Why we made it.
Most hairdryers are either too heavy, too loud, or too weak. We designed the Great Hairdryer to change that — combining salon-grade power with a compact, lightweight body that fits in your gym bag or carry-on.
After years in the salon industry, we recognised the need for a hairdryer that meets professional standards while being user-friendly for everyday styling. The Great Hairdryer was developed to fill this gap – offering rapid drying, reduced frizz, and enhanced shine without compromising on comfort or design.
Made with pro stylists in mind, it gives you fast, frizz-free results at home or on the move — without the strain, bulk or noise of a traditional dryer.

Silence is Golden
I bought this hairdryer for my wife for our wedding anniversary and I love it. "Why?" you may ask as I'm a 100% bald head shaver. And the answer is because it is so, so much quieter than any that have gone before it. And so I love it!

Small and mighty
Love the fact that this is so light and such a lovely design. It will be great for travelling with (and powerful enough to use as an everyday at-home dryer too). It comes with replaceable new filters and instructions of how to keep it in good condition - so am hopefully it will last a very long time.
