At the salon, I sit under the dryer for about 45 minutes...an hour tops. At home, it takes 2 hours under my bonnet dryer to dry my roller sets...whats up with that?

IMO, the salon dryers seem to be hotter than 'at home' dryers. I have a hard bonnet dryer and a soft bonnet dryer.

Agreed. Professional dryers have more wattage power. I have 4 soft bonnets. 2 of them are 425 watts The other 2 are 375...there is a big difference drying time. Also if the bonnet is too snug( a problem when you use bigger rollers) there less room for the air to circulate. Another reason why salon dryers work better. I was told the stand up one at Sally's dries really well...but I'm too lazy to sit under one. I'd rather do the soft bonnet and sit back and read, surf the net or take a quick nap. I also put the 'caption on' on my TV and watch a movie.
Thanx ladies. Ill have to check the wattage on mine. I also suspect u r right, sweetcocoa re: the snug thing...I dont know what Ill do when my hair graduates to grey rollers because the purple ones barely fit now!!!
