Air stylers are being sold as a one-size-fits-all solution for 'healthy curls' — but that's just not accurate, says major haircare brand founder

Air stylers are very much the hot hair tool of the moment. When Dyson's first Airwrap hit the shelves in 2018, it felt like we were immediately hooked. We watched, entranced, as this wand-shaped styler grabbed a limp piece of hair, span it around, and left a perfect curl in its wake. And all without any extreme heat? It felt too good to be true.

The more watched women use this device on social, the more I saw women being very, very upset that they spent $600 on a device that created a curl for maybe a minute.
