The Supersonic r hair dryer might be the cutest hair tool — and professional hair stylists and fashion week glam teams have been the only ones to try it until now

Dyson has announced the launch of its Supersonic r hair dryer to the public. Previously, the Supersonic r was only available to professional hair stylists, but the hair dryer will launch in the UK from 2nd April for £449.

The new launch has been described as Dyson’s most powerful and lightweight hair dryer yet. Setting it apart from the other tools in the range, the pro hair dryer boasts a unique “r” design, making it 20 per cent smaller and 30 per cent lighter than the original supersonic, adding to its user-friendly appeal.

The device, which is 20 percent smaller and 30 percent lighter than its predecessor, has been used only by stylists for one year.
