Characteristics and description of professional hair dryers. Professional hair dryers: pros and cons, brands, choices. Why do you need a cold blower button in professional hair dryers

01.07.2020

Not all girls can go to the salon to get their hair styled or cut. Some simply do not have enough time, others save their money. Naturally, the idea of buying a hair dryer and trying to learn how to style your hair immediately comes to mind. Millions of women around the world think that way, and most can style their hair as well as a professional in salons. So, buying a hairdryer is a great solution, but the logical question is: which one?

There are several types of hair dryers on the market now: professional and household. They differ significantly from each other, so we should look into this in more detail.

Professional models

One of the main differences between professional and household hair dryers is power. The latter have an average power of 1.5 kW, while professional ones are 2 times more powerful. Those. their power can be output values of 3000 W or 3 kW. That kind of power is needed because the hairdresser doesn't need to delay the client. He needs to dry his hair as quickly as possible and let the person go. However, there is a certain drawback in this, because such hot air is by no means good for hair.

Professional hair dryers are also more durable, they are made of impact-resistant plastic. Like if a hairdryer falls in a hairdresser, it falls on the hard tiled floor and can break. However, in apartments, especially in bathrooms, there is also a tiled floor, but for some reason manufacturers do not take this into account. However, professional hair dryers have a really solid case, which cannot be said about most household models. This, of course, has a very strong effect on weight, so you can distinguish a professional hairdryer by simply picking it up.

Also, such models are equipped with many additional attachments at once. This is just necessary for the hairdresser, because he has to do a variety of haircuts and he works with different hair. Functions in hair dryers are also varied: there is a cold mode, air flow adjustment, ionization, etc.

Household models

Low power in models intended for home use. Usually this is 1.5-2 kW of power, and this is quite enough to make a good styling on your own. Most of these models are equipped with an ionization function, because it is really important. This is where their functionality is limited. Now there are many models on the market that differ in price and other parameters, for example, in terms of noise level.

We also note that these models are lightweight and practical, they are more ergonomic, and therefore easy to operate. As for prices, the range is wide: there are models at a price of $ 15, and there are models at $ 100-150. Depending on the amount you are willing to spend, you can buy either a simple and not very powerful device that can only dry your hair corny, or a really high-quality hairdryer with professional functionality.

In general, we answered how professional hair dryers differ from household ones: the presence of additional functions, a durable and heavy body, the presence of many attachments, and high power.

In order to make a beautiful styling, we often go to a hairdresser or beauty salon. Hair, styled by a master, retains its shape and shine for a long time. It is believed that a similar effect can be achieved at home using professional hair dryers. How do they differ from household appliances and can such a technique in the hands of a layman become a real magic wand for your hair?

Definition

Household hair dryer- a device designed for drying and styling hair at home.

Professional hairdryer- a professional device designed for drying and styling hair. Used in beauty salons and hairdressing salons.

Comparison

Professional and household hair dryers differ in many ways:

	Professional hairdryer	Household hair dryer
Power	It has a higher power (up to 2400 W), which allows you to significantly reduce the drying time and avoid premature overheating of the device.It is better for an untrained user not to purchase a model more powerful than 2000 W: you can not calculate the temperature regime and severely dry (if not burn) the scalp	The power of such a hair dryer is from 400 to 1600 watts. Hair dryers with minimum power should not dry your hair for a long time: the engine can overheat. That is why long and thick curls need to be dried in several stages (giving the device time to cool down and "rest")
Modes and nozzles	It has several temperature and speed modes, each of which is designed for a specific type of hair and the styling chosen by the stylist / client of the salon. Equipped with a number of attachments that allow you to make any style	Often it has no more than two temperature modes. More expensive models may come with several nozzles, most often a diffuser and a concentrator. Cheap models are sold without attachments
Additional functions	Ionic function that allows you to give your hair shine and smoothness. The tourmaline coating saturates the air released by the hairdryer with additional ions, which is doubly beneficial for the hair. Cold air function that allows you to fix the styling without additional styling cosmetics. Comfortable (often rubberized) handle. Filters that protect the hair dryer from hair and dust. Can be equipped with a noise damper for quiet operation	Depends on the price of the hair dryer. Well-known, but also more expensive household hair dryers can have the function of ionization and cold air. The latter differs in that in professional hair dryers the air becomes cold almost instantly, and in household hair dryers it cools down gradually and therefore often does not give the expected effect.
Price	Average price - about 3 thousand rubles and more	A simple model without additional functions can be purchased for 300-400 rubles
A heating element	Ceramic. Due to uniform heating, it does not dry out or burn hair	Metallic, unevenly heated
Cord length	2.7-3 meters	Up to 2 meters
Term of use	Has a long (up to 10 years and more) service life	Short-lived

high-quality housing and durability;
high power, not less than 2 kW;
low noise level;
a long cord that allows the master to move freely with the device around the client;

Professional hair dryers have many additional features. Among the mandatory ones it is worth noting ionization. The models are designed for long hours of operation and have overheating protection. Using this hair dryer is safe for hair.

Advantages and disadvantages

Professional hair dryers are comfortable to use and durable. Their advantages:

ionization allows you to quickly dry your hair without the risk of overheating it;
the ceramic heating element heats the air evenly;
hair dryers are protected against overheating and combustion;
the product is designed for long-term use;

Among the disadvantages of professional hair dryers are the high cost and impressive weight. The latter is explained by the fact that the body is made of high quality material. As a result the hair dryer is durable and not afraid of mechanical damage.

In addition, the weight is influenced by the internal parts.

Views

Initially, hair dryers are divided into three broad categories - they can be household, semi-professional and professional. The first two types are most often purchased for home use. The latter are used by hairdressers-stylists in salons to create styling. The main differences between the classes are in power and additional functions.

Regular hair dryers are designed for intermittent use. Long, thick hair can overheat when dried. A semi-professional hair dryer can be considered universal. These models have an acceptable balance of cost and durability. A professional hairdryer at home will last the longest.

Devices can have different purposes. Some let you dry your hair well, but are not designed for creating hairstyles and styling. Hair dryers are divided into these types.

Concentrators. Equipped with one slotted nozzle. It concentrates the air flow on the strand. Usually these hair dryers are compact. If you use them carelessly, there is a high risk of overdrying your hair.

Stylers. Used to create styling. The main attachment is the brush. Drying your hair with such a device will not work, just style it. Usually attachments are designed for leveling, adding volume, creating curls.

Diffuser. Designed for drying hair. Many hair dryers have attachments of this type. Hair dries gently and volume appears. The diffuser has "fingers" that disperse hot air over the entire head.

Additionally, hair dryers are divided according to their shape. So, concentrators and diffusers are usually made in the form of a pistol, and brushes are in the form of a cylinder. Features of the forms.

Gun. The handle is located at an angle, which makes working with the hairdryer more convenient. This is the form that professionals prefer. The handle can be folded.

Cylinder. A feature of such a device is its low weight. Usually this form is chosen by novice masters who are just learning how to make hairstyles.

Compact hair dryers. You can take them with you on the road. The case is lightweight and foldable, which allows you to fit the hairdryer even in a small purse.

The power of the hair dryer is of great importance for the quality and speed of styling. This characteristic directly depends on the quality of the motor. Professional hair dryers can vary in power.

Less than 1500 watts. Usually these are hair dryers that allow you to gently style your hair. This airflow allows even thin, damaged hair to be treated gently.
1500 to 2000 watts. Universal indicator. This power is designed for daily use and healthy hair styling.
Over 2000 watts. Improved models have this indicator. Hair dryers are designed to create high-quality styling that keeps its shape for a long time.

Do not use the device on weak or fine hair.

How do they differ from ordinary ones?

A household hair dryer usually has a power of up to 1500 watts. This is enough to dry the hair. A professional hairdryer is more powerful, more than 2000 watts. So drying becomes faster, it becomes possible to make high-quality styling. The powerful device handles long and thick hair better. With household hair dryers, things are different. Sometimes the device has time to overheat several times before drying is complete. It is worth noting that for thin or short hair, a 1800 watt hair dryer is sufficient.

Household appliances have metal heating elements, while professional ones have ceramic ones. The former heat up unevenly, so the air can be hot somewhere and cooler somewhere. Such heating elements often overheat, which leads to the shutdown of the hair dryer or its breakdown. Ceramic heating elements are more reliable and guarantee an even heating of the air flow.

Ordinary hair dryers have 2-3 operating modes, and sometimes are completely limited to one. A professional device allows you to control the power and temperature of the air flow much better. Additionally, cold air supply is provided. This function allows you to consolidate the styling results, quickly cool the hair. Professional hair dryers always have a stronger body and a longer cord. Thanks to this, the master can freely move around the client's chair. Additionally, it should be noted that professional devices are designed for intensive use. Hair dryers do not overheat during operation during the day.

A large number of attachments also distinguish devices from conventional ones. In household hair dryers there are 1 or 2. Usually, this is a concentrator and diffuser.

Professional devices have a more diverse set, which allows you to make different styling with one tool.

How to choose?

A professional hairdryer is quite expensive, so you should choose it very carefully. Power should come first. The speed of hair drying depends on it. Girls with long and thick hair should choose more powerful devices. Bob haircuts can be dried at a power of 1600-1900 watts.

The modes of operation are of great importance when choosing. The settings allow you to adjust the temperature and air flow rate. Typically, a professional technician has 3 modes that control heating. It should be noted that the maximum temperature should not be too high, exceeding 70 °.

The speed adjustment should be finer to be able to handle hair of different lengths and thicknesses.

The attachments are of no less importance. They are able to expand the functionality of the hair dryer. Types of attachments:

diffuser for adding volume;
nozzle for quick drying;
a round brush for twisting the strands when drying;
the tongs replace the flattening iron.

Modern devices for drying and styling hair have different heating elements. In their manufacture, metal or ceramics are used. The latter allows you to dry your hair quickly and without harm. Hot air will hardly harm the strands if the heater is made of ceramic. Metal is not as safe, but it costs significantly less.

It should be noted that some modern models have tourmaline heating elements. These hair dryers have more ions that make the hair soft and manageable. Additionally, you should pay attention to the handle coating. If this part of the hair dryer is rubberized, then working is much more pleasant and easier. A layer of rubber prevents the device from slipping out of your hands while drying and styling your hair.

The noise level is especially important when using a professional hairdryer at home. Devices of this class are quieter than household devices. In some models, the motor itself runs loudly, but there are nozzles that absorb sounds. In this case, the hair dryer will work quietly only with the nozzles. The weight and length of the power cord directly affect the comfort of use. The lightest professional hairdryer weighs 400-500 grams. This device is intended for drying short and fine hair.

Choosing the right hair dryer for drying and styling your hair will help you to significantly reduce the cost of beauty salons. After all, not all women can afford constant visits to hairdressing salons. Therefore, the decision to buy a hair dryer becomes not only economically profitable, but also allows you to speed up the process of beauty induction. The modern household electrical appliance market offers a wide variety of models to choose from. And it can be very difficult to choose a truly high-quality and useful hairdryer.

The main differences between a professional hair dryer and a household one

Even the most expensive model of the device cannot guarantee that the owner will be satisfied with the result of the work. After all, in order to style your hair beautifully and reliably, you need to have certain skills. Therefore, for daily use, it is better to choose a household hairdryer. But if the goal is to design complex hairstyles and have experience in hair styling, then the choice should be stopped on a professional hairdryer.

So, the criteria for distinguishing hair dryers:

Price.
Specifications.
Life time.

It is customary to include the following technical characteristics:

Cord length,
The presence of attachments,
Variability of modes of use,
Additional functions.

Professional hair dryers handle all hair types with ease, no matter how long they are. Therefore, in order to perfectly straighten, curl or style your hair, it is easier to use just such a device. It is important to remember that any manipulation with hair must be safe. That is why each hair type has its own optimal styling regimen. And in order to protect them from negative effects, you can use special protective hair products. The longer the hair is dried in the wrong mode, the more likely it is to damage it. A correctly selected operating mode will help save them from overheating.

Modes of operation of hair dryers

It is important to remember that the maximum number of speed and temperature conditions is necessary only for professional hairdressers. As soon as they can correctly select the drying mode and cope with hair styling.

For everyday use, a professional hair dryer should have 2 speed and 3 temperature settings... Even a beginner in using the appliance will find it easy to figure out how to dry different types of hair. To dry thick and healthy curls, you can use the most powerful speed and temperature mode, and for styling them, one tone less modes will be the best choice. Curly hair requires simple styling without a nozzle and a not very high temperature value. And if the hair is thin and brittle, they should be dried at the lowest speed setting and at a low temperature. If straightening is required, then you need to select the maximum temperature and use a special nozzle to concentrate hot air. A household hair dryer usually has only two settings for speed and temperature, and they can also be sold without attachments.

Power

One of the most important characteristics when choosing a hair dryer is its power. For professional devices, it is usually very large - up to 2400 W... And for ordinary hair dryers, its indicators are in the interval from 400 W to 1600 W... As a rule, such small capacities are enough for drying hair, but no longer for high-quality styling. Because of this, household appliances can often overheat, therefore, drying long hair with them should take place in several approaches. However, using a professional hair dryer can damage your hair, especially if you use a high power device. This can burn your scalp.

Styling attachments

Cheap household hair dryers are usually sold without any attachments, while more expensive models may include several pieces. Professional hair dryers are always equipped with various attachments that will help you to make almost any style. The most common type is the hot air nozzle, which allows for a smoother hairstyle, and the diffuser, which is necessary only for those with curly hair. He makes them lush and voluminous.

Additional functions

Professional hair dryers have several useful functions, such as cold air mode and hair ionization. It is necessary to cool the strands so that they remain folded for a long time. This is because the hotter the hair, the more unruly it becomes. And the ionization mode gives the curls a smoothness and shine. Also, in more expensive models, there may be nozzles that protect against dust penetration, or reduce the volume of the device. The rubberized handle is also an optional feature that helps to hold the hair dryer while in use. Household hair dryers often do not have all of the above functions.

Cord length

Household hair dryers usually have a short cord length that does not exceed two meters. And the length of the cord for professional devices can be three meters, so it is more convenient to use them.

Lifetime

Since a professional hair dryer is made from more expensive and high quality materials, its service life is much longer. It can be ten years old. Household hair dryers are short-lived; due to overheating, they can often fail. The heating element in professional hair dryers is ceramic. It allows you to evenly warm up and dry your hair. And in household ones, it is usually metallic, so the heating is uneven.

Hairdryer cost

The price range of household hair dryers begins from 400 rubles, and a professional device costs from three thousand rubles and more. This difference is due to the fact that cheap hair dryers are usually not designed to last. Also, professional hair dryers have a wider range of options.

Before choosing a hair dryer, you need to know exactly which device you need. And, based on the list of its characteristics and amount, choose a model. It would be preferable to use professional hair dryers at home. They must meet the requirements and meet certain criteria. The kit includes detailed instructions that will help you understand the intricacies of its operation.

A powerful professional hairdryer is the hair specialist's main tool. Often, the result obtained in the salon depends not only on the hands of the master, but also on the level of quality of the tools used. This article will help you not to be mistaken in choosing the right assistant in creating stylish styling.

Peculiarities

A professional hairdryer is easy to recognize even externally. Since hairdressing tools play a large role in creating the image of the salon and the hairdresser, they always have a striking design. Noble dark shades and smooth lines are preferable, or, on the contrary, catchy colors and models. In addition, these hair dryers have a comfortable rubberized handle and a rotating cord of such length that it is convenient to work with the tool. Usually it is about three meters.

The shape of the nozzle is characteristic. For a more concentrated supply of hot or cold air to the strands and, therefore, quick styling, it has an elongated shape and no more than one cm in width. Therefore, using such a hairdryer at home is not convenient.

Devices of this kind are very powerful and can work for a long time and continuously. They differ in the choice of nozzles and temperature regimes, which leaves a wide field for the master's creativity. They are distinguished by a long service life - about 10 years.

How is it different from the usual?

A professional hairdressing tool must withstand daily stress and work without interruption for long hours. To achieve this, a hair dryer must be more powerful than a household appliance. Usually this parameter ranges from 1600 to 2000 W. Such performance is not required from ordinary household appliances.

As a rule, salon instruments have a clear specialization. ... They can be designed for drying hair, curling, straightening or fixing the hairstyle. One device can cope with all these tasks, but then it will need several replaceable nozzles and adjustable power and airflow modes.

In a professional hairdryer, there must be an option to select different temperature modes. Most often there are three of them: the most powerful and hot air jet is supplied for drying, the medium-strength jet is used for styling, and the weakest is used to consolidate the result. In addition, the hairdresser definitely needs the function of supplying cold air, which is able to give the hairstyle durability and shine.

Under the influence of hot air, the hair structure becomes more pliable and elastic, and the contrast between temperatures is intended to consolidate the result.

The difference between a professional hairdryer and a regular home appliance is that the latter should not offer such a wide range of modes, especially if it is used only for drying hair.

This nozzle is also found on home hair dryers, since it is not at all difficult to learn how to use it. But a concentrator can be dangerous in inept hands, as it directs a jet of hot air directly to a small section of hair. This is fraught with scalp burns and dry hair. Such tools are intended for use by third parties.

Various styling in the salon will help you create a professional styler. This modern multifunctional device combines several instruments at once due to interchangeable attachments. Ceramic plates will give your hair the smoothness you want, and brushes of different diameters will allow you to create perfect curls.

Usually, this tool comes with covers for storing accessories, so that all replaceable attachments will always be in one place at hand, which is necessary in the work of the master.

Italy and Germany are considered the leaders in the production of hairdressing salon equipment. The assembly made in these countries guarantees high quality. Unlike professional hair dryers, household appliances are usually imported from China.

A high-quality tool can serve for more than 10 years under daily loads. This significantly distinguishes it from its domestic counterpart: at least one manufacturer is unlikely to vouch for such durability.

Professional hair dryers are protected from overheating and fire by the built-in thermal protection. This is a necessary safety measure when the electrical appliance is subjected to such intensive use as in the passenger compartment. This mechanism prevents overheating of both the instrument itself and the surface of the hair.

It is great if an ionizer is built into the device. It gives hair smoothness and shine, prevents electrification, which makes the work of the hairdresser easier. It also supports hair health in the long term.

Specifications

Let's highlight the main ones:

First of all, when purchasing a hairdryer for the salon, it is necessary to familiarize yourself with the list of its technical properties. One of the defining indicators is power. The higher it is, the hotter the air comes out of the nozzle and the faster it will lay and dry. For thick and long hair, a high power level is useful so that the process of working with hair does not drag on for hours. The lower threshold for professional hair dryers is 1600 W. This is sufficient for working with medium length and thick hair, but can be difficult to style when thick and thick. For tougher and more voluminous curls, more power is needed - 2000-3000 watts.
It is necessary that the tool lies comfortably in the hand. It is worth paying attention to the shape and material of the handle. It is much more comfortable to touch the rubberized surface. It is worth trying to get comfortable with the tool in the store, hold it, paying attention to the length of the cord. It is all the more necessary to first try on the hair dryer, because despite modern production technologies, this is a very heavy device. The weight can be up to 700 grams. It should be borne in mind that the hairdresser will have to interact with this tool most of the day.
A miniature master can choose a more compact option. Not all professional models are equally bulky, moreover, "crumbs" are in no way inferior to them in power. A small hair dryer does not have to be for home use only.
Ok if you like design the selected tool. However, this is not the most important thing when creating amazing styling.
For greater comfort of visitors to the salon, many hair dryers are equipped special mechanisms that make them silent. You should pay attention to these models, because they will make being in the hairdresser more enjoyable for everyone, including the masters. Long-term repeated exposure to high noise levels negatively affects the psyche and human health.

How to use it correctly?

Although it seems that there is nothing easier than drying your head with a hairdryer, working with a professional tool has a number of features. Currently, it is very popular to purchase such models for the home, because they give excellent results in a short time and are equipped with many modes.

A very common mistake made by lovers of creating salon styling at home is drying very wet hair. Immediately after washing, you need to blot your head with a towel, trying not to wrinkle or rub your hair too much, since when wet they are very fragile and sensitive to mechanical stress. Only after that you need to start using the hair dryer.

When creating a daily stylish styling or a spectacular look for a special occasion, it should be remembered that the main thing in heat treatment of hair is its safety. You should not skimp on thermal protection, which can prevent many hair problems. For example, the ends with daily hot styling become dry and brittle, they begin to split. Hair grows poorly and loses its shine. Burns to the scalp may cause dandruff and discomfort. Special care products can protect against this.

Then, getting down to work, you need to choose the right temperature regime corresponding to a certain type of hair. The thinner and less frequent the hair, the less temperature they need. Do not expose them to hot air for too long.

Thicker and more unruly hair requires more power. But even then, you should not keep the hair dryer in one place for a long time.

When drying at high temperatures, avoid pointing the nozzle at the hair roots. Damaged hair can be blown dry with cold air or alternating with warm air. It will take longer, but this styling is more gentle.

You need to dry so that the air flows in the direction from the hair roots to the ends. This will help seal off the flakes of the hair and make the hair look shinier and more well-groomed.

Drying with cool air is safest for hair. But it is often neglected because it takes much longer.

Although blow-drying is much less harmful to hair than permanent styling or using an iron, it is still a thermal effect on the hair. When it gets too frequent, it takes a toll on the hair. They become dry, break and lose their luster. Therefore, at least once a week, you need to give your hair a rest. Let them dry naturally.

You need to style your hair in sections, without trying to dry or straighten the entire mass of hair at the same time. So the result will be better and more expressive. It is necessary to divide the hair into strands 3-5 cm wide and work with them one by one.

At the end of the installation, it must be fixed with varnish. You can also apply wax to your hair for a shine and a set finish. It is now produced not only in the form of a thick mass, but also in a more convenient spray to use. It protects and nourishes the strands well, moisturizes them, makes them elastic.
