For those with textured, wavy, or curly hair, from type 2A to 3C, achieving a presentable look each morning can feel like a monumental task. While a lucky few can air-dry their locks into perfect, frizz-free curls, the majority need a helping hand, often in the form of a trusty diffuser hairdryer.
This Black Friday, a standout deal has emerged that is a game-changer for the curly-haired community. The Bellissima Diffon Supreme diffuser hair dryer, a travel-friendly and lightweight device praised for its results, has a staggering £70 off at Boots, slashing its price from £149.99 to just £79.99.
A Beauty Writer's Verdict on the Ultimate Curly Hair Tool
Eve Rowlands, a Senior Fashion & Beauty Writer, has relied on the Bellissima Italia Diffon Supreme for over a year to manage her 2A-C curls. She describes a common love-hate relationship with curly hair, a sentiment echoed by a Bellissima study which found that 52% of curly-haired women fall out of love with their curls due to the demanding upkeep.
Her experience with various diffusers, including a decade with a BaByliss attachment and a trial of the Curlsmith DeFrizzon Dryer, positions the Bellissima Diffon Supreme as a serious contender. Touted as a 'holy grail for curls', its compact design is both sleek and practical.
Design, Performance, and the Italian Heat Test
The dryer breaks from convention with a unique, box-like handle inspired by the Art Deco era, featuring a ribbed golden coating. It is lightweight and comfortable to hold, preventing arm strain during styling sessions.
Its smaller diffuser bowl is not a drawback; instead, it concentrates airflow on specific sections to enhance curliness. Controls are conveniently located at the bottom, offering two speeds, three temperatures, and a cool shot button, though Eve notes the cool shot felt more tepid than truly cold.
At its core is the Revolutionary Supreme Curl Flow technology, developed with engineers and curl experts. It combines ceramic technology and argan oil to hydrate hair while drying, ensuring curls remain intact and frizz is minimised.
The hairdryer produces a mild, uniformly spread heat that is less damaging than the blistering temperatures of some models. Most impressively, it dries Eve's thick, curly hair in under 20 minutes, a significant improvement on the usual 35-plus minutes.
The 12 lengthy 'fingers' on the diffuser excel at boosting natural shape and definition without the need for excessive product. It proved its mettle during a trip to Italy, where it kept curls intact despite 30+ degree heat and high humidity.
Where to Find This Black Friday Haircare Steal
For anyone struggling to maintain bouncy, hydrated, and defined curls, this Black Friday deal represents a prime opportunity. The Bellissima Diffon Supreme is available for £79.99 at Boots, a £70 saving that makes this professional-grade tool much more accessible.
In related news, those with longer tresses might also consider the Curlsmith DeFrizzon Dryer and XXL diffuser, which is priced at £159.
