Your morning routine just got a lot quicker.
There is something wrong with people who wake up looking naturally put-together. You know, people who aren’t frazzled, as if their alarms didn’t just abruptly drag them out of the dream where the guy you like was just about to ask you out.
If you’re like me and wake up sporting a natural “rat’s nest” as my mom so endearingly calls it, the brush and straightener are probably a morning ritual to some extent. Even if you do wake up with some natural waves, or tamable hair, we all have those nights that where we want to rock a sleek, smooth, ultra-straight style for a night out.
So when I heard that a straightening brush had been created my first question was: What took them so long?
Here are our top five recommendations for the best straightening brush:
There is something about brushing your hair to style it instead of frying it between two burning-hot irons. This straightening brush has an LCD screen to adjust to the temperature you desire, depending on your hair type.
It heats up very quickly for efficient time management in the mornings. At only $33, we hope you’ve already opened amazon and made this purchase (right after you read the rest of our suggestions).
At a pricier $100, this brush was one of the first straightening brushes, an innovator in the field. The brush hovers around an effective 365 degrees and keeps you from burning yourself by color-coding the parts of the brush that are safe to touch (anything that is black is safe to touch!)
This brush is particularly effective on thick, wavy hair. As an OG option for a straightening brush, the Dafni is a good way to go.
As opposed to the pricier Dafni straightening brush, this product comes at a cheap $22. Similar to the other brushes, this brush has a standard temperature of 365 degrees, but can be raised to 450 degrees for thicker hair.
What we love most about this brush is that it has an automatic turn-off function that is perfect for people like me, who are constantly coming home from work to a straightener that is ready to scald me.
Remaining in the general price range for straightening brushes, you can buy this brush for $38 off of Amazon. This brush’s petite size makes it perfect for those who travel often, but despite its small stature, this brush is just as good at its job.
Again, in the reasonable price range, this product costs $29.99. Even at this price, this straightening brush not only straightens and smooths your hair, but it also hydrates your hair instead of drying it out like most straightening devices.
How can a straightener hydrate your hair? Using anion treatment, which emits negative ions. Your hair will be straight, smooth and moisturized.
Time to get rid of that straightener that fries the ends of your hair, ladies, and invest (about $30) in the future of your tresses with a sleek, straightening brush.
