Hair. Our healthy obsession.

We’ve tested 1,010 miles of real hair, from its structure to airflow dynamics, in our state-of-the-art laboratories. Because the more we understand hair, the better we can help you look after it.

Engineered to help protect your hair

Inside Dyson Hair Laboratories

Our obsession with hair has led us to create one of the most sophisticated hair laboratories in the world. Everything we learn informs our engineering decisions.

  • Dyson supersonic in laboratory.

    Real hair, not just cloth

    By challenging convention, we uncovered the role velocity plays in the hair drying process.

  • Real hair being tested in a laboratory.

    Pulling things apart

    The tensile test measures hair strength. Discover how extreme heat weakens the hair.

  • Learn how damaged hair absorbs water more quickly than healthy hair, which can weaken it.

The science behind style

  • Play the video: At Dyson we redesigned heat control to prevent exteme heat damage and protect your hair, instead of having to repair it.

    The science behind shine

    Our obsession with hair led us to go above and beyond to understand shine, what effects it, and why we created a hair dryer to help protect it.

  • Play the video: Learn how damaged hair absorbs water quickly, causing strands to swell and increasing frizz, and how the Dyson Supersonic can help prevent this happening.

    The science behind frizz

    Damaged hair absorbs water quickly, causing strands to swell, creating frizz. That’s why we engineered a hair dryer with intelligent heat control.

Hair science. Or myth?

Our journey to redefine hair care has helped us to challenge common misconceptions about the health of hair.

  • Play the video: Higher wattage is often percieved to be linked to powerful airflow. Yet Dyson Supersonic™ technology creates fast, powerful airflow at just 1,600 Watts.

    The power of airflow

    Does higher hair dryer wattage really mean more powerful airflow? Discover the science behind the myth.

  • Water falling

    The cold truth

    It's said that rinsing your hair with cold water will make it shine. But that's not science. Let us show you why.

Did you know?

  • Real hair being tested in laboratory. The hair is clipped to a rail.

    The life cycle of a hair is typically 2 to 7 years.

  • Hair being tested under heating elements

    Hair is the second fastest replicating tissue in the human body.

  • Hair being tested by the Dyson supersonic

    A style will drop out faster if you overdry the hair.

  • Mannequin head being tested on with the Dyson supersonic hairdryer.

    The average human head has 80,000 to 150,000 hairs.

  • The Dyson Supersonic hair dryer. Being tested under ultra violet lights.

    Hair can't heal once damaged, so it's important to protect it.

  • Real hair being tested in laboratory.

    Hair is typically 79% keratin, 17% water and 4% fats, oils and pigments.
