Have a seat, let’s chat. So tell me, what kind of hairdryer do you use? I only ask because I seem to go through them like toilet paper. I remember my first hairdryer. I had old faithful for a loooong time. Don’t know what brand she was. Then mom got me this really ultra quiet one that lasted about two years. I then went through two of the exact same hairdryer that my suitemate in college introduced me to. They overheated and shot blue sparks out at my head. I dropped a few here and there. Now my current hairdryer is cutting on and off at random, even when it is switched on. It also shot blue sparks at me, but they came from the cord area where it connects to the bottom of the hairdryer! Now that’s a new one!

Bottom line, I have no luck with them. I’m wondering if I should just bite the bullet on one of those super nice ones. You know, the ones you have to buy at Sally’s Beauty Supply instead of aisle seven at Target. But I don’t want to drop a bunch of cash on one to have it last no longer than my $30 ones. In other words, I need something durable. Like I said, I seem to make a habit of dropping them (usually on my toe). My hair is fast approaching the crack of my ass and looks just like Jessica Simpson’s in Dukes of Hazzard is stick straight and has split end starting just above my ears. To add insult to injury, I flat iron the hell out of it right after a 15 minute blow dry. It makes it nice and shiny so you barely notice all the split ends and flyaways. Because of all of these fuzzies, I do need something with a cool button/switch. I just don’t go to the beach often cause let me just say YIKES. I’m trying to grow it out a bit longer so I can hack 10 inches off for Locks of Love and still have “long” hair by a hairdresser’s standard (a few inches blow my shoulders).

So now that you’re through the maze of bad jokes, any suggestions for #744?

    I have the Conair 1600…cheapest you can go at Walmart but that really won’t help you much because I MIGHT blowdry once a week! LOL But I do also use the straight iron to hide those split ends!
