The 8 Best Hair Diffusers for Curly Hair
TikTok has taught us two very important things: feta cheese is great in pasta, and that caring for curls makes for excellent content. Videos of people discovering their natural curls have amassed millions of views and likes on the platform. But whether you’re just discovering your coils or you’re old friends, there’s one thing you need in your haircare arsenal: a diffuser.
What Is a Diffuser?
Diffusers are blow dryer attachments that, well, diffuse the air, rather than blowing directly in one spot (which is more useful when brush-styling). This action helps dry the hair more evenly, creates volume, and keeps the end style more defined. They’re especially great for 2B-4C hair types, as they help maintain the shape of natural curls and waves. Some hair dryers come with diffuser attachments, but you can also purchase them separately and attach them right on whatever model you have. Read on for eight diffuser options worth trying, no matter what you're looking for.
