HOT TOOLSPro Artist 1875W Turbo Ceramic + Ionic Hair Dryer | Fast Dry, Lightweight

Short of getting a Dyson hair dryer, I really wasn't sure what to get for my salon work. The requirements were that it had to actually get hot, it had to have an easy-to-use cold shot button, it had to have controls that I wouldn't accidentally change the setting of through normal handling, and it should be well enough made that I not have to get a new dryer every 6-12 months. After getting Amazon search blindness, I finally settled on the HOT TOOLS Professional 1875W Turbo Ceramic Rainbow Hair Dryer.Sure, the rainbow accent matches my shears, but what really drew me to this dryer was the brand. Hot Tools has been around a while, and I would expect this item to be fairly durable. It has a 7 year warranty, but I haven't really seen what that claim process looks like. As it is, the unit is lightweight, but feels like it has good build quality. The soft-touch/sueded texture feels nice to the touch, but may not wear well over time. The positioning of the temp and speed controls is great. While the cold shot button is placed really well, I wish it were kind of concave, instead of convex. The air gets sufficiently hot, and dries hair quickly. Oh, and I LOVE the rainbow trim. The dryer overall is gorgeous. At 8' the cord is great for a salon station, though it may be a bit much for a small bathroom.As far as the value proposition of this dryer goes, I think it's quite good. The unit works well, has good controls, and seems to be built to last. Sure, there are cheaper hair dryers, but how many of those do you need to buy before you realize that you should have just bought a better, more expensive one, in the first place? Highly recommended

I purchased this to replace another one (I dropped it too many times!). To my surprise it works just as well and is way quieter than the cheaper conair I was using as a backup. My kiddos have sensory issues and I can now do my hair and sometimes theirs without the ear clutching and freak outs when they hear it. Light weight, reasonable dry time, good hand feel. I love the black/rainbow color I picked:) it fits my “aesthetic”. Would buy again and again, it’s a trusty work horse that does its job!

Great blower

This a very light hair dryer. Excellent choice.🇺🇸

Finally! A reasonably priced hair dryer with a WORKING diffuser (it actually has holes to direct the air to your roots) and tools that actually snap on correctly. I'm not sure why so many hair dryers suck these days, but I sent back 2 others before finding this one.I've used it several times now and it's great. Be warned it is VERY loud- even for a hair dryer, but other than that- it dries quickly, the attachments actually fit, and I'm cautiously optimistic it will last for many years. If you're trying to find the best option without getting the cheapest thing or an overpriced Dyson- this is it.

I had a conair for years and was looking to upgrade. I noticed a lot of salon professionals use this brand hot tools. This one caught my eye and so i started shopping around comparing prices. This is a 60$ hair dryer! And the sale price on amazon is the best price you can get it at right now. It is very light weight which is a big deal, the quality is insane! You can tell it is good quality!! I use for myBlowouts.

Love this hair dryer! The heat is so even and it dried my hair very quickly! No frizz. Just glossy, soft and effortlessly dry hair!

I bought this believing that an ionic dryer would smooth my hair, making it less frizzy & more shiny. This dryer does the opposite - it seems to be sucking the moisture out of my hair, making it far frizzier and adding brittle volume. My stylist said ionic dryers are a marketing trend and strongly recommended a drying brush to smooth & straighten so I've ordered one of those instead. Sadly, too late for me to return this one so I'm out $60.
