Dyson’s most intelligent hair dryer with new sensor technology is now in Malaysia.
James Dyson, Founder and Chief Engineer shared: “If you’re able to limit heat damage, you can get a healthier scalp, and healthier hair. Our new Supersonic NuralTM has a time-of-flight sensor which recognises your head and reduces the heat as it gets close to your hair, preventing heat damage to both your scalp and your hair. Innovation only comes from investing in research and development."
"Our obsession to truly understand the root of the problem continues, as we build up some of the most sophisticated hair laboratories in the world."
Dyson’s latest styling tool comes equipped with a new Scalp protect mode which uses a network of Nural sensors, automatically reducing heat as it nears your head, helping protect your scalp from damage. These sensors also improve the styling experience, enhance hair shine, and prevent heat damage.
The new and improved attachments, which cater to all hair types, are equipped with attachment recognition, which learns a user’s styling preferences and simplifies their routine for fast, healthy drying with no heat damage.
Dyson’s new Nural sensors activate Scalp protect mode, Attachment learning, and Pause detect – all which help to make styling easier.
New Scalp protect mode protects scalp health:
- In this mode, heat is automatically reduced to and maintained at 55°C, the optimum temperature for scalp comfort and drying speed, for improved thermal comfort.
- A time-of-flight sensor enables this, by projecting an invisible infrared beam to measure the distance between the machine and your hair, making it suitable for dry, sensitive, and oily scalps.
Capsule illumination changes colour to show heat setting:
- When in Scalp protect mode, this feature ensures that the LED light colour will automatically change between yellow (low heat), to orange (medium heat) and red (high heat), depending on the distance of the machine from the user’s head.
Attachment Learning remembers your styling preferences:
- The machine learns and remembers your preference and knows when you’ve paused styling, which simplifies your everyday styling routine.
- The Dyson Supersonic Nural™ hair dryer remembers the user’s last-used heat and airflow settings for each styling attachment, and automatically applies them the next time it is in use.
Pause Detect for easier routines:
- An Accelerometer detects movement and knows when the machine is put down, deactivating the heater, decreasing airflow and unnecessary noise.
Fast Drying:
- The Dyson Supersonic Nural™ hair dryer is engineered to dry hair fast, with a motor that’s 6 times faster.
End Results:
- Users can finish their styling routine with a voluminous, smooth, and shiny look achieved easily with the Flyaway smoother.
“From our research into the science of hair, we know that there is a connection between the quality of hair and a healthy scalp. The scalp tissue comprises different layers, with the outermost layer serving as a barrier against external stressors. But when your scalp is damaged, moisture loss can occur, a key factor in our development of the Scalp Protect mode feature. This helps to maintain scalp moisture levels and allows for gentle drying.” - Shawn Lim, Head of Research, Dyson
The Supersonic Nural™ hair dryer is available for purchase from 27 May 2024 at a retail price of RM2,399 at Dyson Demo Stores and www.dyson.my. The machine comes with five intelligent attachments in-box and other standalone accessories will also be on offer.
