does it ever pull your hair thru the back vent by the fan? I have long hair and that is a concern, the dryer I have does that..

Yes, I have fine hair which was pulled through the back vent when I was shaping the underside of my hair with a round brush. Lesson learned - I use a clip to keep hair up top and work upward in layers now.

My hair has never been pulled thru the back vent. I am very happy with this hair dryer. Would buy it again.

I have not had that problem . That must be very painful! I have long hair down to my tail bone. I have used this drier with and without curlers on. When I use it without the curlers, I sit on a chair and set the drier to a comfortable height .It has never pulled my hair into the fan.

I have returned this unit. It quit working after 3 months of using it. I have chin length hair. It never pulled in the backend for me. My hair is too short.

Yes, but unfortunately mine no longer holds in place. I have to hold the hood with my hand or else it will fall. Its not a good product, I only used it twice and I do deep condition my hair. I refuse to buy a new dryer so I will have to deal with it but it is cheap.

My wife's hair is very, very thick and fairly short and it works fine. I am sure it would not work as well as a more powerful dryer on long hair because it does not blow the sheer volume of air, but it produces a stream of hot air, and seems to concentrate it more than the big dryer. I used it on our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel with very dense hair and lots of it and it did a good job.

hi Mark .... it fits really nice and its tight but not so tight that you will have an issue taking it off, it hasn't fallen off yet. No doubt it might fall off if you drop the blow-dryer, but as far as during the blow-dries, it hasn't fallen off yet. Most of my clientele, including me, have ethnic hair; so the concentrator is vital for me. I have had blow-dryers that cost twice this much that hasnt performed as well as this one has. I was introduced to it by my colleagues, so I was more excited than concerned when purchasing it. I am hoping the longevity of the blow-dryer lasts as long as my colleagues' has; theirs is going on 3 years strong. I hope this helped.

No. That used to happen with my old hair dryer, but these buttons are pretty tight, and it's not a problem, for the most part. I do wish that they would locate them on a different part of the appliance, because it can happen sometimes.

I had the same concern when I bought this dryer. I have very thick curly hair that goes down to the middle of my neck. When I wash my hair, I let it air dry for about 15-20 minutes and then get under the dryer for a maximum of 20 minutes, usually less time. I have a pile of magazines in front of the dryer and, quite frankly, I think I take longer than I need because I'm enjoying my reading material. I've had a great experience with this dryer - no complaints.

does it work in what way? It doesn't frizz... It's a hair dryer, it'll dry your hair, the rest goes to the tools you use ie diffuser/ roundbrush. I haven't had any problems with this dryer in the few years Ive had it.

The shields attached to the dryer are moveable and can be angled to hit that longer hair. The dryer blower is powerful enough that the air blows down well.

It is imperative to get any hair from the the hair dryer, ESP the air intake screen at the bottom. My hair is long so it doesn't get anywhere I can't easily pull it away. If hair gets on the heating elements it weakens them, will overheat & eventually burn them up. You may want to let your hair dry more before using this dryer. I use a more powerful one to do the majority of blow drying & use my infinity to smooth straighten & sculpt. Maybe use less product or until after you dry it. I love mine too! I also run it in the cool setting after each heat use.

Yes, I have very long hair and it sucked it in no matter how careful I was. It did damage the hair which I later had to cut. I do not recommend this for hair longer than shoulder length. The hair I did dry successfully was soft and shiny and it dried very quickly. I loved the small and light design. I just wish the screen was smaller so it wouldn't have been able to damage my hair.

I've not had any issues with it pulling out my hair. I actually bought this one because my old straightener used to pull multiple hairs out every time I used it.

I haven't have that exact problem but it could be hair stuck in the base of the fan that make it work intermittently.

You might have an accumulation of hair on the rotating part of the hair dryer. Remove the brush to clean, and if this isn't sufficient, you might have to unscrew the top cover to be able to clear the hair off the blower. I do this occasionally with my wife's dryer and it does the trick.

If you were using it when it happened chances are it overheated. Blow in the side of it until you hear another, softer pop and you'll be good to go. If it's anything else, I haven't a clue on how to fix it. I've never had a problem with this hair dryer. Good luck!

Air flow is low. My wife has curly hair also and she loves this dryer. I believe she uses a defuser also. She said it's the best dryer we have ever had. Hope this helps!

I own the Conair 1875 Infiniti Pro. It fits, but if you move it around too much it falls off. This is not the fault of the diffuser, it happens with most diffusers. The problem is the smooth as glass surface of most dryers and if there's a gradual size difference in the nozzle of the dryer the issue of it slipping off is worsened. I will most likely duct tape it to the dryer or add some kind of rubber tape or rubber band to the dryer nozzle (using one dryer only for the diffuser, my other dryers for when I don't need the diffuser). I know it sounds weird, but if you're a serious diffuser user like I am (I like this one the best), I feel it's worth doing what you must to keep it on the dryer you like best. I've had many other dryers but my Conair seems like the best for my hair type (and the best reviews so far). I've used other dryers (many good ones) and many diffusers (some not so great) and I feel this is the best diffuser and the Conair dryer is the best for curly frizzy prone hair, so I'm willing to do this. Honestly, who cares what it looks like as long as it does what you want, that's my feeling. I hope my suggestion helps.

No it does not pull your hair. I love mine. I have really long hair and it makes it so easy to straighten.
