You need to know that the Dyson AirWrap is on sale for almost 20% off. It is really hard to find the AirWrap at a discount, period, let alone close to 20% off, and it is the ultimate “regrettably worth it” item in my opinion. Worth every penny at full price and therefore a bargain with any discount attached to it. I had wanted one for years but had major sticker shock — I felt some primal sense of justice in believing that a blow dryer should be under $200. But this one is different. This one will give you a salon-quality blow-out at home every day of the week, and will absolutely change the way you feel about your hair. I have not stopped singing its praises since I received, and am evangelical about it to anyone who will listen. My stick-straight, determined-to-be-boring hair actually holds a bend at the end — for days. I am now convinced that any woman with good hair owns one.
A few practical tips: 1) hair needs to be 90% dry before using the AirWrap attachment. I use the blow dryer attachment to rough dry first and then use the AirWrap to finish the ends. I watched many YouTube tutorials about using the AirWrap and the best advice someone gave: “hair needs to feel fluffy with a tiny bit of dampness to it, but cannot clump together at all.” This is accurate. 2) This is a powerful tool. It is quiet, but powerful. I strongly believe you need a heat protectant if you are using regularly — one of my girlfriends who has used hers religiously for years now insists you need to protect your hair or the ends dry out. I love this leave-in spray and then top with a few spritzes of this heat-activated “dream coat” product, which really gives you a glossy, polished finish. 3) I think “sealing” the curl in with the cold setting really prolongs the look.
