Choosing your Dyson Chitosan™ Pre-style cream: which one is right for you
Dyson Chitosan™ Pre-style cream is designed for anyone looking to retain their styles for longer, while maintaining natural movement and shine.
We developed four formula variants, each tailored to a different combination of hair shape and conditioning preference, so you can select for your hair type.
Choosing the right variant is important for the best experience, so read on for our guide to choosing the one most suited to you.
Designed for style retention and engineered with Dyson Triodetic™ technology, Dyson Chitosan™ Pre-style cream gives flexible all-day hold¹, without the crunch. It’s enriched with nourishing conditioning agents to suit your hair shape and needs and powered by chitosan – our hero hold ingredient derived from oyster mushrooms.
For long-lasting flexible hold, choose from Straight to wavy light conditioning, Straight to wavy rich conditioning, Curly to coily light conditioning or Curly to coily rich conditioning.
Each variant has been carefully developed to deliver optimum conditioning, without weighing down your hair.
To pick the right formula, ask yourself the following:
What is your natural hair shape?
Hair strands naturally have a shape – ranging from poker straight to tightly coiled.
Knowing this shape helps to choose the best products, devices and styles for its care.
Our Pre-style cream is tailored to two groups of hair shapes: straight to wavy, and curly to coily. To pick the right one, imagine your hair has been freshly washed and left to air-dry. What shape do the majority of the strands take?
Tip: If your hair has been permanently straightened or styled, refer to the shape your hair currently takes when air-dried.
Straight to wavy
If your hair strands naturally dry straight, form a loose wave, or a more distinct S-shape with some spiral curling, select a straight to wavy formula.
Curly to coily
If your hair strands naturally dry into loose spiral curls and ringlets, tighter corkscrew or S-curls, or a closely-coiled Z-pattern, select a curly to coily formula.
Do you prefer light or rich conditioning?
Which one you prefer may be based on your hair thickness (fine, medium, or thick strands), the condition of your hair, or personal preference.
Light conditioning
Our light conditioning formulas use grapeseed oil to nourish without adding excess weight to the hair. If your hair strands are finer, or your overall hair density thinner, select a light conditioning formula.
Rich conditioning
Using more intensely nourishing ingredients like castor seed oil, our rich conditioning formulas condition, soften and maintain shine. If your hair is thicker, in strand diameter and/or density, or is especially dry or damaged, you may prefer a rich conditioning formula.
Dyson Chitosan™ Pre-style cream is the foundation of your styling routine. Used on damp, towel-dried hair, it helps to lock in flexible hold and prime your hair ready for styling.
You can use the product on its own, or in combination with Dyson Chitosan™ Post-style serum – a weightless formula used on your finished style to smooth, enhance and define.
We developed our styling products with chitosan to create flexible hold solutions for every routine.
