Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days doesn’t officially kick off until Oct. 6, but the deals are already starting to roll in — and this Shark SpeedStyle Hair Dryer is one I’m especially excited to see discounted.
asserted
I → kick → Oct.
The event runs through Oct. 7, giving Prime members 48 hours to shop, but there’s no reason to wait if you’ve been eyeing a new blow dryer and the price is already this good.
asserted
price → run → dryer
I’ve tested dozens of blow dryers over the years, and Shark has some of the most powerful yet accessible ones on the market.

Shark → test → market
The SpeedStyle is a great example: It delivers the kind of high-velocity airflow that gets wet hair dry quickly, while still being lightweight enough not to exhaust your arm halfway through a blowout.
asserted
hair → deliver → blowout
The SpeedStyle is designed for straight and wavy hair and comes with styling attachments that let me do more than simply rough-dry my hair.
asserted
me → design → hair
Its airflow can be adjusted across three settings, while three heat settings give me more control over how I dry and style.
asserted
I → adjust → control
One of the biggest reasons I keep coming back to Shark hair tools is that they offer impressive performance without pushing into the ultra-luxury price range.
asserted
they → keep → range
The SpeedStyle originally retailed for around $230, so even when it’s not on a crazy big sale, it’s considerably below high-end competitors such as Dyson’s hair dryers.
asserted
it → retail → dryers
With Prime Big Deal Days arriving Oct. 6, I’d keep an eye on this deal while it’s available.
