Conair 098DR Ionic Turbo Styler 1875 Watt, Metallic Blue

The ionic dryer works to keep hair shiny and healthy. Clouds of negatively charged ions neutralize positive charges that are in the air and reduce static electricity which causes flyaway frizzies and dulls hair. Hair becomes shinier and more manageable.

Customer Reviews

power packed punch!
I had been shopping around for a while, when I found this little gem! I have really long, thick hair that took 20-30 minutes to just get to the damp stage with my old dryer. With this Conair Ionic dryer, I can towel off my hair, put in my styling products and blow the majority of the wetness out in about 4 to 5 minutes. I leave my hair a bit damp so that it will air dry.

I think the thing that sold me was that you have three heat settings, hot: which is pretty hot, warm, and cool, which I prefer. The speeds are high, low, & off. I would have liked for it to have a diffuser attachment included, but ehh... no biggie.

I'd agree that it is a bit heavy, but as long as I'm not blow drying it straight, then it's not that big of a deal. I've been using it about a month, and I do seem to notice that it is not as frizzy and dry, but that could be in part to that I've been using it on cold, for just a few minutes, whereas, with my old dryer, it was HOTHOTHOT for 20 minutes.

I would definately buy this one again!

quiter than my old dryer but dries just as fast
When I got this dryer it was much quieter than my old one which I thought meant it wasn't as powerful. However after a side by side test I discovered that it blew as well it's just got a quieter motor. It dries my mid back length hair really fast. I like the fact that the heat settings are on a seperate switch than the speed settings because my little girls don't like as much heat when drying thier hair as I do.

does what it's supposed to do
I'm content with this dryer. I needed a new one, and this one looked cool in the picture. I'm curious if the ion thing will make a difference in my hair over time. As the picture shows, it's not too frizzy after 2 uses, will see what the future brings. My hair is naturally curly but in my fifties (aaughh!) it's learned to frizz out. I just blew it dry with no styling tools, did the little surfer flip-of-the-head I learned in high school, and that's that. I wish I'd taken a before picture, but oh well. Live with it.
And besides, this would be cool for playing radar speed-detector cop, or space alien with disintegrator gun!
