no pun intended, although theres definitely room for one there.
would be able to teach me to love my locks again.
How wrong I was.
For starters, the i.d.
Theres also a new smoothing brush and diffuser, if you so like.
So, is the Dyson Airwrap i.d.
worth the eye-watering $600 price tag?
Well…yes, but let me walk you through everything on offer in this comprehensive Dyson Airwrap i.d.

review: Price & availability
The Dyson Airwrap i.d.
I tested the straight + wavy, but theres also a curly + coily.
The straight + wavy comes in either patina/topaz (my colorway) or vinca blue/topaz.
The curly + coily comes in those two colors and also the gorgeous jasper plum color.
All colorways and hair pop in tools are the same price.
Dyson also stocks a range of alternative styling tools, like a diffuser and different styling brushes.
as much as I did.
However, if youre in the U.S., the Complete Long is available for$599 on Amazon U.S..
This $600 price makes the Dyson Airwrap i.d.
one of the most expensive hair styling tools on the market today.

No other products on the market look like Dysons.
Styling tools
Gone are the L and R curling wand barrels of yore.
Now Dyson has one curling barrel for each size.
The direction of airflow is changed by twisting the top from side to side.
comes with a conical barrel, ideal for tighter curls, and the original 40mm barrel for loose waves.
On top of curling barrels, the Airwrap i.d.
Ill discuss each of these attachments individually in the Performance section, with photos.
Finally, theres a flyaway tamer tool.
The Original Airwrap was 1.45 pounds, so Dysons going the right way with the new iterations.
Why can’t I just move my mirror permanently beside the outlets?
There are doors and radiators in the way.
Id like to see a longer cord on the next iteration of the Airwrap.
Storage
Heres where my main annoyance with the Airwraps design comes in.
Now, I dont think of myself as much of a nit-picker or stickler for the minutiae.
I do love the box, I just wish it matched the color of my Airwrap.

The i.d.s main talking point is that its a smart hair styler.

review: Performance
Ill discuss every styling attachment in this section with pictures of my results.
I used the Airwrap i.d.
Ill mention here that the Airwrap i.d.
is unnaturally quiet just 74dB on max fan.
TheHeist hair dryerI tested recently was 91dB on max, andthatwas considered quiet.
This picture is from the very first time I used the Airwrap i.d.
As you’re able to see, right off the bat I got great results.
To style my bangs, with the styler switched off, I laid my hair over the round brush.
Then I put it on medium fan/high heat and rolled it over and over until the hair was dry.
Firm smoothing brush
This is the brush I used to dry my hair mostly straight.
on her long, thick, naturally wavy hair.
I left her to her own devices to see how steep the learning curve was.
Using the styler was super easy as well thanks to the companion Apps i.d.
Curl system I described earlier.
I customized the times longer than the default as my hair was pretty wet.
The difficulties I experienced were truly a me problem, not an everyone problem.
Flyaway tamer
Completely honestly?
I never needed to use the flyaway tamer.
The round brush was so good as taming my frizz that I never reached for the tamer.
Then you slowly pull the roller down your hair to smooth your flyaways down.
In this photo, one side of my hair had been tamed and the other side Id left untamed.
I like the messier, lived-in look more, hence why I rarely gravitated towards the flyaway tamer.
Can you tell which side I used the flyaway attachment on?
(Hint: its not the right.)
