With the release of Netflix’s America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders this past June and the recent news that a second season is coming in 2025, the cheerleading squad has been a hot topic of conversation. We’re captivated by them for so many reasons: their undeniable talent, unwavering dedication and, naturally, their hair and makeup routines (this is a beauty magazine, after all). While we’ve covered the sweat-proof products they use to withstand the Texas heat and high-energy jump splits, it’s about time we talk about their go-to hair tool: the Dyson Airwrap.
A newly published Vogue feature takes readers behind the scenes of what it takes to get game-day ready and, as the outlet observed, the Dyson Airwrap is the must-have tool in their beauty arsenal. While it’s no surprise that this high-end styling tool is a fan favorite, there’s a specific reason why so many squad members swear by it. As reported by the outlet, “The Dysons solve a hyper-specific issue: Many of the cheerleaders return from practice with the front of their hair wet from perspiration. The Dyson can dry the distinct piece in seconds—which is all they tend to have.”
Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader Marissa Phillips confirmed this tidbit in a TikTok post this past September. “People always ask why we all use Dysons. Here’s the reason: So, I had never used a Dyson before I made the team and I actually didn’t have one my first year on the team, but the reason that a lot of girls use them is because of the hair-drying effect of it.” She went on to explain that their hair gets sweaty as they perform throughout the day, and the Airwrap is ideal because it dries and curls at once, saving them precious time before heading back to the field. Pretty genius, right?
