New Product Dyson Airstrait Hair Straightener

The scoop

If you have been eyeing Dyson’s hair tools, there is a new one worth knowing about: the Dyson Airstrait Hair Straightener just showed up on shelves, and it is a different approach to getting smooth, straight hair.

Instead of hot ceramic plates, the Airstrait uses air flow to dry and straighten hair at the same time, which Dyson says helps avoid the heat damage that traditional flat irons can cause. It comes with two styling modes, wet-to-dry and dry, so you can use it straight out of the shower or as a touch-up tool on already-dry hair.

This Costco package also includes a couple of nice extras: a bottle of Dyson Omega hydrating hair oil and a presentation case, both called out as Costco-exclusive added value. That is a thoughtful bundle for a tool in this price range, and it suggests Dyson wants this version to feel like a complete styling kit rather than just the straightener alone.

For anyone who has been wanting to try Dyson’s air-based styling tech without buying the Airwrap, this straightener looks like an interesting alternative, especially with the bonus oil and case thrown in. It is a premium price point, but if you are already invested in Dyson hair tools, this one rounds out the lineup nicely.
