BLOW DRYER

Is there a blow dryer that is better for short, fine, thin hair? I'm looking to buy a new one. Thanks

@shiningstar I don't know of a dryer that's specified for actual hair type. I use a Martino Cartier that I like very much. You might find that a hot air brush suits you better, but you likely will need to use some kind of styling product too like a mousse or styling spray. I found a hot air brush on Amazon that's pretty good. I think it might be a John Frieda.

I agree that I have never seen a blow dryer specifically designated "for short, fine hair."

However.... I have fine chin-length hair and if I'm not reading something into your question that you didn't intend...... then I would suggest you look for a dryer with a lower wattage (around 1000) and a "cool shot" button. Fine hair drys faster, and gets damaged faster, so you need to be careful with how long the strands are subjected to the heat of a styling tool. By going with a lower wattage you can "work" the curling brush more and obtain the style you're looking for without blasting the strands with all that heat.

I have shorter, fine hair and love my T3 blow dryer. It's fast and seems to be easier on the hair. I have very few tangles when I'm done. I don't know of a blow dryer that is made for specific hair type but this one works for me.

@JeanLouiseFrench I use this John Frieda brush. Love it

I have a Babyliss Nano "Bambino". After my hands became useless from arthritis it's the only one light and small enough for me to use. They are sold everywhere online. I think I got mine from amaz for around 60.
