When the device heats up the air to a critical level of more than 150 ° C, the device will start to work for cooling. Such features exclude overdrying and damage to hair shafts.

Despite the power of professional and household models, the company's products do not stand out for their large size, the produced hair dryers are quite light. A distinctive feature is placing the motor in the handle of the hair dryer. This eliminates situations where curls can get stuck in the motor during operation.
Among the features that distinguish the hair dryers of this manufacturer from the products of other brands, it is worth noting the silent operation of the devices. This was achieved by equipping the devices with a large number of impeller blades.

For protection, they are equipped with additional filters. This design provides air intake from below, and then it comes out in powerful streams through the central opening of the hair dryer.
The devices operate in 3 speed modes - fast for drying, stacking mode and standard. They differ in heating level, the temperature will vary from 100 ° C to 280 ° C.
The mass of the manufactured devices is 630 g. Due to the correctly distributed load, it is possible to avoid excessive stress in the wrist during the manipulation of the hair.
