The smoothing brush is ideal for taming, detangling, smoothing and drying hair. It is perfect for styling long hair, reducing static electricity and giving the hair a glossy finish. Use it to smooth hair while blow-drying or for precise styling, such as putting hair up in a bun or ponytail. For best results, hair should be about 80% dry before styling begins. Brush the hair from root to tip with quick, gliding movements and let the hair dryer follow the brush. Remember to use the nozzle on the hair dryer for a more concentrated air flow. If you want perfectly straight and perfect bangs, you can brush alternately left and right with the paddle brush. Combine this with blow drying on low heat and medium speed for a smooth and uniform finish.
