Beauty Must-Have: Dyson Supersonic Review

10/07/2019 By Claire 4 Comments

Disclaimer: First of all, I would like to point out that this review is not sponsored. I bought the Dyson Supersonic myself and quite a number of people in my @wearedresscape Instagram community requested a review, and I thought it would be a great topic for a post.

What’s the hype?

This might be the most popular hairdryer ever, which is immediately recognizable with its sleek futuristic and Instagram-proof design. Yes, this hairdryer is a delight for the eyes first.

Then, it is advertised as being very protective of the hair, for several reasons:

  • It is said to monitor the air temperature 40 times per second in order to avoid overheating and therefore hair damage. (It also avoids you getting burnt by the piping hot hairdryer itself.)
  • The motor is situated on the bottom of the handle part, resulting in no hair getting stuck in it during the drying process, not as in other traditional hairdryers.

What comes in the box?

When you buy a Dyson Supersonic, it typically comes with 3 magnetic styling attachements, which are a styling concentrator, a diffuser and a smoothing nozzle. Speaking for myself, I would commonly use two out of the three, leaving out the diffuser. And Nicolas’s favourite is the styling concentrator.

Time for the big question: Is it worth the hype?

Pros

  • I do not have a particular problem with damaged hair, but there is no harm in being extra cautious. I found this hairdryer to be quite powerful without harming my hair: I usually lose a lot of time drying my hair, even though it’s short, literally because I have tons of hair. So saving a bit of time in the morning is great!
  • Another point I would like to mention is that I have a big issue with frizzing. Whenever I use a hairdryer that is a bit agressive on the hair, I find myself with tons of little hairs spiking out and frizz. That’s annoying. I must say that the Dyson Supersonic helped with this issue, and I can now avoid frizzing.
  • I also found that the non-heating feature helped with my easily regreasing scalp issue: my scalp regreases less quickly when I dry my hair with the Dyson Supersonic vs a conventional hairdryer.

Cons

  • Maybe what I liked less about this tool is that I do not find it very ergonomic. Let me explain: I sometimes miss the kind of “grip” that is found on most hairdryers. Therefore I am always extra careful when using it, because I fear I might drop it.
  • Also, at first, I thought that the buttons could have been positionned differently, because I found them hard to navigate while using the tool. But then I realized I had to change the way I was holding it, by holding it higher, and everything is fine now!
  • My last point would be regarding the price. 449 CHF can surely be a prohibitive price for a commonly used tool like a hairdryer. But at the same time, it has got so much technology in it, so much research was put in order to create this product, that it explains at least partially the high price tag. So I guess it is up to one’s to decide whether they want to spend that much money on a hairdryer. I personnally considered it as an investment, hoping that it would last me longer than the cheaper ones I have owned until now. Moreover, it was a gift for our new flat, so we kind of spoiled ourselves for the occasion.

In a nutshell

Nicolas and I are both very happy with this product and do not regret acquiring it. Of course, we cannot say anything regarding the durability of the product yet, as we have had it for only a few months. But we enjoy it a lot on a daily basis and both of us find it very efficient and we even have the impression that it makes our hair even shinier.


Disclaimer : Tout d’abord, je tiens à souligner que cet examen n’est pas sponsorisé. J’ai acheté le Dyson Supersonic moi-même et un certain nombre de personnes dans ma communauté Instagram @wearedresscape ont demandé une review de ce produit, et j’ai pensé que ce serait un super sujet pour un article.

Pourquoi tant d’attention?

Ce sèche-cheveux est peut-être le plus populaire de tous, car il est immédiatement reconnaissable à son design futuriste et élégant, totalement Instagrammable. Oui, ce sèche-cheveux est un plaisir pour les yeux avant tout.

Puis, il est mis en avant comme étant très protecteur des cheveux, pour plusieurs raisons:

  • Il est expliqué que cet appareil contrôle la température de l’air 40 fois par seconde afin d’éviter la surchauffe et donc les dommages aux cheveux.
  • Son moteur est situé sur la partie inférieure de la poignée, ce qui permet d’éviter que les cheveux ne s’y coincent pendant le séchage, comme c’est le cas avec la plupart des sèche-cheveux traditionnels.

Quels accessoires sont compris?

Lorsque vous achetez un Dyson Supersonic, il est généralement livré avec 3 embouts magnétiques, qui sont les suivants: un concentrateur de brushing, un diffuseur et un embout lissant. En ce qui me concerne, j’en utilise habituellement deux sur les trois, en laissant de côté le diffuseur. Et le préféré de Nicolas est le concentrateur de brushing.

Moment de vérité: En vaut-il la peine?

Les plus

  • Mes cheveux ne sont pas abîmés, ce n’était donc pas une problématique pour moi, mais il n’y a pas de mal à être prudent. J’ai trouvé ce sèche-cheveux très puissant sans pour autant brûler mes cheveux. En effet, je perds habituellement beaucoup de temps à sécher mes cheveux, même s’ils sont courts, simplement parce que j’ai beaucoup de masse. Gagner un peu de temps le matin, c’est toujours bienvenu!
  • Un autre point dont j’aimerais faire mention, c’est que j’ai un gros problème avec les frisottis. Chaque fois que j’utilise un sèche-cheveux qui est un peu trop agressif sur les cheveux, je me retrouve avec des tonnes de petits cheveux qui rebiffent et frisent. C’est agaçant. Je dois dire que le Dyson Supersonic m’a aidée à cet égard, et je peux maintenant éviter les frisottis.
  • J’ai également constaté que le fait que l’appareil reste froid a été utile pour mon problème de cuir chevelu à tendance grasse : mon cuir chevelu regraisse moins vite quand je sèche mes cheveux avec le Dyson Supersonic qu’avec un sèche-cheveux classique.

Les moins

  • Ce que j’ai peut-être moins aimé chez cet appareil, c’est qu’il ne me semble pas très ergonomique. En fait, il m’arrive de regretter le genre de “grip” que l’on retrouve sur la plupart des sèche-cheveux. C’est pourquoi je fais toujours très attention quand je l’utilise, car je crains de le laisser tomber.
  • Aussi, au début, j’ai pensé que les boutons auraient pu être positionnés différemment, parce que je les trouvais difficiles à naviguer tout en utilisant le sèche-cheveux. Toutefois, je me suis rendu compte que je devais changer ma façon de le tenir, en le tenant plus haut, et tout va mieux maintenant!
  • Mon dernier point concerne son prix. 449 CHF peut certainement être un prix prohibitif pour un appareil d’usage courant tel qu’un sèche-cheveux. En même temps, c’est un concentré de technologie, beaucoup de recherches ont été mises en œuvre pour élaborer ce produit. Cela explique du moins partiellement son prix élevé. Je suppose donc que c’est à chacun de décider s’il/elle veut dépenser cette somme pour un sèche-cheveux. Personnellement, je le considérais comme un investissement, espérant qu’il tiendrait plus longtemps que les sèche-cheveux moins chers que j’ai eus jusqu’à présent. De plus, c’était un cadeau pour notre nouvel appartement, donc nous nous sommes fait plaisir pour l’occasion.

En résumé

Nicolas et moi sommes tous les deux très satisfaits de ce produit et ne regrettons pas en avoir fait l’acquisition. Bien sûr, nous ne pouvons pas encore nous prononcer sur la durabilité du produit, car nous ne l’avons que depuis quelques mois. Néanmoins, c’est un produit que nous apprécions beaucoup au quotidien et nous le trouvons tous les deux très efficace et nous avons même l’impression qu’il rend nos cheveux encore plus brillants qu’avant.
