I tried the Dyson Airwrap for a Week (fail!) Is it Worth $550??? 

Wet Hair??? I've been seeing a lot of comments about how wet my hair was (or was not). I followed the steps dyson suggests (as you can see in this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7qKdB2fgd3w.html) and my hair was as damp as the guide suggested. I have noticed over the years doing my hair on camera that it does look dryer on camera than it feels to the touch, which I think is the confusion here. I would not have posted this review had I not been sure that I followed the directions correctly. Additionally, as I was going through there were sections that were wetter (some were very wet still) than others and I made sure to look and see if the results from those sections were any better. I didn't notice any appreciable difference on my hair. Just remember that I *wanted* this to work and I gave it every chance I could. I am curious now what the results would have been if I left my hair totally wet or at least very damp, but I feel like that would have taken my whole life to do! I was already doin 45 seconds to a minute on each curl and spending 45 minutes total. What would it have been if my hair was all the way wet?? And like I said, I didn't notice any appreciable difference between wetter sections and dryer sections. I hope that clears things up!!

“This looks like something that a women who has her life together would have....I do not qualify.” Same girl Same.

you remind me of brigit medler teddy from good luck charlie

I want ALL of your sweaters in this video where are they from (especially the orange one)

Thank you for going past first impressions and actually giving it a few days to develop a comprehensive opinion! Super helpful!

I think using the “ prestyler “ is a mistake for your hair type

Oh good, you were the one I NEEDED to see review this 😂

This is so strange, I did my hair with this for my graduation yesterday and it survived 8+ hours in 30°C+ temperatures

Thank you for your honest and in depth review! I take your hair advice as gospel truth because you have yet to steer me wrong! Thanks for saving me the money on a product that isn't yet up to snuff!

I'm actually really happy with it, but after seeing tons of reviews I've come to the conclusion that the results depend A LOT on the hair type and length. I have super fine and dry hair because of many years of bleachig and dying it, to the point that I need to use the flat iron every day so I don't look like I've been electrocuted or something. I mean, the frizz is very real with my hair (besides there's a lot of humidity in my city, so it just goes crazy). I was very interested in this product because it promised a smooth result without so much heat therefore less hair damage. And for me, it delivers. It really does. My hair looks smooth, kind of shiny and is really soft, besides it gives me more volume, which I appreciate having such fine hair. Of course it doesn't look as flat as it does when I use the iron, but I'm ok with it because I get the volume instead and way less heat (I use the medium setting). As for the wraps, I wasn't really interested in them becsuse I've never been a fan of curly hair for me, and my hair can't hold a curl to save its life, not even when it's done by a professional, it just falls down after a little while. But of course I tried the wraps out of curiosity (and because I spent 500€) and, even if it took 60 minutes to do my whole head, I was really impressed. It did curl my hair A LOT and it stayed that way. I was hoping it would fall a little so I'd get a wavy look, but it stayed curled. The bottom layers were the ones that lost most of the shape. I have to say though that I used a little of hairspray, but as I mentioned before, ever when a hairdresser does it my curls fall down. So my experience overall is extremely positive, it straightens my hair, it gives volume, it doesn't give me frizz, my hair is soft, and if I care enough to give it the time, it curls my hair (not that I'm going to do it very often). So, as I said, I think hair type and length play a decisive part in wether this works or not. In my case it does. If it helps anyone, I have bleached, dyed, fine, dry and frizzy hair, and my longest layers go more or less to my chest, and the shortest somewhere between my jaw and my shoulders.

Kayley should do more haircare routines. Her hair looks so healthy and beautiful

“I didn’t even touch em” she says with her hand in her hair

I dunno, you made your eyeshadow match the case, that feels like something that someone with their life together would do… 😉

I just bought one and tried it for the first time and am in love. It took less than 30 seconds per curl, it holds etc. I have fine fine hair and I love it, however it is hard to do the back. My curls stayed as well however I used the cool shot and left the curl alone until my whole head was done x

Dyson needed you to test out their product before they released it!

She’s not using this properly, go on the Dyson site and watch their videos. Also if you’re going to put curls in your hair why are you basically brushing them out and think the curl will still stay. I own one and love it, I have shoulder length hair and it’s thick. I’d say try for yourself and if it’s not for you return it.

You better not get ANY hate comments from this product failing for you! Every RU-vidr I have seen review this, and not like it, has gotten hate comments telling them how they must have not used it right. 🙄 just like you said, you know what you're doing.. PLUS you used it exactly how Dyson said to, and gave it so many chances AND you tried doing different techniques. It's not worth the $500-$600 in any way. I'd much rather spend $100 all together for a hair dryer & a curling iron!

I've seen many RU-vidrs give not so great reviews on this product. Yours was the most thorough though.

You just helped me financially. No longer "needing" to have this. Hahaha

Hey Kayley!! I just wanted to say that I finally bought the Dyson airwrap after coveting it since it’s release and I’ve had success with it!! I just want to put my two cents in on a few things I’ve noticed from your video. First I think now that you have shorter hair you should give it another shot. The tool works best on medium length hair! I think Dyson made the barrel shorter because the body of the tool is already so freakishly long but it just can’t hold that much hair. They did release longer barrels FYI. Also I noticed in the video you added products for heat protectant and smoothing but nothing for hold. I used the Dyson on my perfectly clean hair and the curls fell fast but when I apply a mouse the curls lasted much longer! I also added a little hairspray as well. They still relax but I prefer the wavy blow out look! It’s so glamorous and soft. I know mouse sounds old school but trust me products have come a long way. I recommend the living proof thickening mouse! I am seriously in love with my Dyson and I get better results with it than I did with my curling iron. I put all my other old hair tools in storage after my Dyson arrived, seriously. Also I’m obsessed with how time saving it is and the lower heat required. I know the price is crazy and the Dyson is certainly not a necessary item but Im super happy with it!

I wish I’d seen this before I bought the air wrap. I thought it was just me, I simply cannot get my curls to hold!

I’m so relieved I found this video because I honestly thought I was going insane and the only person in the world who couldn’t hold the curl! My hair is a similar texture and loves being curly with a wand or tong and will last for days. NOT the airwrap! Gone in 30 mins. What I’m left with is a frizzy rough wave. My hair looked amazing after I used the round brush but I dared walk to another room and boom, all the waves and flicks were gone :( and it does indeed get very hot near your neck and yep it all takes ages too. The dryer is amazing but who wants to pay £450 for a hairdryer?! If anyone has some tips what I’m doing wrong then I’m all ears 👂 x

Thanks for your honest review! My experience was different but I definitely see using it that it might not work well for everyone. I get really shiny smooth hair and I have thick curly hair, but I can see that I handle the roundbrush differently than you were. I can't really explain it, but I kind of smooth the hair over the roundbrush by kind of rolling the hair around is at the root and then going down the hair section. I definitely think the curlers are better in theory. They work for me, but they take longer than just using my ghd to create curls. I will say that I get better results with wetter hair than is stricly recommended. Your hair looked quite dry in the video, so that might be part of the problem. But your right than it's not faster or better than a curling iron. Personally, I just really love the round brush because I have no talent roundbrushing with a standard hair dryer and I find I get much better results than with cheaper versions of the roundbrush dryer stylers that I have tried in the past. That's my 2 cents but I really enjoyed your video and totally felt for you! Thanks for sharing

I’m gunna need a list of where you got your sweaters. ☺️

Your struggle getting your hair to hold the curl is my life every day (regardless of the tool I’m using). I have stubborn straight hair all the time. Welcome to my world.

Question just because in the clips with the Dyson you touched your hair ALOT!!! Which really does make straight hair drop curl and frizz. With your regular routine, did you keep touching alot over and over? Even at the one hour mark you barely touched your hair!!! I'm a hair toucher, so I just want to know if that might be a factor!! Thank you though!!! It was really fantastic to see!! Your honest opinion is appreciated!!!

Can you do a holy grail hair products video? Like products you can’t live without? And an updated how you care for your hair video? Seriously, your hair is goals 🙌

Dont know what you are doing wrong. Cause my hair can't hold anything and with the dyson I'm curly for 5 days. I'd still be curly if I didn't wash it lol

That is disappointing for you to put in so much effort for those poor results. It seems pretty obvious to me that this is not designed with long hair in mind. The curl attachments looked so short as you were wrapping your hair around it. Maybe it only works really well for shorter hair. But I agree, at that price it should not have those limitations or if it’s aimed at a certain hair length they should damn well make that clear.

Me: wishing I'd seen this BEFORE I bought lol

Now my 3-year-old is going around the house saying "smash it with a hammer!" 😂 😂 😂

“OK that looks pretty let’s enjoy over the next minute of its lifetime” I screamed 😂😂😂

OMG!! WHAT LIPSTICK ARE YOU WEARING??? :O its not in the description...its gorgeous!

I appreciate an honest review on a product that could break the bank

Do you have a video/ can you make a video on how you get that “Friends” 90s type of a look? Like lots of volume with a little bit of texture? Hard for me to get curls that stay with insanely straight hair, but usually can get slight texture! Thanks in advance! Love you and your honest reviews!

Gurl I’ve seen many videos where this product actually worked, even for people with curly hair. However, if it doesn’t work you you, then it doesn’t work, sometimes you just gotta keep it pushing. I think maybe the heat from the roller isn’t direct enough for you hair. It’s ok though, you still look gorgeous.

Saw the whole video. Do you think the Sephora reviews were in anyway paid to say good things about the product? So many RU-vidrs don't care for the product either.

"where did my curls go!?!" literally me every time I try to curl my hair.

I have not seen one positive review on this. Did they not test this before putting it on the market or did they just not care and figured they'd make a quick buck before all the bad reviews started rolling in. For something $500 it better be something absolutely amazing.

Here I go with comment number 390, so this will get read like never BUT - the Coandă effect is not a Dyson invention. This principle was named after Romanian aerodynamics pioneer Henri Coandă, who was the first to recognize the practical application of the phenomenon in aircraft development. He first experimented with it back in the 1920-30s, and he got it patented in France back in 1934. On another note, thank you for your educative videos :) as I recently enrolled in beauty school, I appreciate them even more.

Wow....wow....I figured "Yay Kayley knows what she is doing, this may finally be a professional review of this product". Which it definitely is (thank you love). Soooo wow....this is just NOT worth it.....wow.

i bought it recently and tried it on damp hair, couple seconds of heat, couple seconds with the cool shot, and my curls lasted overnight! not sure why it works for some but not all though. hope you manage to figure something out!

that's exactly the impression I had... with my regular curling iron my curls or waves last forever as long as I don't wash my hair and I tried the Dyson at a mall- the curl was literally gone after 10 min or so... WHAT

Agree 100%. My hair is fine and light, and even the lowest setting on this Dyson is way too high for my hair type! I feel like Dyson is SO close, but this fails folks with fine blonde hair.

"AND THEN I'LL SMASH IT WITH A HAMMER!!!" Hahahahaha, I love The Emperor's New Groove! I made it to the end!!! From what I have seen and heard, people with finer, smoother hair seem to be having more difficulties with this tool than those with thicker hair. I have a similar hair type to you, Kayley, plus I don't have $500 laying around... so I'll just marvel at the technology that Dyson creates from afar!

I’m dying because I literally pulled the filter off the same way when I opened it!!

Kayley's dyson curl meltdown is literally my life any time I try to do any curl XD

your supposed to use the cool setting to lock in the curls. when its still hot it will weigh down the curl and set straight! hope this helps!

It works perfectly for me, and I have thick unruly hair. The hair needs to be wet!!! And then you need to leave the curl until it’s completely cool before touching it at all, takes like five minutes. Mist lightly with hairspray and loosen up the curls. Perfect result! The round brush is for a natural blow out, not making curls. With the brushes, my hair gets straight and shiny.

maybe if you didn’t run your finger through your hair it would’ve stayed longer?🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ ik you’re supposed to be able to do that but like this product doesn’t work as well so maybe if you just didn’t touch it, even after it was cool, it wouldn’t fall as quick

OMG, I begged my hubs to get me this. After 1 week of using, I was literally in tears and my hair looked like crap!! Worst purchase ever!!!

Hiii, if you’re planning to giveaway or declutter your dyson airwrap full set, you can hand it to me 😆😆😆

My husband said Thank you for just saving him $600 for Christmas!😂 My hair falls out easy...This definitely won’t work for my hair😕 Thanks for the review! Just subscribed!

I have naturally curly hair and I love my Dyson hair wrap. Like other tools, depends on your hair. I pretty much dry it all super fast on hot heat and then cool curl it all over my head. My hair is in lots of short , medium and long layers...Sort of a mix of Farah Fawcett/Joan Jet style.

The sister in the back:its a waste of time. I couldn't stop laughing 🤣🤣💀💀

Now I'm really torn. I'm watching this because it's *finally* available in my country and i feel like I'd be set with hair tools if i get the kit but oh man, the price... I guess i can return it if it doesn't work out but I don't know...

I will smash it with a HAMMER!! Made it to the end and I think you gave it a very fair shot even though it was clearly doing very little for your hair. Thanks for putting in the work so I know not to bother trying to save up for this.

I never use "blowing brushes" because it takes away all the shine du to the direction of the air. I prefer using a regular brush and a blow dryer where I can direct the air downwards. I have straight hair but if I use one of those brushes I get freez which is something my hair don't even do on its own so... Also sorry for the english errors I'm french.

I definitely think it’s her hair texture. I’ve seen it hold a curl to other textures

There have been many comments against the airwrap but a lot depends on type of hair. I use it and am very pleased by the results but I am reminded of my youth. I was a teenager when razor cutting and blow drying came in. Just before that there was one day when my friend and I had a shampoo and set before going out for the day. It was a damp day. During the day my hair became tighter into the shape of the rollers but my friend’s hair just drooped as if nothing had ben done to it.

I feel the same way! Thanks for taking the time to make this video (I watched the whole thing) I thought I was the only crazy person that could not get the curls to last. I’m super bummed! I will be sending this back.

Personally loving the product but it does have quite a steep learning curve. It took me about 4-5 uses before I could get a nice curl from it that would stay. Something I didn’t see you do, that’s very important for my hair, is cool it down with the cooling setting. You cool it while the hair is still on the wand and that’s what sets it. That’s what makes your curls stay in the hair, I can go for days with just one dyson session now and the curls will stay.

Doesn’t it come with a brush attachment too that helps straighten hair? I’m wondering how well that attachment works on curly hair.

Yea its just not for your hair beacuse I'm absolutely in love my hair now even more than ive ever before! This dyson is a life changer for women with naturally curly thick hair. An i have so many wands from bellami almost all and this dyson is life. Compared to them. Don't get me wrong they are still amazing.❤ but yea I'm extremely happy.

Where is your red lipstick from on the last day cause it’s really pretty and I’ve been looking for red lipstick similar to that shade

You are doing it wronggg you are supposed to let the hair start wrapping from the nearest part of the hair to the roots then let your hair wrap the wand automatically til the ends... not ends first then roll it up to the roots. 🤔

Love the video! Just a question where is your white sweater with the coloured stripes at the sleeves from because I love it 🥰

Did you turn it off after the cooling part?? Like before releasing the curl ?? Hope that helps 😊

Haha if everyone's rage mode is this mild there would be world peace XD also stayed till the end btw!

I made it to the end. I can't say I found the results too surprising. I figured it had to be a flop or a miracle that would make them give up vacuums. Oh well, time for holiday hair!

Totally made it to the end!!! Can't wait to see the new holiday looks.

THIS IS THE BEST AND MOST TRUTHFUL REVIEW OF THE AIRWRAP IN ALL OF YOU TUBE! You are both smart and fun to watch! Congratulations.

Kayley, I'm looking for a new hair dryer, I noticed in this video u used the Kristin Ess dryer I believe. But that vs the T3 which is ur absolute favorite? And which T3 do u have?

Watched the full video. I’d really appreciate a video on how to help make your hair shiny when you don’t have naturally shiny hair. Also, I’m so impressed by how fast you can do your hair. Mine takes forever to dry even when my hairdresser is using a round brush :(

Oh Kayley - that I-just-did-these-curls-why-did-they-fall-out-already feeling is me with any and all hair tools, I know how frustrating it is! I ended up just cutting my hair short haha. Super helpful review! Yours is the only hair opinion I trust!

Just watched. The commercials make it look so compelling. And the results you experienced are totally disappointing. We were doing just as well in the 70's and 80's with blow-dryers and curling irons. My take way== I don't have the energy in my arms to experience the disappointment you beautifully demonstrated. You are beautiful.

How bizarre! I could have sworn that you and I have really similar hair texture/density/porosity/length, but my Dyson Airwrap curls lasted WAY BETTER than yours! I use 90% dry hair, the heat only until the curler reaches the roots, and then cool shot until the hair is literally cold to the touch. No hairspray!

I think maybe the hair didn’t hold the curl because you immediately combed through it while it was still hot and didn’t use hairspray. Also most importantly, your hair was already dry when you used it, it needs to be like only 80% dry. Still seems overpriced though

I’ve watched so many reviews on this and yours was the best! I’m not sure the others would have done a week of trying this out I’d love to see your review on the Tyme Iron.

Thank you SO, SO much, Kayley 😘 Thank you for reflecting what was the truth for me and for so many others I have spoken to who own or have owned the Dyson Airwrap. I am sure there will be others who are prepared to speak up for this product but I can only speak from my own experience which mirrored every single point that Kayley makes here. Like you Kayley, I purchased the Airwrap myself so I wasn't going to give up on it easily. I tried again and again. I spent hours and hours repeating the process, watching tutorials, even asking Dyson for help. I cannot stress how much I regret buying this product. Hate is a strong word but... When I fed back my experience to Dyson (UK) and asked for advice on how to use the product better, they were not even remotely interested. That alone should tell you all you need to know. Please do not do what I did. Please take reviews with a pinch of salt and do not buy unless you have the opportunity to try it for a reasonable amount of time first. Hope this helps someone out there not to make the mistake I did.

I really like your review on this product. Seems super genuine and like how you tried it over a week in different ways. I bought one a few weeks ago and love it. I’m not a hair stylist or guru- In fact I’m a motorcycle mechanic- and before this product I only owned a hair dryer that I only ever used on my fringe. I found this product super easy for myself to use. I loved the results I managed to get compared to my usual air dried hair. I think this product is great for people with next to no coordination or people who may not know that much about hair tools. It comes with everything. Anyway, love how everyone is having different experiences with this tool. At least we do all agree on the crazy cost of it!

Your review is misleading! You didn’t keep touching your hair using the second tool. The second tool you did properly like: dividing your hair in sections, your hair was damp, and you finish the whole head before touching! So it’s not a fair comparison when you are clearly trying to give tumbs down to dyson! May not work for you, which is ok! However the way you have used the tools were wrong!

Great video review! Very honest and fun! You are a lovely stylist! Thanks!

I’ve had mine for six months and I love it. It takes some trial and error to learn how to use it correctly with your hair

15 min routine? ...I wish...🙈 My hair routine (just curling+styling) takes 1,5 hour , but I have muuuuch more hair, bit shorter than yours 😋

I've found it work better with dry hair. Slightly dampen hair with sprayer pick a small section, 5 seconds on each strand bam whole head done it less than 10 mins. I do have quite thin shoulder length hair but for me it's been a miracle and I use it every day

I made it to the end, and I want your shiny hair because I have frizzy hair

You are putting too much hair on the barrel-take smaller sections, and re-mist as you go. It should grab the section, you don’t roll it up. Press the barrel against you head after it grabs,Your hair is drying, before you finish. Re-dampen with a mister, as you go because it takes a long time with such long hair. This just does not grab as well, or curl as well with dryer hair. You have gorgeous hair, by the way!

As much as it think you did a great review for your hair type - I have a similar length hair and can go from soaking wet just got out of the shower to curls that last 2 days in about 15 minutes with my Dyson so i think it is very different for different hair types (I mean, spending £500 to find that out would be VERY annoying! I hope you returned it if it didnt work for you!)

I did it for the first time without watching any videos and my hair was perfection in 15 minutes. I was screaming the whole time "WHAT IS HAPPENING?!" because I couldn't believe the magic happening before my very eyes!! This thing is a gift from god. Period. And the end. P.S. I have thick hair that has a slight natural wave and it's past my shoulders.

Made it to the end. Would never pay that much for it anyway, but now I definitely wouldn’t.

Can you make a video of cool Chrismas hairstyle`s becuse i have a dinner next week🤗🤗🤗 Greetings from The Netherlands😉

Another youtube on here “Ariba Pervaiz” has hair EXACTLY like yours in length and body, and she is getting amazing results in her video with this product.

for me dyson airwrap is amazing product for curl beacy waves

You should try the Revlon One Step Hair Dryer and Styler, it's a much cheaper alternative and I loved it

thank you for this! do you have a video where you talk about your go to products that you're using on this video. I LOVE how your hair looks when you do your thing !

Love you girly, I love when you test products out! It really helps me to find out what’s worth my money and the best for my hair. 💛🌼

I dont now if you did that nbut after making the curl you need to set it to the cold position than it stay longer. And the curl is more beautiful. Sorry im Dutch so my English is not so good😅

I felt she did a poor job of demonstrating the correct way to use it you should never mess with curls until they are set. She did not hold it in place long enough either. Other videos better demonstrate the best way to use it.

Hey lady your hair definitely looked a lot better with the t3. For the amount of money Dyson charges on this it should work properly. Your not the only one I try it on my daughter hair at ulta. Granted it was not the same condition as you were doing but it still did the same thing to her hair. Xoxo thanks for the video. 😉
