Sorry it's been awhile. I will leave you with a picture of what has been occupying most of my time lately:
YES! I got a puppy!
As I speak, she is crawling all over my laptop, so as you can imagine - I have been a little bit preoccupied lately. But I have a review that needs posting. And it's one of the best ones yet.
So the great people from Misikko got in touch with me in order to review one of their professional hairdryers. Now I am going to be straight with you here, ladies. I effing hate blowdrying my hair. It's annoying. So when I got this inquiry, I basically said to myself: if this bomb-ass hairdryer can't change my mind about blowdrying my hair, then I will be an air-dryer for life.
I've had the shitty hairdryers before. The Revlon ones that are $30 and last for a year before they start smelling like you lit a cat on fire in the bathroom. So when I was given the opportunity to try one that was actually of professional quality - I said hey, rock my world, Hana. Change my mind about the hair drying game.
So Misikko has a ton of professional blow dryers up for grabs (you can view them all via that link), but I had the pleasure of rocking out with the HANAair Professional Hair Dryer. HANA is a great salon brand that is super high-end and if you have never used one of their hair dryers, I'm gonna let you in on a little secret: they freaking rule.
But spoiler alert here, they are pretty pricey. So while I had the honor of reviewing this little gem, keep in mind that they are on the higher end of the price spectrum. But if you're tired of paying $30 for hair dryers that leave your bathroom smelling like burnt hair after a few months of use, it's not a bad investment. This dryer runs $194 through Misikko's website, but that's a pretty significant discount since it usually runs over $300.
The number one thing that I like about this dryer is that is cuts your drying time down so freaking much. It typically takes me 30-35 minutes to dry my mop, but with this, I can dry it with a cooler heat setting (meaning I'm not frying my hair) and get done in a shorter amount of time. It took me under 15 minutes all three times I used it prior to writing this. It's beautiful. I didn't feel like I was drying out my hair with a fiery blast of heat, either. It does a great job of keeping the moisture alive and keeping frizz to a minimum. If you aren't a fan of drying and then straightening - this dryer will be a godsend since it prevents a poofy, frizzy finish.
It features three different heat settings, two fan speeds, a ceramic heater, a "cold blast", and (HERE WAS THE CLINCHER FOR ME) - ion technology that cuts down on static electricity. CAN YOU DIG IT LADIES??? DOES ANYBODY EXPERIENCE THE SAME PAIN THAT I FEEL WITH STATIC IN THE WINTER??!? Plus that same technology promotes healthier, shinier hair. So... consider that a definite win/win.
So my consensus? This dryer rocks. Sure it's pricey but I think there comes a point where it's worth it to pay a little bit more for a product if it means a longer lifespan and better quality. This dryer comes with a 2 year warranty, as well. So that's awesome, too. Misikko offers a ton of great products, and this is just one of them. Whether you're in the market for a new ceramic flat iron or hair care accessories, the site has got you covered.
I want to thank the folks at Misikko (here's looking at you, John) for the awesome package they sent me and for giving me this opportunity. The company is amazing alone and next time you girls need high-quality, professional hair styling tools, you'd be crazy to shop anywhere else. Thanks for reading!
