By now you must have heard and most likely already used Ionic hair dryer. But do you really know why the Ionic technology, what’s behind it? What are the benefits of Ionic hair dryer?
Ions?
Ions are molecules that have gained or lost an electrical charge. It is any atom or group of atoms that bears one or more positive or negative electrical charges. Positively charged ions are called cations; negatively charged ions, anions.1 They are created in nature as air molecules break apart due to sunlight, radiation, and moving air and water. But they can also be created artificially (every shower can be ion generator). Negative ions have positive effect on people and positive ions might have negative effect on people! Feeling good when showering, near the waterfalls, at the beach comes from the pleasure of the activity itself, but also because of the negative ions produced there.
Ionic Hair Dryer
An ionic hair dryer is a hair dryer that gives off a negative ionic charge with warm air. As hair color artist and celebrity colorist Jeremy Tardo says: “The negative ions from the dryer counteract with positive ionic charges in your hair, which are caused by damage to your hair’s cuticle… Water also has a positive ionic charge, so the negative ionic charge from an ionic blow dryer will actually repel the water, causing your hair to dry more quickly.”. So, beside the fact that ionic hair dryer will help you dry your hair faster or with less heat (which is, of course a major convenience), ionic hair dryer helps seal the strands' cuticles and retain moisture. This is why hair dried with ionic hair dryer will look and feel healthier, smoother, and frizz-free.
Although ionic hair dryers are mostly equipped to produce negative ions (all ionic hair dryers are such), newer, more advanced ionic hair dryers can have a setting to supply both positively or negatively charged ions, per your need. Positively charged ions will produce hair with more volume, and curlier hair; while negatively charged ions will produce silky, smooth and shiny salon finish hair.
Beside the looks you are achieving with ionic hair dryer, the benefit of faster hair drying time, or lower temperature, is that it reduces heat damage to your hair!
When you are looking for ionic hair dryer make sure to shop smart. Buying a hair dryer is more than just buying a machine that blows hot air. Keep in mind that the quality of your hair largely depends on how you treat it (externally), and a hair dryer is part of it.
