The Parlux 3500 Super Compact is one of the newest professional hairdryers to hit the shelves. All the way from Italy where fashion and style is a must, the Parlux 3500 is the “Mercedes Benz of hairdryers” and puts the conventional hairdryer to shame.
I know hairdryers. I was in my teenage years when the only way to straighten hair was a blow dry with the trusty old hairdryer. I spent hours and hours painstakingly blow drying my friend’s thick, unruly hair for weekend events in an attempt to achieve something similar to sleek and smooth locks. More often than not, we would end up with burnt and dry feeling hair, a room full of smoke and a sore arm. Not quite the salon look we were after.
Fortunately the Parlux 3500’s ceramic and ionic technology means that those days are long gone. The Parlux is so incredibly powerful that it now takes about ten minutes to dry my thick, wavy hair. It eliminates all frizz and leaves my hair silky smooth and shiny. This is because of the ionic technology that means negative ions are released that act upon interaction with water droplets on the hair. These ions work to smooth down the hair cuticle and trap in moisture. Basically, the drying time is reduced, along with damage and hair looks and feels better!
The difference between traditional hairdryers and the Parlux 3500 are obvious after a few uses. I wash my hair every second night and will not leave the house without perfectly straightened hair. It usually takes a good half hour to dry and straighten my hair, a chore which has become dull very fast. My morning hair routine is now so much shorter. With the option of simultaneous high heat and super force I spend less time drying. Because the Parlux 3500 is so efficient, straightening time is also reduced. My hair feels healthier and more manageable and I get a longer sleep in!
The latest Parlux comes with the added bonus of being super compact, without the loss of power or heat. The size is great for travel and storage and the light weight makes hair styling a breeze. It has an easy to hold handle with two speed and heat settings and the convenience of an extra long power cord. There is a vast range of bright colours to choose from. I especially love the lime green! There are two nozzle adjustments for controlled airflow and it comes with a one year manufacturer’s warranty.
My search for the perfect hairdryer stops at the Parlux 3500. It may be slightly more expensive, but in the long run it is a luxurious, yet necessary investment for every female. My Mum has her original Parlux for over six years and wouldn’t trust anything else. The Parlux is the professional brand of choice of the majority of hair salons, why would you treat yourself to anything less?

My philosophy on life:
Every girl should have a perfect hair day every day, wear stunning shoes and drink expensive wine with friends. And laugh. A lot.
A quality hairdryer that doesn’t suck my hair into it and filling the bathroom with that revolting burnt hair smell!
New straightener and hair dryer, would be nice.
One of my own, so my sister wont think twice.
She takes my things, and doesnt ask
know everything is broken, my hair is a farce!!!!!!!!!!!
I really want a crimper, have an 80’s party coming up and this would be ideal for my hairstyle of the night!
A straightner my hair gets very boofy looking in the cooler months
A magic wand would be great! But I’m yet to find one that will perform the miracle treatment my hair requires to tame it, so I’d have to say a decent hair dryer would be my second choice… My current supermarket brand one leaves my hair so toasty, dry and crisp that it may spontaneously combust at any moment!
I really need a hair dryer right now. I have long and thick hair and my pregnency is making them even more fuller. Also my elder daughter has thick hair too and with the weather getting cold, less sunlight and cool wind blowing, it’s very hard to dry such hair
I would love a nourishing hair treatment and a new hair dryer 🙂
I go swimming everyday and need a dryer to dry my hair before venturing out in the Cold
Actually it’s a hair dye my hair badly needs, I’m starting to look like i’ve been painting the bathroom ceiling white.
I am 52 and have had a chronic illness requiring steroids and regular chemo since my twenties. My hair is a bit on the thin side and I am less than a bit on the thin side but a girl still has her vanities. I would be so happy to win a voucher for a hair treatment which could only improve the condition of my hair and a dryer to get it looking its best.
Dry Shampoo because i hate having to wash my hair all the time!!
A product for fly-a-way hair. It’s not as smooth and sleek as I’d like it to be 🙁
A new Parlux!! my old one I bought from RY has just passed away & my bleached hair deserves this amazing dryer!
I really need a parlux hair dryer ive never owned one but heard good reviews on this brand,
My old hairdryer just died! With the cooler weather here I would love a new hairdryer. The Parlux looks awesome 🙂
Anti-frizz or somehing to keep my hair smooth, especially now that it’s winter, I look like I’ve been electrified!
A serious volumiser – I have long and lanky, I WANT SWANKY!
A hair straightener as I have messy curly hair which needs taming
A new hairstraightener, my current one is so useless am tempted to use the regular clothes iron!
My daughter thought it extremely funny
Throwing my straightener down the dunny!
So thanks to my mischievous daughter
I need one free from toilet-water!
I’d love some Moroccan Oil to treat my hair from colours, sun, old age and stress.
I am in serious need of a hairdryer as now the cold weather is set in and I hate wet hair
Sounds the hair dryer for me m – I have a lot of problem with static, flying hair after anything but natural drying. Could this be a solution to my longstanding problem? Ready to try!!!
A straightener! mine has just died and my hair looks fried. Ive always dreamt of owning a GHD so my long red locks can turn heads and shock!
I am in desperate need of a new hair dryer! Mine over heats and dies when I turn it off leaving me waiting roughly 10-15 minutes before I can use it again… annoying when I’m in a rush!
A new straightener is what I need, Im dreaming of Cloud Nine,
A $50 voucher for ry would help it to become mine!
I’m in desperate need of some hair shine spray,
Lately I’ve been all work, and no play,
My hair has been suffering, dull and drab,
It needs ry.com.au to help make it fab!
Anything to tame the frizz. I am sick of wearing a hat every time I step out the house.
A Parlux hairdryer would be perfect for me, as it has everything that I could want from a hairdryer. It’s compact to take anywhere.
Hair dryer as coming into winter my hair goes to my waist and takes a while to dry on it’s own.
When we go away im not able to pack much. I recently got a fringe cut ( possibly a lapse in judgement) and venture out with a massive cowlick without a good blow dry! The Parlux 3500 Super Compact will help me sneak it into the suitcase without hubby being any wiser!
A curling wand, that actually works to give my hair some body.
My current one leaves my hair, looking really shoddy.
Something to hide the grey.
My hairdryer broke yesterday and I have borrowed an old one and it just doesn’t cut it. It is not hot or powerful enough for my long hair. Help me!
I need a curling iron, and a hair dryer, because I want to get my fringe to flick out at the sides, then I’ll hairspray it
Would like a hairdryer don’t currently have one.
