Is the BaBylissPRO Nano Light good for thick hair?

Yes. Its high airflow does most of the work, so thick or long hair dries quickly even though it is rated at 1400 watts. Very coarse hair may still want a hotter full-size salon dryer.

Why is my dryer blowing cold air?

The rear filter is likely clogged with lint and hair. Clean it and the hot air should return; the dryer is designed to stop heating when airflow is blocked.

Does it work overseas?

Yes, it is dual voltage. You will still need the right plug adapter for the country you are in.

How many heat and speed settings does it have?

Nine heat settings and nine speed settings, so you can dial in low heat with high airflow or the reverse.

Is it lighter than a standard salon dryer?

Yes. The compact body is noticeably lighter than full-size 1800–2000-watt salon dryers, which helps during long styling sessions.

What comes in the box?

The dryer and its concentrator nozzle. Check the listing for any additional attachments before buying.

Our take on the BaBylissPRO The Nano Light High-Speed Ionic Dryer

The BaBylissPRO Nano Light is a 1400-watt ionic hair dryer built around a high-speed brushless-style motor, so it moves a lot of air through a smaller, lighter body than a conventional salon dryer. It offers nine heat and nine speed combinations plus dual voltage, which makes it a travel-friendly option for people who dry thick or long hair fast. Against full-size salon dryers it trades raw wattage for airflow and weight, and owners tend to praise the speed and shine while noting the filter needs regular cleaning. It suits frequent dryers, stylists on the move and anyone who wants a compact dryer with fine control over heat and speed.
