6 hairbrushes to make everyday a good hair day

1. Best for backcombing

Create volume and body at-home with a brush that's specifically designed for backcombing. The rectangular shape and bristle placement make teasing tricky areas (like your crown) a breeze. Bonus: the pointy handle can be used for sectioning hair or defining your part.

2. Best for detangling

Specifically designed to detangle wet hair, this brush will go head-to-head (and win) against even the toughest knots. 

The Wet Brush, $18, The Spa Boutique.

3. Best for a blowout

The ceramic core of this round, thermal brush heats up like a curling iron to help you get a Victoria's Secret-worthy blowout at home. We recommend you use it in conjunction with a high-quality blow dryer. 

Bounce Large Round Thermal Ceramic Brush, $26, Sephora.

4. Best for creating shine

The luxe boar bristles on this salon-approved brush naturally create shine, soften strands and reduce frizz every with every pass. Trust us, it's worth the splurge.

5. Best for your scalp health

This flat paddle brush helps to detangle your tresses while simultaneously messaging your scalp.

6. Best for curls

Help manage unruly curls and reduce frizz without combing out body. A wide-tooth comb is also great for those prone to split ends.
