Yes, you read that correctly! Babyliss PRO (a world-wide leader in the beauty industry) has (oddly enough) paired up with Ferrari (yes...THAT Ferrari!) to design the high-performance, luxury hair dryers in the Volare collection.
According to www.babylissus.com, these dryers feature a "Ferrari-designed V12 engine," an ultra-efficient, high-speed, turbo-powered engine designed for maximum airflow, minimum weight, and low vibration, all of which delivers faster drying for the salon professional with a "need for speed!"
Ferrari-Designed V12 Engine: Designed for Performance & Longevity
- V12 Engine: Offers smooth run and high torque for superior performance
- World's 1st Ball-bearing blow dryer engine: Significantly reduce friction and vibration for a smoother, high-performance operation
- Extended Engine Brushes: Provides up to 300% longer engine life than that of typical dryer motors
- Ferrari Engine: Produces more torque and less disruption of air to produce greater air pressure and stronger airflow
- Precision Insert-Molded Construction: Improves rotor stability and, in combination with the ball-bearing design, results in a higher-performance engine
- Turbo Power: Increases air pressure up to 15% for faster drying
The Babyliss PRO Volare is available in 2 sizes, and each size is available in 2 colors....Black, and Ferrari Red, of course!
This full-size dryer delivers intense air pressure and includes a turbo button for an instant burst of extra-powerful air for high-speed drying.

I have to admit, at first glance, I thought..."C'mon now, are you serious?" However, after some thought, I am totally intrigued! Plus, if it dries hair faster, with less effort, a $200 FERRARI engine is definitely worth it - especially for busy salons drying head of hair after head of hair, all day long. Maybe it is my fascination with cars and driving fast, but I think the collaboration between Babyliss PRO and Ferrari is cool as heck! What do you think? Cool, or a bit much?
