“We’re excited to build on the tremendous success of Shark FlexStyle and SpeedStyle as we introduce two exciting innovations to the hair styling,” said Danielle Lessing, SVP of Global Product Development. “Our innovation is focused on solving real consumer problems, and through our deep consumer listening we learned that the average woman washes her hair only 2-3 times per week, leaving a gap in styling tools for how to re-style dry hair and achieve that silky straight end style. FlexFusion allows you to embrace your natural hair, transform your style and now air straighten for endless looks any day of the week.”

With innovative new technology at the forefront, the new FlexFusion ensures fast and long-lasting styling without compromising hair health. By selecting wet or dry mode, the FlexFusion system intelligently chooses the right heat setting and optimal air speed for the attachment of your choosing. Developed by dermatologists and approved by stylists to protect the scalp from extreme heat, Scalp Shield Mode instantly adjusts air temperature to 50 degrees Celsius but maintains airflow velocity to ensure powerful and safe drying. When going wet to dry, FlexFusion measures and regulates temperatures 1,000 times every second, never exceeding 230F or reaching heat damage levels of 302F for fast, heat-damage free drying.

With FlexFusion Styling Technology, the new Wet & Dry Fusion Air Straightener transforms wet hair to silk press straight in as little as one pass.* It can also create pin-straight styles on already dry hair. As a result of its unique teardrop shape for better root access and end-to-end smoothing, and its combination of ceramic plates and air flow, the new Wet & Dry Styling Brush creates mega volume and less frizz**. Also included in this new system are four of Shark Beauty’s signature accessories that make professional-level styling at home fast, easy and heat-damage free***.
