Overview
Rolling through hair during a blowout, this round brush uses boar bristles to grip, smooth and add volume. The bristles spread natural oils along the strands for shine.
Boar bristles add body and shine while calming flyaways, giving a polished blowout at home. Heat details for the barrel are missing, so keep the dryer moving.
Who it's for
People styling at home who want smooth, bouncy blowouts get a light round brush with natural bristles. Those detangling wet hair should use a wide tooth comb first.
Pros and cons
- Boar bristles add shine
- Round shape builds volume
- Smooths frizz and flyaways
- Barrel heat tolerance not listed
- Single barrel size
- Boar bristles can snag wet hair
Performance notes
Volume depends on lifting sections at the root with the barrel while drying. Boar bristles grip and polish the cuticle, which smooths frizz. The modest barrel diameter suits curls and body more than very long, straight blowouts.
