Features
This function releases negative ions during use. These ions help break down water molecules on hair, reducing drying time and sealing the hair cuticle. This results in smoother, shinier hair with less frizz and static, making hair more manageable and healthier-looking.
This dryer actively emits negative ions through its built-in ion generator, which is crucial for breaking down water molecules quickly, leading to faster drying. This technology also helps to seal the hair cuticle, effectively minimizing frizz and static while significantly boosting the hair's natural shine and smoothness for a polished look.
A dedicated button that immediately provides a burst of cool air. It's typically used at the end of the drying process, after styling with heat, to set the hairstyle in place. This helps to lock in your desired style, add shine, and close the hair cuticles, ensuring your hairstyle lasts longer and appears polished.
A dedicated cool shot button provides an immediate burst of cold air, which is indispensable for setting your finished hairstyle. This feature helps to lock in your style, add lasting shine, and close the hair cuticles, ensuring your blowout holds its shape and looks polished throughout the day, contributing to longer-lasting results.
The handle of the hair dryer can be folded into a compact shape. This is useful for saving space when storing the hair dryer at home, in a small bathroom, or when packing it for travel in luggage. It makes the hair dryer highly portable and easy to store, fitting into smaller spaces and simplifying packing for trips, making it a convenient choice for frequent travelers or those with limited storage.
This model does not feature a folding handle. While this means it requires slightly more storage space compared to foldable designs, the fixed handle contributes to a robust and stable build. Its non-folding design ensures consistent ergonomic comfort during use, though it may be less convenient for very compact travel packing.
Allows the user to select from several distinct heat levels, rather than just basic hot/cold. This function is used to tailor the heat intensity to different hair types or styling needs, such as lower heat for fine or damaged hair, or higher heat for thick hair. It provides versatile styling options and helps prevent heat damage by allowing precise control over the drying temperature, ensuring optimal care for your hair.
With 3 distinct heat settings, this dryer offers precise control, allowing users to select the ideal heat level for their specific hair type and styling needs. This versatility helps prevent heat damage by enabling lower heat for delicate or damaged hair, and higher heat for quicker drying of thicker strands, ensuring optimal care for every drying session.
Comes with a specialized attachment with finger-like prongs that disperses the airflow evenly. This attachment is primarily used for drying curly or wavy hair, to enhance natural curls and add volume without causing frizz. It helps to maintain the natural curl pattern and volume of your hair, preventing frizz and promoting a softer, more defined look, especially for textured hair types.
A high-quality diffuser attachment is included, designed specifically to enhance natural curls and waves. It disperses air gently and evenly, preventing frizz and maintaining the hair's natural texture and volume. This makes it an essential tool for those with curly or textured hair, promoting softer, more defined curls without disturbing their pattern.
Enables the user to control the speed of the airflow, offering different settings from gentle to powerful. This is useful for various drying stages: a lower speed for delicate or precision styling, and a higher speed for quickly drying larger sections of hair. It provides greater control over the drying process, allowing for more precise styling and gentler drying for sensitive hair, or quicker drying when time is short, catering to diverse hair needs and preferences.
The dryer features 2 adjustable airflow speeds, ranging from a gentle breeze for delicate drying or precision styling to a powerful gust for rapid drying of thicker hair sections. This fine-tuned control ensures adaptability for various hair care routines and styling preferences, allowing for greater control over the drying process and catering to diverse hair needs.
SHOPSTAFF Rating Score
The REMINGTON Shine Therapy Hair Dryer AC2016 positions itself as a highly accessible option in the hair dryer market, offering notable features for its price point. While its 1875W AC motor provides efficient drying, it does not match the ultra-fast performance of higher-end models equipped with advanced brushless motors. Its primary strength lies in its shine-enhancing technology, combining an ion generator with Argan oil and Keratin-infused elements, which effectively reduce frizz and boost hair radiance. The main performance limitation is its weight, which at over 1kg, can be fatiguing for prolonged use, especially for those with very long or thick hair. However, given Remington's established reputation and positive customer feedback regarding durability, a predicted usage period of several years is reasonable for typical home use. It performs well in its main use case of daily drying and styling, particularly for users prioritizing frizz control and shine on a budget.
