have been used it for ?10 yearsvery quick dry and efficient

Fabulous hairdryer, used by pretty much every hairdresser I've ever been to. Bought to replace my old Parlux which finally gave out after about 12 years long service in daily use! I thought I'd go for the slightly more expensive version this time for the weight reduction and I'm really happy to report that it is just as powerful as the old one, with a noticeable but not massive weight reduction. In conjunction with my ceramic barrelled round bristle brush (GHD), it leaves my shoulder length thick frizzy hair straight and silky in 10 minutes without the need for any straightening irons afterwards. At the price I think it is so worth the money, especially since I gave up the GHD straighteners years ago and they are more expensive than this, plus I don't have any breakage of my hair with this method where the straighteners were really bad for hair condition. If you're thinking of buying just do it you won't regret it. Can't recommend enough!

Love my Parnell’s just purchased my 4th over the last 30 years, superb!

This is by far the best hairdryer I've used. I have mix-textured Afro-Asian hair and choose to blowdry my hair after washing. I use one of those thermal roller brushes whilst blowdrying to help stretch the hair out due to shrinkage and this leaves my 4a/4b hair looking silky, smooth and somewhat straight-ish. Me and my mum use it and we both suffer from Fibromyalgia so tend to get aches in our wrists and arms, however this is quite lightweight so it a lot more ergonomical to hold. My only complaint is that it gets really hot even on the lower heat setting: at times feels like it's burning my scalp. Definitely make sure to plaster that heat protection on, because the heat that comes out of this thing will damage your hair if you're not careful. Another complaint, is that it was really confusing when we first starting using it in terms of switching it on. There isn't an on-button, instead you have to press the lower button to turn it on and off. Overall, I really appreciate having a hairdryer brand that specifically designs its products with Afro and Curly hair in mind, as it's often a rare occurrence. 100% recommend for Afro hair, worth the expensive price tag :)

Excellent! I have fine hair that I'm useless at styling. I used to rely on a straighter to try and tidy up the mess I made of drying it but this dries my hair so quickly that I no longer need a straighter as it dries it in the exact direction that I want. No fly away bits. Several people have asked me if I've gotten my 'hair done'. It's very light, powerful and quick but not noisy. I LOVE it and would never be without again. Worth every penny.

I bought this hairdryer in 2012. It's still going strong. I'd only ever buy another Parlux. Amazing product and great value for money.

Love this dryer.Its so easy to use and manoeuvre and really great for styling.Heat is move then enough but it dosen't get over hot where it can burn you.Wouldn't buy anything else

Best hair dryer I have ever owned and I've had quite a few. I have shoulder length, thick coarse hair which is difficult to style. Even after years of practice, it would still feel a big job to wash and style my hair. Not anymore. I thought I was being way to extravagant buying a dryer at this price, but I can honestly say that I don't regret it now I have it. It is amazing. This wee machine is so light and yet so powerful and it has halved the time it takes to do my hair. Cool blast is great as well so I don't get too hot anymore either.I am a total convert and will recommend this hair dryer to anyone. I'm so happy.
