Design

The Elchim 3900 Healthy Ionic hair dryer uses innovative technology that combines heat control and air flow velocity to produce a product that makes hair supple, softer and shinier.

The sleek Italian design not only looks incredibly chic but performs superbly too. Standing out when it comes to power, noise, weight, and power.

Even though this hair dryer is all about the technology, this is still gentle on the hair with an ionic-ceramic design to ensure the hair is hydrated and looks shiny too.

The ionic ceramic system helps moisturise and enlighten the air that creates frizzy and dry hair and it also helps eliminate electrostatic charges that can damage different hair types.

This powerful hair dryer can straighten even the frizziest of hair in a short amount of time.

The stylish, contemporary design of the Elchim is pleasing to the eye, simple to navigate and comfortable to hold.

Ionic technology of the Elchim 3900 Healthy Ionic hair dryer

Traditional blow dryers produce positive ions which can cause static and frizz. Ionic hair dryers release negative ions which break down the positive water droplets, drying your hair faster and reducing heat damage.

If you want the ultimate ionic dryer, buy one with a ceramic coating. Why? Because it helps heat the air more evenly. Elchim hair dryers have been known to deliver the results that women are looking for. The diversity of the product lines that Elchim provides has endeared the company to its customers.

Heat and power settings

The Elchim 3900 features 2200-2400 watts with two speed and two heat settings – including a cold shot button and super-hot setting – which ensured a rapid drying time whilst closing hair cuticles, producing a beautifully smooth, glossy finish.

The position of the heat and airflow switches on the handle is perfect. You can make adjustments on the fly without having to change your grip. Also, the cool-shot button is in the exact spot where your thumb naturally rests while holding the dryer so you don't have to grope around to find it. Buttons and switches are easy to use but provide enough resistance so you don't accidentally change settings.

Airflow

The airflow is very powerful and really does cut down on dry time considerably. The airflow of this dryer goes only where you want it and doesn’t blow my hair all over the place, resulting in hair that’s smooth and shiny all the way down to the ends.

Why you need to consider this dryer

Since 1945 Elchim has created professional hair styling tools, with lightness, ergonomics, technology and design at the core. The Elchim 3900 Healthy Ionic hair dryer is no different, and something you’ll be glad you invested in from the moment you start using it.

This hairdryer is both lightweight and compact – great for travelling – and the built-in silencer highly effective. In addition, the salon-length cord was really practical, eminently suitable for professionals, whilst its high pressure and superior airflow make it ideal for all hair types.
