When the Dyson Airwrap launched in 2018, it created a hair tool phenomenon that has seen brands try to recreate the innovative styler in their own image. Revolution have launched the ‘hair wrap’, while there’s also a popular BaByliss styler and £30 Revlon dupe, but none of them have held a candle to the Dyson, really.
That is until the Shark Flexstyle came along in early Autumn, becoming the closest rival for the Airwrap for £200 less. Dyson’s coveted device comes in at £499.99, while Shark’s version is priced at £399.99 - but are either of them actually any good?
To help you work out where best to spend your money this Christmas, I’ve tested out both of the top-rated air stylers and there’s one for me that wins hands down.
