This was something I wanted to really quantify so I recorded my last blowout.
Dyson Supersonic claims to be the best hair dryer on the market, and it is. Dyson describes the Supersonic's purpose as "engineered for hair protection from extreme heat damage." It is fast drying and controlled styling that can help increase smoothness and shine by up 75% and up to 132%, and reduce frizz and flyaways up to 61%. *"
Different hair types are possible
This is the hair dryer for the future. Dyson Supersonic promises to improve smoothness, shine, and reduce frizz. It also cuts down drying time and prevents breakage that can be associated with blow drying. Dyson's Air Multiplier technology is used in the V9 motor. This produces a lot of air at a controlled speed to dry hair faster. The Dyson dryer measures heat output 40 times per second to control the temperature and prevent damage. The dryer does less damage, which makes your hair shiner and smoother over time. Don't worry if your hair is frizzy. The dryer uses negative electrons to reduce static and maintain a smooth look all day.
It's slim, lightweight, and easy to navigate, compared to other hair dryers. The Dyson is my favorite hair dryer. The Dyson's heat controls are among the best I have ever seen. I don't do too much damage to my hair even when I use a higher heat setting. The Dyson is a part of my routine that I enjoy, rather than fear and avoid.

My straight, fine hair looks almost lifeless. My hair is flat against my head and looks even thinner than it really is. My hair hasn't been bleached in over a year. My hair is almost entirely natural, with a touch of highlighting at the ends. My hair is very oily without any color. I can last just one day between washes and my hair is still looking bad the next day. I am washing my hair more than ever before and doing all I can to keep my ends healthy and moisturized.
You can choose a pretty presentation case or stand or, like me, keep it loosely in a drawer in the bathroom.

Dyson says that the Dyson Supersonic is engineered for hair protection from extreme heat damage. With fast drying and controlled styling, Dyson claims that it can increase smoothness up to 75%, shine up to 132%, and reduce flyaways and frizz up to 61%. All of this is why I am here.
In the recent past, a hair dryer has become a necessity rather than a desire. It could be that hair dryers can cause dry, rough hair and hair to lose their color (1). It could be that gray hair can become brassy or yellowish from heat exposure (2). Perhaps it was because my hair dryers were constantly clogging up.
It's not very quiet but I believe it's probably a little quieter than many. Sources cite it as 75 decibels. Others say 79.
The Dyson Supersonic hairdryer comes with magnetic attachments so that you can quickly and easily adjust.
I love magnetic attachments. In the past I have lost my hairdryer and broken the diffuser screw.

Dyson direct sales have the advantage of being able to return any defective items quickly and with a better warranty. You'll also be considered a loyalty member, which means that you will be eligible for future Dyson discount and deal offers.
It was the volume it added to my hair that made this hair dryer so worth it. I have very fine, straight hair. For my hair type, Dyson Supersonic creates big volume. The dryer comes with a round brush, which is great for curtain bangs. One of the concentrators nozzles style my bangs. I dry my hair naturally, without using any attachments. My hair always looks like it's just come off a set.
Although it is not silent, I believe it to be a lot quieter than others. It is quoted by some sources at 75 decibels, while others say 79. If you are interested in getting technical,
It would be an understatement to say that I am impressed. Continue reading to see how amazing the Dyson Supersonic really is.

Whatever the reason might be, I know I was ready and willing to put Dyson Supersonic hair dryer to the test.
My medium-length bob just touches my shoulders. And I have curtain bangs which are in desperate need for a trim. My curtain bangs have been with me for two years. However, curtain bangs take a lot of styling so I have to ensure they remain in place every day.
Although I originally purchased the Dyson Supersonic hairdryer to test it on three types of hair, I ended up using it only on my own hair and that of a close friend. While $400 may seem like a high price for a hairdryer, the Dyson was able to diffuse my 28 inch long curly hair in five minutes. It also caused less damage than traditional dryers.
In recent times, having a great hair dryer was a necessity instead of a wish.
I also don't get that burnt hair smell.

However, I have not seen any knockoffs. A workaround is to let your hair air dry for most of the time and then use a hair dryer for the final few minutes. This will give your hair a smooth, shiny look without any heat exposure.
Constructed to evenly distribute air around curls. They are longer and can be used to control hairstyles.
Magnetic attachments are a great option. I've had to drop my hairdryer several times and break the diffuser part. Sometimes, the threaded part of an attachment can become loose and not attach. I recall specifically ducttaping one of the attachments to my old dryer. That didn't work. With the Dyson magnet attachments, these things won't be possible. Attachments for all of life!
I have owned the dryer for 4 years. I have never cleaned its filter. Oops. Dyson recommends that you clean it once a months by wiping down the inner filter and outer cage with a soft cloth.

You might be asking yourself if Dyson's hair dryer is worth the investment. That's a completely different question.
After extensive testing, two different types of hair were used to give a verdict on the Dyson Supersonic Dryer.
Intelligent heat control
Magnetic attachments are also very appealing to me. I have dropped my hairdryer, cracked the diffuser screw and been left without a diffuser attachment. Sometimes the attachment's screw-in is no longer attached because it becomes threadbare. I can recall duct taped one of my attachments onto my old hair dryer. It didn't work. These things will not happen with Dyson magnetic attachments. Attachments for your whole life, y'all.
