Dyson has expanded its hair styling line-up with the launch of the Airsmooth, its first dedicated dryer brush designed to dry, smooth and lift hair in a single pass.
The new tool is aimed at making everyday styling more straightforward, bringing drying and brushing together rather than requiring users to move between different devices during their routine.
The Airsmooth joins Dyson’s established Airwrap and Airstrait ranges, but takes a simpler approach to styling. Rather than focusing on multiple attachments or more complex styling techniques, it has been designed around the idea of getting hair dry and looking polished with one tool.
A New Approach to Everyday Styling
At the heart of the Airsmooth is a combination of airflow, brushing technology and controlled heat. The brush is designed to move through the hair while directing airflow to help dry and shape it at the same time.
Dyson has developed the tool with its PivotFlex technology and Anti-snag bristles. The design allows hair to wrap around the brush before being released, with the bristles intended to reduce pulling and tugging as the tool moves through the hair.
For users who regularly use a hairdryer and brush together, the idea is relatively simple. The Airsmooth brings those steps into one styling process, helping to reduce the amount of switching between tools.
The result is intended to be smoother, lifted hair without turning an everyday routine into a lengthy styling session.
Intelligent Heat Control
Heat management is another key part of the Airsmooth’s design.
The brush measures the temperature of the air 100 times a second while it is being used. Dyson says this intelligent heat control helps manage the temperature during styling, rather than relying on a fixed level of heat throughout the process.
That is particularly relevant for a tool designed for regular use. Excessive heat can be a concern when styling hair frequently, so controlling the temperature is an important part of Dyson’s approach to its latest hair technology.
The company positions the Airsmooth as a way to achieve a styled finish while keeping the process controlled, combining the performance of heated styling with airflow rather than relying solely on high temperatures.
Designed to Be Easier to Use
The Airsmooth has also been designed with everyday handling in mind. Its lightweight construction is intended to make it easier to move through the hair, particularly when styling larger sections or working around the face.
The brush format also means that users can dry and shape the hair as they go, rather than drying it first and then returning with another tool to create a smoother finish.
For those who prefer a relatively simple hair routine, this is where the Airsmooth is positioned differently from some of Dyson’s more advanced styling products.
The Airwrap, for example, is known for its range of attachments and ability to create different styles, while the Airstrait is focused on drying and straightening at the same time. The Airsmooth sits somewhere else in the line-up, concentrating on the everyday blow-dry effect.
Designed for Different Hair Types
Dyson is positioning the Airsmooth as an everyday styling tool suitable for different hair types.
The combination of airflow and brushing is intended to help users create a smoother appearance while maintaining movement and lift, making it suitable for those looking to achieve a more polished finish without using several separate tools.
Its design also focuses on ease of use, making it possible to work through the hair in sections while the brush simultaneously dries and shapes it.
The Anti-snag bristles are an important part of this approach, with Dyson developing them to help the hair move through the brush more easily.
A Practical Option for Travel
The Airsmooth also features universal voltage, giving it an added advantage for people who travel regularly.
Rather than packing a separate hairdryer, brush and styling tool, the dryer brush combines several functions in one device. That makes it a practical addition to a travel beauty kit, particularly for anyone who wants to maintain a regular styling routine while away from home.
It also reflects the wider direction of the hair styling market, where consumers are increasingly looking for products that can perform more than one task without taking up additional space.
Joining Dyson’s Growing Hair Line-Up
The Airsmooth expands a hair styling portfolio that already includes some of Dyson’s most recognisable products.
The Airwrap has established itself as one of the company’s best-known styling tools, using airflow to create curls, waves and other finishes, while the Airstrait offers a different approach by combining drying and straightening.
The Airsmooth is less about creating a wide variety of styles and more about simplifying the daily process.
That distinction could make it particularly appealing to users who do not necessarily want a collection of attachments or styling options, but still want a smoother, more finished look when drying their hair.
Now Available
The Dyson Airsmooth went on sale on 8 September 2026 through Dyson and selected major retailers.
Its launch gives consumers another option within Dyson’s growing hair technology range, with the company focusing on a straightforward proposition: drying, smoothing and adding lift without having to change tools halfway through the routine.
With its PivotFlex technology, Anti-snag bristles, intelligent heat control and travel-friendly universal voltage, the Airsmooth is designed to sit between the convenience of a traditional hairdryer and the styling capabilities of a dedicated heated brush.
For Dyson, it marks another step in developing hair technology around the way people actually use their styling tools every day, with a focus on combining several stages of the routine into one device.
