Best hair dryer for every budget on Takealot
The key to a salon-level blowout is a great hair dryer. Here is a list of top picks on Takealot for every budget.
What to look for when shopping?
You’re going to want to find a hairdryer with an adjustable heat and speed setting. An added plus is if the hair dryer comes with a cool shot button that can help close the cuticle of the hair and lock it in place, which preventing frizz once you’ve finished drying your hair. Make sure the different attachments fit your hair: they really make a difference in textures as they affect a hair dryer’s airflow.
Diffusers
Diffusers are ideal for those with curly hair as they move air to the ends of the hair while spreading the air-stream from the hairdryer to avoid frizz, which can add extra bounce and volume to your hair.

Concentrator nozzles
For different purposes, they come in different sizes:
- Broad, extended concentrator nozzles are for larger hair sections and are useful for thick, long hair as it drys faster.
- Thin, narrow concentrative nozzles provide a smooth blowout to curly and frizzy hair, as their strong flows are great to remove frizz.
