Dyson who? This Shark Hair Styler Costs Half as Much and Delivers Similar Results
Dyson's blow dry and styling lines have been the upscale choice for years to achieve salon-quality results, but there's a company causing some serious waves with top performance at significantly more affordable prices: Shark. The Shark HD430 FlexStyle is also a safe solution for your hair, and with Amazon's one-day sale setting a new all-time low price, now just $249 down from its usual $349. See at Amazon Its slim profile at a little more than 1.5 pounds, the Shark machine is effortless to maneuver but packs a punch with its forceful motor that can dry hair quickly and efficiently. It's not as simple as drying, however; the brilliance of the FlexStyle is its ingenious design, and converts from full-featured hair dryer to multi-styler at the touch of a button. You're given all the flexibility you'll ever need to experiment with your look this summer and beyond, no matter what your hair type. What really makes the Shark HD430 FlexStyle a smart choice is how it protects hair and still delivers professional-quality results: Typical dryers rely on intense heat that can ultimately damage hair, dry it out, or cause it to become brittle in the long term. Shark technology meets this problem head-on: The FlexStyle continuously monitors and regulates temperatures 1,000 times a second, and delivers consistent airflow and avoiding overheat exposure. Shark equips the FlexStyle with a range of intelligent attachments suited to different styling needs: The 1.25-inch Auto-Wrap Curlers use Coanda Technology to pull, wrap and curl your hair without deception or excessive grip on your hair. Each set comes with two curlers so you can get bouncy curls in multiple directions for a salon-finish. For volume lovers, the Oval Brush combines air flow with detangling bristles to smooth frizz and add body, and the Paddle Brush attachment straightens and smoothes in one go. Lastly, completing the set is the rotating styling concentrator nozzle which provides precise control for anything from smooth blowouts to intentionally textured waves. If you need to refresh your styling kit this summer, now's the time. See at Amazon

Cheaper Than Dyson, This Shark Hair Dryer and Styler Hits a New Low for Early Prime Day
Dyson has been a familiar name for years with its prestige dryers and stylers, but the monopoly doesn't exist anymore. In America, Shark has also made an appearance as a strong contender with a product that looks like the Dyson in both form and function but costs a fraction of the price. With Amazon's first Prime Day sale, the Shark HD430 air styling and drying system can now be obtained for just $249, down from its usual $350. That is a 29% discount, which is approximately half of Dyson's counterpart and is the lowest Amazon has ever offered it for this model. See at Amazon The Shark hair dryer ican help you achieve salon-quality looks in the comfort of your own home. The machine is designed for every hair type from straight to wavy, curly to coily. The system comes with an assortment of attachments that enable you to curl, volumize, smooth and dry your hair with one machine. Included in the box are two 1.25-inch auto-wrap curlers, an oval brush, a paddle brush, and a concentrator nozzle, all of which give you the full range of styling options without having to use separate tools. While most styling tools employ extreme heat that deteriorates hair in the long run, this product uses intelligent heat control, taking and modifying heat 1,000 times a second. This dries your hair quickly with little exposure to heat which saves your hair from dryness and damage normally incurred while styling your hair daily. The 1300-watt motor gives intense airflow power for quick drying, but the machine remains very lightweight and small at slightly over 1.5 pounds. The auto-wrap curlers uses Coanda technology to automatically wrap hair around the barrel for easy curls in either direction. This feature is especially convenient if you struggle with traditional curling irons as it eliminates much of the guesswork and manual labor in the process. The oval brush attachment is best for volume and bounce and to defrizz and smooth, and the paddle brush straightens and smooths hair in a single step. The concentrator design gives concentrated airflow for intense drying and styling, and the rotating nozzle enables you to direct the flow wherever you need it. For someone wanting to upgrade their hair care without sacrificing value, this Prime Day deal early on is one not to pass up. See at Amazon
