Dyson Airwrap ($600)
The Dyson Airwrap is the original multifunctional styler to make waves in the beauty space. "Owning the Dyson Airwrap has been a complete game changer when it comes to my hair routine," one of our editors writes. "It's replaced my blow dryer, my round brush, my straightener, two different curling-iron sizes, and my blow-dry brush. Whenever I'm packing for a trip, I don't need to bring tons of different hair tools with me — all I need is my Airwrap and my travel case." Read our complete review of the Dyson Airwrap Styler.
What we love:
- We love how many different looks you can create with the Dyson Airwrap. Just look at the accompanying photo to see the various ways our staff writer used her device, even when her hair was different lengths.
Who it's best for:
- The Dyson Airwrap is best for those who style their hair frequently, especially if you use it to replace your super-hot hair straightener and curling iron. Why? Well, unlike other devices, this one's technology uses heat and air (not just heat) and constantly regulates so that it never goes over 302°F. Simply put, it's a less-damaging alternative for your strands.
Who should avoid it:
- If you want to start styling your hair to perfection straight away, the Dyson might not be your perfect match. There's definitely a learning curve, as told by our editor. "I won't lie: it definitely took some getting used to, and I had to watch tons of different tutorial videos before I finally figured out what I was doing," she wrote. "Now that I've gotten it down, I've been using my Dyson at least two times a week without fail."
