I bought the T3 about 2 years ago and I feel like its benefits are kind of waining (sp). Every now and then I get a spark and I feel like it is damaging my hair. I bought the dryer on ebay though so maybe it was a factory return or something.
How long have you ladies had yours? I was thinking of getting a BabyLiss instead of T3 this time around.
I got the T3 Evolution for Christmas 2005 and I love it. I had been using some cheapy dryer before, which was heavier and took forever to dry my hair. The T3 dries my thick hair really quickly and it has drastically helped cut down on frizz (esp. when used with Phyto Defrisant!) It is lightweight and quieter than most.
However, like I mentioned, I have a ton of hair - plus it is naturally wavy and likes to be puffy and frizzy, which means that for me, the T3 is worth the cost because of its frizz-fighting abilities. For someone who has finer hair or no frizz problems, perhaps the T3 would not bring enough value for the money. Let me know if you have any other questions!
