Why use a hairdryer brush?
Styling your own hair and then looking like you've just been to the hairdresser's is something everyone dreams of! But unfortunately, it's not that easy to achieve. Conjuring up the perfect waves or even curls in your hair actually requires some skill, or rather practice - especially if you only have a hairbrush or a Round brush has at its disposal.
Unfortunately, stinky hairbrushes have their limits when it comes to styling. A hairdryer brush can be a very good tool to facilitate and perfect styling. It is particularly practical that such hot air brushes are usually equipped with several attachments and accessories and can be used to style both curly and straight hair. They can also be used to dry the hair. A hairdryer brush thus combines all styling possibilities and, in the best case, is also gentle on the hair thanks to modern technologies.
How does a hairdryer brush work?
A hairdryer brush dries the hair like a conventional hairdryer, but at the same time it is child's play to shape the hair as desired. A hairdryer brush or hot air brush consists of a handle and the styling buttons that go with it. These allow you to make manual adjustments to the temperature.
In most cases, a hairdryer brush also has a gentle cold air function, which also enables longer-lasting styling. There are often several attachments for a hairdryer brush, which makes it easy to style curls, waves or straight hair. Once the hair is perfectly styled, it is recommended to finish the look with a Hairspray to fix the hair. Styling with hot air, however, should always be done in conjunction with an Heat protection spray otherwise the hair can dry out and break.
Why warm air makes hair easier to shape
Warm air weakens the hydrogen bonds in the hair. This is the reason why it can be shaped better in the end. However, if you use the cold setting at the end of the styling process, the hairstyle is fixed and stays in optimal shape longer.
Straightener and curling iron or rather a hairdryer brush?
Of course, if you want to style curls, waves or straight hair, you can simply use conventional appliances such as a curling iron or straightener. However, it is much more expensive to buy several appliances, and when travelling you also have to pack much more in your suitcase. But with a practical all-rounder, things are different: even combs and brushes become superfluous in your luggage if you have a hairdryer brush with you. Another advantage: a hairdryer brush is gentler on the hair than straighteners and curling irons because it works with lower heat. We therefore love hairdryer brushes!
Questions and answers
How do you clean a hairdryer brush?
With hot water, washing-up liquid and a small nail brush, by holding the appliance vertically. Caution: Of course, no water should get into the motor, otherwise the hairdryer brush will break.
Who is a hairdryer brush suitable for?
For anyone who wants to look as beautiful at home and on the go as they would in a professional hair salon.
Is it advisable to use special hair care when styling with the hairdryer brush?
Yes, you should definitely use a heat protection spray before styling. Blow-dry brushes use less heat than a curler or straightener, but you should still protect your hair whenever you use heat to prevent breakage and dryness.
