. . . to spend £450 on a hair curler?

[RedPandaFluff]

Maybe someone needs to talk me off the ledge I seem to have found myself on.

The Dyson Airwrap. Looks magical. I covet the curls. And Currys has it in stock, so I'm sitting here clutching my debit card with sweaty hands. But £450 for the complete version . . . ouch.

It's not an issue financially, nothing will suffer - no kids, just two high-maintenance (but ungrateful) cats and even then their special grain-free diet won't be compromised.

But really. £450. Am I crazy?

Looooook . . .

It’s not just a curler though, it’s a straightener and a hair dryer!
I’m hoping for one for Christmas. My husband works for dyson and he borrowed one for an weekend for me, and it was amazing!

I was considering it (bit like you/ think it’s a ridiculous price for a hair dryer but can afford it no problem) but the reviews are very mixed. The polished/sponsored looking ones are positive, and the independent ones are about 50/50.

Everyone told me I'd regret buying the hair dryer and how much of a waste of money it is, but I praise the day I bought it every time I wash my hair. Id I were one for curling my hair I'd have bought the airwrap by now!

Following!

Looks magical and definitely better with The Tangler aka that big bouncy brush thing that everyone raves about on here

Placemarking to hear more!

I thought it was rubbish, doesn’t work as well as it makes out and was a total waste of money. I sent it back.

Up to you though, it might work better for you.

Possibly, but it does look intriguing. And I'm one who loathes anything to do with hair.

It's black Friday soon, hold out!

Treat yo’ self!!!!!! It looks fab and like you said it wont harm finances i would go for it!!! If i had decent length non crappy hair and enough money i would buy one!!!! Do it update us with a pic of your curls to!!!!x

Insane.

@PolPotNoodle so what is it about the hairdryer that is so good? If it can help me dry my very unruly hair I'll pay (almost) anything!

Looks amazing! Really want one

Right, I have a plan!

If I buy it directly from the Dyson website, I have 35 days to try it out; so if it's rubbish, I can return it. HOWEVER. They don't have the Complete set in stock, so I'll have to get the Smooth and Control set.

So.

I'll get the Smooth and Control one, return it within the 35 days, and if I've liked it, buy the Complete set from wherever has it.

This seems eminently logical to me . . . 

I want it! I have the hairdryer but now want this too!

I don't think you'll need it all. You can message them on fb messenger and they will send you a series of questions about your hair type to ensure you buy the correct one.

I KNEW it was going to be for the new Dyson tool.

But if you do get it, you could post feedback on it, and help out others who are considering it.

So consider it a good deed

I've seen adverts for interest free credit on these... over 10 months. £45 a month you'd hardly notice. You're practically getting it for free that way!!

You're all a bunch of enablers.

I love it 

Maybe we could club together and get a MN share one, sort of like a job share but for fantastic hair

Bagsy Friday to Sunday!

Do it. Do it now and then tell us all about it's wizardry.

Are qvc doing it on easy pay instalments? They offer thirty day money back on all their products too.

I have it! I’m not one for curling my hair as I’m lacking in co-ordination but I’ve been tossing my beautifully styled mane of curls all week! So easy to use, the full set is everything you’ll ever need andit has a smaller version of the hair drier so therefore you must actually be saving money?? Well that’s how I justified it!

Lord above

Buy it. It will make you happy every day.

I bought bike wheels that cost that much. My hair’s a naturally curly mess, but my bike wheels make me happy every day. The kids are clothed and fed. The cats fine. Nobody suffered for my wheels.

This is definitely one of those posts that shows the wide range of people here on MN!
