10 of the Best Dyson Airwrap Dupes That'll Guarantee Good Hair Days

Your hair and bank account will thank you for using these tools.

Headshot of Samantha OlsonBy Samantha Olson

Have you ever seen someone with such a stunning hairstyle that you just had to say something to them? Chances are they responded to the compliment with "Thanks! I owe my life to the Dyson Airwrap." This exact scenario has happened to me so many times, dear reader, that I eventually fell down a TikTok rabbit hole and watched people with all kinds of hair types use the viral beauty tool.

The Dyson Airwrap has quickly risen to cult-classic status thanks to its revolutionary heated air technology that dries and styles your hair at the same time (and, if you have as much hair as I do, you know how precious time is used on styling alone). The tool also comes with six different attachments to achieve any kind of hairstyle you want. Want a bombshell blowout for your graduation party? Pop on the round brush attachment and see results in minutes. If you want bouncy curls for your prom updo, the Airwrap has two different-sized barrels to pull together tight ringlets or loose waves.

While the tool is amazing and totally worth the hype, it comes with a high-end price tag of $600. If you're saving up for college or have taken on a summer job to buy your first car, dropping $$$ on a hair tool may not be feasible — that's where the best Dyson Airwrap dupes come in. The reviews are in (including some of my own), and there are a few lookalikes out there that are just as amazing as the OG Airwrap. Ahead, find the best Dyson Airwrap dupes that are pretty close to the real thing.

Pros
  • Includes different styling attachments
  • Simultaneously dries and styles hair
  • Reduces heat damage by using hot air
Cons
  • Higher price point

There's a reason the original Dyson Airwrap is a bestseller that has more than 5 billion (!) views and counting on TikTok. Though it has a higher price point, the beauty tool is beloved by celeb hairstylists, magazine editors (it's me, hi), and beauty girlies alike because it uses air and minimal heat to dry and style your hair at the same time.

Ofc, it includes three adjustable speed and heat settings, a storage case, and six attachments to help you quickly achieve any hairstyle: two different-sized curling barrels, a smoothing dryer head, a firm brush, a soft brush, and a round brush.

User review: "The Dyson Airwrap (as part of this set) is undoubtedly the best technological invention for hair in the past 25 years," one user raves. "It is fast, it is easy (so easy I have no idea why people keep saying it is not!) and it is fast, and makes my hair look super full. It is amazing for curls. And, I have no trouble getting it to hold my curls. Not sure why people keep saying that either."

Best Overall Dupe

Shark Beauty FlexStyle™ Hair Blow Dryer & Multi-Styler

Pros
  • Includes different styling attachments
  • Simultaneously dries and styles hair
  • Can bend/readjust handle
Cons
  • Only has one barrel size

As a curly girly, I rarely blow out my hair because it tends to fall and not last long. When I do want to switch up my look, I reach for Shark's FlexStyle because it's easy to use and divides my blowout time in half. My thick and long curly hair typically takes nearly 3 hours (!) to blow out into a straight look, but this baby helps me get the job done in a little less than one hour. And, if I'm rocking my natural hair, the diffuser setting on the FlexStyle is just as quick and easy to use.

User review: "I am thoroughly pleased with how fast my hair blew dry and I have curly hair," one reviewer raves. "From start to finish, it only took 25 minutes with the wide-tooth comb attachment (sold separately)! If you are debating, GET IT! It’s so easy to use and is very powerful!"

Best for Bangs

ghd Rise Hot Brush

Pros
  • Heats up in 25 seconds
  • Simultaneously dries and styles hair
Cons
  • May tangle hair

I, like many others, have spent so much time attempting Sabrina Carpenter-inspired curtain bangs at home — and lucky for us, ghd's Rise Hot Brush achieves that exact look. While it only has one attachment, this tool strays away from the typical curling iron with its built-in teeth that get super close to the root without damaging your scalp and baby hairs. Because the barrel is so narrow, the Rise Hot Brush is perfect for blowing out small sections of hair, like curtain bangs.

User review: "This is different than a traditional curling iron with a clamp. It's a little more versatile since you can use it to style your hair in different ways besides curls," one reviewer says. "You just have to make sure your hair is really smooth and brushed out before using it or it MAY get tangled! But I still prefer this instead of a curling iron or wand."

Pros
  • Simultaneously dries and styles hair
  • Includes different styling attachments
  • Includes heat-resistant glove
Cons
  • Doesn't have as many attachments as Airwrap

Ion's Autowrap Airstyler may appear like a regular hairdryer, but it actually has four styling attachments including two curling barrels, a diffuser, and a concentrator. There's also a heat-resistant finger glove to protect your precious hands from being burnt by the heat generated by ultra-fast airflow, which saves so much time by drying and styling your hair at the same time.

User review: "It took me a few tries to get the hang of it but once I did I absolutely love this blow dryer curl option! I have long medium-thick hair and the curl lasted the majority of the day and even the next day in the Florida heat!" a 5-star reviewer wrote. "These pics were my first time using it and I didn’t use any product so next time I’ll try using a mousse or something to see how much longer it lasts. Highly recommend!"

Drybar The Half Shot Small Round Blow Dryer Brush

Pros
  • Dries and styles hair at the same time
  • Not as loud as other dryers
Cons
  • Doesn't have as many attachments as Airwrap

If you're looking for a frizz-free blowout, then Drybar's Half Shot Small Round Blow Dryer Brush is your new BFF. This tool comes in the brand's signature bright yellow colorway and is super easy to use. The ionic technology adds shine to your tresses without any other styling products while its nylon and tufted bristles detangle while defining your hair for a tamed, detailed style.

User review: "I absolutely love this blow dry brush! I have wavy hair that goes a few inches past my shoulders. It worked well to try my hair while being able to style it at the same time," one review reads. "My hair was less frizzy and smoother than if I use a regular blow dryer or air dry. It didn’t get too hot like other tools I’ve used either. Overall, I’d definitely recommend this one!"

Best for Short Hair

L'ange Le Duo 360 Airflow Styler

Pros
  • Heats up quickly
  • Lightweight
  • Automatic sleep mode after 60 minutes of non-use
  • Less than $100
Cons
  • Less styling options

L'ange's Le Duo 360 Airflow Styler is compact, which makes it easy to grip as you style. This bad boy is basically a hair straightener and curling wand in one, which means you can create a sleek straight look or bouncy curls. Like the Airwrap, the Airflow Styler uses tiny air vents that cool on contact to lock in your style, and it even features a clip to hold strands in place while you work. This makes it a breeze to do your hair quickly, and some reviewers note that the tool easily reaches tough spots — especially for shorter styles.

User review: "I am not someone who is skilled with hair tools, but this tool makes me feel like a pro," writes one Ulta reviewer. "I have only used [it] once, but I was able to easily do some nice beach waves. I have quite a bit of hair, and was able to finish in about 15 min."

Pros
  • Includes different styling attachments
  • Less than $100
Cons
  • Only available on one retailer

Looking to get some bang for your buck? Lux Skin's ProStyler is 1/8th the price of the OG Airwrap, and it has just as many styling attachments. With an air-drying brush, straightening comb, round comb, air-drying head, and two curling barrels with left and right airflow, this bad boy is a pretty solid dupe for the Airwrap with a significantly more affordable price tag.

User review: "I naturally have very frizzy curly hair. I’ve always craved the sleek blow-dry look but never had the skills, time, or patience to achieve it at home," one review reads. "This device, however, has totally changed that - gives me sleek, blow-dried waves in minutes. It’s super easy to use, doesn’t get too hot (and doesn’t feel like it’s damaging my hair), and looks super natural. Cannot recommend this enough 🤩🤩"

Best for Thick Hair

Drybar Reserve 3-in-1 Interchangeable Blow-Dryer

Pros
  • Includes different styling attachments
  • Adds volume
  • Lightweight
Cons
  • Doesn't have as many attachments as Airwrap

If you have a lot of thick hair like me, consider Drybar's 3-in-1 Interchangeable Blow-Dryer your new holy grail. This bad boy comes with three separate attachments — a blow-dryer, an oval brush, and a paddle brush — for versatile looks, even with the thickest hair. Reviews rave about how lightweight this dryer is, and some even claim that it shortens drying and styling time thanks to its user-friendly design.

User review: "[The] versatility of this tool is so impressive!! The blow dry end is my favorite by far - I have really thick curly hair and this tool dried my hair soooo quickly," a Sephora reviewer said. "The roundbrush reminded me a lot of the Drybar double shot but it had more temperature settings that allowed for more control! I also like that the flat iron brush did not make my hair look stick - like on the ends and it still gave a smooth finish!"

T3 AireBrush Duo Interchangeable Hot Air Blow Dry Brush

Pros
  • Dries and styles hair at same time
  • Includes round brush and paddle brush
  • Includes cool setting
Cons
  • Doesn't have as many attachments as Airwrap

Okay, so this tool may not have six interchangeable attachments, but that doesn't mean you should count it out. The T3 AireBrush does include a paddle brush for sleek and straight looks and a round brush for voluminous, va-va-voom blowouts. Each brush is made with plastic and nylon bristles that gently style textured hair without all the painful tugging. This bb can also be used as a standard high-power hairdryer when the attachments are removed.

User review: "I love this comb dryer! I have natural Afro-textured hair. This thing gave me the straightest blowout I’ve ever had," one Sephora reviewer wrote. "All I did was put my hair into six sections…two in the back and four in the front. I took my time and used the paddle brush attachment. It took about 15 to 20 minutes."

Atopskins 6-in-1 Hot Air Brush

Pros
  • Includes different styling attachments
  • Includes heat-resistant glove
  • Less than $100
Cons
  • Users say you can only grab small pieces of hair at a time

Once a product goes viral, you can always count on Amazon to be stocked with dupes — it's just the name of the game. For $70, this 6-in-1 Hot Air Brush from Atopskins has v similar attachments to the beloved Airwrap, including a hair dryer, a straightening brush, a round brush, a massage hot air brush, and two rotating curling barrels. The air pressure may not be as strong as the OG Airwrap, but this budget-friendly option gets the job done for a fraction of the price.

User review: "Ok. So …it clearly isn’t the air wrap but it also is a fraction of the cost. So far I’m happy. I took it out of the box tonight and tried the curling feature. It took some getting used to," one 5-star review reads. "I think it works better starting about an inch or two from the end and wrapping it from there. But the result is great and definitely easier than blow drying and then curling. Hopefully it will last a while considering it isn’t the highest quality but I don’t do my hair every day and the price seems worth it."
