This makes the styling process a lot more user-friendly, especially for first-timers, and addresses a common user complaint that Airwrap curls don't last . The newer functionality also eliminates the need to manually toggle between settings (or wonder how long you need to curl each strand for the style to actually last on your hair type).Read M
We have tested it against all other tools, including Shark flexstyle, and nothing works as good as the new Dyson curling barrels.Watch W
If you style your hair regularly and care about its long-term health, the Dyson Airwrap is 100% worth buying. The V9 motor, 150°C heat cap, and multi-attachment system genuinely deliver results you can't replicate with cheaper tools. Is Dyson Airwrap worth buying even at Rs. 46,000? For frequent users, the math works.Read M
I also have the new re-engineered ones and I like the new ones just because the coanda effect is a lot stronger, there's a lot better directional airflow, you're not going to have as much fly aways and as much frizz.Watch M
The i.d keeps everything that made the original Airwrap so popular – the Coanda effect, the range of attachments, the low-heat approach to styling – and adds two meaningful upgrades: app customisation, and each attachment now has an RFID chip that automatically sets the right heat and airflow for that tool.Read A
And I finish each hairstyle with the new Coanda smoothing dryer head attachment (my favourite), to hide flyaways.Watch G

The Dyson Airwrap has advanced a lot since it first came out, so I've been very intrigued by it and I did really want one.

Alas, I finally have one and I’m excited to hear your thoughts and what I should do with it next!Watch W

Which is crazy because it still hands down is my most used hair tool. And I've actually loved using it the normal way. I shared a lot of content using it my non-conventional way where I flip it upside down like a wand, but lately I've loved the smaller barrel and I've loved using it the normal way to get really pretty bouncy like typical Dyson curls. So, that's what we're going to do today. I think the reason that I have loved doing my hair that way instead of the wand way is because I actually took out a row of extensions.Watch S

Prior to this, I had the very original Dyson Air Wrap and I have to say the newer version is so much better. Dyson did upgrade quite a few things and as someone that had the very original and did not upgrade until now, I think this is a huge step in the right direction. First thing I love is the two new barrels. I love the two sizes. I love the fact that this one creates kind of very tight curls. And I also love that you only need one for both sides.Watch W

Working on getting it to hold a curl as it does fall flat after an hour but still has body and looks better than not using it. Watched a few videos when I first got on how to use it properly and I think that’s key. I don’t think the airwrap does damage on its own and is actually far better on hair than straightener or curling iron. However, if you are pulling your hair and not using it right — yeah, could cause damage!Read thread A
