Blow dry like a boss with the best hot brushes.
Hot Brush Buying Guide
Trending but timeless, the blow dry is back and bigger than ever. And the best part is that a bouncy blow dry doesn’t mean a trip to the salon when you own a hot brush.
These hot air heroes combine a hair dryer with a brush to bring volume, body and shape to hair. Another major perk is that they can style damp and dry manes, making them game-changers at reviving second-day hair.
Not sure where to start? Our no-fuss Hot Brush Buying Guide is made up of the best hot brushes for different hair types, textures and budgets to help you discover a tool that’s perfect for you.
Key Technology
Ceramic
Ceramic is a smart choice if maintaining hair health is top of mind. This element distributes an even heat, which gently dries hair from the inside out to protect the exterior from excessive heat.
Ionic
Generators release millions of negatively charged ions to neutralise positively charged water ions, which reduces static, frizz and flyaways. Ionic technology also helps to seal the hair cuticle, boosting shine and hydration.
Barrel Size
There’s a range of barrel sizes, all creating different looks. Larger barrels are better for smoothing long hair, while smaller sizes bring bounce to bangs and work a dream on shorter lengths.
Brush Shape
Different shaped brushes create different looks. A round brush shapes a bouncy, curled style, oval brushes lift roots, smooth lengths and add cute flicks to the ends, and flat brushes are ideal for smoothing hair.
