Peculiarities
First, let's figure out what brushing is. This word is derived from the English verb to brush, which means "to comb, brush with a brush." Initially it was called a round comb designed to add volume to curls, curl large curls, as well as straighten hair while drying with a hairdryer... However, the modern beauty industry does not stand still, and not so long ago a special 2 in 1 device was created - an electric hair dryer.
Features of the device:
- more convenient to use than a hair dryer and a hairbrush separately;
- with its help, you can easily straighten, wind or lift the hair at the roots, thereby creating an almost salon styling;
- in comparison with an iron, a hairdryer brushes straightens strands more delicately due to air circulation through special holes.

Usage Tips
So, you have chosen the right model and are ready to become the hair stylist of your own head. How can you create different styling with it?
- Volume. Wash your hair, towel dry your hair, apply heat protectant and comb through. Now divide the curls into strands (their width should be directly proportional to the diameter of the nozzle - the larger it is, the wider the strand) and, lifting them one by one, lower them onto a rotating brush at the base of the roots. When the hair is dry, pull the device down, going down the strand and pulling it slightly. Repeat this step until you have dried the entire hairstyle.
If you want to create not only root volume, then it is better to dry the strands by winding them a little on the nozzle. Just be careful not to tangle your hair.

- Curls. If your curls are already wavy, use the diffuser attachment and dry them in the same way as in the previous case. Owners of straight hair will have to do the following: carefully wind a narrow strand around the brush, turn on the device and wait just a few seconds, then carefully unwind the resulting curl without turning off the device.

- Straightening. The simplest procedure. Wash your hair, dry it, divide it into separate strands, then pull each of them with a hairdryer, moving from the back of the head.

And here is what professional hairdressers advise.
- If you're new to home hairdressing, don't get the most expensive item right away. Practice on a simple model, familiarize yourself with its basic functions and capabilities. The best option for beginners is a hairdryer with 1 or 2 attachments.
- It will be useful to read user reviews on various sites. This will help you understand the advantages and disadvantages of the chosen model.
- When styling and drying your hair, set the correct mode. It's easy to decide with it: the thicker and longer your curls, the more power you should use.
- Natural bristles on the attachments are the best option. Ionization, which protects hair from static electricity, will also be useful.
- You should not think that the more you heat the curls, the better they will keep styling. This can only harm them, but will not in any way affect the "life cycle" of the curl. Use cosmetic products for fixing (mousses, foams, varnishes, gels) or fix the hairstyle using the cold blow function.
