Simply put, we think the Dyson Airwrap is a great hair styling tool that's way too expensive.

With that said, we get the appeal of a multi-styler that minimizes the damage from heat styling. That's why we recommend going for an Airwrap dupe in most cases, especially if you can grab one on sale. The Shark FlexStyle is by far the best dupe of them all, providing a nearly one-to-one experience in our testing with nearly identical attachments and Coanda air technology, and as of April 1, it's on sale for just $239.99 at Amazon (down $60 from it's $299.99 price).

Even at full price, the FlexStyle is half the cost of the Airwrap's $600 MSRP, making it's $239.99 sale price even more of a good deal. At Amazon, both the curly and coily hair system and the straight and wavy hair system are on sale (you can also grab this deal at Best Buy, but only in the curly and coily hair system). The former system comes with a diffuser in addition to two 1.25-inch auto-wrap curlers, a styling concentrator, and a round brush, while the latter system swaps the diffuser for a paddle brush.

In total, you get five attachments as compared to the Airwrap's six attachments, plus the base can be used as a standard hair dryer on its own. You will have to swap between the auto-wrap curlers to change the direction of the curls (a feature Dyson did away with in their upgraded version of the Airwrap), but we didn't find it too annoying in our testing.

This isn't the lowest price the FlexStyle has hit — that honor would belong to its Cyber Week low of $199.99 — but it's still better than recent low prices we've seen it hit, and puts it just $10 above the price of buying a refurbished FlexStyle from Shark's website.

In other words, if you've been waiting on buying the FlexStyle and don't want to wait for the next major shopping holiday, we anticipate this being one the best deals you'll see for a while.
