Overview

Not a bulky salon dryer, the CHI Lava folds down into a compact shape and comes with a storage case. A brushless motor drives the airflow, and an ion generator with lava and ceramic materials aims to cut frizz and add shine.

Power in a foldable body is the case for it, making it easy to pack while still drying quickly. The listing never mentions nozzles or a diffuser, so styling attachments may be missing.

Who it's for

Travel bags and tight bathroom storage suit a foldable dryer with a case. People with curls who diffuse should confirm attachments first.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • High wattage brushless motor

  • Storage case included
  • Ions reduce frizz
Cons
  • No attachments listed
  • Weight and cord length not given
  • Voltage not stated

Performance notes

Drying speed comes from motor power and airflow, and a brushless motor delivers that more quietly. Ions reduce static so the hair cuticle lies flatter, which is where the extra shine comes from.
