BaByliss Pro Thermal Ionic Rollabout Dryer

[mg1979]

I was thinking of ordering the BaByliss Pro Thermal Ionic Rollabout Dryer from Sally Beauty Supply for $99. Anyone own one? How is it for the price? Cause I just can't afford a Pibbs.

 

[janaq2003]

I have this one- very pleased!

 

[janda]

Yes I just recently bought one and so far I think it was a great choice.

 

[simplycee]

Does anyone know if you can use a Sally's coupon with this?

 

[iri9109]

i have it...its nice...i never tried a pibbs before, but this definitely gets the job done.

 

[Napp]

can you fit grey rollers under there?

 

[ultrasuede]

Yes, you can fit larger rollers under this dryer, including the gray ones.

I am so glad OP started this thread. I've been looking into purchasing one from Sally's and I have a coupon that I hope I can use on it. I really want a Pibbs but that is just not in the budget this month. I looked into several other dryers but none were rated as high as the Babyliss.

ETA: You can't use the coupon with the dryer. I put everything in my shopping cart, logged in and added the coupon code and it wasn't valid with the dryer.

 

[Napp]

i checked the price.with 20% off and shipping i might as well get a salonsrus for just a few dollars more.

eta i see that salonsrus doesnt sell the stand up dryer any more so i guess this is the nest best thing. there are a few cheaper ones on ebay.

I was thinking that I would not advise someone to purchase a hair dryer on eBay...then I remembered that I actually sold my Pibbs via that site a few months back.

don't do it, I have had two of them. They work well but the base of the hood, where it attached to the pole cracked on both of mine.

mg1979 Thank you so much, that code worked like a charm.

Really? How long before it cracked?

 

[MilkChocolateOne]

Really? How long before it cracked?

about a year, i used it once a week for roller sets and I stored it with the hood detached from the pole

 

[new2haircare]

I have one, works well.I have had it for over 3 months now and I have had no problems.

Ahhh man, I was really looking into this dryer until I heard that.

P.S How are you guys storing the dryer?

 

[mg1979]

Does anyone know if there's another stand up dryer in the same price range? Pibbs is way over my budget.

I don't have a rollabout dryer but I really want one. SO said and I quote "Why you want that? Regular people don't have those in their house". erplexedI can't stand him. I want to know how you store the dryer. My 1 bd apt is very small and I don't have closest or corner space.

 

[Lanea87]

On sale at Sallys for $79

 

[fivetimestwo]

I got one last Christmas and have been using it regularly ever since. I have no complaints-I'm pleased with it. I don't store mine, I have a corner that I leave it in and I sit there with it.

 

[Lucie]

I can't believe Salons R' Us doesn't sell stand up dryers anymore!

 

[crystal6002]

Same here - I've had mine for about a year. I just put it in the corner after I'm finished. No problems at all! I love it!

 

[ChristmasCarol]

I've had mine for about a year - it works well. I thought I wanted a Pibbs, but this dryer is pretty good, so I can't justify the extra cost.

I store it in a spare bedroom, but it can easily fit into a large closet.

 

[ManeStreet]

So are you all using it for rollersets? How do you rate it for doing rollersets? Is the drying time good? Does it dry your hair evenly? Can your head fit under it comfortably with large rollers? Thanks.

 

[Leesh]

I wouldn't mind trying this one, but my head is size Extra Large and I don't think that I could fit my dome anddd the Grey Rollers underneath, without having to wait till the top is dry, then remove those so I can fit the rest up under. (Don't Laugh)

Anyone else in my Big-Headed Predicament who owns one? I would like to know how it works for you!

 

[Magnolia85]

this dryer is still on sale for $79. How is everyone still doing with it?

 

[mg1979]

Magnolia85: Sorry for the delay in responding. I only use mine to deep condition. I use it 1-4 times a month. I've never owned a dryer before other than a hand held so I don't have anything to compare it to, but it does work for me. The high setting gets way hot, so I use it on medium. I only put iron low when I feel like I'm getting hot under medium. If I had known what a steamer was when I bought this, I probably would've purchased one of those instead just because I only use it to dc and I have low porosity.

 

[Evolving78]

i'm gonna get one soon!
