Hairdryers - Dyson, Parlux or Veoflow?!

Or any other? Apart from GHD air, which I already have & is very heavy! I’ve had it a good few years, maybe more & I’m thinking of replacing it for something more lightweight.

So is a Dyson (the most basic one) a Parlux or a Veoflow worth it? To be honest, I don’t think the GHD did anything more than my previous hairdryer. My hair is long, bit frizzy, medium thickness. Takes a while to blow dry so using the GHD is arm aching! Has anyone tried the cheaper dupes of these hairdryers?

I have the Babylis dupe and loving it so far. £89.99 from Boots. Previously had a Parlux which was great and lasted for years but it was very hot!🔥

I am an ex hairdresser and used Parlux for years as they’re generally the brand of choice for professionals. Mine gave up the ghost eventually and couldn’t bring myself to buy a replacement as they’re so expensive now, and as it was only really going to be for personal use, I downgraded to a Diva Pro. They’re still a professional make and I’ve been so happy with it. I bought my sister one for a Christmas present and she loves hers too. Mine has lasted at least 8 years now, and they’re a fraction of the price. Really couldn’t fault it. https://amzn.eu/d/06DXbGDH
