Difference between ionic and ceramic hair dryer

Nowadays, hair dryers are available with different levels of efficiency.

Ionic vs Ceramic Hair Dryers

Ionic hair dryers use a distinct technology when compared to other hair dryers. Generally, standard hair dryers use a common technique of simply blowing hot air which can dry the wet hairs. Whereas Ionic hair dryers are little distinct, here in these dryers an electromagnetic field is built and releases negatively charged ions. These negatively charged ions breaks the positively charged water molecules and locks the hair cuticles such that the moisture gets preserved within it. The moisture helps your hair look shiny and moist.

Looking into ceramic hair dryers, in these types of hair dryers the ceramic material also called as porcelain is used. The ceramic material can be used in different ways. In these types of hair dryers, the heating coil or any internal part of the dryer is made of ceramic.

Ceramic dryers are more advantageous, these dryers produce an even heat which does not make hair rough and damaged. Ceramic hair dryers produce infrared rays, which helps in blood circulation.
