Is anything wrong with my hair dryer?

There is always a lint like substance on the back by the vent....if i don't clean it out, then my dryer stops working. How can I prevent the build-up or is it just something hair dryers do?? Where does the "lint" come from?

Is anything wrong with my hair dryer?

From air. The lint is skin particles and just everyday solids that exist in the air we breathe. Plus you're using it on your hair while it's being styled and moved around, kicking up even more skin cells and such from your head.

Think about it, the end of the hairdryer is a powerful vacuum, sucking in air powerfully to blow out the other end. The solid matter it sucks in is going end up on the vent.

Your dryer might have an auto-shutoff to prevent overheating. If you don't clean the buildup regularly, a dryer can overheat.

Not much you can do about it, just keep it clean.

Is anything wrong with my hair dryer?

it comes from the air being pulled in to make hot air, you just have to clean it.

Is anything wrong with my hair dryer?

It's just the dust and dirt that accumulates on your hair dryer, it's all very normal. You should clean it after you've blow dried your hair and it has cooled down. Just swipe it with a damp paper towel. The reason it shuts off, is because the blockage over heats the little motor inside, so it cuts off your blow dryer so it doesn't break on you. If you just keep it clean you shouldn't have any more problems.

I am looking for a new hair dryer?

Someone told me thta a 1400watt pro dryer is the same as a 200watt high street dryer, does anyone know if this is true? And can anyone reccommend any decent hair dryers?

I am looking for a new hair dryer?

You can get Parlux hairdryers.These are professional hairdryers and come in wattrage up to 1700.One other thing, bear in mind that the model number is very often nothing to do with the wattage! It is very confusing. Ignore the model number and look on the box for the wattage, dont be misled. The Parlux 3000 is in fact 1540-1760 Watts, more than enough. Much more and you will risk burning hair. They come in diff colour and compact sizes .

I am looking for a new hair dryer?

i agree wth the sarah girl umm ionic seems to be the way to go less damage to uer hair.. as for street dryers... u mean handones? like in the bathrooms? i think that varies and even if the wattage is the same u can still vary temp wth a hair dryer and they ussualy come wth other tools. try jibere paris or better yet a trade secrets store near u bec even if u dont buy there bec its a bit more on the expensive side, i still feel they know what they are talking about when u ask them about things like a good hair dryer or a good buy,qaulity,value bec they cut hair too in those stores.. basically what im saying is ask them about the best type and what features u want in one and even if u dont buy it there at least when u go to another store u'll know what to look for.. goodluck.

Does anyone have that new conair infiniti hair designer tourmaline Ionic dryer?

I was wondering if this dryer really straightens the hair while it dries it at the same time. Trying to give my flat iron a rest and I hate using a brush and a hair dryer at the same time. This dryer is new I guess and is selling for $59.99. It's reddish/purple in color with some special attachment that grabs and pulls the hair straight while drying. Please let me know if this works! I want to buy one.

Diffuser on an hair dryer?

I have fine textured hair and if I use a blow dryer, my hair ends up looking fried damaged and verrrryy frizzy...if I buy a diffuser and use it will it really help? I heard it would...I usually have to let my hair air dry and so it takes so much longer to get ready...so will this help me??

Diffuser on an hair dryer?

I have really frizzy hair too and I tried using a diffuser ((after applying mousse)) and it did work...but I don't like to use it because I have naturally curly hair and the diffuser really brings them out..

I suggest using a shine balm like BioSilk to weigh down the frizz. I prefer BedHeads Headrush. Its a spray that basically does the same thing. Don't use too much or you're hair will look greasy though.

Have you tried a straight iron? I use one after blow drying to iron out the frizz and use a top notch deep conditioner such as Silk Elements MegaSilk Moisturizing Treatment. You can view it here at http://www.sallybeauty.com/shop/1215/373...

Good luck.

Speaking from experience here, I choose the deep conditioning with the straight iron. Its been the best to my frizzy mess.

do it. I bet you won't

A diffuser might help. Make sure you have a good hair dryer that is not causing extra static in your hair. Also make sure to use a round brush while drying. Brush and dry at the same time, from root to end to prevent frizzies. Also try an anti frizz serum.

Would having a good quality hair dryer make my hair look better?

I use great products in my hair but can't seem to get it too look like I just came from the salon. I was wondering if getting a really good quality hair dryer would help. The one I have was really cheap, $8 I think.

Yes, having a great hair dryer makes a heck of a difference. Never settle for the cheapest product, but those made with good heat-control settings, and other good features. Check out this article for some good choices:

Having a good hair dryer can be the difference between having frizzy hair or silky hair. It can also help whether or not your hair dries out easily or retains some of its natural moisture.

Would having a good quality hair dryer make my hair look better?

The dryer and the type of brush your using all matter's in making your hair look like you just came out the salon. The soft bristles and around brush works the best with blow drying.

In some cases I think it can make a difference. Even if you have a cheap hair dryer, sometimes the attachments that it somes with can make a difference on how your hair turns out, try using them if yours came with it.

Is using a hair dryer to relieve itching good or bad for you?

Several weeks ago, I had a case of shingles and took the antivirals, prednisone, amitryptyline, vicodin, and codein (phew!) It's been over a month now since I've had shingles, but I still have this annoying itching/tingling sensation in one area where I had the rash (I still have a lot of redness there from where the rash was.) I've tried benadryl spray; calamine lotion, and steroid creams but the only thing that gives me temporary relief is using a hair dryer and blowing hot air on the skin until it begins to hurt. It's like scratching a very deep itch and feels really good while i'm doing it. The only problem though is after I do it, the relief only lasts for a short while and then I feel the urge to do it more frequently. I wonder if this is delaying the healing of the scar tissue thus prolonging the itching/tingling? Any insight/advice would be most appreciated. Thanks!

Is using a hair dryer to relieve itching good or bad for you?

Sounds like the shingles have not completely cleared up. If it has been over a month and the reddness has not gone down i would go see you doctor. its quite possible the antiviral didnt work, they probably had you on valtrex for the shingles which usually clear them up. I would speak to the your doctor and see if another round of meds would help. no sense in being that miserable with it.

Is using a hair dryer to relieve itching good or bad for you?

Shingles can take a very long time to heal...as for using a hair dryer well i wouldnt recommend it as it produces heat which will make you feel even more itchy..perhaps some phenergan might help--hope you get better soon
