Question: What is the best way to position a bonnet hair dryer and which bonnet hair dryer do you recommend?

Answer: Allow me to go into a little detail about what a bonnet hair dryer is for my reader’s sake. Bonnet hair dryers are compact dryers that you sit under like the ones you see in hair salons. You know the type; you stick your whole head under when drying a head full of rollers, or when your stylist is trying to progress your bleaching process. This is not a self standing dryer however, what I mean by self standing is it sets on the floor with its own chair or base; the bonnet sets on a table or a desk and you have to add a chair. That is where your innovation has to kick in and where your furniture accessibility weighs in: if your chair is too high or the back of the chair is not low enough, you’ll have some problems.

Proper Postition

This hair dryer can be a challenge to position if you don’t have the furniture with the necessary height. Being the youngest of seven girls, I have heard of all the tricks known to women, and I have seen every possible attempt concerning the bonnet hair dryer (read the “about us” section of this site: it’s not important just relevant). Regardless, this is a recommended rollers dryer (as we used to call it) and it is definitely worth the trouble.

Tips For Using Bonnet Hair Dryers

Positioning the bonnet hair dryer requires a short back chair or an adjustable stool with no back. An adjustable no back means that there is no back to lean on and the intended height is adjustable through a hydraulics system. This may sound confusing but it really isn’t. If you are a “rollers in your hair” type person, this bonnet hair dryer is definitely a must have. If you are in the market for one, Hot Tools manufacturers make the most popular dryers.There are two bonnet hair dryers that I would recommend; the Ion 1,875 watt 8 ½ pound models priced at $49.50 or (my personal choice) the more popular 1200 watt salon hair dryer that goes for $ 39.00. Either way adjustable positioning is required.

How to position your bonnet hair dryer:

You will need,

  • one low back or backless chair or stool
  • a dinner or office heighttable
  • a 110 or 220 capacity extension cord
  • thirty five to sixty minutes of drying time depending on the thickness and density of your hair.
