Why do some of the buzziest hair tools cost $700, while others are gaining hype for a fraction of the price? Jill stacks up the Shark FlexStyle against the OG Dyson Airwrap Multi-styler, before taking the leading 2-in-1 straightening hair dryers out for a spin. Next, your daring host pops a hot brush in her brunette mane to find out whether TikTok’s latest obsession with “thermal brushes” for soft, feathered waves à la Matilda Djerf, is as dreamy and low-cost as it seems.

Finally, Carlene reveals the hot tool that she blames for her year of bad hair days. Next week, tune in to hear the 7-step hair routine she created to get her hair soft and shining again, with splurge-and-save buys that will work for every budget.
