Elevate your everyday hair routine with Dyson‘s latest hairdryer, the Supersonic r. Designed for comfort, control, and precision, this newly re-engineered hairdryer is smaller, lighter, and easier to manoeuvre – ideal for everyday use or when you’re styling on the go.
Despite its compact form, it delivers high-speed airflow for fast, effective drying. Inside, an ultra-responsive heater evenly warms the air to avoid hot spots, allowing you to style with care and consistency.

Each attachment clicks on with a magnetic hold and is preset to the ideal heat and airflow. Built-in smart technology recognises the attachment you’re using and remembers your last settings, making every session intuitive and personalised.
Whether you’re getting ready for a day out or a night in the city, the Supersonic r offers the tools to create two distinct looks – bouncy volume for daytime polish, and a sleek, straight finish for evening elegance.
Here’s how to get both styles, with styling tips along the way to help your hair look great and last longer.
Look 1: Bouncy blowout for a day out
Step 1: Pre-dry with volume in mind
On towel-dried hair, attach the Powerful Air attachment to the Supersonic r and set to medium heat with high airflow. Rough-dry until hair is about 80% dry.
Styling tip: Flip your head upside down while drying to lift roots and enhance natural volume.
Step 2: Section and prep
Divide hair into small, manageable sections. Switch to the Professional Concentrator attachment for targeted airflow.
Step 3: Blow-dry with shape
Using a round brush, direct airflow from the nozzle down each section, curling under as you go.
Styling tip: Wrap hair around the brush and blow-dry away from the face for that bouncy blowout effect.
Step 4: Lock in your style
Activate the cold shot feature to cool each section before releasing the brush. This sets the style in place.
Styling tip: Cold air helps re-lock the hydrogen bonds in your hair, making your blowout last longer.
Step 5: Volumise the fringe
Lift your fringe upward and forward with the round brush, directing airflow from above, then sweep it gently to the side.
Styling tip: For extra lift, avoid blow-drying along your natural part – start from the opposite direction for better volume.
Final touch: Lightly mist your hair with volumising spray to hold the shape without weighing it down. The result: soft, weightless volume that carries you effortlessly through work meetings, brunch dates, or even just errands.
Look 2: Sleek and straight for date night
Step 1: Refresh and reset
Whether you styled a blowout earlier or are starting with dry hair, begin by lightly misting with water or a conditioning spray.
Use the Gentle Air attachment on low heat to soften and smooth strands in preparation for reshaping.
Step 2: Section and straighten
Divide hair into small, even sections. Attach the Smoothing Nozzle to deliver a focused stream of airflow. Work section by section, guiding airflow from root to tip using medium heat.
Styling tip: Always point the nozzle downward to smooth the cuticle and enhance shine.
Step 3: Set the finish
Once the shape is in place, go over the surface again with the Flyaway Smoother on low heat. This helps refine texture and polish stray strands for a clean silhouette.
Step 4: Lock it all in
Finish with a cool shot across the your hair to set style and preserve structure.
Final touch: Run a few drops of smoothing serum through the ends. Your hair should look glossy, sleek, and refined – perfect for dinner, drinks, or wherever the night leads.
Whether you’re stepping out into daylight or city lights, the Dyson Supersonic r delivers salon-grade results in the comfort of your home. Its adaptive intelligence, intuitive design, and scientifically-backed performance make it more than just a hairdryer – it’s a styling revolution.
