The plates gilded effortlessly through my hair, ensuring a snag-free and damage-free styling experience.
Now, lets get real about the results.
It did an impressive job of taming my frizz and reducing unwanted curls.
However, there were a couple of trade-offs to consider.

Overall, I found that the Dyson Airstrait delivered satisfactory results.
I expected it to be straight, but notthatstraight.
Since then, Ive tried it on dry hair and really love the final result.
My hairs a lot smoother and more pin-straight than it would be after a regular blow-dryer touch-up.
