AERATED vs BOAR BRUSHES, What's the difference
Physical Characteristics of an Aerated round brush:
A brush with a Metal Cylinder inside a center wire with short nylon bristles cut flat protruding through holes and are scratchy on the scalp.
Extremely lightweight and if the nylon bristles are short and sparse this gives you little gripping action and very little tension unless you work very hard to achieve it. This usually results in wrist Fatigue and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and tons of burnt hair.
Anti Static materials are added to the bristles but why are they needed? Usually the Aerated brush needs excessive heat to function which causes more static and damage to the hair.
Performance when drying hair:
Often stated these brushes speed up drying time by allowing air to pass through the hair section through the small holes, through the cylinder and out the other holes therefore drying hair faster. Think about it, when wet hair is wrapped around the barrel how can air from a dryer pass through the wet section of the hair and the holes of the cylinder and out the other side? This format Deflects Air in every direction causing frizz,and wasting a lot of your time not to mention the repetitive hand movements. This is not an efficient method of styling hair.
Cooling Down
Cooling down is NOT in this brushes skill sets, one of the Most important parts of styling the cooling. This brush with a metal core and short nylon bristles heats up fast just look at the additives one has added to this brush style to make it work. CERAMICS, COPPER, TOURMALINE, designed to deepen the heat into the hair as well as maintain the heat longer, for what reason? as the core of the brush stays HOT but does not Cool fast and it's the Cooling that sets hair.

Boar bristles will absorb Natural Oils from the hair which are a Non Chemical Anti Static approach to blow-drying. Those of you who prefer Natural this is the Natural solution to Static. Boar bristle brushes Cool down faster as the Boar bristles Do Not hold Excessive Heat.
