The Dyson Airwrap promises multifunctional hair styling but faces questions over its high price and value for existing hair tools.
Dyson Airwrap's features and purpose
The Dyson Airwrap is a hair styling device that claims to offer multiple functions, including creating smooth hair, well-defined curls, and increased volume in one tool.High price raises concerns about value
The device's cost of nearly 500 euros has led to questions about its value, especially for people who already own a hair dryer, brush, and curling iron.Technology behind the device
The Airwrap uses the Coanda effect, which allows air to wrap around rollers and curl hair without using heated plates to clamp the strands together.Temperature control and safety
The device measures air temperature up to 40 times per second, keeping it below 150 °C to reduce the risk of heat damage to hair.Attachments for different hairstyles
The Airwrap comes with various attachments to achieve different styles, such as tight or loose curls, smooth blow-dry, and more voluminous hair.User feedback on performance
According to journalist Brooke Shunatona in Cosmopolitan, the 1.2-inch roller created longer-lasting curls, while the 1.6-inch roller was better for achieving more voluminous hair when blow-drying.Additional benefits of the device
The smoothing brushes and drying attachment are said to provide a smooth and voluminous blow-dry while helping to reduce frizz.
