Are hair diffusers good for your hair?
Diffusing Creates Big, Curly Hair “The benefits of using a diffuser are faster drying time, and bouncier, fuller, voluminous curls,” Emilio says. “Diffusers diffuse the air, aka, they disperse it, which means it prevents the dryer from roughening up the cuticle of the hair. It protects curls from frizz.”
What does a diffuser do for hair?
A diffuser works by spreading the airstream over a wider area in a more controlled way. Diffusers are great for those with curly to wavy hair types as it can help to keep the natural curl pattern. Without a diffuser, you can easily blow curls out of shape and into a frizz.

How long should I diffuse my hair?

Is it bad to diffuse your hair?

Should I diffuse my hair with hot or cold air?
DON’T- Just use HOT air when diffusing your soaking wet hair. Although, using a high temperature when you start to diffuse will seal the hair cuticle, which helps to reinforce the ringlet shape to stay in place. If you start diffusing dripping wet hair with cold air first, you won’t get very far.
Does diffusing damage hair?
Diffusing reduces heat damage but can’t nullify it completely as it’s connected to a hair dryer. Even if you use a diffuser, if the hairdryer is on high heat, it will most definitely cause heat damage. Diffusing daily can be very damaging. You should only do it a few times a week.
