How to use the Supersonic?

Of course we all know how to blow dry our hair, but in order to achieve a professional result you should take a look at one or two tips so that the result not only looks great, but also the health of the hair is maintained. To keep your hair looking good and healthy despite the heat, here are a few tips on the subject:

How much does the Supersonic weigh?

The weight of a hair dryer makes a lot of difference in the result. The lighter the product, the easier it is to handle. You hold it for style after all a while far above the head and also places that are actually difficult to reach, must be blow-dried. The light weight of the Supersonic is of course helpful.

The Dyson Supersonic weighs only 630 grams

So it’s super easy to create great styles with this particular hairdryer, because a conventional hairdryer weighs an average of 800 grams and is therefore much harder to keep up, especially for more complicated styles that take more time.

What can the Supersonic do?

The Supersonic has a very special technology to draw in air and convert it into hot. With its targeted airflow and the precise temperature settings you can make, it promises fast and gentle blow-drying. In just a few seconds, even with long hair, you can blow dry your hair completely dry in the morning without creating frizz. Of course, it has also been known for a long time that heat is not good for the hair and should be avoided. But heat protection is often not enough either. With the Dyson Supersonic, however, you can be sure that you do not harm your hair with or without a heat protector, that it dries particularly gently and that the hair remains smooth and soft despite the heat.

How good is the Supersonic?

The Supersonic has been on the market since 2017 and has since become the winner of many different product tests. Not only its technology and design set it apart from other hair dryers, but also its performance. With the well-known Dyson motor, this hairdryer is a real luxury hair product that can really do something.

Supersonic vs Airwrap

In the Dyson family came a little later still a great alternative to the Dyson Supersonic. The Dyson Airwrap. With the Dyson Airwrap you can not only blow dry your hair but also try out great looks, thanks to the revolutionary suction function of the product, with which it is possible to curl your hair. The product comes with several attachments and the results are stunning. Big and small wavy curls even more hairdresser-like than blow-drying in shape makes it possible. Of course, there are not only these functions but also a blow dry function as a blow dry attachment is also included in the product. Many prefer the Airwrap, because it has more functions than the Supersonic, but who says that styling with the hairdryer is enough and the power behind it is enough and all the attachments are enough, the Supersonic is definitely the right product in the hands.
