Hairdryers again - bear with me - fine hair

7 replies

Ok I know it's been done before... but looking for help
My Parlux has died - not getting another of these as not impressed.

I have longish hair (past shoulders but above bra strap), it's fine but I have a lot of it - motel straight but has a bit of a wave and I dry my hair every day.

Had thought about Dyson but not sure I'm willing to pay £300.

An thoughts on GHD dryers or others plus I'm confused as to whether I should go for a Big Hair or sone sort of styler in addition to ?

Thanks for help

I thought about a Dyson but wasn't prepared to pay that much for a hairdryer. I have fine, straight hair and like the GHD a lot. It is much better than it's bog standard predecessor. I have no idea whether it is better than a Parlux, though, as I have no experience of those.

I have loads of fine hair too and I use a cheap £20 babyliss dryer to get it mostly dry then a big hair to style it/dry it properly, since Ive been using the big hair Ive had lots of compliments and often get asked if I've just had it done as it looks like a salon blow dry with about 5 mins of effort Grin

The Dyson is worth every penny.

My hair was starting to look awful (very fine) and after using the dyson even once it’s completely transformed how my hair looks and feels. I wish I’d got one ages ago.

I’ve got a Dyson too and my hair does look so much better with it.

I had a parlux and a babylis salon one but found them both really heavy compared to the Dyson.

DH got me my Dyson for Christmas, don’t know if I could ever have justified that spend myself.

I’ve also used the GHD ones and would need to use a styler of some sort too but with the Dyson I can get a bouncy blow dry look and don’t need any straighteners, wands etc.

My hair is fine, curly, holds a lot of water and there’s a lot of it!

My GHD Aura is fab, I have fine hair - a lot of it. I use a Dyson regularly because the spinning studio go to has them as installed hairdryers. I can't see much difference between my GHD and the Dyson, but my hair is fine, with a wave, quite long (past shoulders) and blunt cut, but it can get frizzy. Not with the GHD.
