Cloud Nine

Which Cloud Nine styler suits your hair type?

The right Cloud Nine styler depends on your hair type, length and the look you want to create. Here's how to find your match across our Cloud Nine collection at Hairhouse:

• The Original Iron for fine to medium hair: Fine and medium hair are the most vulnerable to heat damage, so temperature control matters. The Original Iron's 11 heat settings and Revive Mode® let you style precisely while keeping every pass kinder to your hair.
• The Wide Iron or Contouring Wide Iron for thick, long or curly hair: If straightening takes you forever, try a wide-plate hair straightener. Both cover more hair in fewer passes. Choose the Contouring Wide Iron if you also want to wave and curl with the same tool.
• The Slim Iron for short hair and fringes: Standard irons are awkward on shorter styles. The Slim Iron's 0.5-inch plates give you the control you need around the face and neckline.
• The Touch Iron for any hair type when time is tight: Its touch-activated system heats up almost instantly, so you're ready to style without the wait.
• The Curling Wand for curls and waves: Its 25mm Sericite®-infused barrel takes you from beachy waves to defined curls at a temperature that suits your hair.
• The Airshot hair dryer or Airshot Pro for a frizz-free blow-dry: Both use Sericite®-infused heating elements and Anti-Static Technology to reduce frizz as you dry. The Airshot Pro is the lighter, quieter option with magnetic snap-to-fit attachments.
• The Original Hot Brush for second-day hair: Five heat settings and Sericite®-infused bristles smooth and refresh your style between washes.

Pair any styling session with the Cloud Nine Luxury Dressing Brush to brush out curls for a softer finish.

What makes Cloud Nine styling tools different?

Every Cloud Nine tool, from hair straighteners to curling wands and hair dryers, is built around Sericite®, a mineral that locks in your hair's moisture and distributes heat evenly as you style. It's one of the reasons Cloud Nine has become a go-to for hair health, giving you a shinier, stronger result from every pass, regardless of which tool you reach for.

Getting your temperature right matters just as much. That's why every Cloud Nine hairstyling tool comes with customisable temperature controls, so you can style at the right heat for your hair and avoid the kind of damage that builds up from using too much heat over time.

Cloud Nine has always done things a bit differently. Susan Powls founded the brand in 2009, and every tool has been designed and manufactured in-house from Harrogate, UK, ever since, giving Cloud Nine full control over every material and every standard. And because the tools are built to last, Cloud Nine also runs a recycling programme for old styling tools to keep them out of landfill.

How to straighten, curl and wave with Cloud Nine

Good styling starts with good haircare. Straightening, curling and waving with Cloud Nine all start the same way. Apply heat protection, set your temperature and let Revive Mode® do the rest as you style.

To straighten, prep dry, detangled hair with Magical Quick Dry Potion. Turn your iron on, and Revive Mode® kicks in automatically. Check your ideal heat with the Cloud Nine Temperature Calculator, then smooth the plates through each section from root to tip in one fluid movement.

To curl your hair with a straightener, reach for the Contouring Original Iron or Contouring Wide Iron. Their curved plates glide around each section cleanly, so you get defined curls or flicked ends without the creases a flat plate can leave behind.

For defined curls and waves, a dedicated hair curler gives you the most control. Your 25mm Sericite®-infused Curling Wand is ready to use in under a minute, with three heat settings from 125°C to 175°C. Wrap sections around the barrel, alternate the direction for a more natural effect and adjust your section size for tighter curls or looser waves.

For a frizz-free blow-dry, use the Airshot or Airshot Pro section by section with a round hair brush from root to tip, then finish with a cool shot to set your style.
