About Tools & Brushes
Paul Mitchell Tools — The Salon's Standard Issue
Every Paul Mitchell-trained stylist learns on the same set of brushes. The numbered series (407, 413, 427, 1016) covers every brush shape a salon will encounter in a day. Pair with the Neuro Dry+ Hairdryer — the lightweight pro dryer Paul Mitchell developed to reduce stylist hand fatigue and consumer drying time.
How to choose your brush
- Paddle Brush (427) — daily detangling on medium-to-long hair. Wide profile = fewer strokes. The brush you reach for after every shower.
- Sculpting Brush (413) — boar-bristle + nylon mix. Best for finishing styles, smoothing without strip-static. The salon's go-to for setting blowouts.
- Vented Styling Brush (1016) — air flows through the barrel during blow-drying = faster dry, less heat damage. Use mid-blowout.
- Styling Brush (407) — narrower profile, all-purpose. Great for fine hair, kids' hair, or detail work.
- Express Ion Round Brush — ceramic ionic technology. Builds salon-grade body and bounce on blow-dry. The barrel reduces frizz on humid days.
The salon blow-dry routine
- Towel-dry to 80% damp — wet hair takes 3× longer to dry and damages more.
- Apply heat protectant + smoothing serum mid-lengths to ends.
- Section into 4 quadrants. Work bottom-up: nape first, top last.
- Section by section with Vented Styling Brush + Neuro Dry+ on medium heat. Direct airflow down the hair shaft (cuticle direction) for shine.
- Round Brush polish pass on the top section for shape.
- Cool-shot finish at the end — closes the cuticle, locks the style, kills frizz.
- Sculpting Brush smooth-through for the final finish.

Frequently asked questions
Which Paul Mitchell brush is best for long or thick hair?
The 427 Paddle Brush: its wide paddle grabs big sections at once, so smoothing and detangling take less time, and its lightweight design helps build body and lift during a blow-dry. If your hair is shorter or fine, the slimmer 413 Sculpting Brush may suit you better, and it works on wet or dry hair.
What size Paul Mitchell Express Ion Round Brush should I buy?
Choose a smaller barrel for shorter hair and tighter bends, and a larger one for smoothness and volume on longer lengths. The Express Ion Round Brush comes in Small £22.95, Medium £24.95, Large £25.95 and X-Large £26.95. The barrel heats up as you dry to help shape the hair, and the ion-infused bristles help cut static and flyaways.
What's the best Paul Mitchell styling tool for curly or textured hair?
The Texture 3-in-1 Interchangeable Curling Iron & Hot Comb is designed with curls, coils and textured hair in mind, with a tapered wand, clip barrel and hot comb on one base; always use it on completely dry hair in small sections. To help curls form and define before diffusing, brush the 407 Styling Brush through wet hair.
