Gold N Hot GH2252 1875 Watt Professional Turbo Boost Ionic Hair Dryer

 (5 customer reviews)

I recently heard about "ionic technology" as it relates to hair dryers and how it cuts down on drying time dramatically, while producing shinier, smoother locks. I was definitely interested and was surprised to see the number of different models available. I selected the Gold N Hot Professional Turbo Boost Ionic Hair Dryer.

I dried my hair as usual and it did not dry any faster with this dryer than with a conventional dryer. My hair was not smoother or softer. Still wanting to believe the hype, I tried it on my two daughters' hair. Faster drying time? Nope. Smoother, shinier hair? Ha ha ha.

I gave this product two stars because it IS a nice hair dryer. It is completely covered in some sort of rubber/foam material, which means the end never gets hot to the touch. It is relatively quiet and not too heavy. BUT... that's not why I bought it. I wanted the benefits of ionic technology, which it did not deliver.

Was much better than the hair dryer I was using because it was more powerful, had more buttons, etc. But that was just because my original one was a cheapie. However, didn't dry my hair one bit faster than a "non-ionic" dryer nor did I see any difference in my hair afterward.

My old gold-n-hot dryer broke and i bought this model as a replacement since they no longer make the model i like. The speed and heat settings were fine however i was displeased with the adjustable attachment. It would not stay in place and pulled my hair out. While i was 1/4 through drying my hair, it fell off and would not attach again. I had to dry my hair with a comb which made my hair very frizzy. Needless to say, i had a very bad hair week. This dryer does not take universal attachments so now its useless to me.
