What the gurus are saying
The tool's standout strength is how quickly it creates a polished, voluminous look without the tension of traditional styling, earning strong praise from dermatologists and stylists alike for gentle heat and lasting hold that means less frequent washing. Most gurus spotlight its versatility across attachments and the speed of styling, though a couple of reviewers found the straightening function less effective and noted that truly sleek results sometimes require pairing it with a separate flat iron. The price is steep, but the consensus is that the range of styling options and durability justify the investment for anyone who styles regularly.

"I bought mine a couple years ago and mine's still kicking, I love my Dyson Airwrap. It's definitely more of an investment, a major investment beauty product, but it's one that I use all the time and continue to use. If you've ever seen my hair with the big loose curls, that's what I always use, I always use my Airwrap. It's just so good."

Last Month's #1 Products + My Thoughts on Dyson Airwrap..
"This doesn't just live up to the hype for me, it exceeded the hype. I was kind of steered away from it because I'm not somebody who's good at hair and I thought the Dyson Airwrap was made for people like that, but then literally after the first time I used it I was like why did I not get this earlier. The things that it has done for my hair, I've never been able to achieve before. My hair type is a little bit more fine so it doesn't hold style the way some people's do, but the way that this looks is not something I've ever been able to achieve before. I'm obsessed with this thing. It is pricey, it's quite an investment, but I am somebody who does beauty things myself at home, so this works really well for me."

"I think I'm ready for the Dyson Airwrap. I literally for years I'm like no I never do my hair whatever whatever but I'm pushing 30 I'm going to turn 30 next year and I was like you know what a Dyson Airwrap feels like it fits my 30s. It's such a splurge, it's actually an insane price point, but you know TikTok has convinced me it took me like three years to be convinced but I think I'm convinced."

"This is something that is absolutely an investment but I truly feel like has leveled up my hair care routine. I do a lot of heat styling for my hair and my hair is also bleached so it's very prone to damage and by incorporating the Dyson Air Wrap into my routine I feel like I don't have to heat style it as often because the style really lasts and it has gentle heat for my hair so it's less damaging. If you find your hair to be a bit more limp or fine the Dyson Air Wrap is such a good way to get a lot of volume. I use the big barrel attachment and I blow dry it away from my face and I get so much height when I do that. There are so many different styling things you can use the Dyson for. I use it as my main blow dryer. I also use it to give myself a blowout and if I just want loose bouncy curls the Dyson is great for that. I also find that when I use it to style my hair it really lifts my hair up and off of my head which not only gives me volume but it also means I don't have to wash my hair as often because I find that it doesn't get greasy as fast. This is a pricier gift but if you have like a mother a sister a personal desire to use the Dyson I think you cannot go wrong."
Top 6 Beauty Investments For Fuller Hair and More | Dr. Sam Ellis
"I invested in a Dyson Air Wrap because I do style my hair a lot, my hair is also bleached so it has a lot of damage to it, and I really wanted to be using heat on my hair in a more responsible way. I'm not blow drying my hair every day, I only wash my hair a couple times a week, but I have some pretty gnarly flyaways up in the front and when I get sweaty during a workout or sweaty in clinic they start to kind of show themselves, so even if I'm not using the Dyson throughout my hair every single day I will use it to refresh the front pieces every day just so that it lays a little bit nicer. The front of my hair is not only an area that gets a lot more heat because it needs to be styled more often but it's also where all my postpartum regrowth is coming in, so I want to be extra careful with those pieces. I use all the attachments actually, but the other one that I use a lot is the round brush, and the blow dry attachment that I use every single time I'm blow drying my hair. It has been so amazing for my hair."
Dermatologists' NO FAIL Hair Care Routine for Thinning Hair | Dr. Sam Ellis
"I love my Dyson Airwrap so so much. I don't use all of the attachments, but I use this as my main blow dryer. I own a Dyson blow dryer and I never use it, I just use this. I will say the Dyson just has like a little something up on the T3 alternative."
"It is the Dyson Airwrap Long Complete Styler. I'm not even kidding when I say that no hair dryer, none, works as well as this baby does. I actually was recently traveling for a week and obviously I don't bring my Dyson with me and so I was using like different hair dryers and every single day my hair was so flat, no volume, constantly moving around, getting in my face even though I was using the exact same hair products that I always use. The only difference was that I wasn't using the Dyson Airwrap. Every single time I use this hair dryer, there is an extreme noticeable difference, not just to me, but to other people in how well my hair holds, how healthy it feels, that it's not too dry, the volume. Before that, I was a hater cuz I was like, how could you justify spending this much money on a hairdryer when you can very easily get like a $50 one? And then I used it for the first time at I believe a hair salon. Never looked back. Immediately bought it. I absolutely love this hairdryer. I've tried so many like dupes and alternatives to see if anything compares and nothing does. And I understand that it seems like this does have like a serious cult following because so many people use and recommend this even though it is a ridiculous price point. But I got to be honest, like if you could see what my hair looks like without this versus what it looks like with this night and day."

"The Dyson Airwrap has saved my life. I do not know how to style my hair, I don't think I will ever have an official lesson with a hair stylist like I did with a makeup artist, but that Dyson hair dryer makes it appear like I put some effort when I put zero effort in."

"If you're going to buy a Dyson, now is the time. I have their Airwrap and I love it; I use it pretty much every day to dry my hair. I'm even tempted to buy the one that straightens your hair."
"The Dyson Airwrap is $499, 23% off. What you do is you also get the hair dryer setting, which is kind of nice. So you get more features, you get more bang for your buck than just buying like an expensive hair dryer. I actually have both, so I kind of know, but yeah, I think the Airwrap you'll get more utility out of it."
"I had just gotten the Dyson Airwrap at about the same time because at that stage I was more interested in the curls, the waves, the body that I could get from the airwrap. But the longer that my hair has gotten the more I wear it straight. I like it super straight. But that means to get the really really good effect I have to use two different devices so I'm blow drying my hair first and then I'm going in with the straightener after that. That's not really great for my hair."
"I'm obsessed with my air wrap. It makes like it makes I can achieve this round brush look but like in 10 minutes like so fast. You can brush the back of your hair, you don't put so much tension on your hair and you can use that brush attachment. I love it, it really is good for you, like when you're doing your own hair it just makes it so much easier."
"She recommended the Dyson hair dryer curler thingy. I think it's basically like a vacuum for your hair but it like curls it. She was telling me that it's the most amazing thing, apparently she used it to blow out her hair that morning and her hair looks great. The issue is that it's like 600. I do not want to pay full price for that. I am not going to get it unless it's on sale. I'm going to see if it actually works on my curly hair. I want to see if it actually works on my styled hair or on my hair naturally."
"The hot tool I use for blow drying is the Dyson Airwrap. I use the rough blow attachment first, aiming the air down the hair shaft so it doesn't frizz, until my hair is about 80 to 85 percent dry. Then I switch to the paddle brush attachment to smooth and sleek my hair and get the cowlicks to lay flat, and finish with the round brush attachment for a little root lift and bend in my bangs. If I'm doing a basic blowout with just 10 or 15 minutes, this is what my hair comes out looking like, and I think it's great, so much better than it ever would have looked me trying to just blow it with a round brush."

"It is my favorite hair styling tool. I so missed it while I was away because two weeks without it, you know, it doesn't work in Europe, but when I got home, I practically ran into my bathroom and like kissed my Dyson. I was so happy to be back with it. It makes my hair look really good and I highly recommend that."

"I use the Dyson Airwrap with the round brush attachment. Those are really good because they are one unit, and one of the things you want to pay attention to if you're using a good brush and your blow dryer is where you actually direct that air. With the round brush, you don't have the ability to control where that air is going so you can't move that nozzle so that it's pointing down your hair."

Faves + Fails May 2025 | Spring Lippie, New NIRA, Mother's Day Sales
"I wanted to just include my fail for the video and that is this Dyson Airwrap attachment that I got because when I blow it with the blower attachment that comes with it, I always felt like it caused a lot of flyaways up here. But I saw this and I thought, 'Oo, I wonder if that's going to give me like a sleeker blowout.' I really can only use it on one side of my head. It's too awkward to use it on this side. You have to hold it at an angle, like really facing down your hair in order for it to work. Otherwise, it just blows up and down like everything else. So it's really just creating that angle of blowing down, which works on the side that your dominant hand is on. But to blow this side, I usually just reach over. When I reach over this way, it's aiming more like this, and so things are blowing up. Anyway, I just don't love it for this side. I would have to blow dry lefty on this side to have it go right. And I'm just not coordinated enough to blow dry lefty. It's making me feel so uncoordinated and the angle's so weird. It could be me, could be user error, but it's not like, 'Oh my god, it revolutionized my hair. It's amazing.' I was like, 'Yeah, it's okay. I can get the same blowout with the original attachment without having had to purchase this guy.'"

"This is my original one I've had this for seven or eight years now so even though it's a huge investment it lasts and it comes with all the attachments that you need to do your hair so it's like a one-and-done. It has the blow dryer attachment which I use almost every day or every day that I dry my hair. Then I love this paddle brush, this is really what I use to smooth and sleekify my hair and make it super shiny and nice. And then lately I've been using the round brush attachment to do my bangs and to give me a little bit of curl on the end. If you're looking to get a Dyson and you want to get it at a discount price, definitely try to get one during the sale."

"The Dyson Airwrap Long Complete Styler is the best blow dryer styler that I've ever used. I actually reviewed this when it first came out way back in 2019, so five years ago, and this is my original Dyson Airwrap. This thing is built like a tank. I've never had a problem with it. I don't love the Airwrap attachments on it, that's the one thing that I don't love, but I love it as my blow dryer. It cut my blow dry time down from about half an hour to 10 minutes because something about the Dyson air, it pushes it through with such velocity that it can use less heat and it dries your hair faster. Everything is magnetized so you just pop them on and off. I go in with the paddle brush attachment and I blow my hair nice and sleek, and then just to finish my bangs and the ends I put on the round brush attachment. Then I can style my bangs, get them to go the right way away from my face, I can curl the end. They come in sets based on how your hair is, so if you have curly hair they'll give you the attachments to do your curly hair."

You know it's expensive, but I've had this one for I don't know six or seven years now and it's so great. It's just the best hair dryer ever."

"The blow dryer that I use is my Dyson Airwrap. I love this guy. I bought it a couple years ago to review it and have never used another blow dryer since. I love the rough blowout attachment and my favorite part is this little paddle brush attachment. Using the Dyson, I can get my hair so smooth and so sleek. It really has made all the difference in my hair. I blow dry my entire head of hair in under 10 minutes. It's got a lot of shine to it and it looks really pretty."

"I don't love the air wrap portion of it, but for me it's still worth it to have it just for the blow dryer and for the paddle brush attachment. I love those two so much.

The Dyson power, the way it shoots the air and doesn't ever get too hot, it never burns your hair or anything."

"I love my Dyson Airwrap. It's the only blow dryer and styler that I use for blow drying my hair now. However, for me the Dyson is a little hard to recommend because it costs 550 dollars and I really only use two pieces of it. I use the rough dry and I use the paddle brush."

"The Dyson Airwrap is another big ticket item that has also become a Holy Grail. I love this paddle brush attachment, this is my favorite to dry my hair with, and I also love the rough blowout attachment. I'm not a huge fan of the curling attachments for me because they just take too long and I much prefer my GHD curling iron. Since I bought this they've come up with a couple of cool new attachments that you can buy separately like there's a longer air wrap barrel and there's also like a frizz flyaway attachment that I want to try."

"Another product that I missed so much while I was on vacation was my Dyson Airwrap. I've gotten a lot of questions lately about if I'm going to test the new one. I have the other one, I'm not sure that there's a huge difference between the old one and the new one."
Is This $250 Styler BETTER Than $600 Dyson? Shark FlexStyle Vs Dyson Airwrap!
"The Dyson just wins almost hands down for me. It's nicer to my hair because it dries with less heat and more air velocity, which keeps my hair so much healthier. The cool shot is far superior on the Dyson compared to other options—it's immediately cool within a couple of seconds and stays nice and cool. The placement of the cool shot button is excellent; I can easily access it with one finger while working. For rough blowouts and paddle brush drying, the Dyson is a little bit better, though the curling attachment takes way too long. My main complaint about the Dyson curling attachment is that it takes too long, but the curls last six or seven hours before they fall out, which is much better than alternatives."
