What kind of roundbrush would you recommend? I can't decide which size to get and which kind of bristles...

[birchboxtv]

@Randamaye Our Co-Founder, Katia, uses one similar to Olivia Garden's Ceramic + Ion Thermal Hairbrush, available at Ulta and we also love Fekkai's Wooden Handle Round Brush, which is a bit pricy but a good investment. Size should be based on how you are blowing out your hair. Straight and voluminous- go for a larger size. For curls, the smaller the brush, the tighter the curl will be. Hope that helps!

@birchboxtv cool, I will definately try this when I do my hair tomorrow! Can you do a video on curling and straightening hair?

[birchboxtv]

@MissBeautyGal Great suggestion, have you seen our video, How To: Curl Your Hair With a Straightener? You can find it on our channel. We'll definitely be doing more hair videos in the future!

her bangs were already done at the beginning....

@MissBeautyGal Hi! Mollie's bangs were blow dried but not styled at the beginning of the video. Jeff's technique is so easy you just need a bit of heat to get a great swoop!
