But only for PEOPLE readers

I firmly believe that leaving the salon with a fresh, bouncy blowout is one of life’s greatest pleasures. But the price that comes with those appointments? Not so much. That’s why, after years of trial and error, I was ecstatic to finally uncover the key to creating post-salon volume at home: the Shark FlexStyle.

For the unacquainted, the FlexStyle is an all-in-one blow dryer, straighter, and curling iron that styles hair by sucking it around the barrel with heated air, resulting in beautiful barrel curls. And right now, during the PEOPLE Exclusive Flash Sale: Spring Refresh, it’s exclusively on sale for readers for the next 72 hours with the promo code PEOPLE25.

While I was first introduced to the tool when it rose to prominence on TikTok last year, it wasn’t until December that I decided to purchase one for myself. After conducting a ridiculous amount of research, I was sold on the fact that the hair tool was easy to operate and great at creating volume without damaging hair, according to reviewers — and I can now confirm that it does all of the above, and then some.

From today until Thursday, March 7, shoppers can save 25 percent on six-piece, seven-piece, and nine-piece Shark FlexStyle gift sets when using our code at checkout. Although each set includes a variety of frizz-fighting, volumizing, and curling attachments and accessories, they all come with the same Shark FlexStyle base and two 1.25-inch auto-wrap curlers — my secret weapons for at-home blowouts — so you really can’t go wrong with any option.

In addition to receiving my stamp of approval, the hair tool also got A-list backing when it was used on Anne Hathaway ahead of the 2024 SAG Awards. Much like in my own routine, hairstylist Adir Abergel first used the FlexStyle base to roughly dry the actress’ wet hair before attaching the auto-wrap curlers to create voluminous barrel curls, which he pinned, let sit, and eventually brushed out.

Hathaway and I aren’t the only ones who have used the Shark FlexStyle: More than 3,800 shoppers have given the tool a five-star rating across Amazon, Shark, and Best Buy for its “versatility,” “sleek and compact” size, and ability to work on hair types of varying thickness levels and textures. What’s more? Several reviewers on Shark’s website have even compared it to the pricier Dyson AirWrap, with one reviewer noting that the FlexStyle has made them “retire” their Dyson for good.

“I have purchased and tried almost every hair styling tool on the market,” a separate reviewer wrote on the brand’s website. “This one is the holy grail. I love that it's small, light, and all-in-one. It is easy to get a curl and the curl holds for days.”

A third reviewer shared, “I have thick hair and let’s just say it took 10 minutes to make my hair look like it’s fresh out of the salon. Highly recommend it!”

If you’re ready to start creating red carpet-worthy blowouts from the comfort of your home, keep scrolling to shop Shark FlexStyles while they’re on sale. But don’t dilly-dally! The event ends for good in just 72 hours.
