There are a few key signs to determine whether it’s time to replace your hair dryer. If you notice a burning smell while you’re styling your hair, it’s likely that your hair dryer is too old. The smell may be because its ability to draw electricity from the outlet has withered over the years so it’s overheating, or it means that it’s actually burning your hair as you dry it. Another cue to replace your blow dryer is when drying your mane is taking way longer than it used to, or if your hair is turning out frizzier than where you started. If the buttons stop working or you hear a rattling noise within the dryer, it’s time to break up and move on to the next.

Level up your hair dryer with these discounted prices on the best hair dryers around, because it’d be silly not to take advantage of the Amazon Prime Day beauty sale extravangza. What’s more, if you purchase now, you’ll be able to navigate the learning curve of getting to know all the ins and outs of your new styling tool — just in time for summer when we’re going to want to let down our hair and spend all our spare time in the sun. We bet after drying your hair with your new hair dryer, your only regret will be wondering why you waited so long.
