Dyson, yes the company that revolutionized vacuums, unveiled a new product this week promising to change the game when it comes to hair.
It’s called the Dyson Supersonic hairdryer and retails for $399. It took over four years, thousands of strands of hair and over $60 million dollars to create.

Dyson claims the new technology will help with heat damage and offers three different attachments that are magnetic and easily snap on.
Founder Sir James Dyson stated in a press release, “We realized that hair dryers can cause extreme heat damage to hair. So I challenged Dyson engineers to really understand the science of hair and develop our version of a hair dryer, which we think solves these problems.”
The hairdryer has received mixed reviews. While one of Kim Kardashian’s hair stylists, Jen Atkin, calls is a “game changer” other hairstyling professionals such as Joanne Morgan told CNN, “I think it’s definitely a luxury rather than a necessity.”
The Dyson Supersonic is available at Sephora with other retailers set to follow.
