    I have curly hair, and the Shark FlexStyle works really well for me. It dries my hair quickly without making it frizzy and gives me smooth, defined curls. The attachments are easy to use and switch out, and it’s nice that I can style straight or wavy looks too (though I've gone full curly and no longer need them). I bought the diffuser separately, but I found the Shark diffuser a bit heavy, so I ended up getting a lighter one from another brand that fits better for longer drying sessions. The dryer itself feels lightweight, powerful, and well made. The stone color looks sleek, and it’s a great alternative to more expensive models. Pros: Fast drying, great for curls, easy styling options Cons: Shark diffuser is heavy, can be a little loud

    I’ve had two of these now and it does a good job styling but the product is so cheap. I had my previous one for a year and got fed up with the parts coming loose so I used my heel squad warranty and swapped it out. After one use the new one had a part come loose again. This causes the product to rattle back and forth while you’re using it. Planning on returning this week. Honestly, just invest in the Dyson if you’re going to spend the money or know that you’re getting a cheap product

    There are different kinds of hair and products for styling each of them, the cost to have a product for each type of hair style would be very expensive, however this hair dryer, which is priced quite competitively and I could even say below the competition, allows you to get virtually any type of style that is to your liking and according to the type of hair you have. The first thing you ask is if this product is worth the price and knowing that there are other options out there with similar features, the honest answer I can give is, it is definitely worth every penny, it is a hair dryer that offers much more than just drying your hair, which by the way compared to an ordinary dryer is much more effective. The design besides being very aesthetic and elegant, is made in a way that is very simple and easy to use, a function that I really like is that you press a button to rotate the top of the dryer to have a better angle and grip when drying, I was fascinated. The motor blows out enough air in three levels to dry your hair in a short time. In terms of heat it also has three levels but with the first two you can style your hair very well because it generates enough heat and this added to the fact that it blows out the air strongly, makes it unnecessary to use the maximum heat level. Before styling the hair it is recommended to use some product to protect the hair from the heat, this varies from person to person, however we must not forget that we are exposing our hair to heat. The performance is great, each of the ways the aceseories can be use, I get a excellent result, it takes time but it is worh it. It is possible to straighten the hair and curl it if desired, give volume or if you have curly hair you can also get many styles. There are video guides on the Shark Beauty Youtube channel that shows you how to use the accessories in the best way and get the best out of them, I find them very useful. It is a product that, when you consider the price on the market for similar products that have an outstanding performance, exceeds expectations by far. Each of the accesories fit together without a problem, it is easy to use, it is comfortable and one thing that I like is that it has a button that when you hold it down when using hot air, it blows out cold air which is very helpful in some cases.The hair dryer is kind of loud similar to most common hair dryers. In summary, I can say that there are a countless number of hairstyles that can be achieved with this hair dryer, similar results to those of a beauty salon. It has a very elegant design, includes accessories quite useful and the best thing is not expensive, if you do not want to spend on high end brand products, this Shark FlexStyle is a great option, highly recommended.

    The shark did not work like all of the videos and like I anticipated. I was so excited to get the shark and it truly disappointed me. Giving them the benefit of the doubt, I could have been doing something wrong, sure! BUT with the amount of money we pay for this item, then it should either WORK or the instructions should be worth over $300. I tried doing my hair 5 times, and it never actually held. I tried my cousins African American hair and it did great, but then poofed back up by morning! Just buy a revlon. Please don’t waste your money.

    AMAZING HAIR STYLING & DRYING SYSTEM

    |
    Tech Insider Network Member
    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    There are two similar hair styling systems that have become extremely popular. A very significant differentiator, however, is that one brand is less than half the price of the other. The Shark FlexStyle Air Drying & Styling System is an incredible comparative bargain. We own several Shark appliances and have a genuine appreciation of those excellent products with their impressive performance. It was therefore an easy decision to select the Shark FlexStyle. The Shark FlexStyle (Model HD430) includes the Multi-Styling Tool, which is the core of the system to which the accessories attach for use. This power unit provides four heat settings (No Heat, Low, Medium, High), plus “Cool Shot” (No Heat while button is depressed and held) and three airflow settings (Low, Medium, High). Each of those setting levels are annunciated by small LED lamps above the Temperature Button and the Airflow Button. With a twist of the articulating barrel, it converts from a hair styling wand into a hair-blower / hairdryer. Accessory attachments include two 1 ¼” Auto-Wrap Curlers which wrap hair around them using the FlexStyle airflow. These curlers use Coanda Technology to wrap, curl and set hair. The Coanda Effect refers to an aerodynamic characteristic whereby a fast-moving jet of air “attaches” to a surface. The high velocity airflow of the FlexStyle effectively wraps hair around the curlers and maintains tension on the hair to develop a tight and even wrap. The curlers are directionally oriented, with one used for clockwise wraps and the other used for counterclockwise wraps (marked marked Left and Right, including directional arrows showing the airflow direction). Also included are two air styling brush attachments comprised of an oval brush with both smoothing bristles on the edges and detangling bristles in the center, and a paddle brush, which also has both smoothing and detangling bristles, for use in smoothing, straightening and volumizing hair. The final attachment in this package is a concentrator, for directing and concentrating the powerful airflow of the Shark FlexStyle when using it as a conventional hair-blower / dryer. All attachments securely anchor in place using a small rotation which interlocks the plastic cam pins and latches with an audible click. Attachments are quickly and easily released by the sliding Lock button. Shark also offers an optional Curl-Defining Diffuser which is sold separately for drying curly and wavy hair and enhancing curls and waves. Since hairstyles change and people choose to modify their hairstyles, the Curl Defining Diffuser should be included with the FlexStyle system. The system really should be complete and include everything necessary for user flexibility and choice, including the Diffuser. I am confident that my wife is just one of many users who really want and need the Diffuser attachment. It would also be nice if there was a case included for both storage and travel with the Shark FlexStyle System because this is quite an extensive collection of implements. The FlexStyle components really should not simply be stored loose in a drawer or cabinet, and when travelling it could be a challenge to pack the FlexStyle in a manner that prevents possible damage. If you plan on styling a shorter hair style or bangs, note that both of the Brush attachments are large. The Oval Brush measures 3 ¼” across the narrow aspect, and 3 7/8” on the wide aspect. The Paddle Brush measures 3 ½” across the bristles. My wife’s conventional, round styling brush is only 1 ¾” in diameter. It would be nice if a smaller diameter brush were included for users with short styles or bangs . The FlexStyle Multi-Styling Tool is 11 3/16” overall in the straight configuration for use with the curlers and brush attachments, which increase the overall length to about 17 ¼”. The Multi-Styling Tool weighs only 14.1 ounces (400 grams), without attachments. About 1/3 (3”-4”) below the top of the Multi-Styling Tool is an articulating joint which through an easy twist of the tool converts the straight tool into a 90° right angle tool for use with the concentrator attachment for hair-blowing / drying. The rotating hinge is locked in place until released with the Hinge Latch button immediately below the hinge. The FlexStyle Multi-Styling Tool is equipped with an exceptionally long power cord, spanning 9’. The cord is equipped with a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) for user safety (as required by law), and is apparently also protected by a fusible link. All of the connections on the power cord are equipped with robust strain relief, and at the base of the Multi-Styling Tool, the strain relief is angled and rotates freely so that the power cord is never a nuisance which impedes the use of the FlexStyle and the power cord is not likely to become twisted or tangled during use. The maximum wattage of the FlexStyle is 1300 watts, which equates to a 10.8 amp electrical load. Clearly, the Shark FlexStyle system replaces several hair styling implements and appliances, with an elegant, flexible, versatile and efficient all-in-one hair styling solution. A very significant benefit of the Shark FlexStyle is that it virtually eliminates the likelihood of damaging hair due to excessive heat, according to the manufacturer. The FlexStyle is designed to precisely monitor and regulate temperature by measuring and adjusting temperature 1,000 times per second. The FlexStyle accurately maintains temperature that is consistent, rather than widely fluctuating which can result in hair being exposed to excessively high temperatures and incurring damage, I measured the FlexStyle output at 7” from the nozzle. On the Low setting the temperature was approximately 140° F, on the Medium setting it was approximately 160° F and on the High setting the temperature measured approximately 180° F. The air velocity discharged by the FlexStyle is strong. Of course, the unit produces noise when in operation, but even at the High speed airflow setting, the motor noise of the FlexStyle was not uncomfortably loud, as some other hair-blowers typically are. My wife has used a great many hair styling tools and appliances throughout the years. She was very anxious to start using the Shark FlexStyle to determine if it would actually improve upon her hair styling tasks, reduce the effort and burden, and produce superior results. My wife reviewed the printed Shark FlexStyle Styling Guide which is included in the package, consulted the FAQs on the Shark website, and watched several Internet videos prior to using the FlexStyle for the first time. Mrs. Curmudgeon really loves the Shark FlexStyle. She has used each of the FlexStyle attachments in order to determine if the FlexStyle actually produces better results than she could achieve with her array of conventional hair styling implements, and to see if the FlexStyle would truly replace all of those individual, single-purpose tools. We are both very pleased with the results. Not only is she finding it to be easier and quicker to style her hair with the FlexStyle, but she genuinely prefers the results that she is achieving with the FlexStyle. The FlexStyle is excellent at producing curls of variable tightness without damaging her hair. Likewise, she found that, except for her bangs, both the oval brush attachment and paddle brush attachment performed their respective tasks better than when she formerly employed separate brushes and needed to use both hands (brush in one and blow-dryer in the other). This improved efficiency may likely be the result of the temperature controlled heated air being applied from inside the brush, rather than the conventional method. The FlexStyle appears to be well-built of high-quality plastic materials with a solid feel. The FlexStyle is comfortable and easy to use given the unit’s dimensions and light weight. My wife likes how comfortable and convenient it is to use the FlexStyle. The weight and balance are nice, and the control buttons for temperature and airflow are conveniently located on the handle. The only control button that is perhaps not in the most convenient location, especially for small hands, is the Cool Shot button, which is used to “set” curls and waves after using heated airflow. The distance between the Cool Shot button and the other controls ranges between 2 ½”: and 4”. My wife has found it to be a bit of a stretch to use that button, but has adapted her grip on the FlexStyle to facilitate the use of the Cool Shot button. This was just a very minor accommodation. Notably, the air intake for the powerful fan in the Multi-Styling Tool is at the base of the tool in the bottom 2” of the handle. It is important to avoid holding the implement in such a way that the user’s hand is obstructing the perforations for air intake, particularly since the control buttons are located in the bottom 2 ½”: of the handle. That perforated section of the handle covers a fine filter. The filter cover is removable and exposes the internal filter for cleaning with a toothbrush or other soft brush. The FlexStyle is covered by a 2-year warranty against manufacturer defects, however if Shark replaces the unit, a fee (disclosed in the printed warranty provisions included in the box) is assessed. Overall, we both think that the Shark FlexStyle Air Styling and Drying System is really great. It is a powerful blow-dryer for styling and hair drying. It is a flexible and innovative hair styling system which makes curling, smoothing, straightening and styling hair faster and easier than with the numerous separate, dedicated tools, and with nicer results. A big plus is eliminating the heat damage that is virtually impossible to avoid with conventional blow-dryers, curling wands and straightening irons. The Shark FlexStyle Air Styling and Drying System really does it all, does it easier and does it better!

    As a woman with thick, straight hair, it takes FOREVER to blow dry my hair completely with a tradition blow dryer. Around 30 to 45 minutes depending on how long I let it towel or air dry. After taking that much time to dry, I don’t really like to take the time to curl my hair or style it any other way than pulling it back into a pony tail. I was sold on this when it advertised fast drying power, the multi-styler options were a plus. Let me just say that after the first blow dry taking less than half the time that it normally takes that I was excited to try out the curlers. I was amazed at how quite the dryer was! I only dried to 90% as the guide suggested, held a section of hair out and watched as my hair wrapped around the curler automatically without having to twist. Hold for 10 seconds heat then 10 seconds cold blast then turn off and pull down. Pin up curls until done and cool. Easy! The other stylers are easy to use to straighten or provide extra volume. Three levels of temperatures with three levels of heat along with the stylers offer an all-in-one solution to create your unique style while saving time and not damaging your hair.

    For people who don’t want to read the whole review I will sum this up in one sentence. My wife absolutely loved it. One thing my wife hates after taking a shower is drying her hair because it takes forever, plus her long and thick don’t help either. She usually spends around 30 to 45 minutes drying her hair and then do whatever else she has to, and on top of that bring out all of her other gear to curl or to straighten, but not anymore. The Ninja FlexStyle has changed her life. In the box you will find the Shark FlexStyle, (2) 1.25” Auto-wrap curlers, Oval Brush, Paddle Brush and a Styling Concentrator. The Ninja FlexStyle is lightweight solution, weighing about 25 oz., for Air styling, Curling and Drying. Looking at its size, it does not look like much, but it will leave you pleasantly surprised. With just a simple twist of the top this wand turns into a powerful hair dryer that dries your hair in no time (Down to 10 to 15 minutes for my wife) heats up fast and no hair damage. Simply twist it back into a wand and use the provided accessories to curl your hair or add some volume with the paddle or the oval brushes. The FlexStyle has Three heat options, Cool air button, and 3 speeds that can all be adjusted based on your preference. The Styler is easy to operate and comes with a really long cord for added flexibility. The FlexStyle has replaced about 4 of my wife’s current hair accessories. Overall, this is a quality product that costs half the price of the other brand and works just as well if not better. The StyleFlex gets the job done in half the time and at half the price. If you want to save money and buy a good quality product, then I would definitely suggest that you check try this out.

    Roses are Red, Violets are blue. The Shark FlexStyle Air Styling & Drying System deserves a stellar review. Not only is it easy to use like gravy, it blow-dries with a powerful might to create a hairstyle stone straight and wavy. You will dance in your bathroom twirling, looking so fine. The best hairdryer in town that's worth every dime. A contraption so pleasant with all bite and no bark, no surprise this design is manufactured by Shark. Why use others that makes drying hair much harder, when you can own a FlexStyle whether you're experienced or a starter? Easy setup instructions so no need to cry, head on over a get one at your local BestBuy.
