[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is hands down the best hairdryer I’ve ever used!! It’s amazing. It takes me less than 30 minutes to dry and curl my hair! I love all the attachments for the hairdryer. It is better than the Dyson hairdryer. Don’t waste your money on the Dyson, buy the shark!
I bought this a few months ago and wanted to really learn how to use it before writing a review. First off I’ll start by saying I do really like it overall and don’t regret buying it. However, I feel that it doesn’t work quite like I was expecting or dry as fast as advertised. I’ll start with the positives. The size is really nice and it fits in my hand well and easy to hold. I read some complaints about it being loud but I don’t think it’s as loud as a lot of standard hair dryers. The attachments are easy to switch out and I have come to use the round brush attachment almost daily, even just to smooth out and freshen up my style between washes. The curling wands are interesting and took a while to figure out. I ended up finding some YouTube videos that were helpful. I have medium-thick, long hair with somewhat of a natural wave. The “curl” I get is more of a very loose wave. If you use the left and right side wands respectively and curl it the way Shark instructs, it mostly curls the ends and creates a hot roller look. I use the opposite wand per side and flip it upside down so I can wrap the hair around the barrel away from my face and leave the ends loose to get more a wave. It adds nice volume as it creates the waves. Now for the cons. The drying time is not any faster than my old standard dryer and in fact, may actually take longer. Especially if I use the round brush tool and dry it completely. Also, there’s no way you can actually dry your hair without heat. It would take hours for anyone with a reasonable amount of hair so that was a disappointment. And the curling wands don’t work at all without heat. In retrospect this make sense but since Shark claims you can dry and style without heat, I was hopeful.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my favorite styling tool yet! I will say it is a bit heavier than typical tools, but the amount of saving this does to my hair is incredible. The airflow is so much healthier than direct heat and I love all of the attachments. The end of the tool even adjusts to precisely blow out sections of hair. The power and heat have three adjustments and there is also a left and right curling attachment. Once you get used to holding it and using it, it will be your new favorite.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So not only is it a blow dryer, it’s a curler, straightener, and provides a beautiful blowout!! I mostly use the curling attachment. It gives absolutely stunning curls that make you feel like you just got out of the salon. When I received this, I was ecstatic to try it out! I hear people saying that the curls don’t last. It’s true, the curls don’t last as long as a traditional curling iron but the VOLUME lasts! So, you can touch up your curls with your regular curling iron the next day. I recommend using a heat protectant with hold and hairspray each section after curling! The curls should last at least til the end of the day!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I couldn’t be happier with the shark flexstyle. I have long thick hair and It has cut my hair drying time in half. It does take a little getting use to when curling the hair. But after a few try’s it’s perfection! My hair has felt healthier than ever from not using hot irons on it. Definitely worth it.
I have been using since January 2023 and I love, but it is missing 1 attachment. I would love to have an attachment similar to that of the Dyson Airwrap - Round volumizing brush attachment. It is a smaller round brush that would be beneficial for us shorter hair women! Is this in the works for the future?
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this product as a substitute for another popular brand hairstyler and I have to say I’m so impressed!!! I love all the different options for curling, straightening and blowouts. My hair lasted all night and looks so effortless. They even have a cooling feature to hold your hairstyle and lock it in!! So recommend this product!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] OMG! If you’re looking for the perfect hair dryer, this is it. It has different stylers that can be changed depending on the style you’re looking for. I absolutely love this product starting with its design down to the funcitional of it. Highly highly recommend :)
