Stylists love ceramic options because they heat up and act like a curling iron — though, not nearly as hot or damaging — to beautifully set the shape and curve while smoothing and styling. This round brush is made with boar bristles and nano ionic technology that helps reduce frizz and add shine.
This popular round brush is said to have bristles made with ions that repel water — causing moisture to quickly evaporate. The ceramic base helps retain heat more efficiently to improve drying time and help smooth hair.
These temperature-resistant nylon bristles are infused with ions to be soft and gentle on hair. They may reduce frizz and make for a faster blow-drying time. Baby round brushes get right in under bangs for pro-like styling. Plus, they can help battle unruly cowlicks, said Garrison. You can also go into small sections at the crown of your head with a blow dryer to work in more volume. Although this brush is technically made for men, it's perfect for getting underneath small bangs to add volume and lift.
This tiny, thin brush has holes that allow heat from a blowdryer to easily reach your hair. Do you ever put in a set of hot rollers or work a curling iron over your hair, only to have your brush pull out most of the style afterward?
This type of brush smooths, straightens and adds shine to hair. The boar bristles distribute natural oils from the scalp through the hair shaft, creating a polished look. Garrison specifically recommended this iconic brush which was made to add a finishing touch to your waves. This brush from GranNaturals is perfect for thick or long hair. If your hair is thin, this similar one from Dovahlia comes with a comb and is designed to groom thin, fine and normal hair.
Let's be real. When you're creating your wish list of beauty products, brushes are usually at the bottom. We get it — that fancy new blowdryer is a much more exciting addition to your hair tools collection. But while the brush you use every day is easy to overlook, having the right brush is super important when it comes to caring for your hair.
Selecting one that's optimal for your hair type will give you the best results — like less breakage and more good hair days. These are generally used by hair stylists, or people who frequently use a blow-dryer. Boar bristle brushes are popular because of their ability to redistribute the natural, healthy oils in the scalp, which enhances hair health and creates smooth, shiny locks.
Every type of hair can benefit from a boar bristle brush, but a percent boar bristle brush with soft bristles is a good choice for people with fine, thinning, or aging hair. Nylon bristle brushes are made from a synthetic material that reduces static and effectively detangles thick hair. Curved brushes are ergonomically designed to fit the shape of a human head. Most are made of lightweight plastic and contain vents, which make them a good choice for travel, the gym, or anytime you want to dry your hair quickly.
For vegans or anyone who wants the benefits of a boar bristle brush without using animal products, some brushes combine other natural fibers, like agave, with synthetics to achieve a bristle that looks and feels like boar bristle.
Mixed bristle brushes combine the shine-enhancing effects of boar bristles with the scalp stimulation and easy detangling of nylon or wire bristles. This combination can be most effective for those with long or thick hair. The wide base of paddle brushes enable them to cover a lot of ground quickly while smoothing hair. A vented brush is the best choice for quickly blow drying soaking-wet hair. The vents allow hot air to flow through, reaching all layers of hair. Vented brushes can reduce static during blow drying because they allow heat to flow through the brush, helping to illuminate static and frizz.
Ionic brushes are said to reduce static and frizz by adding negative ions into hair, and metal combs may fight static. Round brushes are a good choice for blow drying hair and styling loose waves. Teasing brushes are small and designed to be used at the crown to add volume and texture to fine or limp hair, and it can create the illusion of fuller hair , which may be attractive to those experiencing hair loss. Rat tail brushes and combs are teasing brushes with a long, thin stem that can be used for separating and lifting sections of hair to tease and create more volume.
Wide-tooth combs have thick teeth with space between them. They can be used on thick or curly hair when wet. Straightening brushes are a mix between a hot iron straightener and a paddle brush. A mixed bristle brush is made of a blend of natural boar bristles and synthetic materials, such as nylon, and is truly the best of both worlds. The boar bristles help distribute oil from the scalp evenly from root to tip, while the nylon bristles help detangle your locks.
This makes it a great choice for maintaining medium-to-thick hair. With the proper round brush, you can nail a salon-worthy blowout at home. The placement of the bristles helps tame frizz and delivers the perfect amount of bounce to your hair.
