A generous gift for a woman who blow-dries her hair most days: Dyson's smaller, lighter Supersonic r with five attachments, though it is hard to justify for someone who mostly air-dries.

Why it works as a gift

A hair dryer only works as a gift when it replaces something used every day, and that is exactly the case for someone who blow-dries before work. The Supersonic r is Dyson's newer, professional-format dryer: the retailer listing describes it as 30% smaller and 20% lighter (by body weight, against the original Supersonic), at about 0.7 lb, and its shape is meant to make the back of the head easier to reach.

Its intelligent heat control measures airflow temperature more than 20 times a second, and the five attachments (a concentrator, a diffuser, a wide-tooth comb, a flyaway attachment and a Powerful Air attachment for fast drying) remember her preferred settings. That makes it a considered upgrade rather than a gadget: it improves a daily routine she already has.

The obvious alternative in our edit is the Dyson Airwrap, which styles as well as dries. Choose the Supersonic r if she already has her own way of styling and just wants a faster, lighter dryer; choose the Airwrap if she wants curls or volume without separate tools.

Who it’s for

A wife or partner who blow-dries her hair before work most mornings
A mother whose old dryer is heavy and tiring to hold
A sister or friend with curly hair who uses a diffuser, for a milestone birthday

Skip it if

She mostly air-dries her hair
She already owns a Dyson Supersonic and is happy with it
She travels abroad often and needs a dual-voltage dryer; the US model is rated at 120 V

Giving it

Abt lists a two-year parts and labor warranty; keep the receipt
If she already owns the Airwrap, a different gift will be more welcome

The facts

In the box: Dryer, Powerful Air attachment, Pro Concentrator, diffuser, wide-tooth comb, flyaway attachment

Consider instead

Dyson Airwrap i.d. — For her if she wants to dry and style with one tool
