The Shark Glam HD6051 is pitched at people with longer hair who want three finishes from one kit: sleek and straight, loose waves, and defined curls. Its edge over air-only multi-stylers is the pairing of heat-controlled ceramic with high-speed airflow in the Silki and Glossi tools. For long hair that tends to lose shine or frizz after a blow-dry, that ceramic contact is the main attraction.

Our take
The Silki and Glossi tools
Shark describes the Silki tool as combining heat-controlled ceramic with high-speed airflow to give a silky-smooth finish on wet or dry hair, with up to twice the shine. The Glossi Hot Tool and Air Glosser is meant for high gloss blow-drys without frizz, smoothing, stretching and adding bounce on all hair types.
For long hair, a tool that works from wet saves a separate rough-drying stage, though the listing does not say how long a full head takes.
Gloss Lock, curlers and diffuser
Gloss Lock Technology is said to seal in shine on dry hair so styles last all day. Auto-wrap curlers wrap, set and curl hair, and a curl-defining diffuser handles natural curls without frizz. Footnotes to the shine and frizz claims are referenced but not shown on the page.
Curler diameters, wattage and settings are not given on this listing. The 1.83 kg item weight in the spec table appears to cover the boxed set rather than the handle alone.
Long hair considerations
Long hair benefits from tools that cover a lot of surface, and the ceramic Silki and Glossi heads are designed to smooth lengths in passes. The listing does not name a specific long-hair barrel, unlike Dyson's 40 mm options, so very long waves rely on the auto-wrap curlers. Shark lists the kit for all hair types.
Glam HD6051 against Dyson Airwrap Co-anda2x and Dreame AirStyle Era
The Dyson Airwrap Co-anda2x includes a 40 mm barrel aimed at longer hair and an air straightener, with app control. The Dreame AirStyle Era offers two 32 mm barrels, a straightening nozzle and a diffuser among eight heads. The Glam is the one to choose if you want ceramic heat in the mix for extra shine.
Verdict
Buy the Shark Glam HD6051 if you have long hair and want a sleek, glossy finish plus curls and diffusing in one kit. If a dedicated long barrel matters, the Dyson Airwrap Co-anda2x is the stronger fit, and the Dreame AirStyle Era is the air-only option with a straightening nozzle.
