The Dyson Corrale™ straightener can reach a maximum temperature of 210°C (410°F). It offers three precise heat settings to accommodate different hair types and styling needs.
Understanding Dyson Corrale™ Heat Settings
The Dyson Corrale™ flat iron is designed with intelligent heat control to provide effective styling with less reliance on extreme heat. It features three distinct temperature settings, allowing users to choose the optimal heat for their specific hair type and desired style.
These settings are:
- 165°C (330°F): Ideal for finer, more delicate hair or for touch-ups.
- 185°C (365°F): The most commonly used setting, suitable for average hair types.
- 210°C (410°F): The highest setting, best for thicker, coarser, or harder-to-style hair.
Dyson Corrale™ Temperature Settings Overview
To make it easy to understand the range of temperatures available, here's a quick overview:
Temperature Setting | Celsius (°C) | Fahrenheit (°F) | Best For |
---|---|---|---|
Low | 165°C | 330°F | Fine, delicate, color-treated hair, or touch-ups |
Medium | 185°C | 365°F | Normal, average hair types |
High | 210°C | 410°F | Thick, coarse, or unruly hair |
Why Precise Heat Settings Matter
Choosing the correct temperature setting for your hair is crucial for both effective styling and minimizing heat damage.
- Protecting Hair Health: Using a lower effective temperature can significantly reduce the risk of heat damage, breakage, and dryness, especially for those with fine, thin, or chemically treated hair.
- Optimizing Styling Results: Thicker or curlier hair often requires higher temperatures to achieve a smooth, straight finish. Conversely, very high heat on fine hair can lead to over-styling and damage.
- Flexible Plates Technology: The Dyson Corrale™ utilizes unique flexing copper plates that gather hair, allowing for more effective styling with less heat. This means you might achieve your desired style at a lower temperature compared to conventional straighteners.

Tips for Using Your Dyson Corrale™
- Start Low: Always begin with the lowest effective temperature (165°C/330°F) and only increase if necessary.
- Section Hair: Work with small, manageable sections of hair to ensure even heat distribution and better results.
- Dry Hair Only: Ensure your hair is completely dry before using any hot styling tool to prevent damage.
- Heat Protectant: Always apply a good quality heat protectant spray to your hair before styling.
By understanding and utilizing the precise heat settings of the Dyson Corrale™ straightener, you can achieve your desired style while prioritizing the health of your hair.
