How Lucine works

Lucine is one hairdryer with manual drying, automatic InfraSonic cycling and a separate dual-wavelength light control.

See the three systems

Manual drying: you choose the output.

Slide to I for low airflow or II for high airflow. Click the temperature button to move through cold, warm and hot.

The 110,000 RPM motor moves approximately 21–57 litres of air per second. Strong airflow can move part of the water physically, so drying does not depend on heat alone.

Setting Best for
Low air + cold Scalp comfort, setting the style and delicate areas
Low air + warm Fine hair, precision styling and curl definition
High air + warm Everyday fast drying for most hair
High air + hot Short, moving passes through thick or dense wet sections

InfraSonic: Lucine changes the output for you.

Long-press the temperature button. Lucine begins a repeating cycle that moves airflow from very high to very low and temperature from approximately 20°C to 105°C and back through the range.

The goal is not simply to make air hotter. The cycle changes the way air and water move through the hair.

Effect What happens Why it matters
Droplet displacement Fast air pushes surface droplets away before all water must evaporate. Less dependence on heat alone.
Bundle separation Changing air opens and relaxes groups of fibres. Air can reach wetter inner strands in dense, wavy and curly sections.
Moisture equalisation Outer and inner fibres move towards a more even dry state. The outside is less likely to keep drying while the inside stays wet.
Return to cold The cycle lowers fibre temperature after hot phases. Hair can settle and the styled shape can set.

Click = fixed temperature. Long-press = InfraSonic.

Dual-wavelength light control: one IR button.

The five-pod front combines 660 nm visible red light with 850 nm near-infrared light. Both switch on together.

The visible red glow confirms the 660 nm channel. The 850 nm channel is mostly invisible to the eye.

The IR button controls the light system separately from the temperature ring.

Temperature ring Shows heat stage only; it is not the light-care system

Negative ions switch on when Lucine is powered.

Hair can build electrical charge through friction and dry air. Lucine uses high-volume airflow to spread negative charge across the hair, helping control static and flyaways and supporting a smoother finish. There is no separate ion button.

Colour Stage Meaning
Blue Cold, around 20°C Cool and set
Amber Intermediate InfraSonic phase, around 50°C Warm transition
Red Maximum hot phase, 105°C Hottest stage; keep Lucine moving

The full system in one sentence

Lucine uses high-volume air to move water, controlled heat to support evaporation and shaping, negative ions to help manage static, a return to cold to help set the finish, and optional dual-wavelength light for the scalp.
