Shark FlexFusion Air & Ceramic System with Air Straightener ($400)
Shark's new FlexFusion Straight, Air & Ceramic System is an upgraded version of the bestselling FlexStyle System that replaces your hair dryer, blow-dryer brush, hot comb, curling iron, and even a straightener. It comes with two unique attachments: the Wet-or-Dry Air Straightener and the Wet-or-Dry Fusion Brush. The Wet-or-Dry Air Straightener is a hair straightening attachment that uses both ceramic plates and high velocity concentrated air to deliver smooth, shiny pin-straight hair in just a few passes. The Wet-or-Dry Fusion Brush combines the benefits of a blow-dry brush with a hot comb — it's the attachment version of the SmoothStyle Heated Comb Blow-Dryer Brush above.
It also promises no heat damage styling in wet-to-dry mode never exceeding 230°F or approaching heat damaging temperatures of 302°F. If you haven't already invested in a multi-tool, this is worth the splurge, especially if you want a tool that combines a flat iron with a blowout brush and a curling iron. Read our editor's in-depth review of the Shark FlexFusion Straight, Air & Ceramic System for her thoughts on why it's worth it.
Attachments: A Wet-or-Dry Air Straightener, a Wet-or-Dry Fusion Brush, two 1.25" auto-wrap curlers, and a styling concentrator.
Editor Quote: "The FlexFusion Straight includes all the FlexStyle benefits, such as the rotating wand and attachments, but has more versatility. For starters, the FlexFusion has a ScalpShield mode that helps protect your scalp from excessive heat exposure and damage. . . the Wet-or-Dry Air Straightener uses concentrated airflow to straighten your hair. It also has a ceramic flat iron, so you get both benefits. Within a few passes, my damp, wavy hair becomes pin-straight with zero frizz and a high-shine finish. This is much more efficient (with less heat damage) than blow drying and using a straightener afterward. I can also use this like a traditional flat iron and get close to my roots to touch up my baby hairs, give my curtain bangs shape, and create face-framing waves." — AR
