Amazon knocks £40 off Shark SpeedStyle hair dryer shoppers say is 'better than Dyson'
The discounted Shark hair dryer comes with five handy attachments and a cute storage bag
by Phoebe Barton · The MirrorAhead of Black Friday, Amazon is offering a fabulous deal on one of its best-selling Shark hair dryers. The SpeedStyle Hair Dryer usually costs £179.99, but for a limited time, the online giant is offering a 22% discount, bringing the cost down to £129.99.
The 'powerful and lightweight' high-speed hair dryer is suitable for all hair types. It comes in a cute storage bag and has five handy styling tools, including a diffuser, concentrator nozzle and a RapidGloss Finisher that provides a 'high-shine finish in minutes'.
The hair dryer is an Amazon's Choice product and has earned an overall rating of 4.5 out of five. One shopper even said: "Dare I say it, I like it better than my Dyson, which I'm now planning on selling", as they gave it a full five stars.

They carried on and said: "Love this. Really easy to use and lightweight. Really like the white colour. The settings are great with regard to power and heat."
The sleek Shark SpeedStyler has an auto-adjust feature that will automatically change the heat and airflow, and has a cool shot function to lock in your style. The brand claims the hair dryer will cause no heat damage, as it measures and regulates temperatures a thousand times per second, never exceeding 110°C or reaching heat-damaging temperatures.
A second wrote: "This is by far the best and most powerful hair dryer I have ever owned. It's lightweight, it's not too hot so it doesn't burn my hair, and is super quiet."
"Absolutely the best hair dryer I have ever bought," said another delighted buyer. "It does everything as described. My hair has no frizz and with the shine attachment, my hair is so shiny. I have thick long hair which usually takes me ages to dry, but with a Shark hair dryer it only takes 15 mins. So happy with this product."
Someone else said: "It definitely dries my hair faster than previous hair dryers and it also straightens my hair at the same time. I'm happy I've found a hair dryer that isn't damaging my hair too much as it dries it." They did, however, note: "It's a bit loud and feels heavier than previous hair dryers but I don't mind that."
Unfortunately the Shark SpeedStyler didn't suit everyone, with one person explaining: "Not for me. My hair was really frizzy and had flyaways after using it." You can buy the hair dryer from Amazon here for £129.99 while the sale is on.
The online retailer is one of the few places selling the styling tool, with it currently being sold out at Shark and Boots. Alternatively, Boots currently has the Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer on sale for £279.99. The Bellissima Italia Gemini Lightweight Hair Dryer is on offer for £149.99.
