Remington Hairdryer (Review is also on Ciao Jenny76)

Continuing on from my hair straightener review I am going to now write a review on my hair dryer which was bought for me as a Mothers day gift from my kids. Well I say from the kids but my partner actually was given the hint from me when I told him daily that my old one was no working well. I gave him the brief that I wanted a powerful dryer with different settings, I also explained that I did not need one with a diffuser well that left him baffled lol.


When Mothers day came around I acted surprised when opening my present but was really surprised to see that he had chosen a very stylish hairdryer with great features. I had got a Remington which was the brand I was after at is was very powerful at 2000Watts and had three heat settings operated by a switch on the handle and two speed settings all of which are clearly marked and even though the instructions are very detailed they are not really needed at all.

Features:


Super fast 2000w dryer
3 heat settings
2 speed settings
Centrifugal fan
Ion emitters
Fast air concentrator
Quiet fan
Cool shot
Hang up loop
1.8m cable


The next morning I plugged it in after having a shower and tried it out, it was very powerful and my hair was dry in about 5 minutes on the top speed and maximum heat. The cool shot is a nice touch which just sends a short burst of cool air when it gets a bit hot on the head. I found that drying the majority of my hair with the high setting then slowing it down to style was best leaving my hair perfect and just needing the straightners to finish off.


The hairdryer itself is very nice to look at in chrome with a black head nozzle which can be adjusted to change the direction of the air flow. The selection switches are very smooth and easy to recognize because of the self explanatory symbols. If there was a down side I would say it is the heat does transfer to the outside of the dryer very quickly so without careful operation you could burn yourself, I certainly don’t let my daughter do her own her with this dryer. One the up side it is very effective and does the job quickly and with very little fuss leaving my hair feeling surprisingly soft and manageable considering the heat being applied.


The dryer has a very handy 1.8m power cord which is perfect for me as in the bedroom the socket is some way from my mirror, also the dryer is surprisingly quiet when running. I would certainly recommend this hairdryer but for adult use only because of the heat that is generated and risk of burns if misused. I have been told from my husband that it cost £29.99 but after looking on the internet I have seen it available for as little as £19.99 so even more of a bargain. I hope this review has been of interest to you and thank you for taking the time to read my reviews.
