This is the professional hair dryer preferred by Italy’s finest parrucchieres for its power, low noise level, and a patented safety feature that prevents hair from getting drawn into its fan motor. Available exclusively from Hammacher Schlemmer, the hair dryer has a specially designed metal filter that keeps hair, dust, and dirt from entering the air intake. Combining powerful air flow and quiet operation, this 1,400-watt hair dryer cuts hair styling time in half over home models. The unit’s tourmaline interior releases negatively charged ions when heated to eliminate frizz and static electricity from hair. The ions also break down water droplets to increase the rate of evaporation, reducing the time hair is exposed to high heat that can remove vital nutrients. With two temperature settings, two air flow speeds, and a cool shot button. Includes two concentrating nozzles for more control over setting waves. Plugs into AC with nine ft. cord. (1 1/2 lbs.)
