Professional Styler Beauty Works

[Edelmira Bendorf]

Its difficult to scroll through #BeautyTok and not come across countless tutorials on how to get a bouncy blow-dry look at home. There's streams of content on how to use the Dyson airwrap, an abundance of videos on heatless curls and a whole plethora of other techniques on how to get the look. One hair tool that has received a lot of attention is the Beauty Works Aeris Multi-Styler.

So, having zero expectations ahead of trying the Aeris Multi-Styler, I embarked on a testing journey. And, it's safe to say that I was extremely impressed. At 220, it's still a hefty investment, but somewhat more affordable than other luxury stylers on the market. Here's my review...

Let's dive straight into the various attachments. As I mentioed before, I really didn't look into this tool a lot before getting my hands on it, so I wasn't sure how many attachments it would come with. However, I was very pleasantly surprised.

Each attachment is similar to those you get with the Airwrap (aside from the XL Round Brush, which I really liked). It has four heat and airflow settings, plus a cool shot. It also comes with a pretty white storage box and dust bag.

The Beauty Works Multi-Styler features impressively good technology and each attachment did exactly as it promised. It's worth noting though that the quality in feel and appearance of the Aeris Multi-Styler doesn't come close to that of the Dyson Airwrap or Shark Styler. But at nearly 200 cheaper, that's no surprise.

It's also worth noting that it is quite easy to accidentally catch the buttons and turn the heat off and instead hit the cool setting, which I did on a number of occasions. But after some getting used to, I didn't find it a problem.

So, is it is worth it? In my opinion as a beauty editor, having tried many many hair tools, it's definitely worth it. I was genuinely impressed with how well each attachment worked and was really happy with the results.

I was pleasantly surprised with how well my hair was smoothed out after using the Oval Volumising Brush. I sectioned my hair in four, roughly smoothed it out and dried the last 20% of the ends. It dried far quicker than I thought it would and gave a decent amount of shine, too.

After using the hair dryer and volumising brush, I then used the Airflow Curler, which was the attachment I was expecting to not live up to my expectations. I was immediately surprised by how well it worked.

I achieved these curls in about 3 minutes as I was late to meet my friends at the pub, so the tool lives up to its promise of "streamlining your routine with just one tool". It gets a huge thumbs up from me.

This product is a lot easier to use on long hair and I think it is designed for those with Beauty Works hair extensions to use. Due to the long length of the barrel it can be wound around to create long curls and for shorter hair more of a wave effect.

As the tool is quite long in length it can be heavy to hold for long periods of time, so the heat mat provided is very welcome. The product itself is mains powered, white and rose gold, and is 18.5cm in barrel length and 32mm barrel width.

If you are a novice to curling your own hair this styling tool is not the easiest one to get to grips with. Due to its length, it is quite tricky to hold onto short hair for long periods of time to ensure you get the curl. And styling the back of the hair is also rather tricky.

You can only use this styler on dry hair. Do not try it on damp hair as then the heat just fries it. Within 60 seconds of switching it on, it reaches the maximum 180C temperature but we found it worked best when turned down to around 140C.

As with all curling tools, you section your hair and then use the barrel to wrap the hair away from your face, and then hold it in place for a couple of seconds. You can then twist the hair in the opposite direction to create movement.

The difference between using a styling product and not using one is vast. I found if you spritzed the hair first the wave remained in place immediately, yet without product, the hair still looked flat. It was fairly easy to go backwards and forwards with the styler but it does take a lot of time. I found it impossible to create large bouncy curls but am sure with much longer hair it can work. For bob-length hair it was more of a wave effect I was left with, which looked very beach-chic.

The fact it has a temperature option is great as it enables you to ensure your hair does not get burnt and that you can be in charge of what temperature fits when it comes to getting the best result. Unlike other hair stylers we tried, the wand length makes it a bit less appealing to throw into your handbag and use on the go. Saying that however, it does come with a super stylish suede-looking carry bag so if you want to travel with it, you can.

You must remember to always use a styling product before using this tool as otherwise the curls drop out immediately, as many a reviewer has stated. If used without any holding products, it will be a waste of your time.

As well as the long length of the barrel being difficult to use on short hair, the other difficulty we had was holding it long enough for the curls to take at the back of the head. The heat protector mat is great for this as it means you can rest the styler down when sectioning off your hair but be prepared to do this a few times as it is not as light as you may be used too.

We loved the fact that despite the heat on the hair there were no fly away ends and also absolutely no frizz. The barrel is coated in ceramic to seal the hair cuticle and that helped produced a shine to the end look.

For hair extensions, I can imagine it works brilliantly, particularly because the barrel is very long. From start to finish, styling our hair took about 45 minutes but once you are used to the product I am sure it takes a lot quicker. Hair seemed a lot shinier than usual as the styler seemed to pick up loose strays of hair and give off a cleaner finish to the ends. However, the overall look did not last long so best used before going on a night out.

Dyson's innovative Airwrap styler was crowned the winner by our testers for its high quality feel and ability to create a glossy, frizz-free finish. This multitasker comes with six different heads, to create everything from poker-straight strands to retro curls.

Nearly all our panel said it glided easily through their hair, leaving it smooth and shiny, as if they'd had a blow dry. Testers achieved their sleek styles in record time (faster than straighteners in some cases), thanks to its 185C heat. Most found that it significantly reduced their flyaway hairs, too.

If adding oomph to your roots is your aim, try our second ghd entry. Our testers found it boosted volume, successfully straightening hair, and its high-quality design earned universal praise. Everybody found it satisfyingly speedy to heat up too, and the panel loved the luxuriously silky and shiny finish it gave them.

The design would make it tricky to curl strands (try the Dyson instead if that's what you're looking for), but it was ideal for straightening, with one tester commenting: "I absolutely love this product and wouldn't hesitate to buy it."

If you can't step outside without your hair turning into a ball of frizz, this dual-ended brush will be a game changer. Whether you want salon-worthy XL curls, or poker-straight ends, it helps you achieve both easily.

It managed to banish frizz and flyaways, while avoiding desert-dry ends. And most testers saw a boost in smoothness, softness and shine after use. It also avoided pesky snags and did a great job at nailing beachy waves.

It also impressed our panel with its effortless ability to fight frizz and flyaways, and allowed them to tackle often hard-to-reach areas such as the back of the neck and the roots, delivering a smooth finish.

It proved effective at straightening too, leaving our panel with poker straight strands. Not skimping on smoothness either, most said it left their hair silky and were happy with how fabulously soft their locks felt.

It heated up quickly and efficiently according to our lab test and testers commended its snag-free styling. Most achieved a shiny, smooth and soft finish, with less frizz, and it was a doddle to reach the back of the head too.
