Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Shark FlexStyle is a well-made, sleek-looking hairdryer that dries hair quickly. We needed a second hairdryer for traveling. I knew I wanted a Shark because we purchased a Shark hairdryer last year and liked it. The shape of the FlexStyle caught my eye because you can position the hairdryer in wand mode (straight) for packing between stacks of clothing in a suitcase. It has three temperature and airflow settings. The lowest settings of both produce enough airflow and warmth to quickly dry and style my hair. The attachments packaged with the FlexStyle are well-suited for long, fine hair, and they are easy to attach and remove. At first, I was a little concerned that the oval brush attachment might pull or tangle my hair, but it is surprisingly gentle. Using the curling attachments, you really can produce soft, beachy waves. The instructions include QR codes that link to how-to videos that can help you get started. For me, the FlexStyle does have a few minor cons. It’s a little heavier than I expected, and its sturdy cord adds to its weight. Because the air intake is on the handle, I have caught myself putting my hand over it. The medium and high air speeds produce a high-pitched sound that frightens my cats. Overall, The Shark FlexStyle is a quality hairdryer that comes with useful attachments.

I wanted to love this product and waited months for it to go on sale. Unfortunately, it left my hair really frizzy and not smooth at all.

This does an awful job. Does not hold a curl, and it is hard to get it to “wrap,” even when using extremely small sections. Also, it overheats every time I use it and shuts down before I am even halfway through.

I will start by saying I havr always been quite hair challanged. When I saw this mti styler (at 1/3 if the cost no less) I was intrigued. I have longed for a tool that made made styling my hair easier. This tool has made doing something with my hair much easier. This styler includes two 1.25" air wrap curlers; one to wrap left and one to wrap right, an oval brush, a paddle brush, styling concentrator and the styling base that folds into a micro hair dryer. One great thing about this multi-styler is that it is super lightweight and versatile. This would be great as a travel hairdryer! The biggest downside is that it doesnt come with any kind of carrying bag or case. I have always loved my hair curly, but have never been able to do it myself. If I could manage to do it, it always took hours and ended up looking like Shirley Temple. The air wrap tools made it simple and achieved the look i was going for. The upside is that you dry your hair while styling it. This make styling more time efficient. I also have very fine hair which often droops immediately; I seemed to get more longevity out of my curls. One con is that you have to turn the styler on and off each curl you do. The buttons are not easy to find by feel so I'd often turn the fan or heat down instead. There is also a bit of a learning curve in getting the hair to wrap more neatly around the styler. This styler does not cause any heat damage as it is always regulating heat to ensure not to get too warm. It has 3 heat settings and a cool shot button in addition to 3 fan speeds. One of the coolest features is how it folds/flips into a mini hair dryer. This sets this styler far apart from the competition. In addition this offers a paddle brush. I was able to use this feature to dry my hair while making it straight and smooth. The oval brush adds more volume while drying while the consentrator helps focus the air to one area while drying. All in all this is a great tool to have.

Not ergonomic. Heavy for the wrist. Not for textured hair. It does dry hair fast but not worth the hype.

Stopped working after literally ONE use. After doing some googling to see if others had the same problem.. I don’t know how this product is still sold. Countless reviews and feedback about how they eventually just stop turning on. Shark will replace it but you have to send them a video Of you cutting the wire before they’ll send a replacement. Seems like a hassle. I returned it, save the money for the Dyson

Definitely not the best brush/blow dryer combo. Honestly my revlon does a better job.

My shark has now shorted out and has over heated twice. It does the job but I would probably just save more money and go for the Dyson air wrap.

If you don't know about the trouble with styling Asian hair, I have two words: thick and straight. Before I go on about some minor issues, there are multiple great things about the Shark FlexStyle to write home about. First is the versatility of the styles you get from the attachment. No more lugging five different devices to get the different styles. You can easily change from a standard hair dryer to getting curls, waves, straightening, and adding volume to your hair. Out of the box, it was easy to figure out how to use the Flexstyle without even looking at the instructions. Though the styling guide that comes with it is a nice touch and definitely something I want to keep at hand for some tips and recommended settings. Like most people, drying my hair is my least favorite thing to do. And let's be honest, even with the Flexstyle, it is still my least favorite thing to do, but it allows me to finish much faster. And you can easily switch between the different attachments pretty easily. Just twist the styler upright from the 90-degree angle, and you're good to go. Of course, my favorite has to be the oval brush which gives my hair a little volume. With that said, the ones that were my least favorite were the auto-wrap curlers. Not because it wasn't functioning well; it did. But it wasn't for my hair. With Asian hair that's super straight and thick, it takes a lot for even a regular curling iron to get it to maintain its curls. So, in this case, it was an actual case of it's not you, it's me. At least this time, I'm not burning myself with a hot metal styler. One other note, the Flexstyle is a little louder than my hairdryer, partly due to all its power and air flowing from the narrow base. But, again, not a big issue compared to all the functions you get for half the cost of other competitors. Overall, for the cost and its multiple functionalities - it's a pretty great deal, and I would recommend it to anyone.

too loud but I lost my receipt :/ too loud it makes my head hurt

I didn’t like the way it styled my hair It’s meant for hair past the shoulders

The hairdryer worked well. But the curls fell out after five minutes. It didn’t curl your hair the way it said it would.

The store got $100 sale after I purchased but they didn’t give to me price matching.

THE BREAKDOWN: The Shark FlexStyle is a great all-in-one styler/dryer that does not cause heat damage to your hair. Being able to just flip from styling to drying is a breeze and saves you time. What’s in the box: in the box you get the Shark FlexStyle Air Drying and Styling system, oval brush, paddle brush, 2 1.25’ Auto-wrap curlers, styling concentrator, Styling guide and safety/warranty information. To access the regular hair drying feature, you rotate the top-third of the barrel so that it goes at a right angle to the handle. While it can replace a lot of your hair tools it is a still a pretty bulky package. The main barrel is 11.5 inches long before you put on any attachments. The longest attachment is the Auto-Wrap curler which is 6 inches. The power cables seem thick and long around 8 feet. So, with all of this it still takes up a lot of room in a drawer but at least you don’t have to add a hair dryer to that as well. The barrel felt really comfortable in your hand and easy to handle. To use the attachments, you snap them in place on the barrel and they lock in. There is another switch on the back to release the attachment. The third switch is on the bottom which turns the unit on and off. There are also three buttons. One to control cool air, one the controls air flow and one that controls the temperature. My wife and teenage girls loved the performance of this device. They believed that it dried a good constant temperature consistently. Shark states that the device measures and regulates temperatures 1,00 times per second to ensure consistent air temperature. They did state the curlers were a little difficult to use at first, but they figured out how they like to use. They have used this to keep their hair straight and curly and it really did add volume. There is also 4 heat and 3 airflow settings. PRO’s: - Multi-tool - No heat damage - Easy to use and feels great in the hand even my teenager daughters found it easy to use CON’s: - No bag to carry all the parts in. SUMMARY: Overall, this product worked as intended, and I would recommend this to a friend if they were in the market for a device like this.

Definitely was not impressed with this. Returned it after a day. It tangled my hair trying to curl, and the curls I did get, lasted maybe an hour.

Curls don’t hold for very long & the round brush attachment is too big to get that perfect blow out. I definitely felt like this took way longer than a traditional curler/flat iron.

not good all day with a puffy hair and I have fine hair and not work for me at all

very good quality recommended!! very good quality recommended!! very good quality recommended!!

Used 4 times & no longer works, you would expect something for this price to last a long time. Very unhappy with my purchase

I personally felt that the wand i got from tj maxx for 30 bucks did better job then this with my curly hair I like the hair wrap wand but only one works with the hair after its completely straightened and wont last long few min after the effect is gone .. i wanted to love this so bad but unfortunately not for me
