Since the design for the modern household hair dryer was patented way back in the 1920s, not much has changed in its aesthetic. Well, until 2016, and the Dyson Supersonic.
The brand reveals that it took 50 months and 103 engineers to get the device just right. The finishing touch took the reverse L-shape that defined the hair dryer and turned it on its head with a circular head and a completely different approach to the drying process.
Dyson’s futuristic-looking haircare tool is an attractive-looking design with its grey construction and pink accents, but don’t think it’s a case of fashion over function - that couldn’t be further from the case.
The James Dyson-helmed label designed a lightweight model that was the quietest around, while minimising heat damage at the same time. Following customer feedback that traditional hair dryers made arms ache, took too long to dry hair, and put fragile wet locks under thermal strain, the creation of the Supersonic looked to solve each of these very pressing concerns.
It began with a motor. The small, smart and powerful V9 was placed into the handle over the head to give more flexibility for drying angles. Air Multiplier technology followed, leading to a high-pressure air jet each time you switched it on - but always with hair health in mind.
When the Supersonic is switched on, glass bead thermistors measure the temperature 20 times a second to ensure hair isn’t under extreme heat. This intelligent heat control keeps it at the optimal temperature so that you’re not sacrificing shine, colour or strength to speed up styling on hair wash days.
But with all this innovation and high-powered tech, a costly price tag is part and parcel. You’ll be hard-pressed to find Dyson’s Supersonic hair dryer on sale - which is where we come in.
How to use Dyson Supersonic
Legendary hairstylist Larry King explains, “Both the original Supersonic and new Supersonic Nural hairdryers are perfect for maintaining optimum hair health and styling. They are powerful, easy to use and come with three different heat and speed settings. They’re the only hairdryers on the market that come with five different attachments, so work for all hair types. There is a gentle dryer for fine and sensitive hair, a styling concentrator to optimise airflow direction and an amazing diffuser. This diffuses the hair perfectly.
“The new Nural comes with a double diffuser so it waves and curls. It comes with a wide-tooth attachment so stretches out any coils for pre-straightening and loosening up the scalp. The flyaway attachment finishes styles. The Supersonic is the first and only hairdryer on the market that is good for all hair types and has a beginning, middle and end to styling with its attachments”.
Is the Dyson Supersonic worth it?
For King, it’s a resounding yes. “The Supersonic and the new Supersonic Nural are both without a doubt the most perfect and best hairdryers on the market for multiple reasons. Firstly, when the Supersonic came out, it was a revelation with intelligent heat control built within it so it never goes above 150 degrees. This way, you’re maintaining that optimum temperature for styling but it never gets irreversible heat damage and breakage to the hair, unlike other hairdryers that will go above 150 degrees. You’ve got the manipulative, easy styling whilst maintaining absolute hair health”.
