Last year, after moving once more (fom a 220V country to the USA) I never actually bought a new hair-dryer and was just using my tiny travel dryer (where you can switch the Volts) for around 8 months. I noticed how much worse my hair was getting. It was frizzy, it broke easily, it split deeply (not just at the end) and of course it took forever and a half to dry my hair with that tiny travel dryer. Whilst it had been cheap and perfect for travelling, I realized it's not the greatest choice to use regularly.
Hence, I decided to actually invest some time into buying a new hair dryer. After researching it seemed that there is not such a big difference between middle-priced dryers and expensive dryers but a big quality difference between cheap dryers and middle-priced dryers. And since I would just be using this dryer at home, it doesn't need to perform at saloon conditions (my hair stylists all said they would not trust BaByliss at their saloons, because they wouldn't be able to 'take the heat' ;) ). That's why I went for this BaByliss in the medium price range (I have the BaByliss Big Hair Brush and a Waver and had great experiences with them). I was also interested in the Tourmaline that's supposed to emit even more negative ions.
~~~THE PROS~~~
- It's WARM, but not too hot, meaning that the risk of heat damage is decreased (I use the hottest setting for most of the process, the Cold hot shot button for the end to allow my hair to cool and my styling to settle). More importantly:
- It's FAST-DRYING. I have seen that some reviewers complained about this dryer not being 'hot enough' but I think it is warm enough. Besides, it's not about how hot it is, but how evenly it distributes the air and how evenly it heats in general. And this really dries my hair well. It used to take 20-30 minutes to dry my hair, with the BaByliss Pro I am done in 8-12 minutes! Although I stop in between to put styling products into my hair. (And as mentioned above, my hair goes down to my hip, so 8-12 minutes is amazing!)
- It has a strong, steady air flow. I use the black nozzle that comes with it (and I've never had the problem of it falling off like other reviewers have said) and it just directs a steady air flow so evenly at exactly where I want it to blow. The air pressure is just perfect.
- It's LIGHT. Although I don't actually have to hold it for all that long, I do appreciate it if my appliances don't weigh too much.
~~~THE CONS~~~
- The BUTTONS. Other reviewers have already said it. The buttons on the handle were a tragic design choice. I feel myself not really gripping the handle of it, because I'm always afraid I will accidentally push another button. I have accidentally switched it off a few times or changed the heater settings from hot to warm or cold. This can be a bit annoying, especially since I often switch hands because I use a round bristle brush to pre-style my hair while blow-drying.
- The CABLE/ADAPTER. I don't know if it's the cable or the adapter or some circuit error, but I know some reviewers have stated that their BaByliss stopped working after a short period of time. I have had some troubles switching it on myself. Since even my cheap, tiny travel hair dryer has had no problems with the electrical sockets it must be this hair dryer. I ALWAYS perform the suggested 'Reset' and 'Test'-routine that you should do before usage and it always tests positively. Still, sometimes my dryer just won't switch on. I just unplug it, try to straighten the cord, plug it back in, hit Rest and Test again. Sometimes I have to do this 2-3 times and so far, it hasn't stopped working entirely. (I've only had it since November 2013 however and now it's January 2014).
~~~THE MENTIONABLE:~~~
(Things that don't bother me, but you'd maybe like to know about).
- The SIZE. While not being as chunky as some of my past hair dryers, it's also not that small, either. I am fine with it, since I don't plan to travel with this dryer (I just need every inch of my luggage so I always only pack my travel dryer that folds together).
- The NOISE level. While I don't find it excessively loud, it's not exactly what I would call quiet either. But then again, I am a bit sensitive when it comes to noise and am quickly leaning towards the 'it's too loud'-party. So I am not bothered by the noise, but I didn't use it and immediately think 'Wow, this is exceptionally quiet', because it's fairly normal.
~~~THE CONCLUSION~~~
I love the results.
It dries my hair quickly (which is VERY important to me), it doesn't seem to excessively damage my hair (of course you should know using any hair dryer is not the healthiest choice for your hair), meaning my hair looks shiny and healthy (no split ends!) and it provides me with exactly what I need for a price of 50 USDs, which I find reasonable.
I acknowledge that there are a few flaws and some room for improvement, but I am just so happy with the job it does that I don't care that I sometimes accidentally switch it off or that I can't firmly grip it around the middle of the handle. Whether this is what you need or if the flaws are something you can compromise on is based on your personal preference.

The biggest problem, however, was the narrow air flow nozzle. It comes off all the time--like several times during one use. I kept using it thinking I'll tape it, which I did. I used aluminum tape designed to adhere to hot surfaces (like flue pipes). It still came off, just not as often. I can't believe I put up with it for so long, probably because I only used it once a week.
It isn't cheap; so I think much less of the company overall for their unresolved quality issues. Revlons and Conairs that I used previously for $23-30 were a joy to use compared to this. Really, avoiding frustration is worth something, but I kept thinking I could fix it and live with it. Bad choice.

Before I purchased this dryer I had a big silver conair dryer that put out a lot of air. The Babyliss TT is definitely better. I didn’t notice a significantly shorter drying time with this dryer, but my hair is definitely smoother. I have thick, fizzy hair with a lot of wave/curl, so I still need to straighten after drying (it’s not magical, sadly) but the Babyliss TT definitely helped me cut back on styling time.
(Sidenote: I use the blue babyliss titanium straightener. I’ve had it for 8.5 years old and it still works perfectly despite being dropped onto our ceramic tile floor more times than I can count, so I’m a huge fan.)
As far as the other reviews on peeling paint: I did notice that the paint on the handle started rubbing off slightly after awhile, but it wasn’t nearly as noticeable as some of the pictures here. My handle was a subtly lighter red than the rest of the dryer, and I never noticed paint in the bathroom or on my hands. I wonder if high humidity and/or hair product use could contribute to the peeling issue? The finish on this dryer isn’t glazed, so I can imagine that if sprayed with hair products (or held in hands covered in product) it would be more prone to rubbing off. Maybe?
Anyway... overall, I like the dryer. It’s slightly on the heavy side and I wish it had a glazed finish, but my biggest issue is that it’s now $30 more expensive on Amazon than it was when I purchased it two years ago (and I had looked at it multiple times before buying, and at least once it had gone on sale for $15 less than the price I ended up paying).
I came here to repurchase this dryer, but I think I’ll try to shop around for a better price or look something else that’s slightly more affordable. I’ll probably leave this in my cart to see if it goes on sale. If it does, I’ll snag it so I have a backup for when the next dryer inevitably dies.

However, it did have very short life span of 1 year or so and I had to buy a new one after it stopped working so I would not recommend this product as a dryer at this price should be built to last more years in my opinion.
Our family did use this dryer every day for just over a year and it worked well while it lasted but not sure why it died and stopped working after just 1 year...





People have commented on the buttons being in a place that makes it too easy to accidentally turn it off, or change the heat setting, and while this is a bit of a problem, being left-handed, I have yet to find a dryer that doesn't do that for me. So, what else is new? I'll adapt as I always do. It just such a great job on my hair, I don't care about the placement of the buttons enough to make it a big deal.
Of note, most hair dryers have the handles angled in such a way (i.e., away from the drying end) that it causes you have to hold your arm up at an exaggerated angle to dry your own hair, which causes your arm to tire out quickly. I don't know why so many brands do this, because most dryers on the market are for home-use/self-use. However, the Babyliss Pro handle is angled toward the drying end (see the product photo) so you don't have to extend your arm further out at an angle and your arm doesn't tire so easily.
I love this dryer, it's well-made, I'm glad that gave it a try, and it is part of my daily hair regimen.



I decided to try it on myself first. I timed how long it took for me to go from towel dried to mostly dry (just a tad damp) and it only took THREE MINUTES. I couldn't believe it and actually checked to be sure my clock was working properly. Because it's been so long since I blowed my hair dry I can't say how my hair felt compared to other hair dryers. I CAN say that I didn't feel any difference between my hair after I used this hair dryer and if I let it dry naturally. When I deep conditioned my hair it only took 5 minutes for me to go from dripping wet to slightly damp.
This dryer is not as loud as my other dryer and doesn't have that high pitched sound that bothers my daughter so much. I am able to blow dry her hair quickly without a fraction of the distress my cheap dryer causes.
I am VERY pleased with this purchase and feel it is worth every penny.


The reason I gave it a 4 rating is because of the handle. They are flip switches and when I grip the handle it changes the settings or turns it off. I am having to train myself to hold the handle differently. I attached a picture to reference.
***Updated 11/7/16 This dryer is still working perfectly. I have gotten used to the button/switch placement but did take a little time to re-train myself. Would still highly recommend this dryer.



I was using the el cheapo Revlon brand "ionic" and "tourmaline" hair dryer I picked up at Walgreens for $29. If you have never used a good hair dryer, THERE IS NO COMPARISON. The cheap kind fry my hair, slowly. This kind actually makes my hair feel healthier and shinier, with less intense heat. I don't know exactly why the ceramic heater does that but it does exactly as it says. I picked BaByliss because the brand kept appearing in online reviews, and because it was available on Amazon with free shipping. I picked the middle price $79 version because I like the option to blast my hair with cold air as it sets on velcro rollers. But I don't need twenty power and temperature settings.
This dryer is much lower weight than my previous fancy model, but a little heavier than the cheap one. It feels substantial and well made in my hand. I love the red color; it adds a shot of color to my neutral bathroom. The buttons are comfortably located and after a month I have yet to accidentally hit one and change the settings.
I told my hairdresser about it and he agreed that this is a very good brand and well priced for what you get.
I want to give these as gifts to all of my girlfreinds!


I had no idea it could get better. Oh, it can.
Today I was so excited to try this blow dryer out that I took an early afternoon shower just to use it. I experimented with the temperatures before using it on my hair - the hot is HOT and the warm felt hotter than my old blow dryer, so I went with that on high speed. I usually have to wait for my hair to mostly dry before using my other blow dryer lest I'm standing there for an hour, but with this one I went to it with still really really damp hair. The thing is just amazing. It dried REALLY quickly and left my hair so smooth and shiny yet still with awesome, gorgeous volume. Once I did my whole head with high speed, I turned it off and grabbed sections I wanted to tweak the ends of, and I used low speed (still warm heat, not high) on those sections individually. The results are so soft and bouncy and perfect, I stood in front of the mirror for ten minutes playing with it. I'm in love.
Guys, gals, anyone with hair - if your results are anything like mine, buy this blow dryer. It took me a lot of time to decide to drop the money on this, but I regret nothing. Totally worth it.
The time it takes to do my hair is now cut in half. I don't have to worry about burning myself on the flatiron. Also, I won't fry the heck out of my hair with the flatiron anymore, which has necessitated so many repairing products over the years.
Some other reviewers have mentioned that, due to the placement of the cool/warm/hot and off/low/high switches, they have changed settings mid-blow dry. I could see how this happened, and I did it once too. All I did to adjust was point my thumb up the handle of the blow dryer instead of curling it around and problem solved.
Seriously. Buy this blow dryer. I can't wait to do my hair again tomorrow.
