Dyson Airwrap Straightening: What It Can (and Can’t) Do

Can you straighten your hair with Dyson Airwrap Multi-Styler?

Yes—Dyson Airwrap Multi-Styler can straighten hair, but it’s best described as a smoothing-and-straightening tool rather than a traditional flat iron. With the right attachment and technique, it can take hair from wavy or frizzy to sleek, polished, and visibly straighter while using controlled airflow and lower heat than many hot tools.

How the Airwrap straightens hair

To get a straighter finish, most people rely on the smoothing brushes (soft or firm) and/or a smoothing dryer attachment, depending on the kit. These attachments use airflow to align strands and reduce frizz while you brush through sections. Results tend to look like a fresh blowout: smooth, straight-leaning, and airy—especially on fine to medium textures.

What results to expect by hair type

If hair is already mostly straight or only slightly wavy, the Airwrap can deliver a clean, straight style with natural movement. On thicker, coarse, or very curly hair, it can still smooth dramatically, but it may not create a pin-straight, “pressed” finish without additional tools. For those hair types, straightening with the Airwrap often looks like a blowout straight—sleek and elongated, with some body.

Tips for a straighter, smoother finish

Start on damp (not dripping) hair so the brush can shape it as it dries. Work in smaller sections for better tension and smoother roots. Use slower passes from root to ends, keeping the brush engaged with the hair for control. Finish with a cool shot to help set the style and reduce flyaways.

FAQ

Does Dyson Airwrap work on curly hair for smoothing?

It can smooth curly hair significantly, especially when used on damp hair in smaller sections with steady tension. The finish is typically a blowout-straight look rather than a flat-iron sleek result, depending on curl pattern and density.
