I didn’t rate the original Dyson Airwrap – has the new version ironed out the kinks? | Sali Hughes on beauty


The original was pricey and ineffective. It’s still exorbitant but the personally programmable upgrade is a major improvement

While I have girlfriends who would sooner surrender their dishwasher or telly than their beloved and more expensive Airwrap, I gave mine away after a handful of attempts, having found it a faff with limited rewards. This information is then used to design the right curling cycle for the owner, combining temperature, airflow and duration of hot-air styling v cool shot setting (remember: in hairdressing it’s always “hot to mould, cold to hold”). The result, for me, has been curls and waves that last (albeit with decreasing definition) for literally days until my next wash, when the original model gave me barely an hour.
