Well, color me SURPRISED, lol!

I have naturally VERY curly, frizzy "ethnic" hair (for lack of a better term) that I relax, color & BKT about every 3-4 month. It's also about bra strap length. I've used every blow dryer imaginable- T3, Sedu, Solano, BaByliss, etc.

I gave up on my search for the perfect blow dryer years ago, and became a proponent of "it's the technique, NOT the tools," Well, I WAS WRONG, OKAY?!?

This blow dryer (1) took a full 10 minutes off my drying session and (2) left my hair feeling like I had done a deep conditioning treatment (I hadn't). Seriously, my hair was soft, silky, & healthy feeling, I wouldn't have believed this if I hadn't experienced it.

This dryer has ionic generator and an AC motor (they last longer than DC motors, but tend to make the dryers heavier, however, the Portofino is NOT any heavier than, say, a drugstore blowdryer). It also comes with FOUR attachments- three concentrator nozzles and a finger-diffuser.

One thing you should know, if you believe that a blow dryer has to get super hot to dry your hair well (a fallacy)- this dryer isn't *super* hot, but the air flow and ionic technology really do make up for any lack of heat. For me, this is a blessing for my hair, since I like to spare my hair the super-hot tools when possible.

I have two other professional hair dryers that won't be seeing the light of day for a LONG time!
