Brushes
The shape of brush you choose will play a major part in the end result. Again, you don't have to spend a million bucks to look like, totally great -- just know what will work for your needs."If you're going for volume and curl," says Ring, "it is best to use a round brush with a barrel anywhere from 1 3/4 to 2 1/2 inches depending on the size of the curl you're after." Try the Marilyn Tuxedo Pro, $23.
If a straight, sleek look is what you're after, it's all about the paddle brush. "They're fantastic brushes, but you don’t need to drop $200 on a Mason Pearson," says Mari. "A $12 Paul Mitchell Paddle Brush will work just fine."
Oval brushes work wonders for creating straight styles with a hint of bend. Mari prefers a vented one so the hot air passes through the brush and speeds up drying time. Try the Oliva Garden Ceramic + Ion Turbo Vented Oval Hairbrush, $23.
