Customer Reviews of T3 Tourmaline 83808 Professional Featherweight Ceramic Ionic Hair Dryer
Customer Review: Love it! Get one!
Summary: 5 Stars
I read a lot of online reviews of this product before buying it. I liked the results of my hairdresser using hers on me (although mine is even nicer because it has all the temperature controls that hers doesn't). My hair needs to be babied and this dryer leaves it softer than it has ever felt after being dried electrically. It is lightweight and my Mom asks to use it all the time and she's not even someone who normally gets excited about stuff like this!
I felt weird spending $160 on a hairdryer (I got it online from beautyzone), but now I wish I'd had one as soon as they came out. YES, it's worth it. I can't speak as much to the thick hair/drying time issue because my hair is on the fine side, but it definitely does seem that drying time is reduced. It helps that you can make the temp really hot if you want. I love the button I can hold down with my thumb to make the temp go cool for as long as I hold it down, so I can 'lock in' the curl or whatever I've been doing to my hair style-wise after using a heat setting. Ladies, even if you don't do anything much to your hair when you blow dry it, you will love this dryer simply because it does NOT leave your hair with that fried, blow-dried feeling. Personally, I will never go back to the old kind.
Customer Review: My wife and daughter were thrilled
Summary: 5 Stars
I knew that ceramics were supposed to be the best... but which manufacturer??? which model??? which features??? I also knew from an article I had read, but lost, that the professionals liked certain ceramic dryers that were priced in the 200 to 300 dollar range, eschewing the much more expensive models for the most part, except for one that cost about 750 ( if memory serves me correctly). I called someone who knew someone who knew someone, and learned that this is the one the real pros order by the boxload, or that the super pros are given, and actually use. The names??? I can not drop them, under penalty of split ends or worse. These same pros are so famous, working for the beautiful people, that they are also given and encouraged to use much more expensive dryers, but they either politely decline, or more often than not, accept and then give the ultra expensive models to their supermodel clientele etc ( I am talking about dryers costing 1500 and up that are left in the box by the pros in the know who prefer and actually use this one.) And the females in my life are still in awe of what this product can do in so little time with no excessive heat ( translation: it gets the job done right, and in short order without frying their hair)

Customer Review: Light, Quiet, Fantastic and Fast!
Summary: 5 Stars
After having read the majority of the reviews here, I'm happy to report that this dryer is fast and very lightweight. My hairdresser who uses this dryer daily had recommended it to me awhile back. Unfortunately, I bought back then what I thought was a better more economical option: an Andis Ionic hairdryer with a retractable cord and folding handle. While very light weight and space-saving, I soon learned after several months of frequent use that either the cord was going to fray from from the retracting into the handle or worse, the handle could break from folding. Well, it did. After the handle broke, I decided to purchase this hair dryer and I regret not having done so sooner. What a great hairdryer - very lightweight, dries hair quickly to a smooth satiny shine. I have straight, medium length, medium thickness hair that usually would take at least 45 minutes to dry. Well, the T3 cut the drying time to 14 minutes and that's taking my time. The T3 dryer is also very quiet and despite having only 2 speeds and a cold shot button, does the job quite nicely and I don't miss having all of the other speeds. This was well worth the price and I wouldn't ordinarily spend this much on a hair dryer. But the results are well worth it. Highly recommend!Customer Review: I'm a believer!!!!

I'll be the first one to confess that whenever something new comes out in the beauty market, i am eager to try it. But even I was skeptical about the claims this hair dryer made. Plus, the price kept me in a pre-contemplative state for a long time. Finally after talking to someone who actually owned and used the dryer, i decided to spring for it. I have really curly, frizzy hair and it's about 13 inches long. If there is a drop of moisture in the air, I have to consider it a bad hair day. Forget about blowing my hair straight. When I first used this hair dryer, it was in the middle of July, sticky, and rainy outside. Within 15 minutes (usually takes me 35 mintues for a blow out), i had blown my hair STRAIGHT!!!! and, it's shiny too. Each section took about 2 minutes to complete. It looks great. I don't care about the technology, all I know is it works. If you have had a lifetime of frizzy, unruly, dry or dull hair. Try this dryer. You won't be disappointed. I didn't give it 5 stars b/c it is prohibitively expensive and amazon is not considered an authorized dealer so I was not able to get the warranty either. I have a Solano that I also love but it is really heavy and it does take much longer to make my hair presentable.Customer Review: Better than my old $10 hair dryer...
Summary: 3 Stars
Well, my last hair dryer cost about 10 dollars and for the most part this one is much nicer, and quieter, and I guess it dries my hair faster. It certainly looks nicer.
What I don't like about it is the handle. When my hands are slightly damp it can be hard to hold on to properly and my biggest problem is I keep turning it off when I'm really just trying to hold it. The on/off switch easily toggles back and forth right there in the middle of the handle and while I am drying my hair I will accidentally hit it with the palm of my hand or my fingers and turn it off. It drives me nuts.
I have also set it on the counter and then it has either slipped or gotten knocked onto the floor - it has a very sleek design which looks cool but seems to make it harder to set on a small bathroom countertop. I may be a bit clumsier than most, but I must say with my clunky, ugly $10 hairdryer I never accidentally turned it off OR dropped it on the floor.
It certainly looks nice, though, and the cool air button is quite handy. I just need a hook to hang it on my wall and an on/off button that slides instead of flipping. Oh, and maybe a refund of 2/3 my purchase price because I really think it's overpriced.
