Paul Mitchell new Limited Edition Nature Inspired Express Ion Dry Turbolight Dryer
On any given day, we’re all about good-for-the-earth products, but when it comes to Earth Day, we crank it up just a notch. So we decided to green our hair styling routine for this eco-licious day. And what better way to do so than with an eco-friendly blow dryer? Yep, that’s right, the geniuses at Paul Mitchell have come up with the new Limited Edition Nature Inspired Express Ion Dry Turbolight Dryer.
How is it eco-friendly, you ask? Well, this lightweight dryer is infused with an Express Ion Complex that dries hair up to 60% faster, thus saving you (and your electrical systems) time and energy. Plus, the Express Ion Complex helps enhance shine by delivering an extra does of conditioning technology.
We wanted to see if this $190 dryer really measured up, so we took it for a dry run. Did it blow us away? Read on!
Before I get into the details of the Turbolight Dryer, let me divulge a little secret: This beauty writer NEVER dries her hair. It’s something that everyone’s always shocked to learn, but it’s true. Blessed with natural curls, I prefer to air-dry my hair normally, but every once in a blue moon I do dry my hair. When I do, it usually takes me a little while, given the fact that I have very thick hair. So with that in mind, here’s my verdict!
When I started to dry my hair with the Turbolight Dryer, I was immediately impressed with its pleasant appearance feel and how nice it felt to grip. But all appearances aside, within five minutes, my hair had already started to dry significantly—indeed no small feat.
In no time (precisely under 25 minutes), my hair was pretty dry and ready to go. And the time/energy I saved in the process felt pretty darn nice.
Would I invest in this product if I didn’t dry my hair frequently? Probably not. But if I were a religious dryer, I would absolutely do so. For $190, you not only get a quality product, but with the money you’ll save in the long-term in energy bills, this dryer is bound to pay for itself, and then some.
The Express Ion Dry Turbolight Dryer retails for $190 and is only available in professional salons during March/April. Visit www.paulmitchell.com for salon locations and availability.
