Shark FlexStyle deals are always good. The low-heat, multifunctional hair tool is often discounted, but not always by enough to shout about. That's why our dedicated beauty team have made it their duty to curate the best deals dropping on our favorite styling tool yet.

Shark FlexStyle deals are a double delight. Firstly, because you get to save on an incredible, versatile hair tool, which rivals the best hair dryers on the market. Secondly, because the FlexStyle is the most impressive Dyson Airwrap alternative on the market. 

Read the reviews: the five-in-one functions have more than impressed the experts, who have labelled it the hottest hair styler in every sense of the word, except the literal one. Shark's FlexStyle is all about heat-free technology, measuring its heat output 1,000 times per second to ensure consistency and minimal heat damage across all five functions.

Whether you're opting for bouncy curls to rival the most best hair curlers or smooth body and volume, the FlexStyle will ensure you have enviable locks all day long. The innovative barrel even boasts adjustable angles to make drying hair easy, ensuring you achieve frizz-and-fly-away-free results. Plus, there's expert attachments for curly and coily hair. The best part is, we've found discounts on all of these and curated the best ones for you here.

Today's best Shark FlexStyle deals

Here's a roundup of today's best deals on the Shark FlexStyle. If you want to make comparisons to the Dyson Airwrap, we've covered the day's best deals for the Airwrap over here. We know it's close hair-care heresy, but our beauty editor actually thinks the FlexStyle is better.

What's the difference between the Airwrap and FlexStyle?

If you're deciding between a Dyson Airwrap and a FlexStyle, there are some differences to be aware of: 

It's a little more versatile

Although the Airwrap has multi-directional curling wands, the Shark FlexStyle does come with a diffuser, which means it can be used on a lot more hair types when you buy it in a bundle. 

It works faster

Although the Airwrap is amazing for protecting your hair from heat damage, the FlexStyle does go that little bit more aggressively hot, which means you can really blitz through a blowdry when you're running late. 

It's easy to use

The Flex in FlexStyle comes from the hinged design, which means it can twist to be curved like a conventional hair dryer. This is really handy for replacing your hair dryer altogether, although you'll have to do without Dyson's Coanda dryer which hides flyaways. 

Our Senior Writer, Amelia Yeomans, has used both the Dyson Airwrap and the Shark FlexStyle for over a year.

Our Senior Writer Amelia has reviewed a huge range of hair products, from Olaplex alternatives to a range of hair stylers. 

"Compared to the Airwrap, the FlexStyle has a lot more power. This is exactly what I need for my dry, frizzy, and hard-to-tame hair. I can go from wet to straight in about 20 minutes, and the blow drier is one of the best I've ever tested. 

"It also comes with a diffuser attachment, which the Airwrap doesn't, so it caters to even more hair types and textures. But the biggest pro of the FlexStyle has to be the price - it still isn't cheap, but considering how well it performs, it is absolutely worth it and much more accessible than the Airwrap."

Will the Shark FlexStyle be on sale for Black Friday?

Whilst we never like to guarantee a good deal, we're almost certain that there will be some sort of deal on the FlexStyle for Black Friday and across the sensational Cyber Weekend, even if it's a bundle discount. 

Last year, we saw 30% off their refurbished FlexStyle at eBay, with it reduced from £299 to £174.30. You could have also saved £53 at John Lewis, Currys and Boots, so you can see that there were deals a-plenty. However, for those that missed the Black Friday bonanza, we've still seen relatively regular Shark sales throughout the year, so there will always be some sort of saving to shop.

Will the Shark FlexStyle be on sale for Prime Day?

Amazon's Prime Day and Big Deal Days are the best times to pick up a deal outside of the Black Friday sale season. Last year we saw 17% off the price, but this was only in the flash sale and the FlexStyle sold out almost instantly.

We watch the Amazon sales like it's out full time job (it actually is), so if there's a deal on the FlexStyle, we'll let you know about it. Our experts recommend shopping around first though. We'll do this for you, so that you don't get caught in a flashy, but superficial deal. 

What was the best Shark FlexStyle deal last year?

We wrote a whole feature on the Shark FlexStyle deal last Black Friday. Whilst a £54 might not be the biggest saving of the sale, it made the overall price of the FlexStyle an absolute steal. We also saw great savings on the Airwrap, but when both deals were said and done, the Flexstyle was still £185 less than the Dyson for Black Friday.
