Things To Keep In Mind When Buying A Hair Dryer

Hair type

Hair type plays a major role in deciding what product suits you best. If you have thick and dense hair, it is recommended that you choose a powerful travel hairdryer. If you like to style your hair every day, choose a hair dryer with a concentrator. If you have natural curls, we would recommend purchasing something with a diffuser.

Heating technology

Ionic hair dryers are popular all over the globe as they generate negatively charged ions to break down water molecules in the hair. Ceramic hair dryers on the other hand, discharge negative ions and infrared rays, ensuring little to no heat damage. Tourmaline hair dryers come with a mineral gemstone that releases electrical charge along with a combination of infrared heat and negative ion. Whereas in a titanium hair dryer, a titanium metal heats the air that goes in and out. It is much faster as compared to ionic, ceramic, and tourmaline hair dryers combined.

Noise level

If you dislike loud hair dryers, choose one that produces only 70-74 decibels or lesser. In regular hair dryers, noise levels go over 95 decibels.

Total wattage

Most noise-free hair dryers operate on 1400-1600 watts. However, many popular silent hair dryers also operate at 1875 watts.

Speed and temperature settings

Before purchasing a silent hair dryer, look for 3 speed settings (low, medium, and high) and 2 temperature settings (high and low) for ease of drying and styling. Well, that brings us to the end of our list and buying guide. All you have to do, after booking your tickets to Europe of course, is buy your perfect travel buddy. Use any of these 5 products to make your trip with the bounciest hair.

The author, Vaishnavi Kothuri, is a skin care enthusiast whose passion lies in reviewing beauty products as they hit the shelves. For this article she read hundreds of product reviews on online platforms and researched about the hair dryers that are ideal for traveling within Europe. She carefully selected products keeping in mind the safety parameters and smart heat control features. How can I use a travel hairdryer in Europe if it is not dual voltage? A voltage converter, not an adaptor, allows a user to use a hair dryer in Europe even if it is not dual voltage. Do I need a voltage converter for Europe? Not necessarily. Most popular and universal devices, such as laptops and phones, have a dual-voltage system. However, if you are insistent on carrying a large dryer for your travels, we would recommend using a voltage converter while in Europe. Do I need a travel adapter or converter? Travel adaptors allow you to change the head of the electrical equipment to rightly fit into an electrical socket. However, a converter changes the voltage to make it suitable for your appliance. If you intend on carrying different electrical appliances that do not have a dual voltage feature or an adaptor, it is helpful to carry both. What is the difference between a travel hair dryer and a professional hair dryer? A travel dryer, as the name suggests is a compact version of any bigger and professional hair dryers. The essential difference between the two is power and size. Travel hair dryers are much smaller and weigh much lesser, which automatically makes them much less powerful. However, they still serve the purpose of a hairdryer and get the job done when you are on the go. Why do we need a compact and powerful travel hairdryer? To save space and weight. Traveling with a large hair dryer can be tiring and difficult to manage as compared to carrying an easy-to-use blow dryer.
