BaByliss 2100 W Salon Light Hair Dryer

Product Information

There are three heat and two power settings, a cold shot button and a 3m cable – which is amongst the longest on dryers we’ve tested.

We assume this is where the Salon Light gets its name from; because it’s lighter than other BaByliss models because it’s certainly not the lightest hair dryer around. Thanks to its ionic technology and ceramic heating element, the BaByliss 2100 Salon Light again punches above its weight, leaving our hair looking shiny and smooth. It doesn’t get too hot during use, either, is easy to attach and remove, and doesn’t rotate mid-dry unless we want it to.The Salon Light weighs marginally less, at 540g versus 650g, and elsewhere in the Salon Light’s favour is that its 3m cable is 80cm longer than that of the Orchid. It outperforms some of its more expensive competitors in drying time, smoothness and ease-of-use, plus it’s largely a well-designed piece of kit. uk","name":"United Kingdom"},{"domain":"de","name":"Germany"},{"domain":"ca","name":"Canada"},{"domain":"es","name":"Spain"},{"domain":"com. BaByliss currently sells 12 different models of hair dryer, many with its distinctive curved design and often in a variety of colours.

The lowest heat setting on the Salon Light is a little weaker than a number of its rivals, including the BaByliss Diamond, but its lowest power setting is comparable to that on the Dyson, which goes some way to negate this weakness. Travel dryers from TRESemmé and Remington have produced faster times, but they lack the conditioning technology so we’re willing to make that sacrifice for hair that’s in better condition.It feels much cooler than the lowest heat setting, and it helped set our style in a way even the Dyson fails to do. The BaByliss 2100 Salon Light would be Goldilocks’ ideal hair dryer: it’s not too heavy, not too loud, not too cheap and not too expensive. main_aff_id":"babylisspro06-20","aff_ids":[{"country":"com","aff_id":"babylisspro06-20"},{"country":"co.

It’s certainly adequate enough for blasting your hair quickly when you don’t want to make too much noise, or simply want to remove excess moisture from your hair but you’re not interested in a full blow dry. It’s not alone in using this tech: a large number of the most popular hair dryers have this feature. Despite their differences on paper, drying time is similar and they both left our hair equally soft and shiny.In a market saturated with black hair dryers, the Salon Light’s shiny red shell is a refreshing change.
