I’ve been reviewing hair tools for over two years now, and I’ve had some serious hands-on time with the likes of the Shark, Dyson and Dreame airstylers. Up until now, my go-to airstyler was the Shark Flexstyle, as it packs an Airwrap-sized punch in a more affordable package. But now, I’m considering ditching it completely for Shark’s newest entry. The Shark Glam officially launched in global markets last year, building on the Flexstyle by introducing brand new attachments that truly make it an all-in-one styling
solution. In our Shark Glam review, our Homes Editor, Millie, gave it a glowing 5-star rating, claiming that most people would “never need another hair styler again”, as it would certainly replace most hair tools, from dryer to straightener and hot brush, thanks to its interchangeable attachments. Notably, the new hair tool includes specialised ceramic straightener and brush styler attachments, which both utilise heat and airflow settings to achieve a frizz-free finish. As a wet-to-dry styler, it cuts down precious time on hair drying and
styling, and can be used in either wet or dry mode across the attachments. It also has a cool shot to lock in styles and boost shiny locks. As for pricing, the Shark Glam costs a modest AU$699.99, which is just AU$300 cheaper than its direct competitor, the Dyson Airwrap Co-anda 2x and is available in Soft Gold or Soft Pink colourways. Note that Soft Pink is currently out of stock at Shark Direct, but it is available at retailers like Myer and JB Hi-Fi.
After going between my Shark Flexstyle and Dyson Airstrait depending on what hairstyle I’d like on any given day, I just know the Glam would save me plenty of time, especially given how easy it is to change attachments. If I wanted to curl my bangs but keep most of my hair straight, it would be effortless, and I wouldn’t need to switch tools. Even in her verdict, Millie noted that it’s one of the most capable hair stylers she’s ever tried, and that she
can “basically get rid of every other hair tool in my styling arsenal now, because the Glam outpaces all of them”. As mentioned, if you’re keen on nabbing the ultimate airstyler, the Shark Glam, you’d better act fast — it’s already selling out at major retailers, so you’ll need to hurry. And if you’re worried about the hefty pricetag, you may want to check back here in a couple of weeks during EOFY sales. My fingers (and toes) are crossed a bargain will come my
way for this coveted styler 🤞 Follow Tom’s Guide on Google News and add us as a preferred source to get our up-to-date news, analysis, and reviews in your feeds.
