The Dyson Airstrait Straightener is a game-changer in your hair-styling routine. As a long-awaited addition to Dyson’s innovative lineup, this straightener lives up to the brand’s reputation for excellence.
Dyson just launched the Airstrait Straightener and we’ve already seen it everywhere on social media. For some time now, Dyson has gained significant visibility and making headlines thanks to the -until now- most popular product of the brand: The Airwrap Styler with thousands of devoted followers across the globe.
After six years in the making, the Airstrait dries and straightens hair in one fell swoop using hot air rather than plates – minimising damage in the process. It was created to solve two challenges detailed as the most pressing by customers: lack of time and straightening prowess. Isn’t fabulous?

How it works?
Unlike your go-to straightener, this does not use hot plates but rather air accelerated through the arms of the device in place of the plates that power your flat iron. From there, the air is projected at a 45-degree angle; directed down the hair shaft in order to straighten while drying.
This device can be used directly on wet hair, while still protecting the fragile strands once wet. There are two modes; wet-to-dry and dry to dry as well as a range of temperatures that never exceed 150oC, in order to prevent hair damage. The aim of this hair tool is to dry and style your locks – no matter your hair type – and do so in a far quicker time than it would take than the old hair dryer and iron combo. It follows suit in the collection with its use of the V9 motor, but straightens faster and sleeker. Furthermore, the user experience is enhanced by the ergonomic design of the Airstrait Straightener. The lightweight construction and comfortable grip make it easy to maneuver and style with precision. The cord length is ample, providing freedom of movement during use.

“Delivering the ease-of-use that people love about straighteners but with high-velocity air blades, saves time, maintains hair strength, and achieves an everyday natural straight style” says founder and chief engineer James Dyson in a press release.

Is worth the HYPE?
In order to test the Airstrait wet-to-dry feature, I tried it on freshly washed hair and I have to say that dries the hair quicker than I expected, I was able to dry and style my hair in just one pass on each strand but this may depend on how thick your hair is. The best about the Dyson airstrait is that does not pull your hair and it’s really easy to handle.

The results?
Shiny, soft and, silky hair! I can assure you that it will give you the best blow-out of your life without all the hair pulling and the eternal fight with the brush and hair dryer. And let me tell you that besides the pin-straight hair look, you can achieve this desired Bombshell hairstyle, thanks to the curve-shaped endings of the device. So my verdict: ABSOLUTELY WORTH THE HYPE

Currently the Airstrait is only available in North America priced at $499.
