If you want Dyson-level hair drying and styling without committing to Dyson-level pricing, you should be looking at Shark. The brand has high-quality hair tools that compete directly with Dyson's top-of-the-line products, but cost considerably less. And right now, with discounts up to 42% off, the gap between the two is even harder to ignore.

What makes Shark's tools stand out isn't just the prices — it's how directly they compare to Dyson's. Shark offers a multi-styler that mimics the coveted Airwrap and high-velocity dryers that can rival the Supersonic. In a lot of cases, you get similar attachments and performance — all with that far more approachable price tag.

If you've been wondering whether a premium hair tool is worth it, this is probably the easiest entry point you’ll get. All of these Shark tools are worth it at full price, but at these discounts, this is a great time to pull the trigger.
Shark FlexStyle Air Styling & Drying System 42% OFF
This multi-styler is Shark’s answer to the Dyson Airwrap, two 1.25-inch barrel curling wands, round and oval volumizing brush attachments and a concentrator. Without attachments, it works as a powerful hair dryer. In our testing, we found that it does everything the Airwrap does, for less than half the price.
Shark SpeedStyle Pro Professional Performance High-Velocity Hair Dryer System 27% OFF
A more affordable alternative to the Dyson Supersonic, this dryer uses high-velocity airflow and includes a scalp shield feature that helps regulate heat. In our testing, we found that it dries hair quickly and feels lightweight in hand, making it a strong everyday dryer without the premium price tag.
Shark Flex Fusion 30% OFF
This hybrid tool combines straightening, drying and styling functions into one system, with attachments including a fusion brush, concentrator and auto-wrap curlers. It's like getting a Dyson Airwrap and Airstraight in one tool.

Shark FlexStyle (Special Edition) 33% OFF
This version of the FlexStyle comes in a limited-edition copper color and includes auto-wrap curlers, a concentrator and a volumizing oval brush as attachments. Like the Dyson Airwrap, it offers multiple styling options without buying separate tools.
Shark HyperAir Ionic Hair Dryer 5% OFF
This earlier Shark dryer is made for fast drying with ionic technology. It includes a concentrator and a rotating hot air brush as attachments. During testing, we found that it beat all other hair dryers on the market at the time, cutting drying time in half while providing even temperature distribution and protecting hair from heat damage.
This newer tool combines a straightener with a blow dryer, designed to go from wet to styled hair in one step. It includes interchangeable comb attachments for different hair types and cuts down styling time significantly — for over $300 less than the Dyson Airstraight.
