The Best Hair Straighteners And Multi-Stylers For Every Hair Type

One of the newest and most technologically advanced straighteners on the market, the ghd Chronos hits the perfect sweet spot for both price, performance, and advanced features. The professional HD motion-responsive styler has been specifically designed to respond to your individual hair, allowing ultra-fast styling that transforms in a single stroke.

The straightener also continuously adapts to your styling movements to maintain an ideal safe styling temperature and the ergonomic design makes it simple for beginners to nail both straight and curly styles with ease.

Having already earned its accolades, it will come as no surprise that the Dyson Airwrap comes top of our list for the best multi-styling tool. While it may be a major investment, its innovative technology and ease of use make it a worthwhile one for those looking to create salon-worthy hair at home.

Thanks to its versatility and lack of extreme heat use, it’s also the perfect choice for those with damaged hair who want to reduce the amount of excessive heat styling in their routine, or for those looking for an all-in-one styling tool that can master anything from curling, to smoothing, volumising and beyond.

While this won't leave your hair dead-straight like a traditional flat iron, if you want to reduce frizz and replicate the kind of smooth and sleek hair that can typically only be achieved with an in-salon blow dry, this is the tool for you. Featuring digital temperature controls, ionic technology, and auto-shutoff, this smoothing paddle brush will give you a sleek, frizz-free look in one easy step.

New to our lineup, this game-changing product from Dyson has been named one of TIME’s 2023 Best Inventions. This innovative tool takes hair from wet to straight in 25% less time without relying on hot plates. Instead, powerful, directional airflow smooths and dries hair for a sleek, everyday look.

With two styling modes for both wet and dry hair, plus a root drying feature to pre-dry and add volume, the ghd Airstrait makes styling your hair even easier.

If you're looking for a more affordable hair straightener, you can't go past this option from Remington. Coming in at under $40, this budget-friendly straightener features digital variable heat settings, and a turbo boost function (for fast heat-up) and leaves hair shiny and static-free. Hands down, one of the best straighteners of 2024.

Highly praised for its versatility, the Shark FlexStyle seamlessly combines styling and drying functionalities, making it an MVP of multi-styling tools. Coming in at a more wallet-friendly price than some other multi-styers on the market, this tool is a one-stop shop for all of your hair styling needs, allowing you to both dry and style your hair without any other tools.

Those new to multi-styling tools will also love how user-friendly the Shark FlexStyle is, meaning you’ll be on your way to better-looking hair faster thanks to the minimal learning curve.

ghd have finally done it—they've created a two-in-one wet-to-dry hair tool that will take your hair from wet to sleek, glossy and full of bounce with no heat damage. Hallelujah.

Taking their 21 years of heated styling and drying expertise, they've combined technology and function to come up with the Duet Blowdry Hair Dryer Brush, and it's a game changer, giving you sleek, frizz-free hair that lasts. The combination of a powerful motor and ghd's innovative Heat-Air Xchange Technology allows you to simultaenously style and dry hair whilst achiving a salon-worthy blow dry at home.

While most travel-friendly straighteners sacrifice functionality and performance in turn for size, this new release from ghd changes all of that. Delivering the same performance as your standard ghd tool, this rechargeable straightener will allow you to style your hair both at home and on the go thanks to its portable (read: handbag-friendly) and powerful design.

While this is no longer the only cordless straightener available on the market, we're still convinced it's the best. If you straighten your hair daily and you've got the cash to splash, this portable and battery-powered straightener is packed with heaps of unique hair-care technology that will make your daily heat styling worth the splurge.

If you've got naturally thick or textured hair, achieving a super straight look can often take way too long or cause excessive heat damage. The L'Oréal Professionnel Steampod 4.0 uses steam-powered technology, that performs exceptionally well on coarse, thick, and curly hair.

This easy-to-use tool releases steam into the hair as it straightens, providing a longer-lasting finish and an overall healthier result.
