Yes, they look fantastic when wielded by a salon stylist, but when you’re late to work and trying to rip one out of your hair, they can seem like a heinous tool designed only to torture our poor strands.Key specs – Material: Ceramic barrel; Barrel size: N/A; Bristle material: Ceramic; Heat settings: 2; Cool blast: Yes; Cord length: 3m; Auto switch-off: No When testing, we first note the styling method (ceramic hot plate or hot air styler), and for ceramic hot plate brushes we measure the time the tool takes to heat up after being switched on. We consider the time taken to style a full head of hair (noting the hair length and texture on which we’re testing), and evaluate the overall ease of use of the hot brush. We take note of the softness, shine and feel of the hair after styling, and how well styles last over the course of a typical day. Finally, we confirm the weight and dimensions of the hot brush and note any extras included in the box.

Remember to use a heat protector spray before styling as well. Not only does this keep your hair from frazzling, but it can also help minimise frizz and prevent colour fade.

For ultimate flexibility, look for a professional-length cord of at least eight feet. Less expensive models tend to have shorter cords, but that may limit your ability to style freely — you may not have an outlet near a mirror!

Sporting a unique oval shape and large bristles, the One Step adds volume at the root of the hair, smooths the lengths and creates a bouncy curl at the ends – a winning formula for a bouncy blow-dry. Hot airflow is boosted by clever ionic technology to protect hair and speed up styling, while the ceramic barrel ensures even heat distribution and a glossy finish.Detangle:Before going in with the blow dryer brush, you'll want to start by detangling your hair. With this in mind, Ellis recommends "combing out each section to ensure its tangle free before going in with the brush." He continues, telling Insider, "To get that smooth look, make sure you are using enough tension!" Heat damage is a side effect of using any heated hair tool, but there are some precautionary measures you can take.

Smaller barrel brushes are generally better for drying and styling shorter haircuts, whereas larger brushes work best for longer hair. Additionally, medium and large brushes can be used to straighten hair or create loose waves while drying.

The shape of the blow dryer brush directly impacts the type of result you'll get. For example, paddle dryer brushes, such as Dyson's flat attachment, are great for producing straight, sleek blowouts. On the other hand, round or oval-shaped brushes, such as the Revlon One Step and Drybar Double Shot, are ideal for bouncier, more voluminous blowouts. If you love the look of professional blowouts — but hate spending a small fortune on them — then consider investing in a blow dryer brush. This versatile tool pulls triple duty as the best hair dryer, straightening brush, and styler. Put simply, blow dryer brushes are designed to save you time, effort, and energy when it comes to styling your hair, and, fortunately, they're suitable for all hair types, textures, and lengths. Hot brushes, straighteners and wands all have their purposes, but hot brushes are very easy to use and great for smoothing out the hair while creating body and movement,’ explains Michelle Thompson, an award-winning Afro and textured hair specialist. There’s no doubt that the Dyson Airwrap Complete is expensive; but ease of use, the variety of styles you can create, and the benefits to hair health make it a worthwhile investment for those who heat-style hair regularly. Unsure which brush to choose? “The size of the brush makes all the difference,” says Gorka Arraras, Head of Creative at Charles Worthington Salons. Your hair length will determine what barrel size will work best for you. In general, a wide barrel will give tons of volume, but it might not work so well on shorter hair, while a smaller barrel will give more of a curl.Californian beauty brand T3 launched its stylish and versatile AireBrush Duo in 2021 – and, offering gentler heat settings, it’s ideal for hair that’s fine, delicate or heat-damaged. The smaller the brush, the more root lift (on short hair) and a tighter curl," says Gorka. "The medium size brushes will give volume on longer hair and a soft wave. A big round brush will give a good amount volume and a slight bend to the end, giving a very soft, flowing look,” he explains. Remove Excess Moisture: Once you've brushed out your hair, remove excess moisture with a microfiber towel. Ellis tells Insider that removing the excess water makes the hair "more manageable" when using the blow dryer brush. He also notes that if you air-dry or rough-dry hair, it can lead to frizz; however, you also don't want to go in with soaking wet hair since it'll take longer to style. Instead of giving us sleek, dreamy waves and XXL volume at the roots, too often hair just ends up snarled up and knotted round the barrel – which isn't ideal when you're time-poor and crap at hair anyway. Twenty minutes spent coaxing your hair free? No. That sort of patience needs to be stored up and reserved for when we’re going to town with a hair tong or fashioning yourself a snazzy updo. Though versatile, straighteners often struggle to create the bigger, bouncier waves that a hot brush can produce. That said, they're better for tight waves and curls, so the choice really depends on your desired style.
