How To Choose a Hair Dryer Nozzle?
October 31,2024
When buying a hair dryer, are you buying it for the blowing function itself, or would you want it to come with more added value to help you dry your hair while realizing a variety of goals, such as a fast blowing speed, helping scales close, not losing hair moisture, and helping with styling?
As people's quality of life continues to improve, the demand for hair dryers is also getting higher, before the rare negative ion function, fast air drying, temperature control, and other functions have also become the standard of today's hair dryers. With the continuous upgrading of the function, the hair dryer matched with the nozzle also began to move up, and even some hair dryers with several nozzles up to 5, to meet the different needs of consumers.
So the question is, in the face of an endless stream of hair dryer nozzles, do you know how they work?
Collector nozzle
Styling features: wide and flat
Hair Style: Straight
The nozzle is generally the basic nozzle that all hair dryers are equipped with. Due to the flatness and small size of the nozzle's outlet, it often results in higher air speeds and stronger winds, which may be more noticeable if you are used to keeping your hair dryer in the highest setting.
The advantage of a collector nozzle is its ability to target localized hair for more accurate styling, but the disadvantage is that the wind is so strong that if you're not paying attention, it's easy to lose curls that need to be treated gently or mess up your style - this happens more often if you're not good at some blow-drying techniques, though! If you just want to dry your straight hair, you don't need to consider this.
A word of caution: Most hair dryers that don't have temperature control are often prone to scalp burns when used with a collector nozzle and when you choose a high setting. It is recommended to use the hair dryer with the nozzle at least 20cm away from the hair, not fixed in one position, for blow drying. Of course, you can also directly remove the nozzle to use it.
Diffuser
Styling features: round
Hairstyle: permed hair
Also known as “diffusion nozzles” or “detanglers”, these nozzles are characterized by their round shape, and some are even shaped like a deep plates, with vertical combs.
The advantage of the loose wind nozzle is that it can help the permed hair to better maintain the shape, especially for the “handicapped party”, it is more convenient - just put the hair by the hairdresser at that time to deal with the way, along the texture of the disk into the loose wind nozzle, wait until the hair is dry, the style will naturally be completed. When the hair is dry, the styling is complete, and those 4-hour perms that last less than 30 days are reduced.
Often, the gentle wind of the loose wind nozzle makes it difficult to play the effect of the hair quickly all dry, so it is often used in conjunction with the set of wind nozzle, the scalp first blow-dry, hair blow-dry to half-dry, and then slowly primping styling, will be more reasonable state, especially for the hair is long and long, it is more so. However, if you have an average amount of hair and want to utilize the loose nozzle to fix the styling at once, you can do it, but you need to measure the selected hair dryer gear and distance more carefully so as not to burn your scalp.
In addition to these two types of nozzles, some nozzles on the market are moderately modified based on the characteristics of the set nozzle and the loose nozzle. Generally speaking, products modified based on the set nozzle often focus on styling, smoothing, etc., while products modified based on the characteristics of the loose nozzle often emphasize the softness of the wind, helping to shape curly hair. If you don't have any special needs, a hair dryer with both types of nozzles will be sufficient for your daily needs.
