Designed to be the perfect travel companion, it is lightweight and comes with a folding handle so it is small enough to fit into your bag whilst on the move. Syd Hayes, Session Stylist to the stars and Babyliss Ambassador looks for a few things when choosing a hair dryer. "Firstly it has to be powerful, there are lots on the market that just don’t have enough power to get through every different hair type. Secondly, heat is also important. I don’t want to overheat hair, but you need to know it's there. And thirdly the weight of the hairdryer is key. I go to the gym for heavy weights I don’t want to be lifting them all day with my dryer." Hayes says. You might have spotted the cool setting on your dryer and never bothered using it because maybe it didn't make sense to you. But the cool shot is actually like popping the cherry on top of the cake - it seals the hair cuticle, leaving hair looking shiny.

Wattage vs weight: Wattage refers to the power of your dryer and usually the higher it is, the heavier the hair dryer is. If you’ll mainly be using it to style, opt for a more lightweight model. And consider how often you’ll be carrying it around (in a gym bag, on a weekend trip etc.), while also bearing hand luggage weight restrictions in mind — every gram counts in a carry-on!

The truth is that while most hair dryers can look very similar, they weren't all created equal, and some will be better suited to your hair type and particular needs.
