When it comes to styling your hair, it can take years of practice to find out what really works for you. And one thing is for certain: Getting the hairstyle you want starts with choosing the right hair brush.

Finding the best hair brush may seem fairly easy, but if you scope out the hair-grooming section in a beauty supply store, you'll realize just how many options there are. But whether you're interested in a round brush or bristle brush or prefer a boar brush or classic paddle brush, choosing the right tool is all about getting the job done without ripping your hair out, strand for strand.

We combed through your reviews and put together a comprehensive list of the brushes you rated top knot-ch (had to). From affordable picks by Goody and Revlon to luxe options by Mason Pearson, these are the 11 best hair brushes that shine.

Why it's great: Still looking for that everyday brush? Readers say it's time to call off the search because The Body Shop delivers a hair brush that not only "stimulates the scalp" (yay, hair growth), but is also soft and good for everyday use. "I love their combs and brushes," writes one user. "I have the larger brush, and it is the best. I never use any other brush since I found these." Another reviewer adds that the brush "helps add volume" to her hair, and the soft bristles feel nice on her scalp and hair. "All in all, it's a very good product," a reader summarizes.

"Given that it perks up my bathroom counter, detangles my hair and only costs $8.99, I'd recommend it to bargain-hunters."
