Hair Styling Tools

So you have washed your hair and now you have to blow dry it.  You’ve noticed that your hair is looking more dull and frizzy and your ends are dry and splitting.  Is it the shampoo, the conditioner, the other products that you use on your hair, OR, is it the hairdryer that is actually drying out your hair?  You go to your hairdresser and you ask what can be done.  The question that arises is, “What kind of hairdryer are you using?”  You suddenly are too embarrassed to say and reply that it is just a cheap model you picked up at the local drug store.  Your hairdresser responds that it is time for you to start looking at ionic hairdryers and seriously consider buying one.  But, why should you buy an ionic hairdryer?  What does an ionic hairdryer have that your everyday run of the mill hairdryers don’t have?

Ionic hairdryers release negative ions into the airstream coming from the dryer.  The negative ions break down the water molecules in your hair into smaller particles.  This is possible due to the positive charge of the water particles attracting the negative ions to it and resulting in the water particles breaking down and evaporating.  This process cuts down the time you spend drying your hair in half.  Since you don’t have to spend as much time drying your hair, your hair will be less likely to get overheated and break, resulting in less split ends. 

Since negative ions improve the condition of your hair by breaking down the water molecules for better absorportion,  it is this absorption process that results in shinier and smoother hair.  Hydrated hair from within gives the hair a healthy glow and more volume.  The tightening or closing of the cuticle from this ionic process will curb the static electricity that causes unwanted frizz.

So…..with all of the stated benefits of an ionic hairdryer, if you don’t already own one, now is the time to buy one.   You will see that there are many ionic hairdryers in the marketplace to choose from.  They are available in all price ranges, shapes, and sizes. With so many choices, you should have no trouble finding one that is just right for you.
