Shark SpeedStyle Pro High-Velocity Hair Dryer with Scalp Shield, 5 Attachments & Storage Bag (HD752UK, Black)

Our Verdict

The SpeedStyle Pro is Shark’s answer to the Dyson Supersonic: a compact high-velocity dryer that dries with fast airflow rather than very high heat. Its neat trick is that it recognises which attachment is fitted and sets the temperature and airflow to suit, so there is less fiddling with buttons. The five attachments cover most hair types: a DefrizzFast Diffuser for curls and waves, a QuickSmooth Brush for smoothing as you dry, a FrizzFighter tool for flyaways, a Turbo Concentrator and a small touch-up brush. Scalp Shield drops the temperature for drying at the roots. This HD752UK listing is the UK-plug model with Shark’s two-year warranty when you register it. Amazon.ie also sells other SpeedStyle Pro bundles with fewer attachments, so check the model code. It makes most sense for someone who dries their hair most days; for a weekly blow-dry, a budget dryer does the job.
