To make the most of your &#8216;do, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.avianking.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hairstylist and men&#8217;s groomer Avian King<\/a> provides some pointers on how to use them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A good leave-in, thermal protectant is a must, especially if it is long, fine, or color compromised,&#8221; she begins. If you have curly, frizzy, or textured hair, she adds that a creme leave-in can be especially efficacious.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, she recommends blow-drying your <a href=\"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/your-guide-to-getting-bangs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bangs<\/a> first. Her game-changing tip is to blow dry them to one side, then the other, before drying them straight. Trust us, this <em>works<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, King warns\u00a0<em>against<\/em> using brush heads with metal bases in order to avoid thermal damage. &#8220;I strongly encourage all hair types to stay away from metal [round brush heads]. If you do anyway, do\u00a0<em>not<\/em> use it on wet hair.&#8221; Because it can become so scorching hot, it should only be used on hair that is 85-90% dry already, so save it for the finishing touches.<\/p>\n<p>Now, shop our favorite dryer brushes below.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" itemprop=\"image\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-167532\" src=\"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image-610x566.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"418\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/09205642\/image-610x566.jpeg 610w, https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/09205642\/image-239x222.jpeg 239w, https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/09205642\/image-248x230.jpeg 248w, https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/09205642\/image-768x713.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/09205642\/image.jpeg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.target.com\/p\/revlon-salon-one-step-hair-dryer-and-volumizer-black\/-\/A-50854658\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Revlon Salon One-Step Hair Dryer and Volumizer $41.99<\/a><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">This is the cult-favorite dryer brush that set the dryer-brush craze into action.
