You may be familiar with the fact that you need to switch on and off your Dyson Supersonic when you blow dry your hair.
Dyson states, "Your hair dryer was precisely designed to dry and style your hair at the voltage in which you purchased it." Because voltage can vary from one country to the next, you should refer to the instructions in your manual's guarantee section for guidance.
The Dyson Supersonic hair dryer measures the air temperature more than 40 times per second and regulates heat. This helps protect your hair's beauty and prevents heat damage.
Since 2018, I have owned the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer. While I love it, it is not for everyone. Although it prevents heat damage from the hair, the price is prohibitive and may not be the best option for everyone.
Intelligent heat control
My medium-length bob just touches my shoulders. And I have curtain bangs which are in desperate need for a trim. My curtain bangs have been with me for two years. However, curtain bangs take a lot of styling so I have to ensure they remain in place every day.
I bought the Dyson Supersonic hairdryer in order to test it with three different hair types.
My medium-length bob cuts just barely reach my shoulders. I also have curtain bangs in dire need of being trimmed. Curtain bangs have been my constant companion for the past two years. I don't think I could ever imagine changing my hairstyle. Curtain bangs are a complicated style, so I must make sure they stay in place.
Those are some pretty inflated numbers. Dyson vacuums are well-worth the money, so why not use them for your hair tools as well? The claim that Supersonic can increase shine by 132% was something I wasn't convinced of. It seems subjective. But, I was curious to find out if the claims of decreasing frizz and protecting against heat damage were true.
Two editors with different hair textures and lengths came up with a unanimous verdict: The Dyson Supersonic Dryer is worth the effort.
The Dyson hair dryer is a great choice. It takes half the time and leaves my hair feeling dry.
The hair dryer can cause hair to get dry and rough, which can result in hair losing its color (1). The heat can make gray hair brassy or yellowish (2). Maybe it's because my hair dryers kept putting out crap.
Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer Review - Yes, it's worth $450
It is 35% more efficient than other hair dryers, if I could put a number to it. I save time every time I blow dry my hair, but the real value is the reduction in extreme heat damage over the course of time.
My fine, straight hair almost never looks alive because it is so thin. My hair feels flat against my head without much effort, which makes it appear even thinner than what it really is. My hair is still my natural color, and I haven't bleached it in over a whole year. So, my hair is essentially my natural color with some dimension from past highlights. I do have some problems, however, because my hair is oily even without color. I can only go one day without washing my hair and then my hair looks terrible the second day. I'm now washing my hair more than I've ever done before, and doing all that I can to keep my ends moisturized.
Whatever the reason might be, I know I was ready and willing to put Dyson Supersonic hair dryer to the test.
The Dyson hair dryer stands out from the rest because it drys my hair in half the time.
Dyson claims they have tried various hair types and developed attachments to suit different styles.
I was hooked. Dyson dryers dry hair much faster than others. The first time it was used, I used my phone's timer to record the time. The result? 1:40:11. It took me less that two minutes to dry the whole head. It takes longer to dry my hair than it does to make instant coffee. This alone was enough to make the Dyson worth my money. I am usually late, but I don’t worry if there is enough time to do my hair. I always have two minutes.
My straight, fine hair looks almost lifeless. My hair is flat against my head and looks even thinner than it really is. My hair hasn't been bleached in over a year. My hair is almost entirely natural, with a touch of highlighting at the ends. My hair is very oily without any color. I can last just one day between washes and my hair is still looking bad the next day. So, I am washing my hair more than ever before and doing all I can to keep my ends healthy and moisturized.
Magnetic attachments
My only regret is not buying it sooner. While it is an investment, the Dyson has made my hair life so much easier. The Dyson takes 30 minutes instead of the hour drying with other dryers. The Dyson is worth every minute because of its time-saving features. Avoiding heat damage is a key part of my journey to healthy locks. I feel confident that the Dyson will protect my hair from damage and dry it in a flash. I no longer feel the need to sacrifice hair health just so that my hair doesn't get wet all day. That is a great thing for me.
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).
Since 2018, I have owned the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer. While I love it, it is not for everyone. Although it prevents heat damage from the hair, the price is prohibitive and may not be the best option for everyone.
Is a hair dryer that costs more than $400 worth it? I've owned the Dyson Supersonic dryer since 2018, and I love it. However, I don't think it's right for everyone. You want to know my honest opinion? Keep reading...
A hair dryer that is great for drying your hair has become an essential part of modern life. Perhaps it's because a hair dryer can dry out hair, causing hair to become rough and brittle (1). Perhaps it's because heat can cause gray hair to turn brassy (or yellowish). It could be that I got sick of my hair dryers exploding.
The dryer prevents heat damage but is expensive and not the best for everyone.
Magnetic attachments
Fast drying No extreme heat. Made for various hair types.
Magnetic attachments are also very appealing to me. I have dropped my hairdryer, cracked the diffuser screw and been left without a diffuser attachment. Sometimes the attachment's screw-in is no longer attached because it becomes threadbare. I can recall duct taped one of my attachments onto my old hair dryer. It didn't work. These things will not happen with Dyson magnetic attachments. Attachments for your whole life, y'all.
There are barrels for curling and wave making it easier to style your hair. You can also use brushes to smoothen or volumize your hair.
A resounding yes, yes, yes. It was unbelievable that a $400 piece of plastic could have such an effect on me. But I don't mind. My Dyson hair dryer is the best I have ever used. I gave my old dryers away to my mom and my friends after I bought it. My hair is healthier than ever. I can thank my Dyson hair dryer for making my hair look great.
Each attachment is specifically designed to style specific hair types.
Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer Review: It's worth $400
Although it is not silent, I believe it to be a lot quieter than others. It is quoted by some sources at 75 decibels, while others say 79. If you are interested in getting technical,
The bottom line: The Dyson Supersonic blew away the competition when it came to drying speed, strongest airflow, and consumer satisfaction in our
extensive testing. If you're in the market for a new hair dryer — and have some savings built up — it's proven to be the best hair dryer you can buy.
For this experiment I washed my hair, toweled it up for exactly six minutes while I lotioned up and got dressed and then blew my hair out.
With the Dyson hair dryer, drying my hair took seven minutes.
Unlike some others, the Dyson Supersonic™ hair dryer measures air temperature over 40 times a second, and regulates the heat.
This prevents extreme heat damage, to help protect your hair's shine.
Dyson says it's less damaging to your hair. The dryer allegedly prevents extreme heat damage by measuring the temperature 20 times a second to
ensure that it is consistently at a healthy temperature for your hair.
