The BaByliss Air Power Volume 2-in-1 Hair Dryer and Styler (AS95U) is a next-generation beauty tool that combines the power of a hair dryer with the styling precision of a blow-dry brush. Designed with wet and dry modes, ionic frizz control, and ceramic smoothing technology, it transforms your daily hair routine into an effortless, salon-worthy experience.
Fast Wet-to-Dry Styling
Powered by a 1000W motor, this styler offers quick, efficient drying and styling in one. Simply switch to wet mode for blow-drying damp hair or to dry mode to refresh, volumise, and reshape hair that’s already dry. In just minutes, you can go from flat or frizzy to full-bodied, smooth, and polished.
Frizz-Free Shine with Ionic Technology
Say goodbye to static and flyaways. The advanced ionic system eliminates frizz, seals in moisture, and boosts shine, leaving hair soft, silky, and healthy-looking. This technology works across all hair types, making it a versatile tool whether your hair is fine, thick, straight, or curly.
Ceramic Smoothing Fins & Polishing Bristles
The Air Power Volume doesn’t just dry – it styles with precision. The ceramic fins distribute heat evenly to protect hair from hot spots, while polishing bristles glide through strands to create a smooth, frizz-free finish with extra shine. Perfect for sleek blowouts or soft, bouncy waves.
Customisable Settings for Styling Control
Choose from 2 airflow settings and 3 temperature levels to create your perfect style. Whether you want big, voluminous blowouts or sleek, smooth hair, the adjustable settings give you the flexibility to suit your mood and hair type.
Versatile Wet & Dry Modes
Wet Mode: Opens warm air vents for blow-drying and styling damp hair simultaneously.
Dry Mode: Reduces airflow for reshaping and volumising dry hair – ideal for a quick morning refresh or before a night out.
Lightweight and stylish in a gold finish, the BaByliss Air Power Volume is both practical and beautiful, making it a must-have for your styling toolkit.
