Science, not guesswork
At Dyson, we want to know everything there is to know about hair. We're obsessed with the science behind hair and use it to engineer our technology. No guesswork, no gimmicks, just tried and tested science.
The hair lifecycle
Each strand goes through the hair life cycle. A continuous process of growth, rest, and shedding that includes the anagen, catagen, and telogen phases.

Lifespan of a hair in years
-
Up to 100 hair strands are lost each day
-
There can be as many as 150,000 hairs on a human head
What your hair type means for you
Understanding your hair type can help you learn how to define and take care of your hair – and choose the best technology for you. We can roughly categorize 'hair shape' into four main groups.
Avoiding exposure to excessive heat
-
Maintaining scalp health
Dyson's Intelligent heat control helps protect the scalp barrier from excessive heat. Helping to maintain your scalp's moisture levels when styling.
-
Retaining moisture
Excessive heat can make hair more porous – meaning it can gain or lose water easily. The imbalance can weaken hair and reduce style retention.
-
Preventing breakage
Overexposure to excessive temperatures can weaken the bonds in the hair. Losing strength and elasticity over time can make it more prone to breakage.
-
Maintaining shine
Hair can look dull, if damaged, as a result of cuticles lifting and scattering light. But when hair is healthy and aligned, it reflects light evenly – appearing shiny.

Healthy scalp, healthy growth
Damaging your scalp barrier within the first two weeks when a hair follicle grows can impact the hair's development. Keeping your scalp healthy and balanced will help your hair to reach potential healthy growth.

Balancing act
The scalp consists of a complex microbiome, but an imbalance can lead to skin irritation, inflammation and follicle damage. Other factors can include genetics, hormones, pollution and extreme weather.

Cleaning up myths
Washing your hair regularly promotes a healthy scalp microbiome and can keep your hair free of pollutants. However, training your scalp to become less oily by washing it less' is a myth, so balance is key.

For each hair type
Consider your hair type when washing or treating your hair, as the requirements can vary. For example, some hair types may need different frequencies and formulations for the best results.
