India, Feb. 24 -- I never thought a hair tool could intimidate me, but the first time I unboxed the Dyson Airwrap i.d., I'll admit, I paused. It looked less like a curling iron and more like something engineered for a higher purpose. Dyson has built a reputation for sleek, high-tech beauty tools, and with the original Dyson Airwrap already having a cult following, my expectations were high.

As my job profile as a beauty commerce writer demands, I've used and tested enough heat styling tools. So when I learned Dyson styles with air instead of extreme heat, I was sceptical. Is air styling better than heat styling? Does Dyson style your hair for a longer time than other tools? And that's when I thought of reviewing this grooming marvel.
