05 Aug Best-Of Review: How To Choose The Right Hair Brush For Your Hair Type And Style
Redefining the art of hair brushing, Marilyn Brush was designed with the professional stylist in mind. As the first brand on the market to introduce a distinguished hourglass design, the brush line has grown to include round brushes, flat brushes, and also hair tools. The Marilyn Brush’s global artistic director Terrence Renk has put together the ultimate cheat sheet with a description of each brush to help guide in choosing the right brush for you!
If you’re focusing on the best finishing and detangling tools or the best brushes to create curls/waves, look no further than The Marilyn TUXEDO PRO Brush, starting at $21. The durable barrel with high-heat resistant coating has a foam handle grip and the reinforced natural boar bristle adds natural shine and polish. The bristles are set in an hourglass shape to create volume and body. This brush can handle any texture hair, length or density. It is the perfect finishing brush for added volume and smooth natural finish. To create shiny sleek blow-dries keep the brush moving in rotation through hair and focus heat towards the ends. Available in 5 sizes: 1¾”, 2”, 2½”, 3”, 3½”
The Marilyn DOUBLE S PRO Brush, starting at $26, is great for straightening. The Double S Pro is designed to smooth and straighten medium to thick hair. Boar bristles are set on a perpendicular to draw hair from all angles. It’s a cool tool to create smooth straight shine. Available in 4 sizes: 2”, 2½”, 3”, 3½”
The Marilyn FLATTER ME TOO Brush , $21, creates a flat-ironed, sleek and smooth look. This brush combines nylon and boar bristles to detangle and smooth strands. This is a great brush for head hugging styles and side swept bangs or a blunt fringe. The mixture of bristles and shape of the brush make it a great scalp stimulator for thick coarse curly hair. Available in 4 sizes: 2”, 2½”, 3”, 3½”
The Marilyn Ovali Pro Brush, starting at $21, has an oval barrel design with a boar hair bristle. The Ovali Pro is a perfect tool for finish styling fine, medium and coarse hair – flip up or curl under. Available in 3 sizes: 2”, 2½”, 3”
The Marilyn JELI Ceramica DELUXE Brush, starting at $26, is the ultimate round brush for straight or wavy hair. It uses a new ceramic and metal injected technology for its heat holding barrel with both natural boar bristle and nylon pins for detangling, polishing and getting through the thickest of hair. Absorbs excess heat from blow dryer and distributes heat evenly throughout the hair, allowing the user faster drying time while using lower heat settings. The brush’s periwinkle ceramic and metal injected barrel creates greater heat distribution while maintaining its core heat temperature for up to 10 minutes. Available in two sizes: 2” and 2½”.
The Marilyn HOT FLASH Brush, starting at $26, is the newest innovation in ceramic brushes; smoothly blow out any hair texture. This is one tough brush with a ceramic coating over an aluminum barrel with barrel melting point of 1,112º and the double 66 nylon bristles have a melting point of 460ºF. Smooth and set all textures of hair, this is your brush for tough-to-tame textures. The ceramic heats up allowing the inner hair to set and create more volume. Available in 3 sizes: 2”, 2½”, 3”.
The Marilyn New Yorker Brush, starting at $31, has an exquisite wood base with premium natural boar bristles and nylon quills to help stimulate scalp and distributes natural oils. The soft, durable pneumatic pad eliminates static and gives hair a “finished” look for all hair types including extensions. Available in three sizes for any hand size and comfort.
The Marilyn Flatter Me Paddle Brush, $20, is great for detangling and smoothing all types of hair textures, wet or dry. The perfect brush for prepping hair, not a finishing brush.
The Marilyn Teasing Brush, $17, is for those who love big hair. This teasing brush with its tight bristles enables you to create lasting volume with a single push of the hair towards the roots. It backcombs hair to create volume for everyday or special occasions. For fine hair work on larger sections, with thick hair take finer sections. Push hair down with a single stroke rather than up and down, then smooth out the top with bristles to hide any backcombing evidence.
The Marilyn “Thermal Kiss” Brush, $20, is the ultimate “must have” tool for short hair styling. The Thermal Kiss brush creates voluminous barrel sets for even the shortest of hair. The Thermal Kiss brush contains ionic bristles and a vented metal barrel for easy and even airflow. The Thermal Kiss transfers heat from the dryer to the barrel’s surface, allowing the user to use lower heat settings while keeping the hair polished, set and static free. The red wooden handle is designed for comfort during us and the small barrel keeps hair secure, smooth and polished. Available in an x-small 1” (25mm) diameter brush size
