Should you wait for Black Friday?
Wait if you want to straighten from wet. If you only style dry hair, a flat iron does the job.
The cheaper picks: what they really did
The percentages are real Black Friday 2025 cuts, as reported that week. The right column is our 2026 forecast.
Dyson Corrale
Out since 2020
−26%Likely a moderate drop
Cordless flat iron with flexing plates that suit some hair types best.
Shark FlexStyle
Out since 2022
−40%Likely a big drop
Dries and styles; no flat-iron finish, but curls and smooths well.
What this means: The Corrale fell about as much. The FlexStyle fell further, but straightens with brushes, not plates.

Questions people ask
Can the Airstrait straighten wet hair?
Yes. It uses air rather than hot plates, so it dries and straightens in one go. One reviewer took thick wavy hair from wet to straight in about ten minutes.
Does an Airstrait style last as long as a flat iron?
Not quite. Reviewers found the finish holds less well than with hot plates.
Is the Airstrait heavy?
It weighs about 536 g in the hand, and reviewers call it bulky next to a flat iron.
