Shopping for hair brushes can be a most daunting task. Stand in any haircare aisle, and you’re met with a sea of grisly, bristly, hirsute hair brushes. Some fluffy; others fuzzy, the humble hair brush now comes in so many sizes, shapes and textures, you almost need a degree to decipher them.
So, we asked Hollywood hair whiz (and hairstylist to the Jenner / Kardashian clan), Jonathan Colombini, exactly what we should be looking for when buying our brush. From those perfect undulating Victoria’s Secret waves to capturing that intangible blow-wave bounce, here, a quick and easy guide on decoding hair brushes.
The ceramic Round Brush
Perfect for… VS style waves as the copper barrel when heated with the hair dryer lets the brush act as a curling iron.
Who should avoid… Wild curly hair.
Expert Tip: Use the cool shot on the hairdryer when the hair is wrapped around the brush which works to set the curl with the change in heat. For a long lasting wave.

the Vaddle Brush
Perfect for… a simple blowout. My fave at the moment.
Who should use… A 2-in-1 brush is a mix of the paddle and the vent brush, ideal for thicker hair longer in length because of the large base and air vents.
Expert Tip: The best for a half up, half down hair style, like “The Khloe”.
