Nine out of ten, I use the Styling Contolator. I do have curly hair, so I use the diffuser to help define my waves and keep them from frizzing.
The design is very simple. The Dyson Supersonic is a sleek, modern hair dryer. You might expect something heavy, clunky and difficult to use for longer than a few minutes. This dryer is lighter than most other hair dryers and easier to use around your head. The motor at its center is smaller and more efficient than traditional hair dryers. This makes it easier to use and much quieter. This might change the way you view your hair. Dyson designed this dryer in tribute to their bestselling customers, hence the iconic hole at its center.
About 1.2 pounds. Although there are many hair dryers that weigh less than this one, Dyson claims that this hair dryer was "engineered to balance". I can feel it. The weight of the hair dryer is on top, so it doesn't weigh down my wrist and puts pressure on my wrist. It's also not heavy at the front.
According to me, Dyson Supersonic has the best dryer for gray hair. Dyson Airwrap comes in second, but it's the Dyson Supersonic that I love.
Dyson isn’t lying when he says that hair feels less damaged after using Supersonic. Dyson claims that the Supersonic reduces hair damage by up to 80%. I am not a professional hairstylist so I cannot confirm these percentages. I know how my hair feels after using a Dyson straightener (not fried).
The Dyson Supersonic comes with three speeds (low-medium, high-speed) and four temperature settings. This includes a cold shot. The attachments include a diffuser, two nozzles for smoothing and one to concentrate air flow. This is great for styling bangs and blowouts. Since the Supersonic's release, Dyson has also released three other attachments: the Flyaway Attachment (for smoothing out flyaways), Wide Tooth Comb Attachment for curling curly hair and the Gentle Air Attachment (for controlling heat and diffusing it to protect fine hair types).
You have the option of a beautiful presentation case, a stand, or you can be as creative as me and just keep it in your bathroom drawer.
Since 2018, my Dyson Supersonic hair dryer has been with me. I love it but it isn't for everyone.
It's an investment but it has made my hair so much easier. The Dyson cuts down on drying time by 30 minutes. It is so time-savings that it is worth the investment. My journey to healthy hair began with avoiding heat damage. The Dyson ensures that my hair is protected from heat damage and dried quickly. It's no longer necessary to compromise my hair's health in order to not have wet hair all day. I love that.

Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer Review - Yes, it's worth $450
To say that I'm impressed is an understatement. Keep reading to learn more about the Dyson Supersonic.
Two independent editors tested the Dyson Supersonic Dryer with hair of very different lengths, textures and types.
Three speed settings
I wanted to give this a serious try so I took a timed measurement of my last hairstyle. I washed, towel dried and put my hair up for 6 minutes. Then I changed into my clothes and went to bed. The Dyson hair dryer dried my hair in just seven minutes.
My hair is usually washed twice a week. I sometimes let my hair air dry but I prefer to blow it out. My hair is thick, long and curly so I can dry it straight. Or I can diffuse it to create a fun wave.
It is 35% more efficient than other hair dryers, if I could put a number to it. I save time every time I blow dry my hair, but the real value is the reduction in extreme heat damage over the course of time.
It would be an understatement to say that I am impressed. Continue reading to see how amazing the Dyson Supersonic really is.
The Dyson Supersonic hair dryer has magnetic attachments that allow for quick and easy adjustments.
It's not necessary to heat your hands while holding the tool.
According to me, Dyson Supersonic has the best dryer for gray hair. Dyson Airwrap comes in second, but it's the Dyson Supersonic that I love.
It comes with three attachments, including a diffuser as well as two nozzles. The one for smoothing and the other to concentrate air flow. They are perfect for blowouts and styling bangs. Three additional Dyson attachments were also introduced since the Supersonic release: the Flyaway Attachment to smoothen down flyaways, the Wide Tooth Comb Attachment to stretch curly or coily hair, and the Gentle Air Attachment to control heat and diffuse it to protect delicate hair types.
I mean fast when I say fast. I have thick, curly, 28-inch hair. That's quite a bit of hair. Diffusing my hair took me five minutes. This is a huge time saver in colder weather when I have to dry my hair for longer periods of time. A blowout took me approximately 20 minutes. And I'm no expert. If I had any experience with blowouts, I am certain it would have taken less time.
Fastest drying+: Combining the small and powerful Dyson digital motor V9 with Air Multiplier technology, a high-velocity controlled air jet is produced for precision styling and drying.
Fast is what I mean when I say it. My hair is thick and curly, measuring 28 inches in length. It's quite a lot of hair. Diffusing my hair took me five minutes. This is a great trick for when it's colder outside and my hair doesn't need to air dry for more than half of the day. It took me 20 minutes to do a blowout. I'm not an expert. If I was a better blowout artist, it would have been much faster.
Those are many numbers that seem largely fabricated. Dyson vacuums have been worth the cost so why not apply the same to their hair tools? Because it seems subjective to be able to quantify, I was skeptical about the claim that the Supersonic increases shine 132%. I was intrigued to see if the claims regarding decreasing frizz or protecting from heat damage were correct.
When heat is applied to colored hair, it can lose its color (2). Dysons says that "The Gentle Air attachment is able to prevent this because it maintains a lower temperature."
What I love about the Dyson hair dryer over others is that it takes about half the time to dry my hair and doesn't leave behind that burnt hair smell.

I was blown away when I bought the Dyson. It's slim, lightweight, and easy to use 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.

Magnetic attachments
Although other hair dryers are capable of drying my hair fast, the Dyson is a class apart. My first time using it, I measured my drying time with my phone. The result? 1:40:11. My whole head was dried in less than 2 minutes. Although my hair is very fine, it takes me longer to make a cup if instant coffee. The Dyson made it worth the money. I'm often late but don't mind if I have enough to wash my hair right now. I always have at least two minutes.
The bottom line: The Dyson Supersonic blew away the competition when it came to drying speed, strongest airflow, and consumer satisfaction in our
extensive testing. If you're in the market for a new hair dryer — and have some savings built up — it's proven to be the best hair dryer you can buy.
For this experiment I washed my hair, toweled it up for exactly six minutes while I lotioned up and got dressed and then blew my hair out.
With the Dyson hair dryer, drying my hair took seven minutes.
Unlike some others, the Dyson Supersonic™ hair dryer measures air temperature over 40 times a second, and regulates the heat.
This prevents extreme heat damage, to help protect your hair's shine.
Dyson says it's less damaging to your hair. The dryer allegedly prevents extreme heat damage by measuring the temperature 20 times a second to
ensure that it is consistently at a healthy temperature for your hair.
