Which is better for a sensitive scalp?

The Nural. It has a dedicated scalp protect mode, which the Supersonic lacks.

Which dries hair faster?

Both top out at 100 °C with four heat settings. The Supersonic runs at 1,700 W versus 1,600 W for the Nural, so it has slightly more power on paper.

Can I use my old Supersonic attachments on the Nural?

Yes. The Nural supports older Supersonic attachments, though it ships with a presentation case rather than five attachments.

Is the Nural worth the extra over the Supersonic?

Only if scalp care matters to you. The Supersonic has the larger review base and a known price of $300.00 at Poshmark as of November 7, 2026; no Nural price was given.

No lifespan data was given for either. The Supersonic has a much larger review base, 36,344 Google Shopping ratings at 4.6 out of 5, so its reliability is better documented.

Can I travel with either one abroad?

No. Neither is dual voltage: the Supersonic is 127 V and the Nural is 120 V.
