    Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2023
    Verified Purchase
    When I first purchased this blow dryer in September of 2022, I hesitated. I waited. I debated spending well over $200 on a blow dryer - I've *never* spent that kind of money on a blow dryer, not even on my salon-quality Babyliss dryer (which I was replacing). However, I LOVE Shark's vacuums and have been a loyal customer for 20 +/- years, so based on my experience with the brand, the purchaser reviews, and the promises from Shark about their advanced technology + avoiding damage to my fine hair - I was finally convinced and bought it. YAY, yes? Not. So. Fast.

    It hasn't lived up to the hype. Not even close.

    First, this thing is H-E-A-V-Y. And when I say it's heavy, I mean it's the kind of heavy that you need to keep this thing on your nightstand or under your pillow as a weapon against intruders. Be prepared for arm fatigue for the first six weeks of use. Your arms and hands will legit get tired as you're drying and styling your hair. My momma didn't raise a wimp, so I sucked it up and told myself that I was doing it for my locks. My dominant hand and arm are now a bit more toned as a result (bonus, I guess?). The second thing is that the controls for adjusting the strength, heat, and cold air blast just aren't located in intuitive places or operated by more intuitive controls, so even after several months of use, I found myself still having to interrupt my drying and styling to make changes that you'd think you'd be able to do on the fly after a little bit of use. NOPE. Thirdly, I purchased the option that included the concentrated nozzle and the drying/styling brush. I have fine hair that's on the straighter side, so this seemed like the appropriate option since I won't be using a diffuser. However, the tools suffer the same design flaws as the dryer itself - nothing is intuitive to use as far as your hands are concerned, so I'm constantly interrupting my drying and styling to just try to get the #$&+ tools to work for me. Switch sides of your hair? Okay - stop drying your hair, fiddle with the styling brush to change the direction of it, and then you have to rotate the brush around to find the right position and angle for that part of your head - and you have to do that every single time you move to a new section. Every single time. Like you, I value you my sanity, so I finally just ditched the attachment tools all together because seriously friends, life is far too short for all of that hassle. It's a battle that we time-pressed users shouldn't have to engage in when you're one handed (because you're literally holding a two-ton brick of a hair dryer with one hand while simultaneously attempting to maneuver the controls and attachments with the other), and it was resulting in wasted time that we don't have. You'd think a company like Shark would have engineered all of this to be the kind of user-friendly tool that we've come to expect from the brand. But they haven't.

    Lastly, and here comes the worst and most insulting part: After owning this dryer for just six months and only using it a few times a week, it's suddenly started to shut off mid-blow dry + style entirely on its own. Now, you may be asking yourself why this would happen, as I did I (though I did it with some expletives because I only blow dry and style when I have somewhere to be). I can't be certain, but it seems like the unit is overheating. My filter is clean, though TBF, there's no great way to clean it. The unit doesn't open up so you can remove a filter and clean it thoroughly like you can with every other blow dryer I've ever owned. No, with this piece of modern engineering technology, you're supposed to only use something like a soft-bristled toothbrush to attempt to clean the filter from the outside, and FWIW, mine's never seemed dirty. Regardless, I've been doing that faithfully all along since I'm so used to doing it anyway, so the only thing that I can attribute it's premature demise to is that there's some kind of hardware component failure in the guts of the beast.

    This does have some kind of limited two year warranty through Shark, but it will have to be sent in to be serviced, and it looks like there's a charge of around $30 for this, of which I'm entirely salty about. An appliance this costly should have a manufacturer that stands behind it fully for at least a year. Add to this that it's also created the need for me to buy ANOTHER hair dryer, because my Shark HyperAIR doesn't work, and I still need a way to dry my hair for however long it's going to take to get this one shipped to them, fixed, and returned back to me. Yes, I'm cussing again.

    Unfortunately for Shark, this brought about a revelation, and since I love you all so much, and let's face it, you've read my review novella so you should be compensated for that effort: I discovered a hidden gem that's right here on this site and it will save you your hard earned dollars, some swears, some unnecessary workouts, and the need for a third arm when blow drying that hopefully none of you have. It's called the Remington D3190 that is also an Ionic-Ceramic Tourmaline blow dryer. It's lightweight, user friendly, fits nicely in your hand, has a THREE YEAR limited warranty, and is under...get this...twenty dollars as I'm typing my review. It actually dries my hair faster than the HyperAIR, which I think is because without all of the messing around and wasted time with controls and attachments, it's just a more efficient tool to use. Even if the price goes up to double what it costs at the time of me leaving this review, you'll still be money ahead, with nicely styled hair, and have far less exasperation in your life. You're welcome.

    Now, you're probably wondering what I'm going to do with my fancy (not so fancy) Shark HyperAIR after I get it back from Shark, and even if you weren't, I'm going to tell you: I'm going to get it fixed and see if I can't sell it on Marketplace or some other site. I cannot recommend it as an appliance after my absolutely horrendous user experience, and I hope to spare some of you from the same fate. It hasn't done anything to improve the quality of my hair experience in six months, though it has given me some fits. SAVE YOURSELVES. Save your sanity. Save your dollars. (Unless you're into really expensive paperweights. Then, meh, this might be for you?

    Review is long overdue. I bought this dryer in Dec 2023 after dropping and breaking my beloved Babyliss Pro and I've really been enjoying it. My medium length (at my shoulder blades) straight hair is problematic in that it's baby fine but dense, tangles in an instant, frizzes if you look at it funny and refuses to hold a style or retain volume for more than 10 min but this dryer can handle it all. It takes less than 5 min to fully dry my wet, not damp, hair; the concentrator attachment tames frizz and prevent knots; the brush attachment allows me to create volume and temp settings set the style. My hair is sleek and shiny with volume at the roots for much longer than my previous dryer.

    Some reviews have said it's too heavy and/or too loud but it's a similar weight to my previous pro ceramic type dryer and while a little louder than expected, it's nothing major. My only issues were that it's bigger than my other dryer, with a much longer handle, so it took a few uses to get comfortable with it (my hands are small) and it doesn't come with a storage box or bag so I had to find one large enough for the dryer and attachments.

    Those minor issues aside, I still give this dryer 5 stars and highly recommend it. Those used to a pro dryer will enjoy it and anyone using a traditional Conair or Revlon type will be blown away by the difference...sorry for the pun!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Died after 11 months, customer service replaced, died again

    Just as I hit the 11 month mark I began to get the overheating error.

    The blow dryer would stay on for just over a minute before failing.

    No amount of cleaning the blow dryer seemed to help.

    The fan felt like it was barely pushing out air.

    Got on the phone with customer support and 15 minutes later and $25 in shipping I have a replacement on the way.

    It's a great blow dryer when it works!
    I'm just worried about the longevity going forward.

    Update:
    ///////

    I've had my replacement Shark for 4 months, I've cleaned it after every single use following the steps in the Shark YT video and this one is beginning to fail as well.

    The issue is incompetent design on the filter which can not be removed or repalced.

    I've even attempted the filter deep clean (Another official Shark YT tutorial) and that did not help either.

    I believe I'm still in warranty but at this point I'm done.

    I just bit the bullet and ordered a Dyson.

    Shark as a brand has been soured for me.

    I'm pretty frustrated that the cheap $40 fake Dyson look alike I had years ago outlasted a $220 Shark.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product! Respects My Strands

    As someone with naturally long, straight hair, I've always been hesitant to use hair dryers. The fear of heat damage was a constant concern. However, a friend who often battles frizziness highly recommended the Shark HD112BRN HyperAIR Ionic Hair Dryer. Intrigued, I decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad I did.

    What surprised me most about this hairdryer is its ability to style my very long, straight hair. I didn't expect a hairdryer to have the power to do much on my hair, but this one proves me wrong. It dries my hair quickly and evenly, minimizing heat exposure. The ionic technology leaves my hair looking its best.

    My husband, who has thicker, curlier hair, is equally impressed. He's amazed at how quickly and smoothly it dries his hair, leaving it looking neat and tidy.

    I highly recommend this hairdryer to anyone who wants a powerful yet gentle styling tool. The Shark HD112BRN is a fantastic choice, and I'm spreading the word to anyone who asks.

    This is by far the best blow dryer I've ever owned. I have thick hair that just gets poofy and terrible looking when blow dried.This blow dryer not only dries my hair in record time, it looks and feels great when I'm done.
    It's a little pricey, but with the cost of all other dryers I've ever owned ,I should have just gotten this to start.

    I can't say anymore wonderful things. Don't think twice, buy it , you wont regret it

    This is a splurge but I love it. A little heavy but I got used to it and like that the weight is well distributed. Love the attachments too.

    I bought this hair dryer after taking my extensions out and feeling like I wasn't using my Dyson Airwrap much anymore because the hair dryer on it isn't very strong. The shark dries my hair in rough dries my hair in less than 5 minutes and the smoothing attachment gets my hair incredibly straight. I use a frizz fighting leave in conditioner with it and it works so well in combination. One of the best products I've purchased from Amazon yet.
