What Are the Best Blow Dryer Brushes?

There are a few main benefits to using a hair dryer brush instead of a traditional blow dryer. They tend to have a lighter touch, which means less heat on dry or damaged hair. You’ll also be able to style your hair with ease when you use a dryer brush over other hot tools, since you won’t need to balance a brush in your other hand. Here’s a closer look at some of our top picks for hair styling tools that can’t be beat. 

Tourmaline 1.25" Ceramic Heated Round Brush

Best For: Smoothing Power

The Tourmaline 1.25 Ceramic heated round brush works for all hair types, and it’s best for smoothing out frizzy hair and helping you achieve volume and shine with each look. 

One of the benefits of the Tourmaline 1.25” Ceramic Heated Round Brush is that it locks in moisture and distributes heat evenly — aka, you don’t have to worry about damage or dryness from your heating tools. Pick out the Tourmaline 1.25” Ceramic Heated Round Brush in a fun and bold color like Ruby Red.

You’ll have the choice of three heat settings and hair flow speeds, so you can create a haircare routine that protects your locks and leaves you looking and feeling great every time.

L’ange Le Volume 2-in-1 Volumizing Brush Dryer 

Best For: Styling All Hair Types

Amika Double Agent

Best For: Frizz Reduction

The Amika Double Agent is the blow dryer brush to turn to when you need to reduce frizz, smooth, or straighten your hair. It works effortlessly for a wide range of hair types and textures, including straight, wavy, and curly hair or hair that is fine, medium, or thick.

After all, you deserve that feeling of fresh blow-out confidence every time you step out the door. 

In clinical studies, the Amika Double Agent was shown to actually reduce frizz by 30% and to make your hair 2x shinier than if you allow it to air dry alone. In part, that’s due to the negative ion generator, which makes your hair look super shiny, and in part due to the heated bristles, which protect your hair’s natural moisture, and keep it from becoming dry. 

Drybar Reserve 3-in-1 Interchangeable Blow-Dryer

Best For: Professional Results

What’s more fun than heading to the Drybar with your besties before a night on the town?
