With makeup brushes, having at least 10 basic brushes is recommended. But with hairbrushes, you probably only need 2 or 3 brushes tops. Choosing the right hairbrush has everything to do with your hair type and how you style your tresses on a regular basis. The curly haired girl is not going to need a paddle brush most of the time, and if you have a pixie cut there’s no need for a detangling comb.
So, without further ado, here are the brush basics…
Paddle Brush: A multitasking brush great for detangling hair, ensuring that you get a smooth blowout, or adding volume to your crown.

Boar- and Nylon- Bristled Metal Brush: A versatile brush that has a use on both curly and straight hair. Boar bristles are great for creating tension, so if you have curly hair, this is a good brush for a blowout. If you have thick straight hair, this is also a good brush for adding curl.
