There’s a energy change and a chilly shot button there may be on the deal with, however to the facet.
Sensible options
The Supersonic Nural has a number of distinctive good options that make the hair drying course of simpler. Scalp Safety Mode makes use of a time-of-flight (ToF) sensor and an infrared beam to detect when the dryer is approaching your head, robotically decreasing the temperature to 131 levels Fahrenheit.
