Skip the Hair Salon, This Amazing Dyson Hair Dryer Is Being Sold at a Loss by Amazon
In the hair industry, not many companies get the respect Dyson has. Dyson is known for their vacuum expensive vacuum cleaners but they have also changed the hair dryer industry by creating salon-quality styling from home.

You will have a hair dryer that feels light, is ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in your hand and will not drain you during long periods of use. There is more: it even has intelligent heat control when using the hair dryer. It has a built-in sensor that measures air temperature more than 40 times a second and it can help prevent heat damage and helps retain your hair's natural shine. The hair dryer features Dyson's Air Multiplier technology which generates a high-speed jet of air that dries hair in less time—and less frizz—while also smoothing strands to ensure you get that professional styling every time. On top of that, the Supersonic dryer provides magnetic styling attachments from gentle air (for relaxed or tender scalps), to styling concentrator (to focus on specific areas), to a diffuser (for curly hairs). Each attachment is easy to trade out and is designed for both usability and efficiency. The Supersonic is also made to keep the user comfortable: Thanks to the engineering of the sound profile, you can dry and style your hair at any time of the day and not disturb anyone else!

Oasis unveil Live 25 Tour merchandise with homage to iconic Knebworth gigs
Amazon has dropped an exclusive Oasis merchandise collection. Ahead of the eagerly awaited 'Oasis Live '25 Tour' - which kicks off in Cardiff on July 4 - the major online retailer has announced a series of designs spanning the Britpop legends' 30-year history. The first drop is 'Knebworth 1996' t-shirts, long sleeve t-shirts and jumpers; emblazoned with the Oasis logo on the crest sitting atop the bold Union Jack tricolour. The design is a tribute to the band's era-defining shows at the Hertfordshire park in 1996, which saw the 'Supersonic' group play to 250,000 fans over two evenings. Over the next six months Amazon will drop further designs, including odes to Oasis' 2006 North American Tour and the Wembley concerts from 1997's 'All Around The World' tour, plus classic album artwork merchandise for 'Be Here Now' and 'Heathen Chemistry'. Laura Lukanz, Head of Music Industry, UK, Australia and New Zealand at Amazon Music, said: 'Ahead of the seismic return of Oasis this summer, we're excited to bring this exclusive range of merch to the fans. Throwing back to some of their most iconic gigs and albums, from Knebworth '96 to Heathen Chemistry, these designs capture moments in Oasis history and are an essential for those going to the shows this summer, or for fans looking to celebrate this monumental moment. And we're just getting started – stay tuned for more exclusive drops to follow!' Oasis merchandise is available globally on Amazon now. Oasis will first take to the stage this summer for two performances at Cardiff's Principality Stadium. The UK and Ireland tour will also visit Manchester's Heaton Park, London's Wembley Stadium, Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium and Dublin's Croke Park throughout July, August and September. After tickets for the UK and Ireland shows went on sale last year, there was outrage as some standard tickets appeared to have jumped from £148 to £355. The controversy prompted the Government and the UK's competition watchdog to pledge that they would look at the use of dynamic pricing. The band is also travelling to Japan, South Korea, South America, Australia and North America and a movie, produced by Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight, is being made in conjunction with the reunion tour. Oasis, who signed to independent record label Creation Records in 1993, soared to fame after they released their debut chart-topping album Definitely Maybe on August 29 1994. They had hits with songs including Champagne Supernova, Wonderwall, Supersonic and Live Forever. Noel quit the rock group in August 2009 saying he 'simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer'.

Dyson confirms very smart new vacuum and it's like nothing we've seen before
Dyson is launching a wafer-thin new vacuum cleaner, and it's like nothing the UK firm has released before. It's called the PencilVac and aims to offer a lightweight way of sucking up the muck from your floors. Dyson is boasting that this will be the world's slimmest vacuum and will measure in at just 38mm in diameter. That should make it feel more like an old-fashioned broom than a high-tech carpet cleaner. And don't think that skinny stick design will mean poor power. Dyson says its upcoming dust buster will feature a Hyperdymium 140k motor which can spin at up to 140,000RPM to generate 55AW of powerful suction. To ensure you don't miss a spec of dirt, it also comes with Dyson's clever laser head, which guides you to the grime. There's also a clever double brush bar to help make this new machine Dyson's most manoeuvrable vacuum. This will help users clean perfectly backwards or sideways, right up to the edges – all with minimum effort. Because it's so thin, Dyson has also added a new air-compressing bin design to this device. This is able to compress the dust as it is separated from the airflow, and means the smaller collection bin can hold five times more dust and debris. The new PencilVac also gets a small display, smartphone connectivity and a new magnetic dock for refills. The only slight drawback of having such a thin vacuum is battery life, as this machine only lasts for around 30 minutes before needing a refill. You can swap the battery if you need more cleaning time, but it's certainly a compromise. The other thing to note is that this machine won't go on sale until 2026 and we're yet to see official pricing. 'I have long wanted to make a vacuum of only 38mm diameter (the same as my latest hair dryer, the Supersonic),' said James Dyson, Founder of Dyson. 'But first we needed to develop our most powerful Hyperdymium motor at only 28mm diameter to achieve such a slender machine. Then a new dust separation and compaction system was developed. We have taken cleaner heads in a new direction with our four conical brush bars counter rotating, so that the head simply floats on the floor, giving excellent cleaning in any direction.' And, speaking about the cleaner, John Churchill, Chief Technology Officer at Dyson added: 'Engineering our smallest and fastest vacuum motor is no simple feat. It was more than miniaturising every piece of technology. 'From a new motor, a new paradigm in cleaner heads, to a new separation system, the Dyson PencilVacTM represents our most advanced engineering to date.' READ SOURCE

Dyson invents world's THINNEST vacuum that looks just like a broom – and skinny ‘PencilVac' has special ‘hair' trick too
Where's the bin? Dyson has a clever solution for that CLEAN SWEEP Dyson invents world's THINNEST vacuum that looks just like a broom – and skinny 'PencilVac' has special 'hair' trick too Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) DYSON has invented a mind-bendingly thin vacuum cleaner that's as svelte as a broom.

Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 8 Dyson says it has created the world's thinnest vacuum cleaner Credit: Dyson 8 The ultra-slim Dyson PencilVac has a breakthrough motor and bin design Credit: Dyson 8 The gadget looks just like a broom – but far more hi-tech Credit: Dyson Branded the 'PencilVac', Dyson's new cleaning tool promises to be the "world's slimmest vacuum". And it can even lay almost totally flat to the floor with an operating height of just under 10cm. The vacuum cleaner ditches the giant bin normally featured on Dyson products for a new system that compacts the dust into the PencilVac's slender body. "I have long wanted to make a vacuum of only 38mm diameter," said Sir James Dyson, the company boss. He explained that the thickness is important – it's the same as the Dyson's Supersonic hair dryer handle. Dyson continued: "But first we needed to develop our most powerful Hyperdymium motor at only 28mm diameter to achieve such a slender machine." HAIR WE GO! It also uses a bizarre new Fluffycones system that uses four cones split across two brush bars. This system works to eject long hair as you clean, so you don't have to pull or cut it out. 'If long hairs get wrapped around the cone, the spinning motion along with the specific angle of the cone causes the hair to tighten,' said Dyson's Sam Cole, Floorcare Design Manager, speaking to The Sun. 'Which results in the hair travelling down to the smaller end of the cone, before it is released as a small hairball.' We tried Dyson's new OnTrac headphones There's also a new two-stage dust separation system, which Dyson engineers say will capture 99.99% of particles (down to 0.3 microns). That means cleaner air is pumped back into your home – and should mean suction stays strong. The dust inside is compressed in real-time to get as much usage possible out of the small bin, and should mean you have to empty it less often. According to gadget-maker Dyson, the bin holds five times more dust and debris than its 0.08-litre capacity. 8 The device can eject hair as you vacuum so it doesn't get caught up in the system Credit: Dyson This works using a syringe "bin ejection" system that "plunges" the dirt deep into the bin – while also wiping the shroud clean at the same time. MOTOR RUNNING It's all powered by a new motor that's Dyson's smallest to date – as well as its fastest, spinning at 140,000rpm. This, Dyson says, makes it 35% more "power dense" than its predecessor, despite the shrunken size. 'Engineering our smallest and fastest vacuum motor is no simple feat. It was more than miniaturising every piece of technology," said Dyson tech chief John Churchill. 8 You can easily clean hard-to-reach places with the slimmed-down design – and then dispense the contents of the bin in seconds Credit: Dyson "It is a precise integration of motor design, electronics, software, and hardware, all working together seamlessly." IN CHARGE Dyson says it'll take about four hours to get a full charge. 8 The new design allows for lay-flat vacuuming, making it easy to get under the sofa Credit: Dyson DYSON PENCILVAC – THE TECH SPECS Here's what you need to know... Size: 38mm x 226mm x 1,160mm (W x L x H) Weight: 1.8 kilos Motor: Dyson Hyperdymium 140k motor Motor RPM: 140,000 Filtration: Up to 99.99% (dow to 0.l3 microns) Runtime: Up to 30 minutes Charge time: Four hours Cleaner Head: Fluffycones cleaner head (for detangling long hair and to-edge cleaning) Accessories: Rotating combi-crevice tool / conical hair screw for mattresses and stairs / magnetic floor-charging dock Picture Credit: Dyson And it'll run for 30 minutes – with a hot swappable battery pack to double that. You'll be able to see the remaining run-time on an LCD screen built into the device (as well as the power mode). Sadly there's no price yet, or an exact UK release date. But Dyson did say Brits would be able to get the PencilVac in 2026. 8 There's a built-in LCD display on the vacuum cleaner Credit: Dyson
