GOOD but BAD

I love this dryer. It dries my hair really fast, leaves it shiny, frizz-free and healthy looking... BUT... the first one I bought Broke, I turned it on and it started to smell like something was burning... So, I bought a new one (since i lost me receipt from sephora and they did not want to replace it). So the new one worked well... FOR 2 MONTHS!!! Until it started not to blow air but make a sound. I dont know what happened, when i turn it on, it sounds on but no air was coming out!!! So, here I go again, trying to replace it and Sephora told me to contact T3. I did, and they sent me a bunch of forms to fill out and tons of requirements, and they want me to mail the dryer to them so they can diagnose the "problem" with a check so that they can mail it back to me... Bottomline is, it is such a hassle!!! This works really well but what ever happened to QUALITY!?!?!?
Awesome hairdryer

I have owned a CHI and T3, and this hairdryer tops them all. My hair looks extremely healthy, and stands up to humid weather better than ever before. The dry time is amazing. Definitely recommend.
LOVE IT

i read a lot of reviews... this is a great hairdryer. i have always bought cheaper ones, for $40. but decided to splurge after my last one died. and i notice the difference with this one. it takes half the time for my hair to dry, even when soaking wet. and it dries with a nice shine, soft, and less frizzy. it dries my hair like my hairdresser does. it doesn't get too hot or seem to burn my hair. it also is very light weight. the cool button is easy to use. i've only had it a month, but no problems at all. worth every penny.

Bought this dryer in November of 05. The power switch wore out last month (Aug 07). Only occasionally switches on to the low speed. Unacceptable for a $200 dryer.
Excellent Hair Dryer!

I bought this hair dryer after pondering it for awhile. I usually don't dry my hair to avoid damage and flyaway frizz. This dryer makes my hair shiny and even the old colour on my ends shiny! The dryer is very quiet, super light and doesn't whip your hair around. You can actually dry your hair using a brush without the dryer whipping so fast off the brush! I have sleek shiny smooth hair now!
the fan broke off

I just bought this barely about 3 months ago and it's not working anymore. The inside fan broke off and just made a noise when turned on, no air blowing. I had this registered so I need to send it to the manufacturer. What irritates me is I can't return it to where I bought it from, so I would have to pay for shipping and then return shipping. The co. should at least pay for the return shipping since the product was defective. I should not have bought this, it's not worth the price.

I was concerned about buying this expensive item from a "non-authorized" seller. When I received it, the box was not in its original condition (not originally sealed, no serial number tag on the dryer) I was concerned that I had purchased a second hand item. However - the dryer does work great and so far no problems. After the 30 day Folica warranty I know I will be out of luck if something goes wrong with it - but it was worth the risk to save $50 over every other price I looked at.
Does not burn the hair, hair is more smooth and does diminish drying time (although not significantly).
I should have got this years ago

first of all I want to say I have a lot of hair long thick hair!. straight/a little wavy. it takes me 30+ minute to dry up my hair.everytime I go to the salon the ladies there always get real tired drying my hair. so you know how much I'd rather not wash it =P.I decide to invest in this t3 dryer, after a friend of mine got it and her hair look soo shiney thougout 1 yr of owning the t3. so I think its a safe choice to get this that if it doesnt dry up fast enough for me at least it should get me that radiant shiney look. I got it last week and tried it right away. OMG!! it dry my hair in 5 minute!! by 3.5 minute it was all dried up I took 5 minute to styling and blow dry it straight. I was soo pleased and amazed I tested it out with a timer 3~4 times now. it works soo good!. its light, and since I'm not a winter person I didn't mind the heat beside it has a cool setting. if your concern that the other ratings says its too hot, the trick is to shake the dryer while drying your hair like how the salon does it. its so cute with little rhinestone design on it. It is probably the most satisfying beauty product I have ever bought. Now I know why its soo pricy. it really is well worth the money. If you have lots of hair and struggle to dry it fast while not overdrying and frizz the hair GET THIS! my bf and friend had instantly realized my hair look shiney and a soft clean blow dry look, they thought I use some hair mask or oil, and all I did is change my hair dryer! Im soo happy with this product that I have to write a review for it!
Great dryer

I love this dryer. I have stubborn natural wave, and now I can finally make my hair do what I want in the way my stylist does. (She has the same dryer, but paid lots more!) The only drawback is that when you clutch the handle, the on/off gets hit turning the dryer off. This could easily be fixed in a future model. I often tote my dryer to the gym and greatly appreciate it's light weight. Great purchase!
Terrific dryer

I give this product 5 stars. I have thick, curly hair and it dries my hair in 15 minutes. It is very comfortable, in that it's light weight, and I'm quite astonished by the results. I still have to use products and flat iron, but that is accomplished in only a few minutes.
I recommend this drier to anyone who has problem hair.
Not as good as the buzz…

I wasn't thrilled, did dry hair faster but hair felt flat, no volume. Dryer air was weak, not enough power. Also, the on/off switch was in a bad spot, kept hitting into the off postion, very frustrating. The onlu good thing it was much quieter that others. Not worth $$$.
good

this dryer is very light and quiet and does get really hot. its so light and quiet that you almost feel like its not working but it is! my hair comes out just as soft as if i'd flat ironed it. i use it with the monster vent brush and it works great. my hair feels less dry and crunchy. i have wavy/curly hair and it straightens is pretty well. i think i was more impressed with the solano dryer though, but i was afraid to get it because of the bad reviews on it burning out so quickly. i like this dryer but am no obsessed. it could def be cheaper too.
Well worth the extra money

With the possible exception of buying my misting curling iron, this may be the best money I've ever spent on my hair. I have fine, naturally super-straight hair--not fashionably straight, but flatly, bodylessly straight, without so much as a bend in it. Since I began using the T3 with a round styling brush, my hair has bounce and body that lasts through all but the most extreme humidity. I have the hair I always wanted! Yes, the T3 is pricey, but I feel better about my hair than I have in a long time, and the T3 cuts drying time, too.
Love it!

Lightweight and Fast Drying - Worth the Money

I have had this for 5 months and it hasn't broken down. I used Solano dryers before - this one is much lighter and dries faster. If you have to wash and dry your hair every morning, it's a no brainer, it's totally worth $150. Buy it and pity the rest of the world who still use ordinary hair dryers! I only wish the travel version isn't so flaky - consumer reviews say that the travel size one is totally hopeless and breaks down. This full size one hasn't given out on me yet and I use it everyday.

I really enjoy the weight of this hair dryer, very light. The dryer works good, my hair is smoother and less harsh feeling after drying. Not sure if it drys hair any faster.
I've always used Super Solano's although they are much heaver in weight and probably result in more frizz.
The problem is that I don't have as much body in my hair when using the T3; it feels flatter than the final results with the Super Solano. I will continue using it until I get tired of the lack of body and yes, it probably is healthier for my hair.
Love it!

I thought it was a lot of money to spend on a hairdryer. But it is truly worth it. It is much quicker and my hair has less fly-aways.
LOVE IT!

I, like many others, had SERIOUS reservations about spending $150 on a hair dryer. I LOVE my T3. I have very thin and fine hair and used to use a serum to tame my flyaways - not anymore. I'm almost upset that I'm wasting the expensive serum I have left cause I don't need it anymore. ALMOST. : )
As with most things in life, you get what you pay for. The T3 is worth every penny.
Amazing Blow Dryer

Any of the T-3 blow dryers are awesome. This dryer is so light weight and closes the cuticle to smooth the end result its amazing. It is pretty quiet compared to the stariotype blow dryer. My sister even noticed a difference in her hair after using this product. I use a Chi blow dryer at home and it is loud but does somewhat of the job. When I bring the T-3 Featherweight home, we ALL notice a difference! You won't regret this purchase! The price is worth it!
Great Product

I have had this blow dryer for 3 years now, and it works just great. I used to have a Solano which I loved, and the motor on it burned out after 3 years. I got the T3 and it is far far better. It is so light, it is unbelievable, and it's perfectly hot. I have curly hair which I straighten, and when I am without my T3, I really miss it and realize how great it is. I see the warranty warnings about this product, and fortunately I have not had the need to use it, since mine has worked just fine for many years. It's the BEST.
