Best Hair Dryer I've Owned...
Reviewer: Mary from

My previous hair dryers were from conair & revlon. At the time I thought they functioned well, but then I decided to upgrade and buy this bad boy. My hair is long & super thick. (I once blew out a fuse at the salon when my hairdresser, at the time, decided to use 2 more stylists to blow dryer my hair since we were running late.) This hairdryer cut down the work by 1/2 the time of the others. It is a bit heavy, but its worth the time it saves me, plus it leaves my hair shiny & smooth. An added bonus is I get a bit of an arm workout while I'm at it. I've had this hairdryer for a little over a year & have had no problems yet. I would recommend this to anyone looking for an efficient & effective blow dryer.
Had it for almost 4 years

I bought this hair dryer nearly 4 years ago and I still love it. I can see how some people may say the heat is too much, but personally I hate when hair dryers don't have enough heat and/or power. This dries my hair fairly quickly and like I said, I've had it a really long time and it's still working just as well as the day I got it. It's been on many, many trips with me! Even my boyfriend loves it. Seriously, any time I stay with him he wants to use it. Great hair dryer :)
blown away

I am literally blown away by this hair dryer. It's small, but more powerful than any other blower I have ever owned. I was looking for a dryer that not only had a powerful wattage, but also a strong air flow. Highly recommend.
Outstanding Hair dryer

I bought this hair dryer from Folica over 7 years ago. My stylist had a professional model and I was very impressed. I found the Carrera model on the website. This is a most impressive hair dryer. Best ever. Drys hair quickly and seems to be shinier. This hair dryer works as well today as when I purchased it. Forgot to pack it when traveling one week and had to use the hairdryer in the hotel room. What a difference. Hair looked frizzy, dull and took a long time to dry. No question this BaByliss Carrera is a outstanding. From my view it's a 5 star hair dryer built to last.
The BEST

This is the best hairdryer I have ever owned and I've had my share. Not only does it deliver but it is quiet and the rubberized casing and grips is terrific. Besides being light (for a dryer) it so easy to hold. Its worth every penny!
Long lasting, superior hair dryer!

Before I spent the extra money on this salon quality hair dryer, I went through cheap ones (Conair, etc) that I bought at the drugstore about 2x a year-huge waste of money. This is the best hairdryer I've ever owned. The investment is worth itself several times over-mine has been in great working order for over 4 years! The button placement I agree, is annoying-I usually change the temperature accidently when I'm drying my hair. The pros outweigh that one con, for sure. Highly recommend.
Absolutely love it!

I was a bit hesitant to spend this much money on a hair dryer (I've always had cheap ones). But my hair is so thick, it takes so long to dry it everyday that I finally decided to buy a better hair dryer. I am SO happy with this dryer. I've had it about 4 months now and have had no problems with it. It gets my hair dry in about half the time of my old, cheaper model. It also makes my hair shinier and less frizzy. It's amazing how a higher quality hair dryer can make such a difference! The only complaint(s) I have about it is it's a little heavy, and the on/off switch is right where your hand grips the dryer, so I turn it off accidentally at least once each time I dry my hair. But it's worth it to have such a great hair dryer!
Love It!

This hair dryer is great. I have used it just about everyday for 2 or more years and have had no problems. Helps to straighten my un-manageable hair. I do use a curling iron or straight iron to smooth out after blow drying. Cuts down drying time. While it is a little heavy, you get used to it pretty quickly. The buttons are in a funny place but you also get used to it. Well worth the money would buy another tomorrow and would also buy it as a gift.
Amazing.

My sister first bought this product, and after seeing the effects it had on her hair, I was sold. We both have a lot of frizzy hair, her's is extremely thick and completely unmanagable. The best part is that I could sneak into her room, use the dryer and have perfectly straight hair in 10-15 minutes. Now I dont think 3 pounds is heavey AT ALL. I don't squeeze the dryer so the position of the buttons seem fine. In fact the cool shot button is perfect to get that quick shot. It does get extremely hot, as the description even says. All in all, its a great light weight product that leaves the silky and smooth.
I never thought I'd get such amazing results!

I have frizzy, curly, damaged, AND processed hair. I used to buy cheap blow dyers and iron my hair which still did not give me the results I wanted. I started with BaByliss PRO TT (Carrera 2) Tourmaline 3000 Dryer last year, in my opinion I thought it was ABSOLUTELY amazing. However, it died on me within a year and I decided to buy this blow dryer. I was shocked on how amazing my hair looked! My hair came out silky straight, it was perfect. You would never guess I have curly hair. Even my very stubborn cowlick was right on place. I couldnt believe that a blow dryer would ever do this to my hair. My friends were shocked as to how straight my hair came out and quickly. Im the only in the office on a rainy day with a perfect blow out. I no longer have the need to use my hair iron. I love that its very light (I cannot believe people say its heavy-seriously!!), has a long cord, and works perfectly amazing. 2 downsides: 1) You have to be careful when blow drying your hair since its so powerful or you could burn your scalp. I actually kept the nozzle from my other BaByliss blow dryer and it fits fine. It has openings to the side, so its not as hot. 2) I noticed that even if I did try to curl the tips of my hair it would still come out straight, maybe Ill get a curling iron for the tips. Overall, I think its a fabulous blow dryer and if it breaks, Ill buy it again.
