I would absolutely love more reviews of hair dryers from you, but affordable please.

[@CMch22]

Agreed. I think it’s so cool Dyson wants to work with her as much and as often as they have, but the buyer audience for these uber-luxury styling tools is probably a pretty small slice of the pie. I wonder if she is under contract with Dyson, and if so whether that contract has some sort of non-compete agreement that would prohibit featuring other tools until the contract expires. I’m not that bothered if that’s the case, because if I were in Mel’s position I’d probably be thrilled to have an opportunity to do business with such a giant like Dyson that does invest so much into research and development. It would be nice to see more of a range of diffuser reviews though. As for this blow dryer, I’d be tempted if over time it gets a reputation for being very durable and long-lasting, as that would justify the up front cost more for me. I do have a very sensitive scalp, so in that way I am more the target audience in some way I suppose.

When I first viewed this review I thought that’s really great - new technology from Dyson. The scalp protect mode is obviously the biggest feature that separates this model from the regular Dyson (which I have had for years). So thinking this is a great upgrade I purchased the Nural ($705.59 with taxes Cdn). Surprise! The scalp protect mode doesn’t work with the diffuser (yes Very briefly mentioned at the beginning in this review - But! Hey, we are curly girls watching your channel Mel. How can you rave about and promote it based on this new technology when in fact this new technology isn’t even implemented when diffusing curly hair? Neither is the rest feature. So very disappointed! I wouldn’t so care much if I hadn’t spent this amount of money but honestly, when you rave about the new features and none of them apply to curly hair? Something is wrong. - Still love you Mel but, yes disappointed.

Hey, I’m thinking of buying the supersonic. Has it actually helped reduce heat damage?

[@kuroitenshi5865]

@@priyankadhan6560if your concern just about heat damage, I suggest to get any regular hairdryer with difffuser attachment. Its not necessary and the important thing is the technique and the prep product

[@BetsyH-fq3le]

@@priyankadhan6560 Not if you’re using the diffuser. Using it eliminates the feature of reducing heat when close to your hair/scalp. With the diffuser there is absolutely no difference to using the regular Dyson.

[@BooksMusicMe17]

I got a Nural a week ago (not because of Mel, asked for a Supersonic as a present and the gifter thought the newer model must be better, right?) and had the exact same unpleasant realisation. The heat adjusting gimmick doesn't work and even the lowest heat setting feels like it runs hotter than my old dryer (Lanai Blo) so I'm actually worrying about heat damage more...

[@sbtyfr]

They better designed the new diffuser to work with regular supersonic or i will be mad😅

[@yaritzamiranda921]

[@deirdrelizabeth]

my thoughts exactly. I checked the Dyson website and it says it fits both dryers thank god

[@juliaw.3063]

I personally find the features really interesting, specially the sensors that can identify which attachment you're using and which heat settings you had previously. It's just-- I freaking LOVE IT! HOWEVER I must say that I also find it a bit excessive, mainly the number of attachments. 5 different attachments to diffuse your hair? Sounds a little too much for me. Also the price. Definitely too much for me, but I can understand why it's so expensive. Such technology is hard to create and the amount of it this diffuser has is just crazy. Props to Dyson for creating it. Did I like it? Yes. Would I buy it? Nope.

[@cordeeskywalker4074]

Hey Mel, thanks a lot for this! Very interesting. Would love to see a cheaper alternative for all us budget curlies 😂❤

[@denisenj7648]

Over engineered. I need a dryer with 3 speeds, 3 heat settings, and QUIET. New tech should focus on being quiet. I'd pay extra for a super quiet dryer.

Well, you’re welcome to become a technical engineer and go work at Dyson and suggest this to them 😂😂😂😂😂 seems like Dyson’s innovations and products are working for them just fine without your opinion. Girl, that’s you the rest of us like innovations if you are basic, just say that.

Do you think they’re gonna sell the new attachments to buy and use with the original supersonic? I’m so intrigued by the new diffuser dome attachment but I don’t need the whole nural lol

Are you able to get the new diffuser to use on the original supersonic ?

[@nicoleterry5228]

This is what i want to know

[@ComaLies225]

I have the original Dyson and I will always rave about. This new edition looks cool and I don’t want to sound snarky but, if your scalp is overheating I’m pretty sure most people would know and wince from the pain. They would most likely stop and take a moment before returning to blow dry again. I mean I get the heat features and it’s automatic changes when it’s closer or away from the scalp (and by all means it’s a pretty cool feature, not knocking it) but probably not worth it unless you’re willing to shell out for it.

[@shankornfeld1541]

Thank you for talking us through the latest Dyson hair-dryer. It is fascinating what they keep coming up with. In relation to the price, yes, it is expensive, no we do not necessarily need it. Mell has always made that clear. It is like Bose products - you are partly paying for the brand recognition, but a lot of it is to do with innovation. R&D costs a lot. You want multiple engineers working on concepts and designs all at once, producing prototypes, and quite a big portion of these won't work or won't see the light of day. But the ones that do change the landscape of their field of technology. Personally, I want a world like that, with constant innovation and betterment, rather than cheap rehashes of what already exists. Mell, I loved how your shirt and eyeliner matched the colourway of the Dyson! And your smile when you had your hair in the dome attachment was adorable.

[@lindakoberna3465]

I agree. I am normally a sucker for new stuff. The amount of hair products I've been influenced to buy is embarassing. I ended up buying the shark and then got influenced into buying the Laifen.

They probably don’t want you to, but can you make a video showing the new diffuser attaching to the old dryer?

None of the attachments work with the scalp protect, ya just have to use the dryer straight up for that to work. I also thought that it ran WAY to hot for my scalp. Even on the lowest heat setting, I was like wow this is more like warm/hot than cool. I did feel super rich and in the land of luxury, but it just wasn't for me. I did like the diffuser, but that's the only thing I really did like, and for the price tag I really felt I had to be "In love"/head over heels with this dryer to keep it around my house. I purchased a Panasonic Nanoe EHNA67 so we shall see how it performs. It was A LOT cheaper. My husband still can't quite understand why I need "another" hair dryer, but do most men realllllllllly understand women and their beauty products? I mean some do get it, but most don't I would say. My hair cannot air dry, it has to be diffused, or it looks a fright-I think in one of your video you described someone's curly hair that can't let it air dry for specific reasons, and I was like " Hi!! Yep, that's me, Over here in MN".
