The Shark hair dryer has often been compared to the significantly more expensive Dyson hair dryer. But today, you can snag it on a super sale.

Shark HyperAIR Ionic Hair Dryer – $149 ($80.99 off; originally $229.99)

This hair dryer features HyperAIR IQ Technology, which works to combine high-velocity heated air and ionized air to provide lightning-fast drying with no heat damage, all while making your hairstyle of choice last for hours. Its heat control outlet heats up to 1,000 times per second, ensuring consistent temperature and air distribution for quick, even drying, as well as dual optical sensors that automatically recognize its stylers to set a proper heat and airflow. Its negative ion generator also increases smoothness and shine while decreasing frizz and flyaways compared to air drying, making for an easy, healthy hair-care experience for all hair types. 

Users can adjust the three heat and airflow settings to low, medium, or high, based on their preference before styling with the IQ Stylers. Simply press and hold the Cool Shot button to close the cuticle and smooth hair for a soft, frizz-free finish. By attaching the IQ 2-in-1 Concentrator to the dryer, you can dry and shape your hair in fewer steps, and then attach the IQ Styling Brush to dry, straighten, and add shine to your hair, all at the same time. 

In addition to the IQ 2-in-1 Concentrator and IQ Styling Brush, the Shark HyperAir Dryer also comes with a cleaning brush.
