Get the look you want without breaking the bank!

Achieving chic and stylish hair can come at a hefty price. If you donít have the budget to go out and buy a fancy hair appliance, a simple hair dryer is the best bet. A quality blow out can make you look instantly chic. Most people prefer ion hair dryers because they tend to reduce the static electricity and make the hair look shinier. When blow drying hair, it is always recommended to point the flow of air from the root to the tip to cause less breakage. The easiest way to achieve a salon looking blowout is to separate hair into different sections. Starting from the underneath, unclip the sections and dry (preferably with the assistance of a large round brush) and work your way up to the crown.

Putting too much heat on the hair can break the cuticle. If you take the time and give yourself a nice blowout, you wonít have to go over it again with a flat iron or curling iron to give it style, thus adding more heat.

Getting one of the best hair dryers out there doesnít mean you need to shell out a ton of money. A simple hair dryer can work wonders on your hair as long as it has a few simple settings. You donít want to purchase a dryer that only has an on/off switch. Purchasing one with different heat intensities as well as different speeds allows you to control what itís doing to your hair. Having a ìcoolî button is something to look for as well.

The amazing reputation the CHI brand has with their flat irons translates just as well to the purchase of a CHI hair dryer. The technology they provide their customers proves to be above and beyond ñ far infrared, ceramic technology, and low electro-magnetic fields. Some of their top picks are the Farouk CHI Rocket Hair Dryer and the Farouk CHI Nano Hair Dryer.

A Super Solano hair dryer is another highly recommended pick. They use high wattage motors in order to achieve an ideal airflow pressure, but balance it out with ion and tourmaline technologies in order to keep hair healthy.

Another factor that may come up while deciding which one to purchase is figuring out which one would be a good travel hair dryer. While traveling you want to be able to have the same high quality in your hair dryer, but you want it to be a little more light weight and possibly a smaller size in order to fit in your suitcase. Some even fold up in order to be truly compact. You donít want to risk having to use the ones provided for you in a hotel room. Most brands, CHI included, offer varieties in travel sizes as well.
