+ 1 my blow out takes 15 minutes max and I have thick fine hair. My stylist doesn't pull my hair much. She gives me more volume than I can do at home. My blowout looks very natural.

Once every three week and about 5x a year when I am traveling on business and want a lasting style.

Ok first of all, to the PP who said you "never" need a blowout if you have straight hair. This is true, but no one said they "needed" a blowout. They said they DID blowouts. The question from the op was not "who needs a blowout?"
I'm the PP who does it 2x/month, and I don't need it, my hair is stick straight. I do it because I want to. Because it gives me a break from having to dry my hair myself.
As to the damage issue...
If the correct person dries your hair, someone who is trained and does all the things that articles say you should do (keep the dryer moving, use a protectant, etc), I see nothing that says that having someone do this to you is any worse/better than you doing it to yourself. My hair dryer is a professional model, its the same as what the salons use.
Sure, NEVER blow drying your hair is better than blow drying it. But for those of us whose hair looks like shit (or like me, where it would look awful AND air drying would take more than overnight....), its kind of an irrelevant point....
Blow out your hair if you want to. If your hair is damaged, my guess is that you will know it...if you can't tell your own hair is damaged, you have bigger problems than how often to dry your hair.

Your hair may not look damaged to you but there's no chance with constant blow-outs - WHICH USE VERY HOT AIR - that it won't happen. You're not immune from it.

It's bad for everyone's hair, regardless of how thick or thin your hair is. This is a fact. So yes, you are damaging your hair, you just don't care.
Not PP, but I frequently get blowouts and my hair is very healthy, shiny and strong. Look at the ends and you will not see damage. I would care if it were damaged....but it's not. So I suppose you are the one who needs to get your facts straight and stop making blanket statements.
It's literally an actual fact.
