Hooded Dryer Recommendation

[webby]

I just wanted to share my joy with you all. I bought a Highlander Venus Dryer - the same dryer that they use at my salon. I bought last April, because I thought it was going to be hotter and give more air than my portable dryer.

Anyway, the Venus never got as hot as the one in the salon, but I didn't realize this until I went to NYC and got my "wig" done. So, I finally called the company and surprisingly they didn't even hesitate to send me a brand new one. I picked up last night and that thing gets <font color="red"> HOT!!! </font> . Finally, I won't have to sit under the dryer all day and night.

I just wanted to share that with you all in case you were in the market for a hooded dryer.

Thank you, I am gonna call Pibbs because my hair still takes THREE HOURS to dry when it is the same one that I used at the hairdresser.

I paid $129 at Sally's, but the stupid thing is you have to buy the handle and wheels separately for about $30. If you don't buy the wheels you don't get the height...the dryer will sit about a foot lower than it should.

Is Pibbs a portable or salon dryer? My hair is just past my chin and it takes me over an hour. When it was really long, it took about 5 hours and sometimes the ends would still be somewhat damp.

It's a standing salon dryer. The one that gets really hot (so much so that u need the little ear covers)

Dang, I wish I had posted here BEFORE I bought my dryer. I would love to have compared the two and then make a decision. How much did the Pibbs cost?

Well, I'm really happy with what I have, so much so, that I had to turn the temp down when I washed my hair.

I got the Pibbs 514 and it was 299 plus tax. even tho it wasn't my money, it was worth every penny

Hey, it was still good tender, regardless to who's pocket it came from.

I'm going to look into the Pibbs and if I like it better, I'll sell what I have on E-Bay and replace my "precious".
