As the Dyson Airwrap is a pretty new product, there isn't all that much information on how safe it is for our strands. Because of this we cannot give a definite answer as to whether is is safer or not. Therefore, this is something we will be monitoring and looking into as time goes on. That being said, it seems that how safe the device is could depend on the attachments used. For example, the 'Airwrap' barrels are likely going to be safer than the brush attachments. This is because the brush attachments seem to have plastic bristles, which are more damaging to the hair strands. It is important to note that whenever you use heat tools, you must make sure you protect your hair correctly. Resilient silicones can be great for protecting the hair against heat and are a good choice for special occasions too!
