Parlux 3800 Ceramic and Ionic Hairdryer

As someone who lives in humid Sydney with semi-curly (read: feral and frizzy) hair, pre-this hairdryer my morning routine involved blow drying then straightening my hair. Fortunately given my old hairdryer blew up - this is my routine no longer! Not only is it much quicker, my hair is now much smoother and healthier-feeling. Its definitely worth it - I wish I had of bought one of these years ago.

When my 12 year old Wahl hairdryer died, I felt a little lost, as is always the way when you are so attached to something. I googled hairdryers and asked friends lots of questions before settling on this one. Turns out I have been missing out all these years, I had no idea things had improved so much. Ceramic, ionic, eco friendly ... it's just a hairdryer! Or so I thought. My long thick hair can be dried quickly, with minimal fluff and goofiness. I've actually found that I don't need to put my GHDs through afterwards to smooth it down. I was hoping to be impressed and am thrilled to be blown away.

I had been holding off getting a new hair drier for years - I have had an old Parlux since I was about 15 and it was still going strong. However I knew that it was probably singeing my hair a little and it was so heavy I avoided using it to dry my whole head (thus living with my messy wave day in day out). I saw the new 3800 on Adore Beauty for such a good price I thought what the hell! Well, haven't I been missing out! It is a beauty of a drier, SO light and SO quick at drying my hair, and straightening it with body so easily! I definitely recommend not putting it off any longer - it's one appliance that definitely needs an upgrade (who knew your hair could be so Frizz Free with this new technology!) and this model is just awesome!!
PS. the purple rocks!

I used to think I was seriously unco at styling my hair, but now, after buying the parlux, I realise it was my hairdryer that was unco not me! I was always so frustrated that I couldn't seem to achieve the same sleek and smooth style that a professional hairstylist could, no matter how intently I observed their craft I just couldn't achieve the same result at home. That was until I bought the Parlux 3800 and realised it's all about the hairdryer.

I have naturally frizzy hair and my hairdryers in the past certainly didn't help with that. Although the parlux is quite expensive it's very much the salon professional dryer you would expect. It takes less time to blow dry my hair as it's quite powerful and creates less frizz which means less styling. When I use a roller brush while blowdrying I achieve a beautiful smooth and sleek result, often doing away with a straightening iron (depending on how straight a look I'm after). I'm so happy with it. A good hairdryer is a serious investment. The parlux is worth every penny.

OMG, for 43 years I've had bad hair days, and then the Parlux 3800 arrived and my bad hair days disappeared. Seriously, I have a lot of flyaway mildly wavy hair that needs a good straight blow dry to make it look any good. My old hairdryer (which I've had for 10 years) I realise now was crap. The Parlux has good temperature and blow, great directional nozzles so that I could actually glide it down my hair like hairdressers do. Throw your old hairdryer in the bin ASAP and replace it with this one. I can't guarantee an end to bad hair days (like has happened for me) but I will guarantee the best home blow dry ever. :)

This hairdryer is fabulous! It dries my thick hair in half the time of my old dryer and doesn''t scorch it as much as other dryers can. The only drawbacks are that it''s not that attractive-looking and it isn''t as quiet as the manufacturers would like to have you think.
