Ever since Dyson launched the original Supersonic hair dryer in 2016, our attention has turned to the promise of sleek strands, bouncy blowouts and more.
In 2018, the brand introduced the Airwrap, sending us further into a frenzy of high-tech hair tools. Then came the Corrale in 2020. The past year has seen the addition of the wet-to-straight technology that powers the Airstrait, the unveiling of the Supersonic Nural and its scalp-care settings and a range of styling products, including a pre-style cream and post-style serum. And now, we also have the Airwrap i.d. to consider.

Dyson Airstrait
If you want to take your hair from wet to straight with no heat damage, the Airstrait is the tool for you. Dyson’s newest recruit for sleek styling uses air, rather than hot plates to dry and straighten the hair. Not only is this better for the health of your hair, the brand claims it takes 25% less time than standard hair dryer/hair straightener styling routines. That means more sleep ins and less rushing out the door in a stress.

Dyson Airwrap i.d. Multi-styler And Dryer
The Airwrap has become synonymous with well-styled hair. And the Airwrap ID takes things to another level. At face value, this tool holds the same power as the original multistyler.

Best For: Bouncy Blowouts
Dyson Supersonic Nural
Smart is a word that instantly springs to mind when you think about Dyson hair tools. The Supersonic Nural hair dryer takes that and runs with it. This device looks pretty similar to the classic Supersonic. But the inner workings are where things start to differ. Engineered heat settings allow the tool to auto-adapt while you’re styling, adjusting the temperature depending on how close you are to the hair in order to help protect your scalp health. There’s also a new wave and curl diffuser attachment that homes in on styling for wavy and curly hair types.
Key features:
- Five styling attachments
- Auto-adapt heat settings for scalp health
- Pause detect
- Attachment learning for heat settings
Best For: Curly And Coiled Hair
Dyson Supersonic R Hair Dryer
The Dyson Nural has taken the tech brands hair health mission to the next level, utilising innovations which prioritise scalp health too. The heat control settings measure the distance between the hair dryer and the scalp at all times, adjusting when necessary to ensure the temperature never exceeds a safe 80 degrees Celsius. The hair dryer also features Dyson’s latest curl diffusing attachment — a two-in-one curl diffuser and wave diffusing bowl that uses dual-direction airflow to perfect and set your curls.
The answer to this question comes down to the look you want to achieve. If you’re after bouncy curls or brushed-out waves that don’t skimp on volume, the answer is probably yes. The Airwrap has six attachments, which makes drying, curling, shaping and smoothing your hair possible with the one tool.
The heat technology used by Dyson is designed to protect hair, rather than putting it under additional stress during styling. Dyson’s hair dryers are also designed to be lightweight and make it easier to manoeuvre during use. They also come with additional attachments to help with styling your hair, not just drying it.
