Anyone own an expensive hair dryer?
and if you do is it worth the extra dough?
I have seen advertisements for HD's that are nearly 200 bucks and seemingly they are stronger and dry your hair faster - I could do with that but dont know if its worth it.
Any recos appreciated.
Thanks

Re: Anyone own an expensive hair dryer?
I have the Super Solano it was about $75. I have long thick hair and this made a difference. I think it works better and also lasts longer. I can't even remember when I bought it. I used to go through the ones that you find at CVS or Ulta every few months.
I think it was totally worth it for me. I don't really know anything about the HD dryers but I love mine.

Re: Anyone own an expensive hair dryer?
I have the Elchim Uragano, based on LIF recommendations  . It was either $120 or $160  . I do not notice that it is stronger, just that the air comes out differently. I am very happy with it and I think it was worth it. I still only blow dry my hair when I have to. It's a task that I have never liked and I prefer to let my hair air dry even if it does not look as good.

Re: Anyone own an expensive hair dryer?
Totally worth it. I had a Solano for years and it recently died. I replaced it with a 2000 watt Rusk Speedfreak (yes, that's the name!!) and I LOVE IT!!!! My hair is done in about 6 minutes!

I have an Elchin Professional one and it was close to $100. Worth every penny.

Re: Anyone own an expensive hair dryer?
My sister has the Rusk Speedfreak too and I like hers, but I found that it is really heavy. That is the only bad thing I can say about it. I bought the T3 from sephora ($300) and I do notice that my hair is not as damaged and comes out pretty shiny after blowdrying.

Re: Anyone own an expensive hair dryer?
I used to have the Babyliss. I LOVED THAT DRIER SOOO MUCH! But it dies after about 4 years and it was dicontinued completely (it was about $100). Now I just bought Galaxy. This was $100. It seems to be ok. Heavy, but works good.
