I have curly hair so a regular blow dryer won't work. I just lightly towel dry my hair after my shower and put a little leave-in conditioner in it, then sit down under my Hot Tools dryer for ten minutes while I lotion up my feet and read a morning devotional. It's really a nice way to start the day! Ten minutes gets my hair almost dry, dry enough that it is totally dry by the time I leave the house about 45 minutes later. I'm really very happy with this product, and it was a great price.

I didn't purchase this from Folica (I'm in Canada and the shipping charges would have been excessive) but I did use Folica.com to research bonnet hairdryers, and the glowing reviews here all pointed me in this product's direction. Basically I wanted the closest thing I could get to the classic hard-bonnet dryers of the '60s, and this item seemed to fit the bill. (I would *love* an actual vintage dryer, but I've never found one in a thrift shop and again, shipping charges would negate whatever bargain I might find on eBay.) It works just like the old Lady Sunbeam my mother had, and dries my roller sets in about 45 minutes or so--though I don't set my hair sopping wet, just lightly dampened with setting lotion, and the medium setting is about as hot as I can stand. It must be pretty well built--one of the handles on the box broke while I was carrying it home, causing me to drop it on a subway platform, but I don't see any signs of damage and it's been working just fine. I only wish they used a nicer grade of plastic with a shiny finish, just so it'd feel even more like a classic dryer of yesteryear--but the appearance does not detract from its performance.
Great Deal!!!

Great for Roller Setting, doing hot treatments, demi-colors processing. It definetly won`t blow dry your hair flat. But that's not what's meant to do. I loved it.
Great for African American hair!

This dryer is perfect for the smoothest, bounciest wrap you ever had! Delivers great results every time. In fact, I do not have to bump my hair nearly as much as I would with the traditional hand held dryer.

This prodct is hard to adjust and does not dry hair on your neck.
Exactly what I was looking for.

I am completely satisfied with this dryer. It is exactly what I was looking for. I was slightly concerned by the comments that said the hood was too small to accommodate rollers (the only reason I was buying it and my rollers are large) but there was no problem for me. I can see that there is an issue with completely dring the rollers at the nape of my neck but I just move my head around (tilt it forward, to the left, to the right) and it is fine. If I knew how to divide up my hair onto the rollers I wouldn't ever need to go to the salon again. Great price, great product.
Highly recommend this dryer and site!

I ordered it on a Tuesday night and received it by Friday. I've used it daily for the past month and it works great! I set it on medium and it's quite warm and dries my hair in 10 minutes. I highly recommend both this dryer and site!!

I want to thank everybody for taking the time to write reviews, this is my first bonnet hairdryer and didn't know which brand to buy. Well the reviews are right. This is the best one out there, buy it you won't regret it.

I love this hair dryer! The 154 holes (vents) dry my thick, medium-length hair in an hour on medium and the hood is large enough inside for my jumbo rollers. I like the 4 choices of drying temps. (cold, low, medium and high) and I use it 3-4 times a week. The hood can be adjusted but not the height of the dryer. It arrived shortly after I ordered it. Only complaint: it is noisy when it is turned on and when it is turned off.
This is the only hair dryer to own!

Seriously - if you use a hair dryer at all, and it's not this one you're really missing out. This dryer is powerful, quiet and incredibly compact and easy to use. I sit it on the dining room table, turn a chair around and presto, instant salon. I bought one of these about 21 years ago, and just recently the cord wore out. I was thrilled to find a replacement on folica.com. Thanks so much.
Wow!! did not imagine that this hair dryer was going to be that good!!!!!

It seems to work the same as the ones at the salon, which I know are a lot more expensive. I use this one to deep condition my long hair at home. It saves me money and I can purchase the best quality conditioner instead of whatever the salon is supplying.
Very Pleased

I chose this product and this company because of the on-line reviews, With thick, kinky, graying hair--and not much patience to sit a long time--I wanted a powerful dryer. It is that, as well as easy to set up and lightweight. I am thoroughly satisfied.
Very happy with purchase

First time I ordered from site. Very pleased with service and received item quickly. As far as dryer, I am very glad I ordered it. It dries my hair quickly and I am still experimenting with it. The hot setting is HOT! Air circulation is even and it is very easy to pack up and store. Worth the money!
Best i have ever used!

I kind of liked this dryer but it was uncorfortable to use. You have to find a table to put it, then something else to get the right height. I also found that my big roller didn't fit it so I had to move to get my hair completely dry. I returned this product and order the babyliss NON table dryer (let's see how it works...)
A great product.

It's always good to "get what you pay for" and that is how I feel about my new hair dryer. It is convenient and easy to use and works just like the driers at the beauty shop.
