Revlon RV484 Ion Hair Dryer

I have curly, medium-length hair.I bought this dryer in the begining of the year thinking it would produce less frizz. After using it for 6 months (always on the warm settling, not hot), it fried my hair. My hair has never been this dry and unmanagable. Since the dryer was the only thing I changed in my hair-care regiment, I figured that was the answer. When I couldn't stand it any more, I started using my old non-ionic blow dryer. Within two weeks, I noticed my hair wasn't as dry and frizzy. I hate this dryer because of all the damage it did to my hair. And, although I did not experience the sparks, it short-circuit on me on a weekly basis. I don't recommend this product to anyone, especially for people with curly, think hair.

I have owned this dryer for about 6 months. Over the last few months I have noticed the ends of my hair have been dry, frizzy and brittle. My hair has never been like this before. This morning while drying my hair, I noticed a bad smell and then saw clumps of hair with the ends melted together on the floor and bathroom counter. This dryer is a hazard and I cannot believe they are still selling them with all the other complaints I have read about them that date back to 2006! Don't buy this product!

I bought this hairdryer thinking it did not have the ceramic function because none of the literature said anything about it, yet when the dryer arrived, the word CERAMIC was all over it. I was hoping to get the old dryer without the ceramic feature.

Mine caught fire this morning- also at the spot where the cord meets the dryer. Pop, fire, and a singed wrist... I dropped it on the floor, which is luckily tile, so it only left a black mark rather than catching the floor on fire. What is up with this dryer????

I decided to try an inexpensive hair dryer for the first time since money was tight, and now I really regret it. I have very thick long hair and it took the hair dryer much longer to dry my hair than my old one. After a couple uses I noticed the smell of burning hair and thought maybe it was a little too hot but my hair seemed fine so I didn't really worry about it. Then I began to notice after I showered and started to comb my wet hair a lot more hair than normal was falling out. It was falling out in thick strands which has never happened to me before. I thought maybe it was stress or horomones since I recently had a baby but the more I used the dryer I realized the intense heat was burning off and damaging my hair! Even now that I've stopped using it my hair is still fragile from the dryer and still comes out in clumps after I shower. Please stay away from this dryer! I'm glad mine never shot sparks like the other reviews I saw but it doesn't surprise me.
