The inventors of award-winning straighteners have proved that they know how to handle hair once again with The Airshot hairdryer. With anti-static technology, you can trade in frizz and flyaways for smoothness and style. The cool-shot button means you can secure your hair style in place, and signature healing minerals tourmaline and sericite help lock in moisture and seal the cuticle to protect your hair's natural shine.
