Decent Hair Dryer in Argos ... Can anyone Help??

ha-ya-said-what

Long story short have €40 in vouchers for Argos don't need anything from there & only thing I do need is a new hair dryer.

Read reviews on the UK site but the star ratings aren't great because a lot of them seem to be basing them on button placement on the dryer & cable length ... neither of which bother me! My hair is long, thick, with a wavey kink to it so I keep it straight & only thing that can calm it is the GHD, old Nicky Clarke hairdyer is a pain in the butt takes like 30-40min to dry my hair. Gonna opt for an Ionic one now seen as I have the vouchers, I'd go for a Paralux one only no family members need anything from argos to exchange the vouchers for cash with me!

Can anyone recommend one they have tried & tested from Argos or know someone with one? Don't mind having to put some more money towards it with the vouchers, just don't want to have to spend ages drying my hair!!

I got this one last week and it's great- it's ionic and ceramic!
My hair is thick and is damaged/frizzy from dyeing but this hairdryer gets it dry really fast and it makes my hair so smooth I don't need to use a straightener afterwards!

Thank you Magenta, that's exactly the kind of review & recommendation I wanted!

I've had that one for a year now, and find it good. My hair definately isn't as frizzy after blowdrying it.

The cable is one of those non-twisty ones also, so it doesn't get all tangled.

Just go for something with a wattage of 2000W, wattage is the main factor in time it takes to dry your hair, the higher the better.

Am looking for a new hairdryer also. Was hoping could get one in Dunnes Stores but alas they dont seem to stock them (in limerick anyways).

What does ceramic ionic mean?

Thanks girls, I went for the Pro Ionic one cos it has the turbo on it, happened to be near Argos this evening so popped in & picked one up. I'll give it a go in the morning now. Hopefully be able to say bye bye to Nicky Clarke!!
