3000 Hair Dryer - by Parlux
Who says you need to spend a fortune on a quality hairdryer? George’s favourite is this powerful model by Parlux. With it’s rubberised coating it doesn’t slip out of sweaty hands, the professional 3 metre long cord is great if you mirror isn’t next to a plug, and the 1810 watt powered motor will have your hair dry and pretty in no time.
