I was skeptical at first with the cost, but I have to be honest, it's worth it. My wife and I are blown away by it (forgive the pun). It's worth it, My hair feels healthy and not dried out and brittle on the ends. This is definitely one of my better purchases.
I have put off buying this hairdryer because let’s be honest, the price tag is steep. However, after using my sister’s on a weekend trip I was sold. My hair honestly looks like I have just had a blowout at the salon! My hair looks and feels so healthy!
I bought this a few weeks ago and I'm just not happy with the blow dryer. My less expensive dryer does a far better job. Maybe it's my hair, but I am not happy at all with this blow dryer. It makes my hair, dry, frizzy and FLAT.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from DysonBy Dyson Customer Support, October 1, 2020
Hello there, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're sorry to hear that you've found that in your use, the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer is leaving the texture of your hair dry and frizzy. The technology behind Dyson Supersonic is quite revolutionary and it is not like anything you might be used to. It can take some time to get used to the different settings, features and attachments Dyson supersonic provides during your drying session, not to mention your normal way or habit of drying your hair with traditional hair dryers.
While everyone is different, we certainly wouldn't expect hair to become dry or frizzy as a result of using Dyson Supersonic. The 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.
We'd value the opportunity to go over your machine with you to help ensure you're getting the best from your Dyson Supersonic™ hair dryer. Please consider emailing us directly at askdysonUS@dyson.com. We look forward to hearing from you.
Worth the money and the hype. My curly and frizzy hair is dry in 12 min and is so smooth. I have been saving up for this dryer for 2 years, it's worth every penny!
There are so many good things about this dryer! I've had nothing but good hair days since using it. It is lightweight and the tiny amount of heaviness is at the bottom of the handle so the machine is not top heavy which makes blow drying tiring. Also, you can get the small, powerful head close to your scalp for volume since the intake mesh is at the bottom of the handle, not the opposite side of the head like most dryers. Between the three air flow strengths and the three heat settings, you can accomplish just about any style. And accomplish it quickly. I actually look forward to styling my hair now. I also received a free attachment with my purchase and that adds to my styling tools. I have used the narrow air flow attachment to dry specific areas and used the diffuser to create volume (although I don't have curly hair it still lifts my locks and allows the air to hit the underside.) I love this hair dryer!
