When you have hair that’s thick, long, prone to flyaways, or generally takes more effort to dry and style than a quick blast of heat or a simple wash and go, a basic blow dryer won’t cut it. Whether it’s because the drying time takes forever, or your dryer leaves your hair looking unfinished, you’ve probably wondered a) if the best-selling Dyson Supersonic (and its new sibling, the Dyson Supersonic Nural) is worth it and b) if you can find more affordable Dyson dupes that also speeds up drying time and offers plenty of ways to customize your heat and style settings without spending the big bucks.
If you’ve hesitated at the price of Dyson’s hair tools, you’ve come to the right place. As a proud owner of a Dyson Supersonic hair dryer, I can honestly claim that it is worth the high price tag, but that doesn’t mean you’re without more affordable options. We’ve rounded up Dyson Supersonic dupes that have similar specs and a price tag that’s substantially lower than the GOAT.
Read on for more about Dyson’s hair dryer and to see the best Dyson Supersonic dupes of 2025.

Dyson Supersonic Blow Dryer
The Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer is famous for a reason. Elegant on the outside, powerful on the inside, this tool protects hair, speeds up drying time, and reduces unwanted frizz.
How does the Supersonic do all that? It’s designed with intelligent heat control to prevent extreme heat damage and measure air flow, with a special, powerful V9 digital motor to hasten drying time with a high-velocity jet of air . The dryer has four heat and three speed settings, as well as a cool setting, and five different attachments that hold onto the Supersonic using magnets so you can get your hair looking its best, whether you’ve got waves, curls, or straight hair.
Price: $429.99 at Dyson
Dyson Supersonic Nural
The Dyson Supersonic came out in 2016. In 2024, Dyson launched the Dyson Supersonic Nural. The 1600 watt (same as the OG) Nural offers more “smart” technology, like remembering your prior settings, adjusting the heat depending on which attachment you’re using, and a pause detect feature so it reduces intensity when you rest it on your counter, plus those excellent attachments you know and love, including a diffuser for wavy and curly hair; a gentle air attachment to reduce heat near your scalp; a wide tooth comb; concentrated nozzle; and a flyaway attachment to reduce unwanted frizz.
Price: $399 at Sephora (currently on sale for $100 off, regularly priced at $499)
The Best Dyson Supersonic Dupes
These are the 7 hair dryers you can purchase for much less than the Dyson Supersonic that come with many of the same amazing specs and attachments.
Note: Products reflect the price and availability at the time of publication.
1. Bio Ionic Gold Pro Speed Dryer
The 1875-watt Bio Ionic Gold Dryer wins high marks for being light and quiet, making the entire drying experience an overall more pleasant one. It does an excellent job reducing frizz and leaving your hair looking shiny and healthy. With a 9-foot long cord, just like Dyson’s, it also allows you plenty of room to maneuver.
It’s heat and speed adjustable, with a cool shot option, and it comes with two attachments — a concentrator and a diffuser, rather than the five Dyson attachments.
2. INFINITIPRO BY CONAIR Hair Dryer
Elegant looking at a budget price, the Conair INFINITIPRO is a powerful 1875-watt dryer that dries hair quickly. It has three heat settings, two speed settings, a cold shot button, and comes with a diffuser and a concentrator.
Thanks to the removable lint filter, the INFINITIPRO is also easy to clean. One downside: though it’s only a pound and a half, it feels big — the motor is in the dryer itself rather than the handle, and particularly when you add the diffuser attachment, this can seem a bit more cumbersome than the smaller, streamlined Dyson. As the cheapest pick on our list, though, it’s a winner!
3. Remington One Ionic Hair Dryer
Like Conair, Remington is another big name in trustworthy budget hair styling tools, and for a fraction of the price of a Dyson, you will get a quality in the Remington One Ionic Hair Dryer.
This lightweight, short barreled, easy-to-work-with dryer comes with three attachments: diffuser, concentrator, and flyaway tamer, and offers eight different heat settings and a cool shot function. It’s 1875 watts and has a six-foot cord.
4. Conair Radiance Boost Dryer
Come for the baby blue color, stay for the efficient, frizz-controlling power. Three heat temps, two speeds, cool shot button, folding handle for travel, diffuser and con, 1875 watts, concentrator. Great overall small, lightweight, travel-friendly option, though it is not as speedy as the Dyson, so if you have a lot of thick hair, this may not be able to do the heavy lifting you need.
5. Shark Beauty SpeedStyle Pro FLEX Professional Performance High-Velocity Hair Dryer System
Vacuum brand Shark is coming for Dyson’s crown with their technically advanced, slim, fast hair dryers. The pleasantly quiet SpeedStyle Pro FLEX comes with three versatile styling tools — whether you’re looking for waves, curls, or straight styles. This 1700 watt dryer regulates temperature to keep it from scorching your hair, comes with three attachments — — a concentrator, brush, and gloss finisher — and an eight-foot cord. Buy the diffuser attachment and wide-tooth comb separately.
6. PATTERN The Blow Hair Dryer
Tracee Ellis Ross launched her haircare brand Pattern in 2019, but it took a few years of R&D to perfect her (gorgeous-looking) hair dryer, designed especially for people with curly, coily, and tight textured hair. With three heat and two speed settings, a cool shot button, and an ion switch — on to smooth, off to boost volume. Comes with a diffuser, wide tooth comb, brush attachment, and concentrator.
7. T3 Featherweight StyleMax Hair Dryer
This incredible hair dryer from luxury brand T3 is ideal no matter what kind of hair you have because it auto-adjusts between five heat settings and three speed settings, the ion-infused air offers shine and keeps hair from getting unwanted frizz, and the special internal fan provides faster dry time without damage. Comes with four different attachments: a drying concentrator, styling concentrator, diffusers, and smoothing comb.
