Have you ever gotten your hair done and wondered why the stylist needed to use so many tools? After all, a hairbrush is a hairbrush, right? The truth is, not exactly—while there is some overlap in the functions of different hair tools, stylists use a variety of combs and brushes for a reason. Size, shape, and the type of bristles on a brush are all important factors in what it’s meant to be used for, and a good stylist will choose which to use according to your specific hair type and goals.

If you’re looking to recreate salon-worthy looks for yourself at home, choosing the right tools is an important first step. Read on to learn more about some of the most popular brushes and how to use them. 

Combs

Wide tooth combs are a safe option for those with curly hair looking to protect their curl definition. If you’ve got fine or straight hair, however, you’re better off detangling with a Wet Brush, as combs can actually get stuck in tangles and end up causing breakage. You can also use an all-purpose comb to help smooth your hair when using a flat iron. 

Detangling Brush

Paddle brushes with flexible bristles are ideal for detangling hair of all lengths and textures. Brands like Wet Brush design their brushes to work on both wet and dry hair by using plastic bristles that move with your hair. They can also help to spread products like heat protectant and leave-in conditioner through the length of the hair.

Round Brushes

If you use a blowdryer to style your hair, you’ll want to do so using a round brush. Round brushes are available in wooden and ceramic, with boar or nylon bristles. All are designed to help to pull hair straight or create waves by providing tension, while the heat from the blow dryer sets the style. Ceramic brushes also have the added benefit of helping hair dry more quickly.

While using the right shampoo and conditioner is important, if smooth, shiny, tangle-free locks are what you’re after, a leave-in conditioner can make all the difference. As the name suggests, leave-in conditioners are not rinsed out, which allows them to provide hydration and nourishment to your hair throughout the day. They’re perfect for those who struggle with dry, frizzy, or damaged hair, and are easy to incorporate into even the simplest hair care routine. These are some of the best leave-in conditioners to help you achieve the hair you’ve been dreaming of. 

Briogeo Farewell Frizz Roscaro Milk Leave-In Conditioning Spray

Briogeo is one of our favorite brands for clean, nourishing hair care products that work. Its Roscaro Milk Leave-In Conditioning Spray is formulated with a blend of rosehip, coconut, and argan oils, to provide your hair with essential fatty acids that fight frizz and prevent split ends in all hair types for up to 48 hours.

OUAI Leave-In Conditioner

For protection against heat damage and serious hydration, OUAI’s leave-in conditioner will be your new best friend. It’s fantastic for detangling knots before a blowout and leaves hair with a refreshing citrus and sandalwood scent.

Amika Hydro Rush Intense Moisture Leave-In Conditioner

Amika is a climate-neutral, certified B Corporation that makes nourishing and strengthening hair care products free from harmful ingredients like parabens and phthalates.

As much as we enjoy the fun activities that summer has to offer, all of the sun, salt, and chlorine can really do a number on our hair over time. Repeated dips in the pool and days at the beach tend to leave our locks in a poor state of repair. When we’re looking to give it a little TLC, the first thing we reach for is a bottle of leave-in conditioner. There are countless products on the market nowadays, so whatever your hair type may be, there’s definitely a L.I.C. formulated for you. Here are a few of our go-to’s when we’re looking to show our hair some love: 

Best for Curly Hair

Those of us with curly hair love Not Your Mother’s Curl Talk Leave-In Conditioner to give our curls some extra hydration. It’s formulated with superfood oils that leave just the right amount of shine. It’s also an affordable option available at most drug stores.

Best for Frizz

We love Black-owned brand Briogeo’s Farewell Frizz Rosarco Milk Leave-In Conditioner to tame flyaways and keep our hair healthy all year long. It’s incredibly moisturizing and leaves your hair with a light coconut scent.

Best for Dry Ends

Celebrity Stylist Jen Atkin knows hair, so when she helped formulate a leave-in conditioner for her hair care brand OUAI, she knew what she was doing. OUAI’s leave-in conditioner works well on all hair types and even doubles as a heat protectant.

Few things give us more confidence than the feeling of freshly washed and blown-out hair. There’s nothing better than that straight-from-the-salon feeling, and even when we’re not able to make it to the salon, we still like to make sure that our hair looks clean and fresh. On those days when we’re short on time or not quite in need of a full wash, we turn to dry shampoo. The era of sticky, powdery dry shampoos is far behind us, and there are some seriously impressive products on the market these days that we love to use between shampoo days.

Moroccanoil Dry Shampoo

Moroccanoil has two different versions of their dry shampoo specially formulated to be used with either dark or light hair colors. Both products contain rice starch to absorb oil and product buildup while a touch of argan oil leaves a smooth finish.

Amika Perkup Dry Shampoo

Amika products don’t just look good on your bathroom counter, they also work exceptionally well. We love their dry shampoo because it works well on all hair types without leaving any kind of residue behind. It’s formulated to nourish hair while leaving behind a vanilla-citrus scent.

Drybar Detox Dry Shampoo

Who knows what’s required for that post-blowout look better than Drybar? Their dry shampoo is formulated to work with all hair textures while it moisturizes to prevent hair from breaking. It’s also great for adding volume and is available in four different scents.
