The new Dyson Supersonic Travel is a portable haircare innovation that's 32% smaller and 25% lighter than the brand's full-sized Supersonic hair dryer, perfectly sized to fit handbags, carry-ons and cabin luggage. For glossier, healthier-looking hair on the go, the Supersonic Travel hair dryer makes the most of smart heat control technology that measures airflow temperature 100 times per second to prevent extreme heat damage, all while delivering airflow for a quick, fast, and even drying experience.
Notably, James Dyson, founder and Chief Engineer, says: "We didn't just shrink a dryer, we re-engineered it for travel." Current Supersonic users can appreciate that the Supersonic Travel can be used with existing Supersonic or Supersonic Nural attachments, and frequent travelers don't need to fuss since the dryer's voltage automatically adapts to the country of choice.
