Dyson Air Wrap is by far the most universal styling tool for perfect blowouts and bouncy waves. But, sometimes, all you want is a soft wave with no pinning and setting fuss that takes ages to make. Well, it seems today is your lucky day because we have a secret hair styling hack to share. And yes, you’ll need your Dyson to pull off the trick.
Content creator and long-haired beauty Charlotte Gosnold goes viral for her smart Dyson Air Wrap hack that makes your tresses look like you’ve been using a hair waver. Unlike other hair styling techniques, this one is simple and quick enough to save your day with a last-minute hairstyle. So, what are you waiting for? Grab your hair styler and try this hack right now!
For this styling trick, you’ll need your favorite Dyson Airwrap curling barrel and a claw clip. Apply a heat protectant and your favorite styling products first. Then, section off the hair strand you’re about to style. And now for the fun part – use your claw clip to clamp your strand to the barrel.
Turn on the heat and wait a couple of seconds. Release the clip, and you’ll see the dent from the round barrel on your hair. Repeat the process several times by moving from the roots all the way to the ends until you see a beautiful wave forming in its wake.
Pro Tip: Don’t use a metallic clip as it may get very hot and eventually burn you. Plastic clips work best, but make sure you start on low heat to control the styling process.
To get that perfect wave, take a small section at a time. This will give more definition and texture to your wavy look. Need to keep your waves popping all day long? Then, mist some hairspray onto your tresses before heading out. On hot and sunny days, don’t forget to follow summer beauty tips to protect your hair and scalp from heat damage.
The hair community is already buzzing over this hair styling trick. “That’s so cute! I have a crimper and I feel like they’re too close together cause the 3 rods…I’ll have to try this so it looks more spaced out,” one comment says. “This might be the smartest idea I’ve ever seen,” another person shares.
With this Dyson styling hack, you can now create a soft beachy look without spending too much time in front of the mirror. And that’s exactly what your hair needs on these hot summer days!
