hair blowers quickly dry your strands by speeding up the evaporation of water on them, using hot air generated from their heating element to pass over and through each strand and warm them. The ideal dryers have a concentrator nozzle to control airflow, a diffuser designed to define curls or keep waves intact, and an attachable comb or pick that snaps on for styling locks.
Heat Protection
Heat-styling tools such as hair blowers can expose manes to intense temperatures that dry them out and lead to breakage and split ends, damaging their structure and decreasing shine and health. Heat protectants offer another layer of defense to safeguard manes against further damage while improving shine and health.
Polymers and silicones seal each hair strand’s cuticle to allow heat to pass more slowly through it and distribute itself more evenly around every strand of hair. Keene notes that direct heat can create all manner of issues for hair, including color shift (e.g., blonde turning brassy), cuticle damage, and split ends. She stresses the importance of using protectants like dimethicone copolyol or stearoxy dimethicone spray-on formulas – for creams, she advises spreading evenly through your locks before styling.
