Great dryer, iffy curler, subpar cord.

I’ve always wanted a Shark FlexStyle, mainly because it’s designed to significantly reduce (though not completely eliminate) heat damage from blow-drying. When I purchased it, the copper special edition was the only color available. At first, I was a little disappointed in the color and worried it might chip over time—but I’ve been pleasantly surprised. The coating is very high quality, and I don’t see any chipping or flaking happening anytime soon. I was especially excited to try the curling attachments. I have fine hair, but a lot of it, and I didn’t realize I would be receiving separate right and left curling barrels. While I did see two barrels in the product images, it wasn’t clear why there were two. Once I started using them, I found the learning curve to be frustrating. Because I have layers, I had to take extremely small sections and make sure each section was wrapped at the same length, which was difficult and time-consuming. The result was uneven curls that I didn’t love. I also discovered that I really don’t like the concept of having separate right and left barrels. When I curl my hair, I prefer to switch back and forth between sides to keep things even. Constantly removing and reattaching different barrels just isn’t practical for me. I’m sure someone with more advanced hairstyling skills could master this system, but it’s simply not for me. I may try again in the future, but I have a feeling the curling attachments won’t be a regular part of my routine. On the positive side, I absolutely love the brush attachment. It gives my hair noticeably more body and volume compared to regular blow-drying. The dryer itself is excellent—very high quality and much faster than my previous standard blow dryer. It doesn’t create a chaotic wind tunnel; instead, the airflow feels precise and intentional. I have slightly wavy hair, and after drying with this, I only need minimal straightening to get the smooth look I want. With my old dryer, I had to use a flat iron forever because it blew my hair everywhere and made it bend in odd directions. One other major downside is the cord. While the FlexStyle itself is lightweight, the cord is extremely thick, heavy, and bulky. When attempting to curl my hair, the cord twists up constantly, forcing me to stop and untangle it. It doesn’t swivel well due to the stiff bend where it connects to the base. The only way I could prevent it from twisting completely was by holding the cord near the base while curling, which isn’t ideal. Overall, I truly adore this blow dryer—it’s everything I hoped for in terms of performance, speed, and hair finish. The brush attachment is fantastic, and the dryer itself is a huge upgrade. However, two major issues hold it back from being perfect: the heavy, hard-to-maneuver cord and the curling barrel system. If Shark addressed these, this would easily be a five-star product.

Easy to use

Love this hairdryer . It’s lightweight to use , easy to use, has different speeds and heat adjustments. You can do a couple different styles with it, you can definitely do a wonderful blowout style with this or easy curls. It does take a bit of a learning curve especially for the curling rods but once you get it, it’s a game changer. I use it at least once a day.

Best hair dryer and styling system

Hands down the best hair tool I have invested in! It dries my thick long hair so fast and cuts the time in half. I use the diffuser, brush, and curl attachments. The curls last 2-3 days on me. I use mousse before I curl my hair and helps so much. It’s super easy to get used to. The round brush works perfect on my face framing pieces as well. I’ve had this for 2 years now and have had zero issues.

Great purchase

I love the versatility of this product and how easy it is to switch between the attachments to get a fully styled look. Its design makes it easy to store after using and it fits easily into my hands without being too bulky and it’s easy to use. The cord is long enough so I don’t find myself glued to the outlet while using it. The only negative aspect is that it’s extremely loud with some attachments and settings.

Great dryer

Great new hairdryer. Love how travel friendly this is. My husband loves it too. Great for styling hair quickly and efficiently. I love the curling barrels and how quickly my hair dries. Curls don’t hold as long as a curling wand but that was expected since my hair is hard to hold curls.

A lazy girl’s dream

Easy to use, way more cost effective than the Dyson. And yall, 5 minutes to dry my hair, when it usually takes 20. Curly, straight, literally whatever you want in one device

Thick hair? No worries!

This blow dryer is the best investment I’ve ever made. I have medium thick hair and it dries out so much faster than my usual dryers. I don’t feel that my hair is oily after drying and make sure to do it in sections to get it straighter.

Me gusta!

There is nothing this system CANT do. I use this almost every day, and it is everything in one. Fastest hair dryer, and simplest, most versatile styling system. I’ve used the Dyson set and prefer this x5!
