After consulting with a hairstylist, and narrowing down top-rated picks, we landed on the following best in show. We also considered if the brush can be used on wet, dry hair, or both, and also, the different hair types each brush is best suited for. With this in mind, we conducted hours of research on the best hairbrushes, evaluating each on design, bristle type, and brush shape. For wet hair, plastic is usually the way to go.Īccording to hairstylist Carolyn Aronson, a good hairbrush will have a "strong, comfortable handle." As for the bristles, she says boar or a blend of natural and nylon is best. "The fewer bristles, the more airflow you get, so less control but a faster blow-dry." Additionally, she recommends natural over plastic bristles and ceramic instead of metal barrels when blow-drying. "The more bristles, the more control (tension) you get when you blow out the hair," Savano explains. Your hair type and desired style will determine what kind you need. But as hairstylist Kat Savano notes, they're not all created equal.


While some people can get by with just a comb, brushes are crucial for anyone with long, thick hair.
