Doing my hair has always felt like such a chore. I used to dread wash days because I knew I'd be spending the next hour blow-drying and styling my hair. Thankfully, I finally found a solution that cuts down my styling time and takes the stress out of my haircare routine: the Shark FlexStyle.I use the Shark FlexStyle almost every day, whether I'm blow-drying my hair, adding a few curls or getting ready for a special event. While its rival, the Dyson Airwrap, gets most of the attention, the FlexStyle offers many of the same styling capabilities at a fraction of the price. Better yet, the Shark FlexStyle is currently on sale for just $259 on Amazon — that's $90 off and includes four styling attachments.I've been using the hair tool for a few months now, and I can honestly say my hair has never looked better. What used to take me an hour of blow-drying and styling now takes just 20 minutes — even with my sometimes stubborn hair. It may seem like a small change, but it’s made a huge difference in my daily routine.One of my favorite things about it is it's versatility: It can straighten, curl and blow dry. I had to travel to a wedding recently and I simply threw the Shark FlexStyle in my bag and didn't have to worry about bringing a whole slew of tools. I was able to give myself a salon-quality blowout and bouncy curls in record-time.At full price, the Shark FlexStyle is $349 with all attachments included. After calculating how much I would spend for a few trips to the salon, the tool basically pays for itself. It also competes directly with tools costing double like the Dyson Airwrap — not to mention it's currently $90 off.The FlexStyle also uses circulated hot air rather than direct contact heat, which is how it styles without excessive damage. Hot air flows through the attachments while you work, smoothing or curling hair at lower temperatures than traditional tools require.If you've been considering the Shark FlexStyle, now is the perfect time to buy at just $259.
