An Amazon reviewer said: “My hair dried twice as fast without crazy hot heat! It’s very quiet too! The tools are a bonus. Nice instruction booklet on how to use this product. Why did I wait so long to purchase!!”
- Volumizing

TikTok likely made you want to buy this—and for good reason. This brush dryer cuts your drying time in half, drying and straightening hair in one step. The round brush design adds volume and bounce to hair without needing extra tools.

An Amazon reviewer said: “I hated waiting for my hair to dry to style my hair; it took forever. I’m a stylist, and blow drying your own hair is not easy . This makes my life so easy , so simple, my hair becomes so soft and silky. Easy to use and doesn’t overheat. Now I can easily do my hair even with two kids.”

- Ventilated cap for seamless airflow
- Takes a long time to dry long hair
For on-the-go use or when you simply want to rest your arms, slip this hooded dryer onto your traditional version and adjust the straps on your head for a snug fit. It fits most handheld dryers and has ventilation holes for seamless, consistent airflow. Since this doesn’t push heat directly on the hair but rather through a long tunnel to the hooded attachment, it’s a godsend for natural hair looking to limit heat contact.
Best for: Natural or curly hair
Attachments: None
Amazon rating: 4.4/5 stars
An Amazon reviewer said: “Quick and easy to use. I attached it my hand hair dryer and the ease of it. I love it’s not bulky. Something you can carry along in your luggage. I highly recommend it if you’re looking for something that is more durable and puts out great heat.”
- Multiple attachments for all hair types
- Learning curve
If we’re talking best-in-class, Dyson stands out amongst the crowd. The thousands of reviews touting its impressive results—and gorgeous “after” clips we see on TikTok—prove its price tag is worth the investment. At its core, Dyson is every bit a hair dryer that dispenses a jolt of air for fast-drying hair sessions. Other attachments include a diffuser, flyaway, concentrator, gentle air, and a wide-tooth comb to cater to all textures and lengths.
Best for: All hair types

Amazon rating: 4.3/5 stars
An Amazon reviewer said: “I had a good hairdryer, at least I thought so…SuperSonic cut dry time in half. It doesn’t get your hair super hot like ordinary hairdryers; therefore, it doesn’t damage your hair as much. It was like going from a Corolla to a Ferrari! I highly recommend it! Best purchase ever!”
