If you’ve been anywhere on social media in the last few years, you’ve heard of the Dyson Airwrap. Loved for its ability to dry and style hair without extreme heat, it’s one of the quickest and effortless ways to do your hair. Although it comes with a high price tag, it’s proved its power time and time again. If you’re thinking about taking the plunge and purchasing the Airwrap or have just bought it and don’t know where to begin, we’ve got you! Here are 9 Dyson Airwrap tutorials for all hair lengths!
What Is The Dyson Airwrap?
The Dyson Airwrap is a hair styling tool that allows you to blow dry and style your hair without extreme heat. It directs air into the hair to give body and the bristles create tension to shape hair as it dries. According to the Dyson website, the Airwrap harnesses an aerodynamic phenomenon called the Coanda effect that curves air to attract and wrap hair to the barrel. It comes equipped with different styling attachments for different hair styles, from soft curls to casual waves to smooth and straight styles. It dries and styles simultaneously with air rather than extreme heat, saving you time and protecting your hair against heat damage.
10 Dyson Airwrap Tips for Beginners
1. If you don’t plan on curling your hair with the barrels, use any of the brushes or blow-dryer attachments to dry your hair completely
2. If you’re planning on curling your hair, it works best if your hair is damp, so dry it to about 75% to 85%
3. Section and clip your hair up so it’s out of the way and you’re only working on one section at a time
4. Choose the barrel size for how big you want your waves/curls. Keep in mind, in order to switch the direction of your curls, you have to switch out the barrel or hold it upside down (there are helpful arrows on the barrels to direct you).
5. You can either manually wrap your hair or let the air wrap your hair itself. To do this, you hold your section of hair in the middle and place the barrel right next to your ends until they catch and wrap. All you have to do is move it towards your head.
6. Hold it for 15 seconds or until the hair is completely dry. Then set the curl with the cold shot for 10-15 seconds.
7. For a blow out, start with the directional brush attachment and brush your hair in all directions to create maximal volume. Then use the round brush to bend the ends to get the blown out salon look.
8. If you want beach waves, use the smallest barrels. Grab a section of hair and start manually wrapping from the root area, wrapping once around and letting it sit for a couple seconds then wrapping again and waiting. Do this until you’ve wrapped the entire section of hair. Put a cool shot on as you wrap the ends.
9. For natural lift, use the brush attachment to lift the front of your hair at the roots.
10. Add a styling product like hairspray to maximize holdability.
