Have been using the dryer everyday for the past 2 Months and I think it dries my hair faster than my old panasonic and quieter than my old Elchim. I don’t think it’s smoothing or better as far as how smooth my hair looks but the dryer itself is sleek. One annoying thing is the buzzing sound while plugged in - I worry something might happen like it will short an outlet or it will crap out on me. Not sure this is normal.
Who hasn’t been wanting to own it? I literally ran into a woman, who like myself, had been wanting this amazing hairdryer for three years. Each of us left with our Dyson and I’m certain she’s as happy with hers as I am with my Dyson hairdryer. I positively adore it and now, my two daughters are saving for their own.
I found that this dryer did not get hot enough for my hair type. I have naturally curly super moisturized curls that I straighten twice a week. This dryer left my hair very frizzy and straw like. I used it twice and returned it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Carrie, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're sorry to hear that in your use, you found that the Dyson Supersonic™ hair dryer wasn't getting hot enough to dry or style your hair to your liking. The Supersonic offers intelligent heat control, allowing you to dry your hair without the damage of high heat. The dryer offers 4 heat settings, allowing you to adjust the temperature between 82°F in constant cold mode, and up to 212°F, for fast drying and styling.
While everyone is different, we certainly wouldn't expect hair to become fried or frizzy as a result of using Dyson Supersonic. The Dyson Supersonic hair dryer will feature intelligent heat control, which means it will monitor and control the temperature at all times. This helps prevent extreme heat damage and protects hair's natural shine. It also will feature negative ions to help prevent hair from becoming frizzy. One quick tip I would recommend, as outlined in our Dyson Supersonic support videos, will be using the dryer directly against your hair with a low speed/heat setting (to start with) using either your hand, a paddle brush or roll brush to control the movement of your hair. When the dryer is held away from your head the dryer reads the temperature of the room and not your hair, this also causes your hair to blow all around which can lead to damage and tangles. Please also note that each heat and airflow setting is designed to provide varying outcomes depending on the style you have in mind for any particular drying session.
While I understand you've since returned your purchase, we'd value the opportunity to learn more regarding your experience, as we're dedicated to customer satisfaction. Please consider emailing us directly at askdysonUS@dyson.com. We look forward to hearing from you.
I absolutely love this hairdryer. I had debated spending that much for a hairdryer but I am so glad I did. My thick, frizzy, wavy hair dries quickly and is so much smoother. The best thing is that my hair actually stays styled. I don’t understand how it works but I am a fan. I loved mine so much I bought one for my daughter. She agrees with my feelings. Well worth the money!
