Shark Glam Hot Tool Air Styling Drying System, with Silki Straightener & Glossi Glosser, for Drying, Curling, Straightening & Glossing with Diffuser, Starlight Dream

Overall, I find this air styler much more comfortable to hold and maneuver than traditional hair dryers. Having a tool with multiple attachments that could potentially replace the need for several different hot tools was the initial draw for me. I don’t style my hair as much as I used to because using a blow dryer followed by a flat iron is too much effort that I don’t care to put in, unless I have a special event. However, the Shark Glam has re-ignited my desire to get myself put together before I leave the house. Being able to blow dry my hair and then swap attachments for the Coanda auto-wrap curlers has cut down my styling time while still giving me effortless bounce and curls to my hair.

Full disclosure, I am a dad with shorter/somewhat sparse hair that I just brush and let air dry, but both my wife and young adult daughter have different hair styles that beg different drying needs. gleefully did all the testing, and I was in charge of organizing their thoughts and reporting their feedback. Out of the gate, they were super excited about their new Shark Glam Hair Styling & Air Drying System and gleefully did all the testing over the last week. I was in charge of organizing their thoughts, which are provided below along with some descriptives of the major components.

The Shark Glam Ceramic & Powerful Air Styling & Hair Dryer System is a really nice package of great tools for most hair lengths. I recently (just prior to receiving this) cut my long hair to chin/shoulder length so the timing to dry and style it is shorter and somewhat easier. This dryer/styler is a cool kind of all-in-one product. Let me start by saying that I have many products by Shark from other blow dryers, to air purifiers, to vacuums and Shark puts out a great product.

I will start by saying that overall I think the Shark Glam Ceramic system is a great product. If you are searching for an all in one styling & drying tool for you or a loved one, this is a great choice. I wear my hair (what's left of it!) in a "Flattop" and so this hair dryer works great for me in that it takes about 60 seconds and I am done! But, my wife and our daughter were more than happy to help me test this out from their viewpoint! Both ladies remarked on the build quality that is evident in both the main body of the unit as well as the attachments and my wife like me, is a senior citizen and had no problems handling the dryer.

When I first opened the box, everything was neatly packed and felt high quality without being over the top. The attachments looked solid and well-designed, and easy to figure out. I have thick, wavy hair, and drying and straightening has always been a chore. Normally, it takes me close to an hour to get my hair dry and somewhat straight. With this Shark Glam hair styling system, the process was cut in almost half the time. I started with damp hair and used the air straightener first. The combination of airflow and heat-controlled ceramic plates made a noticeable difference and my hair felt smooth without feeling like I was frying my hair. Next, I tried the curling attachment. It wrapped the hair automatically, which was surprisingly simple, and the curls look natural without feeling stiff. The FrizzFighter finishing tool was a nice touch for smoothing flyaways and gave a polished look. If there is one thing to note, it would be the weight when the straightener attachment is connected, the tool feels a bit heavy. It’s not unbearable but you notice it after a while. For me, it’s a minor trade-off for the performance. It would have been nice also if it includes a travel pouch to easily carry these tools on the go. Overall, the styling felt faster and less stressful, and my hair looked shinier than usual. For someone who struggles with thick, textured hair, this tool set really changes the game. It’s not cheap at $350, but compared to the Dyson alternative, it’s still a better deal for what you get. I highly recommend it if you want to save time and still get salon-level results at home.
