The Dyson Supersonic Nural™ hair dryer brings intelligent technology to your styling routine, focusing on scalp health and personalized drying through its advanced sensing capabilities and attachment learning. This dryer is designed to dry hair quickly while protecting your scalp from extreme heat and remembering your preferred settings for different styling attachments.
Understanding the Dyson Supersonic Nural's Core Technology
At the heart of the Supersonic Nural™ is its innovative Scalp Protect Mode and Attachment Learning.
- Scalp Protect Mode: This feature automatically reduces heat as the dryer gets closer to your scalp, maintaining an optimal scalp temperature of 130°F (55°C). When this mode is active, the center light turns blue, indicating that the thermal sensor is working to protect your scalp.
- Attachment Learning: The dryer is smart enough to remember your last two heat and speed settings for each attachment you use. This means you can simply snap on an attachment, and it will recall your preferred settings, streamlining your styling process.
Getting Started with Your Dyson Supersonic Nural
Using the Supersonic Nural™ is intuitive, designed for ease and efficiency.
- Power On: Plug in your dryer and press the power button, usually located on the handle.
- Basic Controls:
- Heat Settings: Adjust the temperature using the heat control button. You'll typically find options for cool, low, medium, and high heat. When Scalp Protect mode is active, the heat adjusts automatically.
- Speed Settings: Control the airflow speed with the speed control button, offering options like gentle, medium, and fast.
- Activating Scalp Protect Mode: This mode is often activated automatically when the dryer detects proximity to your hair or scalp. Watch for the center light turning blue, which confirms it's active and intelligently managing heat.
Utilizing the Intelligent Attachments
The Dyson Supersonic Nural™ comes with a suite of magnetically attaching styling tools, each designed for specific styling needs. A key advantage is that these attachments snap on magnetically for easy interchangeability and stay cool to the touch during use, enhancing safety and comfort.
Here's a look at common attachments and their uses:
| Attachment Name | Primary Use | Key Feature |
|---|---|---|
| Styling Concentrator | Precision styling, directing airflow to small sections | Focused, high-velocity air for smooth finishes |
| Diffuser | Defining curls and waves, reducing frizz | Evenly disperses air, mimics natural drying |
| Gentle Air Attachment | Faster drying for fine hair and sensitive scalps | Wider, softer airflow |
| Flyaway Smoother | Hiding flyaways for a sleek, shiny finish | Coanda effect to attract and tuck away stray hairs |
| Wide-tooth Comb | Shaping and lengthening curly and coily hair | Robust teeth to detangle and define |
How Attachment Learning Works:
When you use an attachment, the dryer records your heat and speed preferences. The next time you attach the same tool, it automatically recalls these settings, saving you time and ensuring consistent results. You can always override these learned settings manually.
Tips for Optimal Styling and Hair Health
- Prep Your Hair: Start with towel-dried hair. For best results, apply heat protectant or styling products before drying.
- Section Your Hair: Divide your hair into manageable sections using clips. This allows for more thorough and even drying.
- Maintain Distance: While Scalp Protect Mode manages heat, generally keeping the dryer moving and not holding it static in one spot is good practice to prevent excessive heat exposure.
- Finish with a Cool Shot: Many users find that a blast of cool air (often activated by holding down the heat button) helps to set the style and add shine.
- Experiment with Settings: Don't be afraid to try different heat and speed combinations, especially with new attachments, to discover what works best for your hair type and desired style.
- Clean Regularly: To maintain performance, regularly clean the filter at the bottom of the dryer handle. Consult your user manual for specific cleaning instructions.
