Hot brushes promise bouncy blow-dries and voluminous curls – without the salon price tag. We put 11 to the test to reveal the best, from budget buys to wet-to-dry wonders

• The best hair straighteners for foolproof styling

There’s nothing like a beautiful, bouncy blow-dry from your favourite hair salon to put a spring in your step. However, if you don’t want to spend your days – or your cash – at the salon, then a hot brush could be just the styling tool you need.

As the name suggests, a hot brush is a round or paddle-shaped hair-styling tool that either heats up like a straightening iron or uses warm airflow like a hairdryer to dry and style your hair. Depending on the shape and size of the brush, a hot brush can give you anything from a straight, sleek style to volume and lift, or even red-carpet curls.
