Bellissima Diffon DF1 1000 Hot Air Diffuser for Curly Hair, 11809

Product Information

We're reluctant to use the phrase "cheap and cheerful", but this attachment from millennial pink Aussie haircare brand Mermade Hair does have the lowest price tag of all of the diffusers in our edit. It’s easy to clip on to the Mermade Dryer –which, it’s important to note, is the only tool that it's compatible with – plus it felt extremely secure once attached and stayed put throughout our blow drying session. Results-wise, it did its job of keeping frizz levels down and retaining curl definition. If you know that your curls tends to become frizzy if you air dry your hair, or that it takes a very long time to dry naturally on its own, you'll most likely find that using a diffuser and a dryer on a low speed and low heat setting gets you much better results. Is it healthier to use a diffuser on hair? As a result, the Creativity 4 You dryer falls a little short for design – a selection of excellent features is let down by some poor choices elsewhere. DIGITAL HEAT CONTROL: Maintains and regulates the temperature ensuring hair protection from heat damage Personally, I’d only use the Air Wonder on occasion rather than daily – which, in my opinion, brings down the value of the product overall quite considerably.

Smooth & Delicate: this concentrator features a micro-perforated grid that helps minimize frizz and reduce hair damage; First, wash and detangle your hair in the shower. If you tend to have dry hair, consider applying a leave-in conditioner for added moisture and heat protection. Part, style and define your curls before you begin diffusing. Cup diffuser: A classic design, and the one you’ll find is the most common. It’s ideal for those with medium-to-long hair. CURLS BOOSTER SYSTEM: The combined action of the perforated grid and the 12 long fingers gently dry and enhance the shape and elasticity of the curls First thing to note about it is that it’s very light and compact. The Bellissima Diffon is an all-in-one diffuser and hair dryer, therefore there is no need to attach it to a hair dryer. It’s got an ergonomic design that makes it really easy to hold when drying your hair. This is so much better than holding a hairdryer and huge diffuser for ages, especially if you have a lot of hair.

There are two ways you can go about drying your luxurious curls: air drying...or, you guessed it, diffusing. Then, you can begin to diffuse by directionally blow drying from the root to the tip."The hair dryer should be set to low or medium heat and high airflow when diffusing hair. Tilt your head and cup the hair in the diffuser rather than flipping it and applying heat from below," says Wizemann. "Make gentler movements up and down, directing the spikes towards roots without touching them to lift them and add volume. The tips will also help create a texture, while low heat will define and soften the hair's natural shape." The prongs are also a generous length and can reach the scalp, while the surface of the diffuser is covered with a good amount of holes. It also features adjustable airflow, meaning you can adapt the amount of air that comes through the dryer to suit your styling needs and preference.

TEMPERATURE LEVELS & 2 SPEED SETTINGS: Thanks to 2 speeds and 3 temperatures, you can choose the combination that suits your hair, while the gentle cool airflow is perfect for setting curls.Jonny Eagland is senior stylist at London salon Nicola Clarke at John Frieda, as well as an ambassador for haircare brand Virtue. Curly haired types are likely well aware of what a typical hair dryer can do to your strands. (We're talking uneven ringlets and frizz, to name a few.) Turns out the nozzle on your hair dryer could be the culprit. Though it works for those with naturally straighter hair, it won't come close to smoothing and shaping natural curls. That's why upgrading the traditional hair dryer nozzle to a quality hair diffuser is the hair helper you've been looking for — diffusing your curls can finally achieve the fullness and curl definition you've been dreaming of. CERAMIC & ARGAN OIL TECHNOLOGY: Protects the hair whilst drying, with an anti-frizz and anti-dryness effect Now that you're convinced that your dryer needs a diffuser to bring out the best in your curl pattern, the next question concerns what you actually need to look for in an attachment to make sure it’s right for both your hair and your dryer. Collapsible diffusers: For all your travel needs, these diffusers do the same as your classic cup-type, but can collapse for easy storage.
