A hair brush is like the trusty old coffee maker you’ve had since freshman year of college. You’re never really on the hunt for a new one unless your old one breaks, and then, you never know you needed a new one until you get one.
But, news flash—they have a way bigger impact on your hair than you might have thought, and there’s a different brush for every hair type and texture. Boar Bristle Brush? Perfect for all hair types, especially thin or fine hair. Paddle brush? Works best with long, thick, or frizzy hair. Round brush? Great for styling and adding volume. Vent brush? Ideal for those with thick, curly hair. Detangling brush? Perfect for preventing damage on wet and damp hair.
