What You Need To Know


That's the wattage that your blow dryer should be capable of. Anything less and it will take too long to dry your hair and you could damage the cuticle.

There are a few other things that you should be aware of...

  • Your dryer should come with a variety of attachments. Here are some that might be of help to you.
  • A concentrator attachment will direct the air flow where you want it to go. This is helpful when straightening your hair.
  • A diffuser attachment softens the air flow and is especially handy for enhansing the curl.
  • Finger attachments are helpful for those who need some lift in their hair.
  • Check to see that the dryer has multiple heat settings and one of them should be a cold setting. This locks in the curl.
