. this is going on a year. plus i use it and my husband everyday. it leaves your hair so smooth and it never looks dried out even in the summer with the pool and ocean.

too expensive for its performance
Reviewer: Colleen from Minneapolis, MN   2006-11-06

This hairdryer is not bad, but it in no way competes with the hairdryers in this price range. The only advantage to this hairdryer is the design of the buttons.
