I have one that I purchased from BeautyBeautyUSA. The Model # is LR-08. The cost is $78.00 Plus tax and shipping. They never have a picture of it on their site so here it is from my photo album:
Someone just PM'd me about the contact info for BBUSA. I ordered mine back in 2004. Their website has been acting funky for a while but I remembered they are in NY I Yahoo-ed:

It is not a dryer. It actually infuses your hair with warm steam. Like sitting in a steam room.
I got mine off the salonrus website
My hair feels softer, more moisturized. I was shedding at the beginning of the winter and after the FIRST steam my shedding completely stopped. If I steam and then do a wash and go my hair looks and feels fabulous.
I highly recommend getting a steamer. Its especially good for the cold months.
My hair has changed, it's not dry anymore. It doesn't get dry between washings and it stays soft. I don't have to do a lot of product additions during the week to keep it moisturized. I LOVE IT!
I love my steamer. My hair is so much more moisturized and breaks much less. It melts away my new growth, and it makes my hair so soft. I highly recommend it.
My hair is much softer now, I no longer have chronic dryness that used to plague my hair initially.
Or Better yet.... imagine an Iron on the Steam Setting upright, there is a constant emitting of Steam coming from the Hood of the Steamer that is infusing your hair with Moisture.
You fill the Reservoir with Distilled Water, Set the Timer, Wait and Steam away. It feels:
For me, it has really helped cure my dryness. It makes detangling a breeze and it just feels wonderfully therapeutic.
It also makes your Conditioners "perform" at Maximal Levels. If You have a Conditioner that is 'so-so' the Steamer will help boost it up a notch.
Your Good Conditioners will be Like Conditioner on Steroids......
It's a Great Feeling. And By Far, the Best Investment I've made on my Quest for "Healthy Hair"
Add a few drops of peppermint oil to your condish and sit under the steamer - so beautiful on the scalp!
