Best soft bonnet dryer for DCing?

[Iluvsmuhgrass]

I'm looking for a soft bonnet dryer so that I can get serious about my DCing. My hard bonnet needs to be replaced. Or should I opt for a steamer instead (benefits hair and skin but is not a necessity)? Do you ladies (and gents) have any recommendations? TIA

The cheapest option would be a blow dryer attachment. If you're only going to be using it for deep conditioning it's perfect because it goes for around $10 at Sally's. You just have to make sure whatever brand you get fits the nozzle on your blow dryer.

You don't have to have that much heat for DCing. You can also consider a heat cap. I have the Black and Gold which I've had for 2 years. You can't dry your hair with a heat cap but I think they tend to last longer than the bonnet dryers.

But the attachment piece that the previous poster mentioned is very inexpensive so it wouldn't matter.

Thanks for responding! I'm open to any and all suggestions. The first would be a viable option... unfortunately they're not the right model for the attachment. Which kinda sucks because that would be a great way to get what I need on the cheap lol.

I never thought about a heat cap... faithVA where'd you get yours?

I either bought it at Sally's or at the BSS. Catch one of those holiday sales or get a 20% off coupon from Sally's and you might get a decent price.

I do like it for DCing. It doesn't feel hot but my hair is warm to the touch.

I do have hair dryers I just never use them

I have a Carel soft bonnet dryer. It's great for when I want to dry my hair and watch tv w/ closed captions! lol You could use it to deep condition too. I just bought a gold and hot soft bonnet attachment at lunch b/c my cousin loves my Carel so much, she still has it. So I'll see the G&H does....
