What it is:An innovative product that dries hair in half the time of conventional dryers and provides the ultimate in frizz-fighting, hair-protecting, and styling performance.What it does:New-school versus old-school? A large, soft, perfectly balanced cone of air versus a hurricane-like tornado of damaging air? Thanks to SoftAire(TM), the Featherweight Luxe dries large sections of hair at a time, reducing drying times by up to 70%. As a result, hair is not over-dried and is left with a professionally perfect finish that is smooth, shiny, and silky. Patented T3(R) technology infuses only the highest-quality Tourmaline gemstones that emit ionic, infrared heat to seal in moisture and reduce static electricity for frizz-free, healthy styling.This set contains:- T3(R) Featherweight Luxe Dryer with 2 speed and 3 heat settings and cool shot- Tourmaline Ceramic components- Tourmaline concentrator nozzle- SoftTouch, finger diffuser- 9-ft professional length cord- Replacement SoftAire(TM) filters- 2-year warrantyWhat else you need to know:The included SoftTouch Diffuser volumizes, defines curls, and eliminates frizz for permed, curly, or fine hair. The Tourmaline SoftAire(TM) dries large sections of hair gently and very quickly for a professionally perfect finish. The turbulent air is organized by a specially designed fan into an organized stream. The air becomes perfectly saturated with T3 Tourmaline generated ionic and infrared heat. The enriched air exits the dryer in a large, uniform, soft stream.Research results:Four out of five people experienced faster drying times and reduced frizz when they used their T3(R) dryer.

one of the best i have ever had
-08.20.12
Quick Take: time saving, heats quickly
This is definitely one of the best driers i have had, it dries my hair very quickly but does so without making me think the whole thing is just going to melt in my hand. also unlike other dries it does not make my hair super frizzy, i don't really know how it does that but whatever it is i love it! i have curly hair so the fact that it came with a diffusor made it all just so much better, unlike other diffusors i have used it doesnt burn my hair off it actually does its job.

just..... ok
-07.22.12
This hair dryer is not really worth the money... my hair is thick and wavy and I was able to get it sleek and shiny with my elchim turbo but it just died ( after 5 years) and so i decided to try this one... I tried it out for a week. it got my hair straight but i couldnt get my hair to be shiny and smooth, it just turned out dull and fluffy every time. i guess this dryer is just not powerful enough. i gave it two stars because it is very light and the multiple settings and the diffuser is nice... it also dries my hair faster... but its just not worth the amount i paid for it.

Worth every penny!
-07.12.12
Quick Take: time saving, quiet
I was really skeptical about spending this kind of money on a hair dryer. I mean, seriously, what can a hair dryer this expensive do that one from Target can't? And at this price, I thought it may be made of pure gold and diamonds. Alas, quality over quantity will always win...
I have super curly hair, and it's prone to frizzing if it's not dried correctly. It's also really hard to dry and then straighten since I usually get way too much volume. This dryer is amazing though. It dried my curls in about 10 minutes flat, and cut my straightening time in half. If I can ever get my blow out perfected, my straightener may need a new home! It definitely doesn't blow a lot of air like the normal dryers, so don't expect a hurricane, but it really does dries your hair in almost no time flat!! It's never too hot (I don't sweat while drying my hair!), and it's quieter than any dryer I've ever used. (I had a Cricket before this). Absolutely worth trying if you have temperamental hair like I do.

-05.21.12
Quick Take: multi-purpose, time saving, heats quickly
I've been battling frizzy, tangled hair for a few years now. I've used a multitude of expensive shampoo and other hair products, never guessing that a good hair dryer would fix all this.
I decided to splurge on this after thinking about it a for a few months and the first time I used it, my hair came out soft, shiny and oh-so-smooth. And I did not use any hair product to achieve it.
i don't even feel like my hair was being fried, as it feels like sometimes, at those salons with PRO hair dryers.
This hair dryer is worth the $200 and more because now I would be saving on useless hair products.
Ladies, this would transform your frizzy, dry hair into a cascade of healthy, wonderful shine like it did mine.

Not So Hot
-04.20.12
Quick Take: overpriced
Its just not hot enough to get the frizz out of thick or hard to style hair. At this price I should be able to walk out the door with polished, styles hair. Not so! The tech is great for hair, but there is not enough heat to actually use this tool to style. If you don't have hard to style hair, why would you drop this much on a blow dryer?

Quick Take: time saving, eases frizz and tangles
I contemplated the T3 for months and finally bought it. I am not disappointed. My current hairdryer blows hard, my hair is always frizzy and tangled. I have used the T3 for two weeks and my hair is soft and smooth. It does not blow fast/hard BUT I feel it dries faster than my old hairdryer. It is light enough for me to hold behind my head. I love this dryer. It was worth every penny.

Quick Take: heats quickly, multi-purpose, time saving
I really like that there isn't a hurricane of wind - just the right amount of force for me. Definitely lightweight and regularly use both attachments. I have naturally curly hair, but wear my hair straight most of the time. An appliance like this is worth the investment.

I recently purchased the T3 Featherweight Luxe and already I love it. The dryer appears to be quite sturdy but is also very lightweight. I love that it comes with a diffuser attachment as well. I have never owned a dryer that has dried my hair so quickly. It took less than ten minutes to dry my medium length hair with this dryer as opposed to the twenty minutes or more that I would spend with my old dryer. My hair dried with zero static, frizz, or flyaways and was left with a sheen that made me feel as if I had just stepped out of the salon. My hair never looks quite so good unless I actually do go to the salon. It was quieter than any other dryer that I have used but no one should expect too low of a noise level with this dryer because it is, after all, a hair dryer. The various settings are great as well. Despite the fact that this dryer worked so quickly on my hair it did not blow it all over the place like most dryers do. Once my hair was dry I was able to brush through it very easily. I definitely recommend this dryer to anyone considering purchasing it.

Not that great
-03.29.12
I have had this hair dryer for several months and I am not impressed. I have thick long hair that takes forever to dry. Although, this hair dryer does not damage my hair, it does not cut down my drying time whatsoever. If you have thinner hair then this is the hair dryer for you.

Amazing
-03.21.12
Quick Take: heats quickly, time saving
I had been eying the T3 for a while but was unsure about the price. After my drugstore-bought dryer fizzled, I finally took the plunge and bought it...and I am so happy I did. I have very long, curly hair that is prone to damage. This dryer is amazing - I can fully straighten my hair in about 15 minutes when it used to take me 45. The best part is that it gets my hair so straight that I don't have to use any type of iron on it afterwards! Definitely worth the money.

Quick Take: heats quickly, time saving, softening
I decided to treat myself to the T3 and I'm so glad. It cuts dry time and it's a nicer experience. No harsh sound or blasting hotness. The best part is, my hair has never been softer!

Quick Take: heats quickly, multi-purpose, time saving, lightweight, smoothing, anti frizz
Ok, first off this is hands down the best dryer ever! It saves time by not creating frizzy hair, thus saving you the time it takes to flat iron your hair after drying. Also the dryer is lightweight no having to switch tired arms. I love love love this dryer. A MUST!!!!

-02.04.12
Quick Take: multi-purpose, time saving
I'm not the kind of person who spends so much money on a hair dryer, but I'm happy to report it was worth it. I like to squeeze in every last minute of sleep time in the morning, and I figured anything that might help me not be so rushed in the morning was worth a try. Not only has it cut my drying time down by at least 10 mins (I have medium length hair), but it makes my hair shiny and gives me more of that just-out-of the salon feel. I love it!

Quick Take: heats quickly, multi-purpose, time saving
I had a featherweight for years, gave it to my 12yr old cousin and upgraded myself to this one. It died in my hand, for no apparent reason, after maybe 10 uses. The replacement is holding up so far. T3 is definitely cutting quality. The plastic feels cheaper and I've seen others reviewers comment about having owned T3 dryers and being disappointed with the quality of the ones sold today. The handle feels flimsy. Yeah, my hair looks great. But I think it a poor business practice to build a reputation for quality and then cheap out.

Still better than most
-01.24.12
I purchased this as a replacement for another T3 Featherweight which was no longer under warranty. This dryer does not get as hot as the previous one, so my drying time is definitely longer. I will say that it is better than most, however I don't think it is worth the hefty price tag. I feel as though the quality has decreased. I will most likely be retuning this and will be on the hunt for something better.

Quick Take: heats quickly, multi-purpose, time saving, great for curly diffused styles & straight styles
I recently broke my T3 dryer using incorrect voltage in Cuba, stupid I know :( It had a very reliable 4 year life with not a single problem! So naturally I bought a new one & I am equally as happy with it :) other dryers don't even compare to the T3. It's faster drying, less damaging & it leaves my hair so silky everyone asks what my secret is...buy this dryer you won't regret it! (Next time I travel I'm definitely taking a voltage converter!) This is the best thing I have ever gotten for my hair ever!!!

Quick Take: heats quickly, time saving
This was a wonderful purchase for me. I have thick, coarse, wavy hair and it would take me a long time to blowdry my hair. I would end up hot, sweaty, and my arm would go numb; only to end up with an afro of frizz that needed to be flat ironed. The T3 is so quiet, doesn't overheat, and leaves my hair dry in half the time it used to take me with also less frizz. I still need to flat iron it, but it all goes MUCH faster.

-12.05.11
Quick Take: heats quickly, technology does what it says, long cord!
I have never spent this kind of money on a hair dryer.. so I decided to go all out with this one and I am SO glad I did. I have noticed a tremendous difference in my hair. It has been a lot softer and shinier. BUT the first time I REALLY noticed a difference was when I had used one of those tiny clear Goodie hair ties (rubber the size of a dime) they always used to pull all of my hair out when I took them off. However after using my hair dryer for 2 weeks I decided to throw my hair in a pony for work with one, and when I pulled it out at the end of the day it slid right off my hair. I was so amazed. (I seriously have taken a scissor to those to get them out of my hair before. I didn't notice a difference in the drying time of my hair, but that may be because i am now using this hair dryer to style my hair as well, not just blow dry it.
I would encourage everyone to get a nice hair dryer.. maybe the step down from this one if you don't want to spend the money, but I was truly amazed that the technology in this dryer actually helped my hair be healthier!
