A member asked:

Can ionic hair dryer cause hair loss?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ionic hair dryer: Only if it is not used carefully. Read all the instructions. Better still go online and look up all you can about "Ionic Hair Dryer" and then "Potential side effects of ionic hair dryer". Do the wrong think and you won't like the outcome.
