This heated round brush came on the scene just a few months ago, but it’s already gained a cult following. Because it’s so lightweight, your arms won’t feel fatigued while using it, and the tool is designed to evenly distribute heat for flawless styling—it’s basically foolproof. “It’s my go-to for quick, easy styling, with results that last from a long day at work right into happy hour,” says Quiñones.

An ELLE editor says: “I feel spoiled because the Mane It’s Giving Body Medium Hot Thermal Round Brush was the first heated round brush I ever tried, and it was a winner right off the bat. I’m usually terrified of round brushes because I’ve had one too many nightmarish experiences where my hair wound up tangled within them, so this format made me quite nervous. However, my hair glides through this tool’s bristles, and I end up with a voluminous, yet sleek and straightened look in minutes. I’m serious—I don’t think I’ve ever spent more than five or six minutes styling my hair when I use this brush.” —Carol Lee, ELLE.com associate beauty e-commerce writer
