Dyson Supersonic Nural™ hair dryer: Scalp protect modeTIPS - HAIRCARE

Scalp protect modeThe Dyson Supersonic Nural™ hair dryer’s Scalp protect mode automatically adjusts the heat settings to make sure that the temperature at the scalp remains at a consistent 55°C/131°F. This helps maintain scalp moisture levels, prevent over drying and allows for comfortable, gentle drying. The Time of Fight sensor tracks nine million data points every second, to ensure temperature is adjusted promptly and thermal comfort is maintained. FAQs Why is the target temperature 55°C / 131°F in Scalp protect mode?55°C/131°F is an optimum temperature for balancing thermal comfort with a fast dry time. The air temperature is adjusted to ensure 55°C/131°F is maintained at the scalp as the distance between the dryer and the hair changes. Can I use Scalp protect mode if I have thick hair?Yes, you can! Although if you have very thick hair, you might want to use Scalp protect mode to dry your roots gently and then turn it off to dry the mid lengths and ends of your hair at a higher hea

Dyson Supersonic Nural™ hair dryer: Pause detectTIPS - HAIRCARE

Pause detectThe Dyson Supersonic Nural™ hair dryer’s motion sensing accelerometer detects when you’ve paused styling and put it down. It switches off the heater and reduces airflow to ultra-low flow to reduce unnecessary noise without you having to turn off the machine. This can be helpful when you pause styling to section your hair with clips.To make sure Pause detect only activates when the machine is put down – and not for every momentary pause while styling – we deliberately programmed in a fractional delay of 240ms. To be sure Pause detect has activated, wait for the motor sound to ramp down before lifting your hand off the hair dryer. FAQs How do I activate Pause detect?The Dyson Supersonic Nural™ hair dryer’s Pause detect is automatic, and always on. It uses a motion sensing accelerometer to know when the hair dryer stops moving – turning off heat and reducing airflow. Why does Pause detect work on some attachments, but not others?Styling using the Dyson Supersonic Nural™ hair d

Hear me out on the Dyson Air WrapSPOTLIGHTED POST

It’s never easy justifying the price you pay for top quality tools. But it’s always easy selling something that you are truly confident in. It is on display every day and I make a big deal showing everyone it is the only styling tool at my work station. And I’m my trolly they will see my scissors and the attachment parts to the air wrap.As a stylist if I know that my client is using this in their spare time . I already know that they are doing their job in looking after their hair themselves . Ensuring they’re using recommended products too. It leaves me with less roadblocks when it comes to their service which a lot of the time my biggest time waster is working carefully around damaged and fragile hair. I use it for my weekly blow wave concessions and some of my clients even have one of their own. Because of this Almost 80% of my clientele use the air wrap once a week with me or at home. This has become their only styling source for the week.My clientele are my walking advertisement.

Supersonic hair dryer - Professional ReviewSPOTLIGHTED POST

My Salon, stylist and clients love our Supersonics - We love it so much that we now have four of them.There’s an enormous number of reviews out there and I should be sharing more than I am, but I wanted to show people my favourites. The reason I upgraded the salon’s hair dryers to Dyson is because of one review in particular. TheSalonGuy - Honest Review from a Stylist of the Dyson Pro Hair Dryer - TheSalonGuy. For me, their video really brought the ease of styling to life.Another that I think demonstrated the drying speed and incorporates the entire salon experience is - Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer Pro in Action! I’d love if others shared their favourite videos, maybe I could learn something new, a reason to buy a Airwrap maybe? 😀 (Converted to Featured Article)

4 month old Supersonic Pro Stops Working Mid-dry/All Lights Flash

Hello. Can anyone help? This $500 hair dryer is 4 months old. It will randomly turn itself off and then all lights flash. Dyson is telling me they can’t refund me, which I think is wrong give them hairdryer is only 4 months old. Anyone else have this issue? The machine is new and regularly cleaned and stored in its case when not in use, and only I am using it with my husband occasionally using it, so it’s not as if it is getting over-used.  Anyone else in this boat? Pretty frustrating for something that was so expensive, and is basically brand new.

Dyson Airstrait sets off Dyson air purifier

Everytime I use the air strait, even on completely dry mode, my Dyson air purifier shows purple/red.Doesn't happen when I use my Dyson supersonic or any other hair heat tools. Any clue what this emission is? Should we be concerned about health risks?

Dyson Airwrap Abroad - Japan vs US

Hello, I am traveling to Japan for an extended time, but live in the US. I am looking to buy a dyson air wrap to have with me in both places. I was wondering if it would be better for me to buy in Japan (slightly lower voltage than US), and use that one or buy in US and use that one.

dyson hairdryer makes my hair greasy more quickly

Hello,I got a new Dyson hairdryer recently and I've noticed when I dry my hair, even without using the styling attachments, it gets greasy much more quickly. It is just happening with the Dyson as I dried my hair with my old Philips hairdryer to check and my hair lasts much longer in between washes than with the Dyson.  I haven't changed anything in my routine and no new products so it has to be the hairdryer but i can't work out why?? Or how to fix this. Any ideas?  Thankssteph

round brush keeps coming off

I got the air warp at Christmas. The round brush attachment keeps coming away from the main styler every time I use it. It’s clicked in properly but just pops off every single time, no matter what. It’s really frustrating!!!

Dyson Airstrait performance

Hi, This thread is to inform others that the Dyson airstrait does NOT function at higher altitudes.  I was not aware of this when purchased, and discovered this after the 30 day return period.  Dyson has done nothing to rectify other than offer more products that won’t work at altitude.  Buyer beware. I also couldn’t leave a review, so had to resort to leaving here for others to be made aware of this incredibly frustrating design flaw.

Dyson Supersonic Hairdryer Not Working

I purchased a Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer from a store in Dublin, Ireland on 20th March 2021. The guarantee is out of date since last March 2023. The hairdryer has been working intermittently in the last two weeks and stopped working totally yesterday. I cleaned the filter as per instruction on the My Dyson website. I paid €300 for this hairdryer and it has only lasted two years and eight months and I really don’t feel that this is satisfactory. I have had other cheaper brands of hair dryers in the past and they have lasted over five years. Is there support available?Many thanks

I have a Dyson Airwrap bought in India and I’m moving to UK. Wondering whether the Airwrap will work in UK? I have checked that the operating voltages are the same. But someone I know experienced a short circuit in their room when using an India bought hair dryer (non-Dyson hair dryer).Any thoughts on this would help. Thank you
