BLOW DRY BRUSHES
A blow dry brush dries and styles your hair in one step, so you can create a salon blowout at home with one tool in your hand. The ghd Duet Blowdry is our hair dryer brush. It takes towel-dried hair to a smooth, bouncy blowout with no heat damage¹ and 50% more shine². It also uses up to 40% less energy³ than a ghd hair dryer used with a brush. It is designed for all hair types, for salon quality results on wash days. Shop the range below.
What a blow dry brush does, and how it compares to a hair dryer
A blow dry brush, also called a hair dryer brush, combines a dryer and a round brush in one tool. Warm airflow dries each section while the barrel and bristles smooth and shape it, so drying and styling happen in the same pass.
With a standalone blow dryer, you dry hair with one hand and hold a round brush in the other, then often go over each section twice: once to dry, once to style. A blow dryer brush does both in one step, which makes voluminous styles easier to create with a hand free to section your hair. On the Duet Blowdry, that one-step routine uses up to 40% less energy³ than drying with a ghd hair dryer and a brush.
A plain blow dryer still suits people who want fast rough-drying before they style with other tools. For that job, compare our ghd hair dryers.
Why choose the ghd Duet Blowdry
The Duet Blowdry dries and styles your hair in one step with no heat damage¹.
-
Dry and style in one step, no heat damage. Heat-Air Xchange Technology™ converts energy from the airflow to heat the barrel plate and the snag-free bristles. No thermal hair damage was detected after 100 cycles of 4 passes on thoroughly towel dried hair¹.
-
More shine and frizz control. The elliptical barrel plate holds a cooler 120°C. Lab tests measured 50% more shine² than naturally dried hair, and women in ghd's consumer test reported no frizz⁴.
-
Up to 40% less energy. One tool replaces a hair dryer plus a brush, which uses up to 40% less energy³ in drying mode.
-
Controlled temperature. Two heat sensors check the temperature 400 times a second to keep the heat settings steady for a smooth, even blowout.
-
All hair types. ghd designed the Duet Blowdry for every hair type and texture.
Does the ghd Duet Blowdry suit your hair type?
Yes. The Duet Blowdry is designed for all hair types. Start every blowout on thoroughly towel dried hair rather than dripping wet hair, and apply a heat protectant first. Then adjust your technique:
-
Fine or thin hair: lift the blow dryer brush at the roots as you dry to add volume.
-
Thick or long hair: work in smaller sections so the airflow reaches every layer, then run the dryer brush through the lengths.
-
Short hair: keep the barrel close to the roots to create shape and lift.
-
Curly or wavy hair: the brush smooths curls into a soft, bouncy blowout. To keep your curl pattern instead, read our guide to the best dryer for curly hair.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can you use a blow dry brush on wet hair?
Yes, once it is towel dried. The Duet Blowdry is a wet to dry blow dryer brush built to take damp hair to a finished blowout. Towel-dry thoroughly first for the quickest result, then apply a heat protectant before you start.
Is a blow dry brush better than a hair straightener?
It depends on the finish you want. A blow dry brush gives a bouncy blow wave with volume. A hair straightener gives a sleek, straight finish on dry hair. If you want a sleek finish from wet, a hot air styler dries and styles in one tool.
Are blow dry brushes bad for your hair?
Any heat styling needs care, so ghd tested the Duet Blowdry for it. No thermal hair damage was detected after 100 cycles of 4 passes on thoroughly towel-dried hair¹. For the full method, read how to blow-dry without heat damage.
Can I travel with the ghd Duet Blowdry? Is it dual voltage?
The Duet Blowdry operates at 220-240V, so it is not dual voltage. Before you pack it, check that your destination uses 220-240V power.
Should I choose the Duet Blowdry brush or the Duet Style styler?
Choose the Duet Blowdry to create a volumised blowout with movement. Choose the Duet Style for a straightened wet to dry finish. If a sleek finish is your everyday look, see the ghd Duet Style hot air styler.
