The Creative Inspiration
I was sent the GLAMUP 6-in-1 Hot Air Tool after being scouted on my socials. My rose gold/pink hair tends to get noticed by brands and I’m happy about that! I take pride in my hair as it’s been a long journey to grow it out and to get it to stay healthy and shiny (grab my favorite shampoos/conditioners by Viori here at a discount that I owe my shiny, long hair to).
While I was sent this complimentary, I am always going to give you my honest opinion. Read on to learn my thoughts and get some hair styling ideas!

The Glamup attachments
Dyson vs. GLAMUP
I have the Dyson AirWrap Styler which currently retails for approximately $749.00. Well, when I bought it many years ago, it was around $500 and I got it on sale during a Sephora 20% off promotion (which is the best time to score high end beauty!). I do love my Dyson, however, if the new higher price is not in your budget, seriously get the GLAMUP!
This tool really gives great results!
They are both very high-quality styling tools, and while Dyson invented this hot air styling tool technology, GLAMUP has sort of (in my opinion) made the tool concept a little better for a lower price. I also have a Temu version of a multi-tool air styler, and it’s decent, especially for the low price, but it’s definitely not on par with the GLAMUP or Dyson.

Why Buy the GLAMUP?
So, besides a lower retail cost of $249.99 (my discount code CAROLYNBRADEN makes it $224.99 and my link will give you that discount or an even lower cost when on sale by the brand!), the GLAMUP hot air styler is actually a great tool that is easy to use. It truly gives you salon hair at home.
I have the GLAMUP AirCurler and it comes with the following attachments:
Longer Wrap Curler (2x)
Blow-Out Hair Dryer
Round Brush
SilkStraight Nozzle
Volumizer Brush
My Glamup Tutorial
One thing I noticed that was different than the Dyson tool was that the GLAMUP tool has 1.26” inch metal coated curling rods (one rod for curling hair in one direction and the other curls it in the opposite direction) I like this because it seemed to lock my curls in all day. The Dyson tool has a type of plastic rod, which works, but the curls don’t quite last as long.
See how I add texture to my hair with my own DIY CARAMEL scented sea salt spray below or via my YouTube channel @carolynjbraden:
It has 3 smart heat settings, a cool shot button (which I use at the end of a curling session to lock in the curl by cooling it quick) and has a high-speed motor which dries my long hair fast. You can use this tool on all hair types and lengths.

What Can You Do with the GLAMUP Air Styler?
I first like to use the hair dryer attachment to dry my hair to 75%. Then I use the following attachments for a variety of hairstyles:
Curls: If I want curled hair, I use the Wrap Curler attachments. This attachment “wraps” your hair around the barrel using the air of the tool, so no creases occur in your curl!

My curled results
Salon Blowout: If I want sleek hair/a salon blowout with rounded ends, I use the volumizer brush attachment.
Sleek Volume: If I want the ends curled and volume at my crown, I use the round brush attachment.
The round brush gives your hair volume and a bit of curl
Straight Hair: If I want straight hair, I use the SilkStraight Nozzle.
An easy daily hairstyle
Can I Use it On Dry Hair?
Yes, you can use this tool on dry hair to style it. I only wash my hair every 3 days, so on the days I’m not washing it, I spray a little bit of my moisturizing sea salt spray in my hair (the texture it gives locks in styles too), then use the brushes or curling rods or straightening tool. It will work well even if you don’t wet your hair as I’ve tested it with beautiful success!

Final Thoughts
I am very impressed with the high quality and salon-like results of the GLAMUP. My photos don’t lie….my hair looks great after using it! It feels luxurious at a lower price point than the Dyson and gives the same results. While both are great products, GLAMUP is truly great and can do it all!
