What Is A Hair Dryer Diffuser Used For

In fact, this accessory is called a fan hood (or “drying hood” as we often say in the salon). Its core principle is to gently expand the area of the originally concentrated airflow to prevent strong winds from blowing the natural texture of the hair. Whether you have curly, slightly curly or easily fried hair, it is an artifact for safe blow-drying and strengthening hair form. It does not blow the hair flat, but uses its finger-like comb teeth to hold the hair up and distribute the heat evenly. It can not only greatly reduce thermal damage and frizz, but also help you shape the elastic and full volume without worrying about the shape being blown away by the strong wind.

Gently Break Up Airflow And Retain Hair Texture

The most basic function of the wind shield is to change the form of the wind blowing out. An ordinary flat-head nozzle will concentrate the wind into a strong straight line, which is, too violent for the more fragile hair structure. The air dispersion hood can spread the air flow over a large area. This practice of dispersing the wind just stops the “storm” that usually blows the head and makes the hair fly around “. This is too important to preserve the original texture of the hair. After the wind becomes soft, it can slowly dry the hair without blowing away the natural curly hair, leaving the internal structure of the hair intact during the drying process.

Curly Hair, Sofa And Frizzy Hair “Magic Weapon”

Although in theory, it can be used for any hair, it is definitely an exclusive weapon for people with curly hair, micro-curls and natural sofas (prone to frizz). This kind of hair is naturally dry, and when it is blown 1 by high-speed and strong wind, the original curl will fall apart directly. The core idea of dealing with this textured hair is always to conform to and strengthen its shape, not to destroy it. When you use an ordinary hair dryer, you will often blow the curl straight or make a dead knot, making a mess. However, the wind-dispersing cover knows how to “respect” the natural direction of curly hair. It can dry your hair in the safest way possible and let the waves take shape naturally, rather than blowing your hair into a stiff or frizzy state.

How Do Those Combs Hold Up Their Hair?

The most conspicuous feature of the appearance of the air dispersion hood is the comb teeth like fingers inside. Don’t think this is just a shape, it plays a big role in mechanics, far more than blow dry. When blowing your head, you can directly use these “fingers” to hold your hair up from the end of your hair and push it to the scalp. At ordinary times, we rely on gravity to dry naturally or blow with straight wind, and the hair is easily stuck on the scalp, but with these comb teeth to support the weight, the heat can be evenly transmitted from the hair tail to the hair root. It is this small design that injects a strong sense of fluffiness and three-dimensionality into the hair. The air feeling that the hair roots stand naturally cannot be dried by nature alone.

Reduce Heat Damage And Smooth Frizz

Because the device spreads the heat evenly over a large area, rather than staring at a piece of scalp to roast fiercely, heat damage is minimized. You should know that local high temperature is especially easy to burn hair scales, causing hair to break and dry. In addition, friction is actually the biggest culprit for the loss of smooth hair. The hair stays in the groove of the baking cover honestly, and does not rub around, and the frizz will naturally decrease greatly. Such a set of gentle and uniform drying process, the effect is the kind of healthy texture with luster. Those Q-bombs and rich curls can only be perfectly presented by this way of not interfering with their natural state.
