If your hair is... Fine & Thin:

• Heat Setting: Low
• Speed Setting: Medium
• Why: Low heat helps to prevent damage while medium speed provides enough airflow to dry the hair efficiently without flattening it.

If your hair is... Thick:

• Heat Setting:  High
• Speed Setting: High
• Why: Thick hair benefits from higher heat to dry efficiently and higher speed to quickly move through dense sections of hair.

If your hair is... Curly:

• Heat Setting: Low - Medium
• Speed Setting: Low
• Why: Using lower heat and speed minimises frizz and helps maintain the natural curl pattern while gently drying. Use the mdlondon diffuser for optimal curls!

If your hair is... Wavy:

• Heat Setting:  Medium
• Speed Setting: Medium
• Why: These settings help enhance and define natural waves while reducing drying time and frizz.

If your hair is... Straight:

• Heat Setting: Medium
• Speed Setting: Medium - High
• Why: Medium heat ensures smoothness and shine, while medium to high speed can help add volume at the roots if needed.
