It’s a scenario that’s very familiar: you walk out of the hair salon with a hairdo that makes you feel and look like you’ve stepped off the cover of a glossy fashion magazine. But one wash at home later and all style has flown out the window.
Often, it’s a case of not having the right tools to help you sculpt that sleek look and maintain it too. So, it’s a good idea to turn to a leading brand for some good products to help you tame that mane. Currently the Shark FlexFusion Multi Hot Air Styler, Hair Dryer & Ceramic Straightener with 5 Styling Attachments is reduced on Amazon to £281.67, a whopping 24% discount down from £369.99.
With that, you get enough gadgets to help you try out every style you can imagine. Think of it as having your own mobile hair salon at home. You can style wet hair with no heat damage or give your dry hair a quick run-through to perk it up. Thanks to some very fancy FlexFusion styling technology, you can go from wet to dry with no concerns about damaging your locks.

You’ll also get two auto-wrap curling attachments that curl your hair in seconds, a styling concentrator nozzle, and a curl-defining diffuser to lift any natural kink or curl in your hair.
But the mane, ahem or main, attractions are the wet-or-dry fusion air straightener and the wet-or-dry fusion brush, so effectively a set of straighteners and a drying and styling brush, as well as the fact it will also blow dry your hair if you pop on the styling concentrator nozzle.
So far it has a 4.3-star average rating on Amazon, with one happy reviewer saying: “Well worth the money. I now have hair to be proud of.” Someone else said: “It’s such a powerful dryer, still trying to get better in using but blow-drying brush – amazing, air-drying straightener – amazing, curling ends – still trying to know how to use them . But so far highly recommend. I think Dyson is overhyped and overpriced.”
A third person said: “According to my partner, this is the best styler ever. She has thick, curly, frizzy hair and used the round brush for around 10 minutes on damp hair and she was very impressed with the results. The curling wands will take a bit of practice but can already see how well they work.”
Others ran into issues, like one person who said: “The only negative is it becomes quite heavy when you add the straightening accessory.”
There is no shortage of options around: You can look at something super pricey like the Dyson kit, which is £479.99, or you can opt for a super budget option, like the Zen.Ten 5 in 1 Air Wrap Styler at Debenhams, for £79.95. There are also alternatives from Shark itself, like the Shark FlexStyle & SmoothStyle Bundle for £359.98.
