8 Best Affordable Blow Dryers Under $60, Reviewed

No matter where we find ourselves in the world, when I travel with my mother, we often fall into a crisis. You’d think any decent hotel room would come stocked with a classic hot tool, but we’ve found the lack of fun more often than you’d think.

That said, I have plenty of experience walking into a drugstore and grabbing an affordable blow dryer to tackle a last-minute style problem. Sometimes I even bring extra home, just in case! Not my Dyson, of course; I’d be sad if she was left under the dirty sink and never saw him again. But there are plenty of good dryers out there—the price tags fall under a bit more luxurious hair tools on the market—will get the job done.

Previously, I shared my favorite affordable hair dryers for all hair types. Because, as celebrity stylist Andrew Fitzsimons, told earlier MC“Having a hair dryer that works for your hair is very important.” Whether you find yourself in the same dilemma or just want a new tool to practice holding your round brush, there’s an option for you—for $60 or less.
