It also has a nice variety of speed and airflow settings to choose from. There are 3 separate temperature setting and 2 different speeds for controlling the volume of air that flows out of it.

The Signature Feature on the Baby Buttercup Blow Dryer
Why bother using a worn out hotel hair dryer when you can fold and take the Baby Buttercup Blow Dryer with you easily on your next trip. It is so very portable because of its compact design and very lightweight. It weighs under 14 ounces and measures just 9″ x 8″ x 3″.
Also included in this package is a handy carry bag that will protect this travel dryer as you move around. It even has a catchy and funny slogan on the bag “I am full of hot air”. So it is a practical and stylish blow dryer too.
Areas That Could Use Improvement with Baby Buttercup Travel Hair Dryer
Most of the time when a professional hair dryer includes ionic technology it will give hair an increased amount of shine and less frizz. That is not totally the case with the Baby Buttercup Blow Dryer. Although it did help eliminate frizz many users did not experience getting some extra shine on their hair strands with it
Some users also claimed that due to the folding handle technology the activation buttons for heat and airspeed were not easy to use with one hand. This is especially true for those people with small size hands. Not a deal breaker but something to think about if that sort of thing is important to you.
Review Summary
This Baby Buttercup Blow Dryer is definitely a nice travel hair dryer but one can’t help but think Drybar should have put a little more emphasis on the features of the dryer itself and focused less on its support kit. With that being said, it still is very compact and lightweight travel dryer. Its folding handle design is also very convenient and the ionic technology that’s built into it nicely compliments the power it has. It is definitely a product worth considering if you are in the market for a creative, dual voltage travel dryer.
