A hair dryer, hairdryer or blow dryer is an electromechanical device that blows ambient or hot air over damp hair to speed the evaporation of water to dry the hair.
There is also a considerable difference between the two devices when it comes to temperature. Blow dryers are known to blow out air that is concentrated. Therefore the temperature of the hairdryer is relatively less. The Hair Dryers rely on electricity and steam to generate warm air.
Is blow drying your hair bad? Correct blow drying will not harm your hair. However, applying heat to your hair when it is already dry can cause brittleness, breakage, dullness and dryness. The secret to safe blow drying is good timing and the proper use of tools and products.
