ENGINEERED FOR FAST DRYING
I’m kicking myself for not taking the plunge and buying the Dyson Supersonic ($599) when it was launched two years ago – imagine the time I would have saved on hair-drying.
I adored its sleek, modern design, but I wasn’t sure about parting with good money just for aesthetic pleasure. That is, until I recently had the chance to see the efforts that its team of engineers took to understand the science of hair.
Here’s what I also learnt about the “reinvented” dryer: The Supersonic promises not to overheat and damage hair. This is thanks to a smart thermal sensor, which measures the temperature 20 times every second and keeps it under control.
It’s safe to let your child handle it because the surface always remains cool, no matter how hot the dryer gets. It’s more lightweight than conventional bulky dryers, as well.
What’s most impressive, though, was how it cuts drying time significantly. Its digital motor works in combination with its patented Air Amplifier technology to produce a high velocity jet and volume of air.
