Believe the hype. These trending Heat Styling Tools - from Hair Dryers and Men’s Shavers to Hair Straighteners and Hair Curlers - deliver on their promises, making them favourites of HAIRHOUSE Hair Styling Professionals.

1.    The Best Hot Brush: Bondi Boost Infrared Bounce Brush

This viral Thermal Brush answers the call of many at-home Heat Styling novices. With the ability to smooth and style hair on those ‘in-between’ days, it gives blow dry vibes without the heat damage, meaning your next bouncy blowout can be achieved easily, without the extra side-serve of frizz and flyaways.

What are the benefits of Bondi Boost Infrared Bounce Brush?

This Round Brush design is super easy to handle (just like a normal Hair Brush), making it an instant go-to for easy, no fuss styling.

The infrared technology gentle and consistently heats the hair with each pass of the bristles from scalp to tip, so there is no risk of heat damage on any hair type. Aloe-infused bristles also work to effortlessly add shine and reduce frizz.

Unlike some Hair Dryers and Heat Styling Tools which can remove moisture from the hair, this Blow Dry Brush contains negative ions which lock in moisture within the hair, resulting in a shiny, smooth, glossy texture along the hair cuticle.

Best for: Rebooting dry hair that is falling flat.

Top Tip for using Bondi Boost Infrared Bounce Brush: Use only on dry hair focusing on drawing the Heat Styling Tool downwards from the root to ends of the hair cuticle. For a fuller, bouncy blowout or beachy, cascading curls on long hair, twist the brush in a spiral shape at the ends and release.
