What the gurus are saying

Gurus overwhelmingly praise the Dyson for fast drying, minimal heat damage, reduced frizz, and noticeably softer, shinier hair, especially for those who blow-dry regularly. The intelligent heat control and powerful airflow are cited as key strengths. The main trade-offs are the high price point and a learning curve for styling technique; one reviewer noted it's not a miracle product for those who never style their hair, and another experienced occasional tangling. The consensus is it delivers on its promises for regular users willing to invest.

"The Dyson one, it tends to make my hair stick together and tangle more for some reason. I really do think that this one, my hair loves it more for some reason."

"If you're looking for a hair dryer to dry your hair quickly without extreme heat to minimize damage at the same time reduce frizz, this is the one. It smooths, adds shine, and really results in healthier looking hair. I blow dry my hair every night before I sleep and even though I do it regularly, I definitely feel like my hair has been the healthiest it's ever been. Dyson is one that we do know delivers those results, and it's quiet and it's lightweight and super nice for your hair if you do blow dry your hair regularly. It has this intelligent heat control that basically measures the air temperature 20 times per second to really help avoid those extreme heat damage that can do on hair."

"I think probably like the goat of hair dryers would have to be the Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer. This is a really good deal for the hair dryer currently at $399, 27% off for Black Friday, and it appears to be a lower price than it's been on sale for, not even on Prime Day."

"This is a Dyson like a I think it's called I know. It's beautiful, isn't it? Just so attractive. Um, my husband loves it. But it does, what it does is it helps for the hyaluronic acid to not um evaporate."

"On paper, it sounds right because the low heat and more air flow makes sense scientifically. But I have to say, if you're styling your hair on a regular basis, like I used to do with heating irons, then Dyson is definitely better. It's not no heat, it's low heat. Damage definitely reduces. But if you've never styled your hair in your life and you think buying Dyson will make you start, that's never going to happen because it's tedious. It's not as easy as they claim it to be. With a regular iron, doing your hair is much faster and quicker in terms of time consumption. Yes, definitely the glossy look I love it, but it takes a bit of training to use. The curve is not so easy to learn which side to roll it on."

"My favorite hair dryer is the Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer. I know it can be pricey and honestly I do have the Dyson Air Wrap 2 but I prefer the hair dryer and hair dryer is cheaper than the Air Wrap. The hair dries really fast while minimizing the hair damage with the Dyson hair dryer. It helps reduce the frizz. It protects against overheating. It's great for any hair type especially those who are prone to frizz."

"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 know it's expensive but it has saved me so much time."
Approved
"I have tried damn near every single hair dryer out there and my hair takes a really long time to dry, like if I get out of the shower and just leave my hair to air dry it'll take like six hours. The Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer is by far the best hair dryer I've ever used. It is absolutely incredible and will last forever. Every time I use another hair dryer my hair feels very brittle, dry, and unhealthy, but every time I use the Dyson, my hair feels really amazing and soft and gorgeous. It's one of my favorite products ever."

"It's a Dyson, I've never used that before. I actually think I kind of like it."

"the Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer is 23% off so 329 bucks which might be a good sale. I think typically you get them at 20% off, which is typically the best."

"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. Even though your hair is dead, it does burn and is damaged by heat. Never had that feeling with this ever. Maximum wind minimum heat to dry your hair effectively, and it smooths as well. I just absolutely love this product. Dyson have mastered the cyclone technology of wind because obviously they do all the vacuum cleaners as well. It is expensive, but to me it is unique for hair gadgets on the market."

"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."

"I use the Dyson hair dryer. It has a cool button with a very little bit of warmth with mostly cool, and I diffuse my hair upside down to give it lots of body. It doesn't take that long because I've given it quite a bit of time to dry on top of my head."

"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."
Approved
"I blow my hair out with my Dyson and today I'm trying a new hair curling device straightener from launch it blows cool air out of the back side and has heated plates so it's supposed to keep your waves and curls in longer."
