Consumers’ demands for hair dryers are becoming increasingly diverse, and the hot and cold air switching function has become one of the core selling points of modern hair dryers. Users may still have questions about the applicable scenarios and correct usage of the hot and cold air functions.
As a professional hair dryer supplier, I will take you to understand the subtle differences between hot and cold air hair dryers.
The Essential Difference Between Cold Wind and Hot Wind
How It Works
- Hot air: The built-in electric heating wire heats the air to quickly evaporate the moisture in the hair and shorten the drying time.
- Cold air: Uses normal temperature airflow to output cold air to help shape and reduce heat damage to the hair.
Temperature and Effect
- Hot air: The temperature range is usually 50°C~80°C, which is suitable for quick hair drying, but long-term high temperature may damage the hair scales and dry the hair.
- Cold air: The temperature is close to room temperature, which can shrink the hair scales, lock in moisture, improve the gloss of the hair, and help to shape curls or styles.
Applicable Stage
- Hot air: It is more effective when used on wet hair (before 80% dry).
- Cold air: Use it at the end of blow-drying or when styling to enhance durability.

Scientific Suggestions for Using the Hot and Cold Air Function
Use in Stages to Reduce Damage
- Wet hair stage: Use medium-low heat (50°C~60°C) to blow until half dry, and avoid high temperature blowing directly on the scalp at close range.
- Styling stage: Switch to cold air mode and blow from the roots to the ends in the direction of the hair scales to help close the hair scales and reduce frizz.
Choose a Mode Based on Hair Type
- Fine/damaged hair: Use low-temperature hot air setting first, and use cold air setting to set the hair to avoid high temperature making it more fragile.
- Coarse/curly hair: Use medium-high temperature hot air to dry the hair, and then use cold air to lock the curls.
Avoid Common Mistakes
Blowing hair with high temperature for a long time: It may cause dry scalp and hair breakage. It is recommended to keep the hair dryer at least 15cm away from the hair.
Cold air is only used for styling: Cold air can also be used alone in summer to quickly cool down without damaging the hair.
