The best Dyson airwrap complete dupes reduced for Black Friday, from Revlon to ghd

From Revlon’s TikTok-viral styler to a ghd hot brush, these alternatives rival the real deal

These hair tools will help you create a salon-quality look at home (The Independent)

Start your engines, Black Friday officially starts tomorrow – and one product that sale shoppers always seek (to no avail) is the coveted Dyson airwrap.

When it launched in 2018, Dyson’s multi-purpose hair tool rapidly rose to cult status among beauty buffs, thanks to its ability to blow dry and style hair simultaneously. Heralded for creating a salon-quality look at home, the airwrap’s second iteration – the multi-styler – had a lot to live up to.

Of course, it delivered – with our reviewer lauding it as even better than the original. “It feels like Dyson really has thought about every hair type, texture and length, and manufactured a product that’s as versatile and as inclusive as possible,” they said.

Priced at £479.99 (Boots), it’s certainly not cheap – and anyone hoping to see it discounted during Black Friday may be left disappointed, as Dyson typically doesn’t offer deals on its hair tools.

But if you’ve had your eye on the bestselling tool, we’ve got the next best thing. From Revlon’s TikTok-viral one-step styler to ghd hot brushes, there are plenty of dupes that rival the real thing. Plus, some of them are reduced in the early Black Friday sales. So, here’s our pick of the best Dyson airwrap dupes worth snapping up.

Revlon salon one-step hair dryer and volumiser: Was £63, now £30, Argos.co.uk

(Revlon)

One of the most popular products during Amazon’s latest Prime Day sale, you can save more than 50 per cent on Revlon’s viral Dyson airwrap dupe in the Argos Black Friday sale. In our review of the cult tool, our tester said: “Giving me a quick volume boost without the accompanying frizz, Revlon’s styler delivers just the right amount of oomph.” It also earned a spot in our round-up of hot brushes, where our writer praised its affordability and the volume it delivers, without getting too hot. “It’s a brilliant budget buy, despite being quite noisy, and is very easy to get to grips with.”

Earning a spot in our round-up of the best hot brushes, our tester said the tool is “great for adding a bit of body and bounce”. Shaped like a barrel, the 5mm cool-touch bristles are evenly spread out across the surface to comb through hair, leaving “locks smooth, with added volume and a loose curl”. A great alternative to Dyson’s airwrap, you can save nearly £40 on the cult tool right now in the lookfantastic sale.

Touted as being great for styling in between washes, it boasts the optimum heat temperature of 185C, which protects hair while styling.

(Bellissima)

With eight attachments, this Bellissima air wonder hot air styler was said by our reviewer to be a great alternative to Dyson’s airwrap. “We think the option of having a range of attachments in one makes for a versatile hair tool and offers multi-tasking value for money,” they said. Praising it for “streamlining” their haircare tool setup in the same way an airwrap would, they loved the varying brush shapes. Right now, you can save £30 on the hair tool.

(ReVamp)

This model secured a spot in our round-up of hot brushes, with our tester saying, “The most impressive design feature on this hot brush is its retractable 5mm bristles – an ingenious way to ensure your hair never gets snagged.” Praising the five heat settings; coconut, argan and keratin oil infused barrel; and lightweight design, our tester added: “It easily glides through hair while wrapped around the barrel to create a flicky, bouncy do.” In the Boots Black Friday sale, you can save £20 on the ReVamp hair tool.

(BaByliss)

Designed for use on dry hair, this cordless hair tool lasts up to 40 minutes on full charge and has three heat settings. Landing a place in our hot brush round-up, our writer noted that heat-up took less than 10 seconds, while the LED light at the base of the wand helpfully indicated battery life. “We pointed it down towards our face, wrapped a strand of hair over the top, and glided it through strands while twisting it away from our face,” they said. “It delivers a lovely bounce – especially on the ends – and gives that salon blow-dried look within minutes.” Enjoy a saving of more than 30 per cent on the hair tool in Amazon’s Black Friday warm-up sale.
