Blown away

Straight into it - Packaging is on point. You are greeted with the beautiful new baby of the family. A stunning hairdryer – in all its black and rose gold glory, 3 attachments and underneath are some simple instructions and a storage bag.

Long cord - 3 metres (yep I checked) with hanging loop located at the top of the cord.

Beautifully balanced – not top heavy. The motor is in the long handle and the heating elements are in the short head which makes the weight distribution a comfortable set up. Very light and manoeuvrable which is easier on the wrist and shoulder. I found it easier to direct the head and heat where I wanted it to go so less chance of hitting or scolding myself. Control is from the wrist and your index finger can sit on the cool shot trigger.

This trigger is amazing for instantly cutting heat and to continue blowing without touching either of the heat or speed setting switches. A handy setting for kids, not over drying your hair, style setting and definitely helps with smoothing. Has a beautiful blue light in the hollow head that glows when using this trigger The settings – there are lots. With 3 heat and 2 speed settings as well as the cool shot trigger you have plenty of options.

The head sucks air in via the air inlet grill located in the barrel of the head and then heats it, blowing it out the other end. No ugly fan is visible – I didn’t worry about the hairdryer sucking in and singeing my hair.

My old (piece of junk) hair dryer takes over 10 minutes to dry my hair. With the Air 3D 4 minutes!! As well as being significantly quicker it’s more powerful, quieter, better balanced, prettier and has some amazing technology to go with it. It’s so quick any noise associated with it is short lived.

Using no attachments it smoothed and straightened my hair with drying and brushing alone. With the concentrators it was even straighter or I could create some really nice natural looking waves by blowing my hair out over my brush barrel. The diffuser leaves you with a nice natural look that’s still smooth and could be left alone or easily styled. These attachments attach easily - they just push on and off and can be rotated. They are great my hair has never been so sleek after a blow dry alone. My old dryer would leave me with a lot of puff, frizz and static. If I wanted polka straight hair I would follow up with my straighteners – but the Air 3D creates a nice base for that as the hair is more manageable.

I use to work in science and know a lot about ions (sadly) so I did a little research into the science involved. Simply put.. It’s said the Air 3D has an ionic generator. Charged ions (negative ions in this case I believe) are generated using a voltage and are said to hit the water molecules on the wet hair making them smaller and easier to evaporate off. No idea if at a molecular level this is actually what is happening (hard for us to tell at home) but time wise – I would believe it.

Thanks BR xx

Tips: NOTE: Sorry for the novel above. NOTE: Thank you BR for the amazing opportunity to try out this magnificent marvel we are so very grateful. NOTE: I have medium length, fine and slightly wavy hair.. so hair results will vary.. this is just based on my experience. NOTE: Yes I would repurchase..Wait for a sale.

What's not to love....

I bought this hairdryer after some fantastic reviews.

This hair dryer is all things pretty and elegant, from the pretty rose gold and white packaging to the rose gold hair dryer itself. It is light weight, and ergonomically not as tiresome to hold - it seems better balanced than the traditional hair dryers. All buttons within easy reach while using.

It has three attachments, 2 nozzle attachments for blow drying hair or styling into waves, and the diffuser attachment for gently drying curls. Attachments slide on and actually stay in place as they have rubber grips to keep them in place firmly. You can turn them all to any angle needed, easily. No more diffuser detachment accidents for me - this would be the first hair dryer I've owned where the diffuser hasn't fallen off while drying my hair! Without attachments you get a very gentle blow dry for simply drying off hair without too much of a hurricane thing happening!

The drying time is definitely faster despite it being a gentler blower. I gave up using the straighteners in favour of this hair dryer, and my hair looks so much healthier, and more bounce. There's 3 heat settings - the 3rd heat setting is really hot - so I've only needed to use level 2 with my fine hair. The cool blast is easy to activate while holding the dryer too for styling

The condition of my hair has improved - partially because I haven't used straighteners, but also because the AIR3D is much gentler than other hair dryers and styling tools so I've been able to achieve a hairstyle without all the heat damage and without spending too much time achieving it..

The hair dryer also comes with a bag to neatly store everything together without having to fish around for attachments or have cords lying around which is great as I keep mine in the bathroom cupboard.

I'm really impressed with the hair dryer. It's used daily, and I really like that it's gentle on my hair, yet I easily achieve the look of salon styled hair at home. The price tag is up there for hair dryers, but on sale at Farmers, you can often nab it for half price. You won't be disappointed with this purchase!

Love it

I sold my house and got one of these for myself as a house warming present. The reviews are amazing so I had high expectations but in all honestly it was always going to be better than my old hairdryer. But I didn’t know it was going to be that good though.

It’s so sleek and pretty. With a great length cord. Which is handy as my plug is in an awkward spot.

It’s a nice weight and well balanced for use. I have osteoporosis in my shoulder and this has been comfortable to use and light enough to hold above my head.

Lots of settings which is handy and all under your finger tip.. it’s easy to shoot a cool blast for a break.

I have long dry hair that needs to retain as much moisture as possible so if I dry my hair I like it to be gentle. It sounds like this has the technology to gently dry my hair. And it feels like it’s gentle also. It leaves my hair in better condition than if I let it dry naturally. If I let it dry naturally I have a wave, frizz, flyaways you name it. Since using this with my ceramic brush my hair is so sleek, smooth and much straighter - I can’t beleive it! It’s almost like I’ve run a straightener through it as my hair is that much more under control. It’s so soft and smooth too even without hair treatment oils. And after a sleep it’s brush and walk away again no styling so has saved a lot of time.

It’s quick.. my hair is down my back and it’s actually worth using this hairdryer. I felt my old dryer just blew and blew and I didn’t really end up anywhere. This is at least 3x faster I think than my current blower.

Lots of attachments that I haven’t really used I have mainly been using my ceramic brush and just the dryer to be honest and the result from that alone has been magical.

It’s been a real time saver using the dryer and being left with tidy enough hair that I don’t have to straighten or style really. I love it.

i have 0 self control

This hair dryer was on special, and BR were handing out points if you showed them the receipt of purchase, so me being the good minion I am, dutifully purchased this hair dryer. To be fair, my old one was on the way out, and I have #noragerts so it's all hunky dory.

I love the rose gold. It matches my Remington straightener so nicely, it's like they were made to be together. It comes with 3 attachments, one of which is a diffuser. I have no idea how to use it, and I personally would've been happier without it. The other 2 attachments are for those profesh people that can straighten their hair with a hair dryer. Can't relate.

This has so many settings. Cold air, warm air, hot air, and then on top of that, 2 different speeds. Weirdly enough, the symbols don't match what's happening (in my opinion). The fan means the dryer is turned off. The 3 squiggly lines means cold air, which to mean should mean hot not cold! and 0 means full blast. It's also all numbered with an LED that shows up when the hair dryer is on, but it's still confusing. Maybe mine is just labelled weird, but whatever. It works and I like it.

It dries hair SO FAST. Like, less than 5 minutes for damp. Completely wet is about 10, give or take on my fine thick hair. I find that the two narrow attachments are perfect at directing heat where I want it, but the open nozzle is probably best for an all over dry. The attachments do get very hot though, so please mind your fingers. I also was under the impression (I don't know why) that this would be quiet... It's not like a 747 taking off but it's definitely not quiet. Maybe less noisy than my old one.

When using this I feel like the condition of my hair doesn't go dry and frizzy like it usually would, but rather stays nice and soft, and it's definitely not as out of control and I have less fly aways. It's a really gorgeous hair dryer, and other than being hella expensive I'm glad I was enabled!

Remington AIR3D Hairdryer

I was super lucky to score this in the last beauty vault. I wanted to buy one but couldn't justify the cost. Having used it I can say its definitely worth every cent! The packaging is just exquisite, the box is really solid and perfect to keep as a storage box. It comes with 3 attachments and a travel pouch. My old hairdryer was louder than a 747 landing so I was so pleased at how quiet this is as it no longer wakes the neighborhood. At first use I was thinking gosh this doesn't blow out much air or heat it will take ages to dry my unruly mop. But quite the opposite- it's so quick to dry my thick hair, I was amazed at the speed. It is also very smoothing and leaves my hair so shiny and sleek I hardly need to use straighteners most days. The weight and size is also perfect if you want to take it traveling but still big enough to pack a punch and feel sturdy in your hand. I am absolutely sold on this and highly recommend anyone thinking about it to just do it!

Tips: Wait till farmers has a half price sale as it is expensive but worth every penny

Beyond Excellent

I recently purchased this dryer and had the opportunity to try out all the attachments. I wear my hair both curly and straight. The diffuser on this dryer is probably the best one I have ever used. Without mentioning other brand names, I must admit I own all the diffuser attachments available, from the collapsible one, the hand shaped one, the enormous one, which was my favorite, and a dome shaped one. This one dried my hair faster than any of the others and the curls came out the absolute best. This will be my permanent diffuser moving forward, no need for the others. The concentrator attachmentments worked equally as well for straightening my long hair and also the smaller attachment I used for when I wore my hair curly, but wanted to dry the small section of bang fringe straight. It didn’t disturb the curly area. The dryer is so lightweight and easy to use. The attachments go on so very easy and extremely secure. The highest heat setting is amazingly efficient for drying. For both curly and straight my hair came out so soft and shiny. It really exceeded my expectations. The travel bag fits all the items nicely, however, for this price point, I was hoping it came with a hard travel case. When I first had my eye on this, it did come in a zip around case, but apparently it’s not offered anymore, even to purchase. I did find that there was a discrepancy on the wattage and brought it to the attention of the company. The site states it as a 1760 watt, but it’s actually only 1600. They said it’s an error they will correct. I’d say if you are looking for a blow dryer a step above the rest, you will be very happy with this one. I know this dryer is probably a direct competitor of the much higher end dryer out on the market right now, but I think this one has it beat.

Unleash your hairs true potential.

I thought my last hair dryer was good this is even better! I was super lucky to have won this from beauty review.

The design is exquisite. A really beautiful metallic soft pink with a triangle shaped hole or "core" at the back which give it the 3D feel hence the name Air3D. Inside the words Remington lights up in blue. I was surprised how lightweight and easy to hold it is. Never have I owed something so fancy!

It comes with three attachments, 2 nozzles and a diffuser attachment for curly hair. The dryer works equally well with or without any attachments. I personallt have found it dries my hair quicker without but hair is extra smooth it you attach either of the nozzles near the end. There are two fan speeds and three heat settings with a cool blast button. Lots of choices for perfecting your desired look.

I have long hair and it takes me around 5-10minutes to completely dry my hair, depending on how long it's been up in a towel for. It's impressive how quickly it dries and the way it does it without increasing frizz or causing hair to became brittle and dry. I found this dryer very gentle on my hair but gives salon quality results at home. Smooth, soft beautiful dry hair! I can't recommend this hair dryer enough.

Tips: Look out for it half price at Farmers.

wonderful dryer

This did everything it said on the box. The packaging was beautiful (maybe a little over the top!). I had my eye on a Dyson, but could not justify the price tags. When my hairdryer blew up, I did some research and decided the purchase the air 3D. I got it half price at farmers, and while it was more than I’ve spent on a dryer in the past, it seems to be worth the money. It has helped tame frizz, dries my hair in no time and it’s so lightweight. It makes me look forward to drying my hair!

Tips: Try the different head attachments until you find what works for you. I now use less frizz taming product as it seems to help tame my hair. Look for it 50% off at Farmers!

great dryer

I actually won this from Beauty Review in early 2019, and having just received a new dryer that Christmas I felt a wee bit bad that I have not used it since I received this baby.

First off, the packaging is beautiful. You really feel like you are opening a premium product. The rose gold colour really cements this as I have only ever owned black dryers, and it's just really pretty and lightweight. My wrist doesn't get sore holding this.

It has a long cord as well, which is super great as I dry my hair in the lounge and it is a couple of metres from the plug to the mirror. It has three heat settings, two fan speeds and a cool shot button and comes with a diffuser and two concentrators.

It's noticeably quieter than my other dryers, and dries my fine, long, medium thick hair so much faster. I usually dry without any attachments as it is quicker, then add one of the concentrators to smooth my hair out and help to eliminate those pesky flyaways.

Finally, it comes in its own travel bag for easy storage if you have nowhere to hang it.

To sum up, I really love owning pretty things that work properly and this dryer is both.

Tips: wait for a sale, as this is a premium product.

Light and Quiet

I bought this on special from Noel Leeming after reading great reviews about it on this site. The hair dryer lives up to my expectations and is so much quieter and nicer to use than my old cheap hairdryer.

I have fine long hair which is straight naturally so I don’t blow dry my hair, I just dry it but I’m impressed with the hairdryer. It looks nice and I enjoy using it, I never liked using hair dryers before I got this.
