Bellissima Diffon Supreme Diffuser & Curly Hair Dryer - XL Diffuser for Long Waves, Curls, Coils - Cool Button - Anti-Frizz Technology

I dithered about buying this hair dryer for like a year because I figured it couldn’t possibly be THAT much better than my (nice! expensive!) regular hair dryer with a diffuser attachment. But I was totally wrong!! When I started using it, people I see regularly noticed immediately—my coworkers and friends were like “your hair looks great, did you do something different?” This dryer throws a lot of heat without blowing much air, which seems to be the secret to how it manages to maximize my curls and volume with limited frizz. With my old dryer, I would only dry my hair about halfway to avoid blowing too much frizz into it as it got dry. With this one, I can get it almost all the way dry no problem. It also helps the sections of my hair that are especially stubborn about curling nicely (mostly my gray streaks) to act more like the rest of my hair and curl more uniformly. Somehow, my dry hair also feels softer, even with the same products and routine as before? I don’t know how to explain that, but it has happened consistently. On top of that, the dryer is super lightweight and easy to handle, and it’s small so it takes up less space in my bathroom storage. My conventional dryer was already one that was well-known and highly recommended for being light and compact, but this one beats it easily on both. I’ve already convinced a few curly-haired friends to order one.

My hair has been down to my waist for years. A couple months ago, after a new stylist cut my hair shorter than I'd wanted, I realized I had developed a wave pattern that the weight of my hair had been masking. Since then, I've been learning how to work with the new waves -- my hair is fine, so it doesn't take much for those delicate waves to stretch out -- and I'd started diffusing with a hair dryer already in the house that had come with a diffuser attachment. It was too hot for my hair even on the lowest heat setting and required me to diffuse upside down, which was problematic due to a health condition and which took a very long time. The results were mediocre at best, and when I had to go to work and couldn't let my hair air dry over a couple hours, it just didn't look good. So, for my birthday this year, I decided I'd buy myself the gift of a better hairdryer with a new diffuser. As I was searching for a different diffuser some YouTube wavy hair content creators had recommended, I saw this dedicated diffuser among the listings and was immediately struck by the design. With my short arms, I'd had to hold my previous hairdryer by the barrel to get it into the right position at times, and it struck me that a) this design would address that issue and b) with the bowl-style diffuser (the one I'd had had a flat top), drying would likely be faster and involve fewer contortions. I was also pleased with the lower heat output. There weren't a ton of reviews either here or on YouTube for the original Diffon model and were even fewer for this Diffon Supreme XL ionic model. So I felt like I was taking a bit of a chance at the price point, but Amazon's return policy was solid and I really only need a diffuser rather than a standard hairdryer, so I decided to go for it -- and to choose this model over the original. And so far, I'm thrilled with my decision! Why? Here's why I chose this one over the original Diffon model and what I love so much about this version. Let's start with the settings -- unlike the previous version (the DF1 5000), the settings for this model are on the bottom of the unit, not on the side, making it far less likely to accidentally hit a setting while diffusing. And there are more of them -- this model includes a cool button (the other version doesn't) that can be pressed once and doesn't need to be held down like it does on many hair dryers. The fan strength setting has a slider and the power button sticks out much more than the heat/cool buttons, so it's easy for me to ascertain by feel alone what I'm doing when I want to make a setting change while diffusing -- I find I don't need to look at the settings to use them. Since this model suggests it's for long/thick hair and mine is mid-length and fine, I didn't know if the XL diffuser bowl would be over-sized for my needs, but I find I can put much more of my hair in the bowl at once -- this allows my wave clumps to hold together better while pixie diffusing and has also cut my drying time by 2/3. My hair dries quickly but never feels "overdried" after I diffuse with the Diffon Supreme XL, and between the Argan Oil Ceramic and the Ionic Technology (the original model had the former but not the latter), I don't end up with a bunch of frizz or flyaways (my hair is particularly prone to the latter). The lower temperature also helps me avoid wave collapse when my hair cools -- something that tended to happen with my fine hair when using a regular hair dryer -- even to diffuse on its lowest heat setting. Because of the shape of this diffuser -- which makes so much practical sense, design-wise -- I'm also not contorting myself into difficult positions to diffuse and can easily move the diffuser into the position I want, even with my short, stubby arms. And the results? See above -- I went from having "half-hearted" texture to having healthy looking waves with comparatively little effort. This diffuser has finally given me something I thought I'd never have -- an easy hair routine with "happy-making" results! Happy Birthday to Me!!

I have never in my many decades of life seen anything like this on my head, so many curls from top to bottom, I swear I didn't quite know what to do with them in terms of styling (I have long mildly layered hair). However, this is a challenge I look forward to dealing with. I have used a dyson with diffuser, and a few other popular choices, but this one takes the cake. Some say it takes longer than the dyson, I disagree. It takes about the same amount of time if you have it at high heat and fan with occasional cool button. It is definitely only good for curly, but I find it dries very well. The cool button is not cold, just cool, which I thought was weird because I'm used to "cold shots" but maybe they are overrated? I did a lot of research and am convinced that the high heat setting and fan is still quite gentle on my hair because of how the blowdryer is constructed. Nothing blows harshly on my hair, my hair just sits in the large bowl and is gently heat dried. I could be wrong about that, but that is my opinion at the moment. It is definitely louder than the infamously quiet dyson, but it isn't louder than any regular blowdryer. It is so ergonomically friendly that I can comfortably do part of my yoga routine while drying my hair. It's much harder to do yoga with a regular blowdryer because it is just more in the way. Sorry for the serious yogis out there, I know I am not doing it correctly, but I am a realist. I either multitask or I do neither! I was kind of looking forward to not liking this blowdryer because my dyson was totally fine and I really could use the refund money right before the holidays, but oh well.....happy holidays to me. :-)

I just LOVE this diffuser hair dryer!! So easy to use and hold until hair is dry!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!! Well worth the cost!! The diffuser hair dryer is small and lightweight, it has no smell even from new, dries hair in three settings! Durable and quieter than my regular hair dryer with a diffuser on it. It is incredible and when used with the right products, gets those curls dry without frizz and the curls last for days and days!! Recommend this diffuser hair dryer for curly hair 100%!!!

This is a terrific diffuser for anyone who has wavy or curly hair. It will not frizz your hair however it does dry hair a bit slower than a regular diffuser attachment onto a hair dryer. I am very happy that I purchased this and love how light this diffuser is to hold.

Está súper Seca muy rápido Fácil de usar no pesa y deja increíble los rizos

Love love love. With curly hair it makes a HUGE difference in frizz control and curl. Bowl is smaller so with short hair it works great but in hindsight I would have purchased the xl model for longer hair to grow into.

Ameeeee, la verdad me arrepentí de no a verla comprado desde hace mucho, es una inversión que vale la pena cañon. Mi cabellos es 3a con 2c y lo tengo largo, me llega a la mitad de la pierna, obvio por el encogimiento me termina llegando arriba del glúteo. Me compré una secadora con difusor grande no tan cara, pero por lo mismos con el tiempo como si o dos e calienta el plástico se salía y ya no jalaba, con esta belleza me seco el cabello más rápido está igual de grande, es mil veces más cómodo. 10/10 todavía no tengo tanto tiempo de uso para informar más.

Ampliamente recomendable, excelente calidad.
