Overall a nice blow dryer

Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2024

Overall I like the dryer. It has a name I recognize. I'm still going to give it 5 stars because it does what it is suppose to do and it does it well. My issue is that the cost is high based on what it does. I guess I was hoping for magic and I got a typical blow dryer. It dries my hair and does what it suppose to do. I do have to say though that it seems to be a little quieter than an average blow dryer. The cord is very long - great for a shop, not so great for a small bathroom.

Broke in 2 years

Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2024

I get that two years is a while, but I expect a hairdryer that costs this much to last more than two years. It basically passed the product support window and within a week just stopped working. Tried everything, ended up having to buy a different one.

Hair dryer is most important product for your hair. I bought it 3 years ago in Japan but I didn’t take it in the U.S. so I bought same dryer when I moved to the U.S. This hair dryer blows out hot air wit moisture called nanoe for healthy hair. It helps keep hair smooth, shiny and healthy. But it’s a little big so Otis difficult to take in a trip.
If you worry about getting dry hair, you should try to it immediately!!

Works well, but heavy

Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2023

Verified Purchase

First of all, I love how the nanoe technology actually works (despite my being initial skepticism of it being just another gimmick)! This dryer definitely produces a lot less flyaway hairs compared to all the dryers I've used, including a cheaper Panasonic model. It also dries my hair super fast, and doesn't burn or dry out the ends of my bangs too badly thanks to its multiple heat settings.

The main things keeping it back from 5 stars are its design and weight. It's quite big/unwieldy and slightly heavy, so after holding it up for a couple minutes or so, my wrist does start to ache. The handle does not fold, so this is definitely not a travel dryer. Furthermore, the heat setting button and speed setting button are right next to each other, so it's easy to accidentally move the other button when you're trying to change only one setting. I much prefer the design and weight of the EH-NA97 and would have bought that in a snap even though it's an older model, but sadly, it's apparently not available in North America. I still do like this one as it works very well, but wish it were better designed so I could love it.

An amazing product...tames wild beastly hair into notice worthy hair. Actually worth the money!

Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2015

I've always been skeptical about "new, amazing, breakthrough" technology in beauty products. I certainly believe there are different levels of quality and also that one product may perform better or worse on different people. So I was hoping this dryer would make a difference, while being prepared for less than spectactular results. So drum roll please...I personally thought my hair looked silkier, shinier and it did dry noticeably faster, but the shocker was that other people really noticed the difference!
My adult daughters to whom I am often apparently invisible, both asked me individually and on seperate occassions if I had just had my hair done, and what had I done differently etc. Ironically, the evening that I had in fact come straight from the salon (and prior to using this product) warranted no notice. I've had others compliment my hair as well. I'm giving more weight to those who see me all the time and tend not to use flattery to judge that there was a very noticable difference.
The other thing worth mentioning is that in my youth my hair was one of my best assests in terms of appearance. For the past 10 years or so, its become a definite liability. I joke that it's a fire hazard and I'm not allowed near open flame as it is so dry and so covered in product that its quite flammable. I put a fair bit of effort into getting it to be healthier and less frizzy and I've actually had people ask me if I've ever tried a "really good" conditioner or anti-frizz product. After what I hope is a chilling gaze I let them know I do believe I have tried nearly all conditioners/styling products. So it is a rare thing indeed for me to rave about a hair product or in this case hair dryer and I must give it a rave review!
If you possess beautiful, soft, smooth heathly hair this may not be worth the money, but if like me you color frequently and have those weird coarse alien hairs springing up randomly then I would say go for it!

Invest In Your Hair

Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2021

Officially the best blow dryer I’ve ever owned! I have a mix of 4a/4b natural hair and I am thoroughly impressed with this styling tool. I mostly use my blow dryer for stretching my curls out a bit or diffusing after applying my LOC moisturizers.

Complaints of the dryer being too hot - TURN THE TEMPERATURE DOWN and don’t put it so close to your hair. The concern of the temperature being too high sounds like folks need to learn how to care for their hair type. I don’t know how else to say it. But if you need something powerful that will cut drying time in half, this will do the job.

Complaints of the dryer being too heavy - this is valid, this dryer is not a flimsy or light weight but now that I’ve used it on my hair, I don’t think I want to go back to the $20-$40 dryers I was using because I feel like they caused more damage than good. The weight somewhat forced me to slow down and use the lowest heat setting in half the time leaving my natural curls feeling moisturized and soft, not dry and crunchy. The weight preference will vary from person to person.

Overall, I’m impressed with this dryer. The attachments have a quality feel to them just like the dryer. With another 3-4 months of use, I’ll provide an update but right now, I totally recommend investing in good styling tools like this one.

Doesn't Dry Out My Hair

Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2023

Verified Purchase

This is my second purchase of this blow dryer. I love it! I first tried it while staying at an AirBnB in Japan and that's when I realized I had to have one of my own. It dries my thick hair quickly without drying it out. Really powerful. Has attachments that allow focused and diffuse drying. It also has a curling attachment. Would definitely recommend this blow dryer to anyone who wants efficient yet gentle styling.

Much quieter than a standard hair dryer

Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2019

Verified Purchase

Our old hair dryer was on its last leg. It made some terrible noise one day. After taking it apart, I found that 2 fan blades had indentations on the outer edge. Anyway, that old hair dryer was loud and noisy. I really wanted something quieter, especially since I use my ears for sound engineering, and I use a hairdryer almost every day.

After looking at many reviews for quiet hair dryers, the Panasonic seem to stand on top. But many of them are rated for 100v being for the Japanese market. Plugging one of those in a US outlet would mean the hair dryer is running too hot and has a potential for overheating. I was not willing to take the risk, even though other people report them running fine. My engineering background says a 100v device is going to run 20% hotter on our 120v power. It would be pulling 18 amps instead of 15 amps.

This Panasonic, the EH-NA65K, seems to be the only one with a 120v rating, actually 125v but that wouldn’t matter as it would lower the power output, 14.5 amps instead of 15 amps, which is safe.

Now for the main question: How quiet is it? I took two measurements, one being decibel level, and the other being frequency spectrum. I read the decibels from about 3 inches away with the dryer pointing away from the microphone. It read 84 decibels c-weighted, fast. But slow, fast, a-weighted or c-weighted, it all read about 82 – 84 decibels. How does that compare to my prior hair dryer? 10 decibels less. The old dryer measured 92 - 94 decibels. This 10db decrease is huge. It’s what most people call “half” the sound level. In my book, this is easily quieter than my previous hair dryer. I don’t actually hate drying my hair now because of this much quieter hair dryer.

As for the frequency spectrum? It’s also not as annoying. This shows up in my measurement at 600hz to 1khz. My prior dryer had a spike in this region, where this hair dryer is basically flat between 600hz and 6khz.

But how does it dry? I did not take any objective testing of drying time. I’m guessing it takes about the same, or slightly longer to dry my short hair. But my hair feels softer than from the old hair dryer. This could be very subjective and maybe it was me being open to suggestion. I don’t know.

Bottom line is that this hair dryer is much quieter than my old hair dryer, and that’s a good thing.

Silky hair

Does a good job drying my long, thick hair in roughly 10 minutes. It is on the heavier side so it's a bit of a tiring 10 minutes. My hair feels silky when I get done drying.
