"I used to dry my hair in 40 minutes to an hour with what I thought was a salon [...] grade hair dryer and now it takes me 5 to 10 minutes. My go-to hair dryer is the Dyson Supersonic [...] Hair Dryer. It's fast drying with intelligent heat control to prevent damage. You can control the levels of heat and the levels at which the air comes out and it has a cold shot. It literally is the best hair dryer in my opinion.

"I absolutely love my Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer. I love it because I've been through so much [...] with this. Maximum wind minimum heat, which means it maximizes the drying power but minimizes the damage. [...] I've never found a dryer lighter, more effective, more powerful than this. [...] When you go to the hairdresser and they're drying your scalp and you think that's got a bit too close, that's burning my scalp, but imagine what that's doing to your hair."

"I have the Dyson. You don't need the Dyson, but I use it on the diffuser setting and I also have a cool button that I can use. So I dry it upside down after my skincare is done, [...] or I'll just leave my cap on and let it air dry. [...] On those days when I'm in a bit of a rush, I'll go ahead and diffuse my hair out on cool, so then when I'm all done I flip it up, it's got some bounce, it's got some curl."

"The Dyson Supersonic has become my new best friend. It's very protective and kind to the hair. It uses light and air as opposed to heat and air, so it's just far better on the locks. [...] It's very quick and it's very simple. [...] This whole process probably takes two and a half minutes."

"This has been a total game changer for me and something that I really love and look forward to using in my own beauty routine. [...] One of my favorite things about this Dyson hair dryer are the attachments, which are so durable and so well made.

"The reason I recommend the Dyson hair dryer is because it is less harsh on your hair and it does less damage. It's not just about how your hair looks because you might be able to get your hair to look the same way with any styling tool, it's more about what does your hair feel like, what does it look like under a microscope, what's happening on the individual strand level, and is your hair remaining healthy."
