For me, a dryer lives and dies by its diffuser, and I’ve by no means seen one like this, which is definitely two diffusers. In “diffuse mode,” it appears to be like like every diffuser you’ve got ever seen, with prongs to get proper into the foundation to dry and assist with quantity. Dyson says this one is greatest for extra textured curls and coils.
Pop that prong half off to make use of “dome mode.” As a substitute of pushing air out, it creates a vortex of air inside the dome so air spins across the curls to dry them. It is meant to elongate and improve waves and curls. For my hair, they have been greatest used collectively, and I believe many curl varieties would profit from each. I dried the roots and coarser backside layer with the common diffuser, after which switched to the dome for the size, significantly specializing in the broken curls on prime that require a bit extra care to deliver out the form.
You may discover a number of slight visible adjustments from the primary Supersonic. Lights change colours primarily based on the warmth setting, turning blue for cool, yellow for low warmth, orange for medium, and pink for prime. It makes it a little bit extra fun-looking, nevertheless it’s additionally a pleasant visible cue to shortly examine which setting you are on. My favourite new addition although, is the clear again the place the settings are, which supplies you an inside have a look at among the internals. As a huge fan of ’90s clear tech, I need extra of this on a regular basis. Dyson, for those who’re studying this, the individuals need absolutely clear hair instruments with candy-colored wires.
Placing many of the controls on the again of the barrel is a brilliant transfer (because it was with the unique). Most dryers put the buttons proper the place your fingers grip the deal with, so you possibly can unintentionally change settings once you’re simply making an attempt to carry it to your head. Right here, the ability swap and chilly shot button are on the deal with, however out of the way in which.
