INTRODUCTION

   Ever since i was a kid i had a somewhat common issue, whenever i got out during the winter with even slightly wet hair most of the times I’d get back home only to wake up next morning with a high fever. So strange as it may sound to some people (i know it did to some of my friends back in the day) i started using a hair dryer even before i went to junior high. On top of that since i didn't feel like using my mother’s (mostly because it was quite large and noisy) i got my very own and since i couldn't really afford a good one i ended up buying a compact travel model which had a DC motor inside (got me through school just fine). Eventually i started only buying semi-professional grade models with AC motors inside a couple of which surprisingly enough didn't last nowhere near as long as that travel model. Nowadays brushless models are taking over the market, not only because they promise better airflow levels and increased endurance compared to both traditional DC and AC models, but also due to significantly lower noise levels. Well since I’ve wanted to check that technology out for well over a year now when a company called Laifen reached out and asked if I’d like to test their Swift and Swift Special models i had no reason to say no.

   Laifen was established in 2019 by Hongxin Ye, a creative geek and his team of passionate developers, inspired by the idea that a well-developed motor could improve the performance of an appliance significantly. With the endeavor of over 2 years, Laifen has finally been equipped with the technology of 110000 rpm motor, and integrated it into an outstanding high speed hair dryer, balancing a perfect user experience with an economical price. We believe, with the efforts of Laifen, our users could enjoy daily life with higher efficiency and more convenience. In addition to hair dryer, Laifen has devoted herself into the popularization of high technology, bringing the latest technology and more enjoyments to every family.

   The Swift and Swift Special hair dryers are identical with just 2 differences, available colors and bundle contents. So even though the Swift is available in matte black, silver, white gold, white silver and red (ruby) colors (intro picture) the Swift Special is available in matte black, silver, white silver and red (ruby) colors (outro picture). In terms of bundle the Swift hair dryer includes 1 standard nozzle while the Swift Special hair dryer includes 1 standard nozzle, 1 diffuser nozzle and 1 quick styling nozzle. With that out of the way everything else remains the same, both models feature compact fire-resistant enclosures that weigh just 407g inside of which Laifen has placed brushless motors (T6061 aluminum alloy fan blades) with dynamic balance capable of reaching up to 110.000RPM to produce airflow levels of 22.291m/s with just 59dBA of noise (1000 hours lifespan - 1600W for 230V countries and 1400W for 120V countries), negative ion technology for optimal results (200 million negative ions), thermo sensor (real-time temperature monitoring), high density filters and both overheating and overcurrent protections. The Swift and Swift Special hair dryers also feature 360 degrees rotating magnetic nozzles, magnetic air inlet (filter cover), auto changing air mode (switches between cold and hot air automatically) and an LED ring which changes color according to air temperature (red for hot air, yellow for warm air and blue for cold air). Time to see if the Laifen Swift and Swift Special are worth your attention.
