Dyson Super Sonic Hair Dryer

Jordan2 — Thu, 27 Jun 2019 22:11:26 GMT

I saw this is going to be a TSV, it sells for $399 with free shipping. Is this a new model, also does anyone think it is worth the cost? I am really on the fence, $399 is pretty steep for a hair dryer (I don't think I have ever paid more than $100 for a dryer). I'm not good with my hair, I would hate to waste that much money on something I won't use.

While I don't own one, my hairdresser has one she uses on her clients. It is the original Dyson.

She swears by it for only 1 reason and that is it cuts the drying time down by at least 1/2 so she can get clients with coarse, unruly, hard to dry hair out the door quicker. This makes her day more productive by getting clients in and out on time.

She uses it on my long, fine hair and I have a lot. I notice faster drying time but other that that, it's a meh for me.

@SnowpuppyThat's pretty much what my stylist told me when the T3 came on the market years ago. I never bought one because I don't have long, heavy hair that takes a long time to dry. I understand completely why someone who is earning their living styling hair would want to save off minutes. They can pick up extra clients with the time saved and time is money in their business.

My DD is a hairstylist. One of her coworkers has this dryer and loves it. However, she admitted the only reason she has it is because it was a gift and that she wouldn’t spend that kind of money herself.

I recently purchased Mario Cartier’s turbo dryer from hsn. It’s powerful. When I purchased, it included his shampoo and conditioner bundled with the dryer and all for $75.

I have the Dyson from a couple years ago and yes, it was $399. My hair is now short and curly so I let it air dry, when it was straight and long, I used the drier and it did dry faster. No magic involved, save your money...

I purchased Martino’s dryer too for $75 with the full size shampoo and conditioner. I sent it back. It made my hair a tangled mess and was just too heavy. It’s very similar to the Power Cloud he sold when he was with Amika. A powerful dryer but too heavy for me.

I purchased the Dyson when it first came out and returned it. It cut down drying time but not enough to justify cost. I bought the Dyson Airwrap for $550 and it’s worth every penny. Curls don’t stay in long but I get smooth, beach waves. If I want straight hair, I use the brush attachment and I don’t need to finish with a flat iron. I do use my Calista Faux Blo just to give volume but it’s a 20 second job. My Faux Blo heats up within 10 seconds and I do three sections - side, side, back. I haven’t used my straight iron or Perfecter since buying my Airwrap. I have long, color treated hair that is usually frizzy after drying. Not anymore! I’ve had my Airwrap just about 6 weeks and my hair looks and feels healthier. I believe there is truth about the Dyson technology and how it doesn’t overheat hair causing damage.

You would definitely be wasting your money. Dyson products are hugely overrated

From what I heard women with thick hair love it. I recently purchased a T3 but a smaller model. However, I noticed it dries my hair faster and doesn't dry it out like the hair dryer I was using so it was worth the $119 I paid for it. It has 2 heat settings and the cool blast. Love it. My hair is normal weight.

Two stylists I work with like theirs As others have replied cuts way down on time and more comfortable to use hours on end but most comment was how much quieter which allows for easier chit chat. Definitely better hair care.

For me, personally, I can’t justify the price and hope it will get lower. Also, I would hate to make this investment and have a newer version show up.

Hope this helps.

I have a Dyson hairdryer. I bought it as last summer’s TSV and ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ it! I’m a curly girl & the diffuser is the best. I only use the low heat, low speed & I am dry in no time!

I paid $399 as well. It came with some good products and a full size one that I have continued to buy. I don' thave thick hair, but love this dryer. I definitely do not have the frizz I used to. I love the attachments. I've spent a lot of money over the years on other dryers that were sub par and/or stopped working, like the T3. Everyone spends their money on different things. For me, this was a great purchase. I would not have gotten it if it wasn't on easy pay.

Own mine for about 2 years and I love it. It cuts down my drying time on my longer thick straight hair. When I as my fuzzy dogs, it cuts down their drying time too LOL

Preordered Fuchsia: T3 dryer, served me for 5yrs. I have for the last couple years wanted Dyson for several reasons...

Lightweight, compact, and attachments. Thanks, Ladies for sharing your experiences and helpful comments.

The demonstrations look amazing but I just can't spend that kind of money on a hair dryer. My hair is very coarse, thick, wavy and curly so it probably would cut down on drying my hair. Recently I bought a GHD at Ulta with points that I accumulated. It sold for $199 but I also had a 20% coupon so I ended up paying $49. So far I love the performance of this dryer. I have asked my stylist what she thinks of the Dyson. She thinks they are just too much money for most people to purchase.

Sorry but is a big NO for me-- $400 for a hairdryer is way out of my comfort zone; it would have to feed the cat, do the dishes and dust my house too---my hair is so short and fine that it takes me under 5 minutes to dry it with a dryer and not much longer if I air dry.

There is no way I would spend that much on a hair dryer. Maybe if I was super rich with tons of money to waste. I got very nice dryer recently for around $25.

For me and my pocketbook it's a big NO, but for those who have splurged and it was worth it to you, I am happy for you. As one poster said, we spend our money differently and have different priorities.

I will say, that I tuned in last night around 11:45pm to see what the TSV might be - Shawn was giving the sales pitch of a lifetime. I think I actually saw her twitch!

To me, hot air is hot air. None of it is really good for your hair. BUT, if you really want one you can use a 20% off coupon for it at Bed bath & beyond.. That’s about $80 off!

Most of us don't have $400 to spend on a hair dryer. A professional buying one makes sense if it cuts down on drying time.
