Reader Question: Do I Have to Buy An Expensive Blow Dryer?

Hey Jamie,

I recently broke my hair dryer AND my flat iron! Do you have any recommendations for good replacements? I didn’t realize how expensive they both are now. I have naturally straight hair and it doesn’t take very long to dry.

Thanks,

Hey S!

Ugh, that sucks. I’m wondering how you broke BOTH of those at the same time? I always love a good story…anyway, from what you’re telling me, it sounds like you don’t really need a fancy blowdryer since your hair isn’t thick or hard to manage. Personally, I’d invest more money into a flat iron for your hair type since a good flat iron will cause less damage and will last you a long time (I’ve had mine for years!). Here are a few recommendations, specifically for naturally straight, easy to manage hair:
