Parlux

I need a new hairdryer. A few years ago I promised myself a Parlux when my current dryer needed replacing.

If you own one and are happy with it can you tell me which model and most important, where you bought it, I've seen them on Amazon but I don't trust it for this type of purchase.

I've got one - my last one lasted for 15 years. I have also bought them as Christmas gifts for my 2 daughters last year, as I know they are robust and will last them a long time. DDs both have the Alyon model as it comes in loads of colours, and I have the 3500 ceramic ionic. I couldn't tell you the difference between them, they're all the same to me! I bought all of them from parlux.co.uk.

I have the Alyon ,I think I've had it 10 years,it's excellent and better than the Dyson x100 imo.

I have the 3200 in chocolate spice (I think that's the colour) kind of shimmery cooper. I got mine direct from Parlux.

Thanks everyone!

I stayed in a hotel a few years ago that had the 385 Light in the rooms, it was amazing. I need a diffuser with it so unsure whether to go for the 385 or a newer model that fits the new bigger diffuser. Any experience with the diffusers?

I bought a diffuser for mine directly from Parlux as there's one that fits most of their dryers

I have the 385 powerlight and it has been great, still going strong after 5 years. Much better than my old Revlon!

Not much help with the diffuser I'm afraid as I have straight hair, but I know Parlux sell all the different diffuser types on their website - might be worth asking them direct about the compatability.

I'm on my second one... I think my first one lasted me about 10 years! They're great hair dryers.

I've had a 3200 in red for about eight years and it makes me happy every time I use it!

I’ve got the 385 Powerlight model. Had it about 7-8 years, all good. My hairdresser recently told me his Parlux has just died after nearly 10 years of salon use!

Whiskeyandkittens · 08/10/2024 17:35

My Parlux has outlasted two Dyson ones and I've gone back to it as my main dryer now. I'm not at home so can't check the model, just marking my place and will update later!

FluffyMitt · 09/10/2024 13:31

Thanks everone. I think I will go for the Advance model. Just waiting for pay day now!
