Hair care insights: Top hair dryer results and maintenance advice

A recent consumer test by IMTEST evaluated various hair dryers across price ranges from 35 to 500 euros. The Shark SpeedStyle Pro Flex was named the overall winner due to its balanced performance, airflow, and temperature control. The Xiaomi Mi Ionic Hair Dryer H300 was identified as the best value for money.

Regarding hair maintenance, experts suggest that the timing of haircuts should depend on hair condition rather than a fixed schedule. While short styles like pixie cuts may require trims every four to eight weeks to maintain shape, long, healthy hair may only need maintenance every four to six months. Experts note that cutting hair does not affect growth speed, as growth occurs at the scalp.
