Can a Hair Dryer Give You Instant Beachy Waves?

Have you seen this blow dryer yet?

Available at pretty much every drug store or big box store, this is a pretty unique blow dryer actually spins your hair around as it dries, creating waves. (See? That's my newly darker hair spinning around). The process does take a while. It takes a few minutes per "chunk" of hair, and the results are best if you use about 1" pieces at a time. Simply drop them into the chute and let it spin until mostly dry. My entire head takes about 15-20 minutes.

The end result is hair that looks like this. In person, it really looks like very loose dread locks almost. I let it finish drying on it's own, then finger comb through my hair. The result really is beachy waves that look fantastic and last for a long time!

While the initial time investment (15-20 minutes) is well over my normal time allotment in the morning to style my hair, I do like the results. I've been doing this on the weekends or if I have something I'd like wavy hair for.

  2. Thanks for posting about this! Your pictures are great - I have been pondering getting one of these dryers, but wondered what the end result actually looked like. Do you think it would work on shoulder lenth hair?

  3. Wow this is cool! Did your hair stay like this all day? My hair is straight and doesn't hold any curl. I wonder if this will work for me?

  13. I just picked up curlers...an item that I've avoided since highschool but I love the loose curl look. This looks really interesting! Although, for me as well...it could only be for the weekends since I love to sleep in as much as possible during the work week. Thanks for posting about this!

  16. Have you used this dryer without the attachment? How did you like it?
    I have sort of wavy hair that I try to make curly with my diffuser, wondering if this might work better to boost the wave?

  17. Good product it seems,but is that really like what you say..

  18. This is intriguing. I don't blow dry my hair because hairdryers straighten it. I prefer the wavy look my hair gets when I air dry it. On cold winter mornings, though, wet hair causes me to freeze over! (Yes, I'm too vain.) Do you have a picture of the totally finished hair, after it's dried and you've finger combed it?

  19. WOW!!! So pretty. 20 minutes does seem like a lot but, just back from the beach waves are totally worth it.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Wow! Hmmm - never seen anything like this before. Thanks for posting!

  21. I'd love to see what your hair looks like after the finger comb.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I'd love to see a photo of you after you've combed it through. Really interesting product. Will have to look it up.

  23. I need this blow dryer!

  24. Oh my gosh that is completely amazing!! Thank you so much for sharing this!

  25. Love this hair dryer. I like to wear it not even combed though, but take smaller chunks and only drop about half the hair shaft down the dryer, so that the top of my hair dries mostly straight and then curls around my ear and down. It's more waves than curls but I really like it. And this allows me to cut down on the drying time to about 10-15 minutes since the top of my hair's still mostly damp and I just let it air dry
