Smooth and Straighten Hair with Round Hair Styling Brush
A round hair styling brush is a great way to smooth and straighten your hair while adding volume and movement. To Smooth and Straighten Hair with a Round Hair Styling Brush follow these simple steps;
Choose a round hairstyling brush which features Ceramic and Ionic technology as these hair brushes will provide faster styling and smoother results. Choose your hair brush size based on your hair length. The longer your hair, the larger the brush should be, for example, a 3/4″ or 1″ round styling brush is great for short crops, if you have medium length hair go bigger and choose a 1 3/4″ – 2 1/8″, for those who have long hair, past the shoulders a 2 1/8 or 3″ is the perfect size for smoothing and straightening hair.
- Apply a heat protectant to damp hair.
- Section your hair (if not super short) so that you can work from the underside and bottom layers of your hair first.
- You will want to set your hair dryer to high heat and medium air speed, you may choose to use a hair dryer attachment so that you can better direct air flow.
- Taking your round hairstyling brush, put it under a section of hair at the root and aim your dryer at your hair, at the same spot. As you slide your hair brush down the section of your hair follow it with your hair dryer. Repeat over the section of hair until dry.
- Continue to do this working your way to the side and upper layers of your hair.
- To create more volume when sliding the hair brush through your hair pull it straight up instead of downwards.
- Once hair is completely dry you may wish to apply a shine serum or finishing spray to fight frizz and humidity.
