The Philips SalonShine Ion hairdryer has been specially
designed to meet your personal needs, allowing you to
dry your hair at a constant caring temperature, for healthy,
shiny, frizz-free hair. The ioniser inside emits negatively
charged ions that surround your hair. Negative ions
reduce the build-up of static electricity and help to keep
your hair in good condition, making it shiny, smooth and
frizz-free.
