I owned a featherweight 2 for many years and loved it, bought it because it was a tourmaline hair dryer and loved the t3 brand. Now that it seems to be going out the obvious choice was to get this hair dryer. The first time I used it I could tell it was drying out my hair. I gave it a week of use, then used my old hair dryer the difference was huge. Packed this one up and sent it back. Called and asked if it was still a tourmaline hair dryer and was told no they had changed the technology… looks like they changed it for the worst.
I used T3 3 before and then tried Dyson and came back to T3 since it keeps my hair healthier and smoother. I love it! Also I'm glad the new concentrator are easy to put on and take off. It used to be the only thing I didn't like about my previous T3
I loved my ol Featherweight 3i hairdryer so much so when it broke I was devastated. (I didn't send back warranty card) so I needed a new one. I had gotten the dry bar for my birthday so I dug it out and started using it. I didn't like it. It's more for blowouts and my hair is curly and I don't have time to blow it out. I saved my money and bought the air luxe. I was so excited to use it... until I did. The design of this hair dryer is ridiculous. The cool button is right where you grip the dryer so it's constantly being turned on when I don't want it on. The diffuser doesn't come with it so I had cto but it separate. Not sure if at one time you could buy one that came with the diffuser but my old 3i did. I don't see the Ben of using it either. The 3i made my hair look shiny and full. This one doesn't add anything to my hair. It's basically a Conair disguised as a luxury hairdryer. I've gone back to the drybar for now but may try to find the older T3 at a discount store because I miss it so much
The Featherweight was the best. This one has buttons, no toggles and they are right where they shouldn’t be. I keep turning the power down, turning the heat down or turning on the cool blast. Very poorly designed. I wouldn’t recommend buying this one.
