VS Sassoon Air Style Brilliance

I’m a fan of hair styling products and ways to do my hair in different ways. I decided to get this when it came out. It’s a great set and way more affordable that others on the market.

It has lots of different attachments that you can use to curl, straighten and blow dry. A fantastic idea!

They are all good quality and work well. I use the curler the most. I haven’t used the straightener much as find my other tool best for that. But I love the all in one convenience to take this away on holiday- it’s a great idea.

A winner from VS Sassoon.

Well, what can I say? The VS Sassoon Air Style Brilliance comes in a gorgeous black case that has compartments for each of the 7 hair styling attachments and the base, so you can keep it organized and stored together. It has a good, strong handle so you can easily take it away. Each attachment creates a different style, on the cord is a tag which shows what each attachment does. The attachments click on and off the base easily and have a tab at the top to hold so you don't burn yourself (there is also a handy glove in the case to protect your fingers). I was surprised at how versatile the VS Sassoon Air Style Brilliance was, it has a hairdryer attachment which dries my hair quicker than my standard hairdryer, the straightener attachment is a nifty comb like tool which glides through the hair leaving it straight and silky. I love the curling and wave attachments, they effortlessly style the hair with hot air which feels a lot gentler on the hair than iron type stylers. Since owning this I have packed away all of my other styling tools as this ticks all the boxes and is the only one I need! I definitely recommend the VS Sassoon Air Style Brilliance!!!

So I've never tried a hot air styler, but lowkey have always wanted to!

My first thoughts were 'wow what a big box' (that's what she said...). Inside it a gorgeous case, like I need to take a beat and bask in the quality of this case! It's stunning. Inside it has compartments to hold each brush attachment and the base.

So the 'just a dryer' attachment is fine, does what you'd expect - gives you a dryer wand to wave around your head and dry it.

The straightening brush is really good, really effective, I was impressed.

The curling wand is so so. It's less curling, more waving.

The smoothing brush feels like a cheap hair brush, but I have to give it to VS Sassoon, it does smooth out the frizzy wizzies.

The volumising brush is comically massive. Like if you've ever wanted to pretend to be a popstar, this is the brush to sing in to. It is huge. And the volume it gives is HUGE.

Which leads me to the last two brushes, the shaping and texturising brushes. This is how Dolly got her big hair. I couldn't stop. I kept brushing and shaping and volumising until I had the biggest, fullest hair I've ever had.

I mean, who needs a fancy salon when you can have the Air Style Brilliance in your life? With this tool, I could rock any style, from a wild and crazy updo to a sleek and sophisticated look, and everything in between.

The thing I think I'm really impressed with is, with just a light spritz of fixing spray and my hair held fast until I wanted to brush it out - be it at the end of the work day, or the morning after a night out.

So go ahead, give it a whirl and let your hair look amazing, 9-5 and beyond!

This is an absolute game changer for me ! i love it. I was never one for drying my hair but now i think the dryer attachment is my absolute fave on this it drys my hair soo quick. I also love how quiet it is and super quick to use no waiting around for anything to heat up you just turn it on and go! I also love the blow dry paddle brush & the straightening tool is amazing. It is so compact you can just pack it all up and take it with you wherever you are going i just love that fact you have you everything there you need, and it is lightweight nothing heavy all in one carry case. The brushes are not harsh on your hair or pull it out ( i have real bad hair loss at the moment and have not noticed any extra hair at all in the brushes in fact there is less that my normal brush). I could never go back to using my normal hair dryer or hair straightener now! doing my hair has gone from almost 20 mins every day to about 5-10! there is not one attachment i don't love on this and i have been using them all!

I think at this point I own every kind of hair tool under the sun - most of which I don't use because they're bulky and take up too much room in my small space so end up being placed in my closet where they are forgotten and left to gather dust. The introduction of the VS Sassoon Air Style Brilliance will now see the majority of these tools being gifted to friends - because this is pretty much all I need to create my best hair ever.

First of all, I love that it has interchangeable heads so you can dry, style, straighten or curl your hair with just the one main wand. I also appreciate the bag it comes in - it easily stores the heads and wand and doesn't take up too much room.

I must admit that initially I wondered if this would be gimmicky. Could a hot air tool really do it all? Including drying my hair? I own a VS Sassoon hair dryer and it's amazing, so I didn't know that the hair dryer attachment could be anywhere near as good, especially as the air it blows out isn't as strong - I was wrong. My hair dried far more quickly than expected, and I was also able to easily get my hair to a point where I could finish off my look using the styling heads.

The styling heads are simply brilliant. The highlight for me was the straightening comb - it efficiently and quickly straightened my hair but not to the level where it was poker straight and fake looking. It looked chic, but natural. The curler attachment quickly heated up and produced big, beachy curls on my hair. I appreciated the inclusion of the glove as I can imagine that without it, burnt fingertips would be a possibility. I used each of the brush heads and found they were great for making my hair more volumised and sleeker looking.

All in all, this is a winner. I would absolutely recommend it, and am so grateful to have been given the opportunity to trial it. Thank you Beauty Review and VS Sassoon.

The Air Style comes in a really attractive but highly practical zippable carry case. I love how each part and attachment has its own dedicated slot. Now I just need to be disciplined enough to make sure I put it away properly. In saying that, it's quire a sizable case so not sure I'll be packing the whole thing when travelling by air, but great for popping in the car.

It has a really long power cord so no need to stand right on top of a mirror. Which helps to be able to reach out and to the back of your head - but that's where a few extra hands would come in handy.

There are some really good videos on their website that explain what each attachment does and how to use it. Most of them show someone else using it on a model, so yeah and extra get hands or an extra person would be great as it does take a bit of trial and error to use it on the back of your own head, especially with long hair (mine is mid-back length).

It recommends that your hair is roughly dried to about 80% before using the styling attachments. I did often revert to my hairdryer for this as I didn't quite find it powerful enough to dry on its own. However it's more than powerful (and hot) enough when using the attachments.

I have very fine straight hair but this thing creates volume! It also shapes well and quickly. I'm yet to be convinced how well it will curl as I've not been brave enough to try that yet. My hairdresser has spent the best part of a decade trying to curl my hair and has finally given up, defeated as it just doesn't hold curls. But this might be my saviour?

The unexpected find in the case was the heatproof glove - seems such a simple thing, but greatly appreciated as without it it would be unbearable to have your fingers so close to the heat for so long. It's great that it can be used on either hand too - althoughbit is a bit on the small side (I don't have massive hands and it's a bit snug!)

Definitely recommend though - just be prepared to need a bit of practice!

By far the most excited I have been to trial a product! The packaging looks sleek and high end - the box it comes in has a basic rundown on the styler itself and lists the uses of the 7 attachments. Its worth reading (if you are a hair styling newby like me). The bag is gorgeous! And practical - it has a handle to carry and inside it has dividers for each attachment and the styler itself. The first attachment I used was the straightener on a friend with curly hair and it was quick to heat, easy to use and most importantly worked beautifully. The second attachment I used was the curler attachment, I used the heat protection glove for this one and it was another success - the size of the curls were pretty and perfect! I used clips to hold the curls because it took me a bit of time to get through my hair. My favourite attachment by far is the texturiser - my sister is a hairdresser and she showed me a quick and easy way to add a very soft pretty wave with it. Dry your hair, take a small section, wrap your hair around it from the mid-length, hold it vertically and keep twisting it while pulling downwards softly. The hair looks like all you're doing is twisting it straight - but when its removed you give it a shake and it falls apart in very pretty soft waves. The smoothing attachment is so easy to run through your hair quickly to freshen up and smooth your hair out. On the other side..I tried to use the dryer attachment but it was too weak for me so I removed the attachment and just used the hand piece without an attachment and its better but still weak when compared to a decent hairdryer. I have long hair and no fringe so the shaper attachment isn't one for me but I can see it would be great for a fringe - my daughter used it and her fringe looked so pretty. Overall I would buy this (and was looking at a similar hair tool prior to this trial) its easy, works fantastically for styling and gives you so many options!
