Everyone cares about their appearance and their hair. Dry the curls, put them in a beautiful hairstyle - this is how every morning of the fair sex begins. Hair dryers will help you save time, keep your hair from drying out and make the entire styling process easier. In this article we will talk about Braun models, their advantages and disadvantages, usage features and selection rules.

In a number of hair care devices, hairdryer brushes stand in a special place, because these accessories can perform the functions of a hair dryer, curling iron, and combs. According to the method of fixing the nozzles, there are hair dryers with a fixed and a rotating brush.

Each type has its own advantages and disadvantages. Hair dryers with a fixed nozzle are more reliable and durable, but require some skill to use. Hair dryers with a rotating nozzle are convenient and easy to use. Even individuals who do not understand anything in hairdressing can easily make themselves a magical hairstyle with the help of such an accessory.

The advantages of Braun hair dryers are:

• affordability;
• good quality;
• the presence of several nozzles;
• the ability to control the temperature of the outgoing air;
• compactness and low weight.

The disadvantages include:

• small number of models;
• lack of a ruler with a rotating brush.

For greater clarity, the main technical characteristics of Braun hair dryers are arranged in a table.

As you can see from the above data, each model has its own bonuses: AS720 it is a function of ionizing the exhaust air for a more gentle drying and styling of hair, AS530 - steam to help you style clean, dry hair. Ceramic coating implemented in the model AS330, keeps your curls from overheating while drying.

When choosing a model of a hairdryer, be sure to pay attention to such indicators.

• Material of the body and individual elements. Of course, for a home hair dryer, these are not as important characteristics as for professional devices, but nevertheless, the service life of your device depends on the quality of the raw materials.
• The size and number of nozzles. Removable parts (attachments) must be securely attached to the body and easily removed if it becomes necessary to change the brush. Also pay attention to the material of the bristles - they can be made of plastic, natural fibers, or a combination of both.
• The power of the device. The more power, the faster and better the hair dryer dries hair. With short and thin hair, this criterion is not so important, but only if you are the owner of long, thick and heavy braids.
• Availability of additional functions. A very important plus is the presence of an ionizer, because ionization allows you to more carefully dry your hair, and also makes styling easier. The presence of a steam generator in the design also refers to the additional advantages of any model.
• The power cord must be long enoughto ensure your styling comfort. A length equal to two meters or more is considered convenient.
• The presence of several temperature regimes and the ability to adjust the speed of the outgoing air flow.

Let us recall several important points from the instruction manual for the device.

• Never use this apparatus near open water. Moisture should not get on it.
• Keep the hair dryer out of the reach of children and pets. Do not leave the appliance unattended or let it play. Do not allow people with disabilities to use the hairdryer.
• Do not wrap the power cord around the device. Of course, this way you save space for storing accessories, but at the same time reduce its service life. Microscopic kinks in metal wires that occur with this storage method will soon lead to breakage and failure of the power supply cable.
• Do not try to repair the hair dryer yourself if it breaks down. You'd better trust the professionals.

Also, do not forget about the individual characteristics of your hair when styling. So, advice for owners of long and thick hair.

• After washing your hair, dry your hair lightly with a towel.
• For a more durable and "springy" styling, you can apply mousse.
• Now you need to divide the hair into the upper and lower parts, while pinning the "crown" strands with hairpins (so as not to interfere).
• If you took a larger diameter brush attachment, then separate the strand more for drying and styling. Comb it lightly and wind it around the hair dryer. Wait until the hair is completely dry and carefully release the hair dryer from the curled curl. For a natural curling effect, wind one strand towards your face, and the next strand vice versa.
• After you dry and style all the loose strands, let go of the bobbed hair and do the same steps with it as with the lower one.
• Combing your hair after styling is not recommended.

If you have medium hair length, consider the following guidelines.

• To create small curls, use the Narrow Nozzle as described above.
• To round off the ends of your hair and create extra volume, you will need a larger brush attachment. When drying wet hair, start from the back of the head. In this case, it is important to start from the very roots, pressing the curls against the bristles. After laying the back of the head, start moving towards the temples, first on one side, then on the other. After drying the upper strands at the roots, slightly stretch and wind only the ends of the strands.

If you have a square, then to style it, you will need to stab the crown strands, first lay the back of the head (as recommended for owners of medium hair) and the side strands, and then, loosening the fixed hair, dry and style them in the same way. Owners of boyish, very short haircuts do not seem to need a hairdryer, but here you can experiment. Of course, only a very small attachment is useful here. Go for it, create, and the Braun hair dryer will be your indispensable assistant!
