I've had this dryer for 4+ years and have never cleaned the filter. Oops. Dyson recommends cleaning it with a soft, dry cloth once a month.
My hair is curly, a mix of 3b and 3c curls. I spent most my puberty years straightening my hair by all means. At 18 I decided enough was enough, and started to learn about how to care for my curls. Now, I have mastered hair care. I know what products to use, how it should be styled, how to sleep with it (I could write a book about how to sleep with curly hair), as well as how to maintain it healthy. What is the result? The result? I have long, healthy curls. The extremely long drying time is the only thing I can do without. The Dyson hair dryer is the solution.
Is a hair dryer costing $400+ worth it? I've been using the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer for a year now. I love it. But, I can't recommend it to everyone. Read my honest review. Continue reading...
I've had this dryer for 4+ years and have never cleaned the filter. Oops. Dyson recommends cleaning it with a soft, dry cloth once a month.
I was blown away when I bought the Dyson.


Although I originally purchased the Dyson Supersonic hairdryer to test it on three types of hair, I ended up using it only on my own hair and that of a close friend. While $400 may seem like a high price for a hairdryer, the Dyson was able to diffuse my 28 inch long curly hair in five minutes. It also caused less damage than traditional dryers.
Magnetic attachments are a great option. I've had to drop my hairdryer several times and break the diffuser part. Sometimes, the threaded part of an attachment can become loose and not attach. I recall specifically ducttaping one of the attachments to my old dryer. That didn't work. With the Dyson magnet attachments, these things won't be possible. Attachments for all of life!
Dyson Supersonic hair dryers are designed to protect hair from severe heat damage.
It's not a big deal to pop the attachment back on if it falls off during a blow drying.
Dyson claims they've tried different hair types in the lab and have developed a range attachments that can style different types.

Rapid drying No extreme heat. Different hair types can be accommodated.
I wanted to do a rough calculation so I measured my last blowout. I washed my hair and towel dried it for six minutes. After that, I got dressed, lotioned up, and then I blew my hair out. My hair dried in seven minutes using the Dyson hair dryer.
I wanted to be able to quantify this so I measured the time of my last blowout. This experiment involved washing my hair, drying it on a towel for six minutes, then getting dressed. Finally, I blew my head out. It took me seven minutes to dry my hair using the Dyson dryer.
The Styling Concentrator is what I use nine times out of ten. The diffuser helps me define my hair and keep it from frizzing.

Review of My Dyson Supersonic hair dryer
Four precise heat settings
This luxury, high-powered hair dryer gives you a great blow dry and also saves time.
The Dyson Supersonic's cable length is 9 feet. While the professional hair dryer's cord length is 11 feet, it has a length of 9 feet.
Dyson Supersonic is touted as a magic hair dryer with more promises than others. Dyson claims that the Supersonic protects hair from heat damage and offers fast drying and controlled styling to improve smoothness, shine, frizz, and flyaways. *"

I love magnetic attachments. In the past I have lost my hairdryer and broken the diffuser screw.
Dyson claims the Supersonic has a lower percentage of hair damage than it actually claims. However, I can tell you what my hair feels like after using a Dyson dryer (not fried) or when I straighten it (fried).
The next thing I knew I was a Dyson fan. The Dyson blow dryer is faster than other hair dryers. When I first used it, I recorded the drying time on my smartphone. The result? 1:40:11. It took me less than two minutes to dry my entire head. My hair is fine and short, but I find it takes longer to make instant coffee. This alone made me decide that the Dyson was worth it. Although I often run late, I don't worry about whether I have enough time to dry my hair now. I have always got two minutes.
Whatever the reason, I just know that I was eager to test the Dyson Supersonic Dryer.
Dyson is lightweight and balanced. The motor has been placed in the handle. This completely rebalances the dryer's shape and weight.

The Dyson came with everything, which was my first impression. My hair dryer was only equipped with the dryer. Any accessories I wanted (diffusers or concentrators etc.) were not included in my other dryer. I had no choice but to order them separately.
A resounding yes, yes, yes. I had no idea that a $400 lump of plastic would have such a grip on me. However, it does. I have given away all my other dryers, including the Dyson hair dryer, to my mom (and friends) since I received it. My hair has never looked better. Good health, no bleach and lots of Olaplex are the reasons my hair looks so good.
Dyson isn’t lying when he says that hair feels less damaged after using Supersonic. Dyson claims that the Supersonic reduces hair damage by up to 80%. I am not a professional hairstylist so I cannot confirm these percentages. I know how my hair feels after using a Dyson straightener (not fried).
Five attachment tools are included with the Dyson hair dryer.
When I finally bought my Dyson, it was an instant swoon (LOL). It's lightweight and sleek, unlike the bulky hair dryers I used, and it's easy to use. I have never seen a hair dryer like the Dyson. The heat controls of the Dyson are some of the most precise and effective I've seen. This technology also ensures that my hair is not damaged by heat too high. This part of my hair care routine is something I look forward to with the Dyson.
