"If you watch *Mad Men,* you might think that sitting under a hood dryer at the local beauty parlor while getting a manicure and gossiping is a glamorous way to spend the afternoon. But I can say, based on personal experience, that hood dryers are more hot than glam. I just had a blowout with Anthony Dickey, a stylist who religiously uses hood dryers at [his brand new salon](http://www.hairrules.com) (shown below) in New York City. According to him, hood dryers are the best way to keep a style intact and add volume to fine or straight hair. In his book, *[Hair Rules!](http://www.hairrules.com)*, he says, \\\"The set lasts longer and hair has more luster and shine as there's no stress on it from a blow-dryer's direct heat,\\\" he says. He was right. After sitting under the barrel with rollers in my hair for 40 minutes, my normally-limp hair had tons of bounce and a glossy finish that lasted for days and days.\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n[#image: /photos/57717e4c8d432b9e20f8d0b8]||||||"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
