A simple blow-dry, turned-under ends and waves ask different things of a tool. Choose for the style you actually wear.

**Which tool suits your styling routine?** If you mainly dry your hair, start with a dryer supplied with a concentrator and diffuser. A multi-styler offers more ways to shape ends or create waves. A straightener smooths hair that is already dry. Choose around the task you do regularly and the attachments you would actually use.

## Choose the hairstyle before the feature list

## Three different jobs

| | FTV0144 | FTV0143 | FTV0146 |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Main task | Drying with your own brush or a diffuser | Drying and styling with interchangeable heads | Smoothing dry hair |
| Useful detail | 2 speeds, 3 heat settings and cool air | 5 attachments, 3 heat and 3 airflow settings | Digitally adjustable temperature |
| Allow for | Brush styling keeps both hands busy | Attachments and sectioned hair need working space | It does not replace a dryer |

Choose the tool you will enjoy using for your usual hairstyle. Extra attachments earn their place when you use different styling techniques.

## Picture the routine at your mirror

1. Check the socket position. The cord should reach your mirror without pulling tight.
2. Separate drying from styling: how wet your hair is and the result you want determine the next step.
3. Start with a lower heat setting suited to your hair and the instructions. Maximum heat is optional.
4. Leave room for attachments and cooling. Do not put a hot tool straight into a closed drawer.

A diffuser can help with curls, while a concentrator directs air for brush styling. When creating waves, section size and technique also matter, so allow yourself time to practise. Clean a removable filter cover as instructed.

### Choose around your routine

Compare attachments and controls. If you only dry your hair, either dryer will do. If you style as well, the multi-styler’s interchangeable heads handle both in one tool.
