for years i've been hating my hair. i have long thick and wavy hair, and some days it would be super frizzy and i will wake up looking like a lion. my sister has more curly hair than mine, so back when we were in high school, she wanted to get her hair rebonded, so we both got that. but it just made the current hair straight, but the new hair would still be wavy. i did smoothing couple times more after that, but since i got married and had babies, i never did anything to my hair anymore except for coloring it. and i have super thick hair so when it gets super thick, it takes ages to dry it even using my previous hair dryer. it's not the hair dryer fault anyway.. it's just a travel hair dryer and it's only 400 W, so it takes hours to dry my hair. when we were about to go to japan, i learned about hairbeauron straightener and curler and almost bought it if i could see it. but we didn't find it so even though my husband told me to just buy it, i decided not to.
but i get bored drying my hair using my old hair dryer, so i told him to buy me a new one. i have no idea which one to get since there are so many influencer promoting dyson, remington and tescom, and all of them are quite expensive, so i totally have no idea. then my husband told me to take a look at xiaomi hair dryer. he showed me some pictures and videos and i just said okay. then the package came, and i tried it the first time and i can't believe the result!

the box |
this is the description from aliexpress website: soocas hairdryer incorporates the japanese aesthetic concept. it's simple, white and the red light of the low-gray silver has a modern sense. the integrated design, the machine is seamless without screws. with a though, sharp lines, the expression of avant-garde attitude. all aluminium alloy barrel, unlike traditional ABS plastic shells, is made of higher-cost all-alumunium alloy material, and the shimmering metal body makes it possible to effectively reduce the temperature of the hair dryer.
the innovative diversion design has achieved greater air volume. through the conical conducting fluid placed at the air outlet, the outer diameter of the cone is gradually increased along the wind direction, and gradually diverged under the action of the conical guiding fluid, which greatly reduces the resistance. high air volume is inseparable from the choice of blades and motors. the larger the fan blades, the greater the required pneumatic power, and the stronger the air flow.
specially designed large blades, with a strong DC motor, can significantly increase the air flow. using 1800 W power, softer than 2000 W, stronger than 1000W, is just good power. without drying the hair, it blows fast enough and saves your valuable time. soocas hair dryer dual channel output tens of millions, high concentration of negative ions to show release layer, maintain moisture and shine. 360 rotating air nozzle, long and flat shape, focus on the wind blowing your favorite hairstyle.

back of the box |
the packaging: when it first came, i can't believe how big the box is! i knew that the hair dryer is not bendable, but i didn't think that it would be that big. the box is quite sturdy but not too heavy since the hair dryer is not that heavy either. there's the picture of the hair dryer at front and when you slide it out, you can see a plastic separator that holds the hair dryer at top and below it you can see the nozzle and travelling pouch.

the hair dryer inside |
the product: the hair dryer has all aluminium body so it's not that heavy and it has reddish rim. it has separate nozzle that has double insulated design so you can touch it without being scorched by the heat. the cable is quite long so you don't need to stand closely to the electrical outlet. it also comes with built-in cable tie. it only has two buttons, one is the on-off button and the other is the setting button. there are three heat setting, the top is constant heat so the hair dryer will only use 57 degree heat, the second one is flash heat so it's hotter than the first one to dry your hair really quick, the third one is the coo air setting so you can set your hair.

with the separate nozzle |
the result: if you dry your hair from wet hair, it would take about 5 minutes with flash heat setting and then cool it off. if you use the constant heat setting, it would definitely take longer but still faster than when i use my previous hair dryer. and the cool air setting is a game changer. i used to have frizzy hair, but since i use the cool air setting to cool off my hair after drying it, the frizziness is settling down. all i need to do is putting a bit of hair oil before and after drying my hair and my hair would look sleek and soft. though not super sleek like the one you look in the advertisement, but still sleeker than i used to have.

before: my frizzy hair after: more sleek hair without much styling |
so, totally you would see that i love this hair dryer. it's quite affordable and it works really well. i totally have no idea that ionic hair dryer could do much to your hair. i used to think that it's just another marketing gimmick, but after using it myself, i have to say that it's true! even my husband commented that i now have better hair! my only cons with this hair dryer is it's not bendable, so it takes up quite a space in my closet. i wouldn't be able to bring it when i'm travelling since it would take much space in my baggage as well. oh well... i can survive several days without it.. so i guess it's a win for now. if you're looking for new hair dryer or if you are tempted by lots of influencer using more expensive hair dryer but you don't have the budget, i think you should try this one.
