I have a hair type that’s difficult to get dry/takes a long time even after being towel dried and combed, so the cheap Kmarget hairdryers overheat and shut down while half my head is still wet. Often repeatedly.
With EOFY sales on can anyone recommend a decent hairdryer that still has a reasonable budget? I’m thinking a basic workhorse under $50. No special features are really needed.
(Not really in the market for brushes or tools or things for a styling blow dry, I just need a dryer that will let me rough dry my roots with my fingers so my scalp isn’t sitting damp for a long time.)
I would try something like this, on sale at Myer for $50. Reputable hair care brand, salon motor.
Thanks, it’s on the pricey side but might last. I’ve added it to the basket to think on
