Best travel hairbrushes for every hair type: Picks for tangle-free travel
May 6, 2025
They say you should never ask the contents of a lady’s handbag, but in 2025, I think we can let a few truths slip.
In mine, you will always find at least two types of lip balm - one for fuss-free nourishing, the other with a light tint. A small tube of hand cream (L’Occitane does travel-friendly ones best). Eye drops to counter the effects of staring at a screen all day, and a pot of Merit’s Flush Balm to brighten my complexion after the commute has zapped it.
Lately, I’ve added a travel hairbrush to the mix of must-haves. Because no matter what the weather is up to, my medium-thick hair always seems to find a way of tangling by lunchtime.
The gentlest of breezes is enough to send the strands into utter disarray, and finger combing can only get you so far. I could tie my hair back, but since it’s a kind of safety blanket, I never feel comfortable unless I’m wearing it loose around my face.
Thankfully, I don’t need to force a full-size hairbrush into an over-burdened bag. There are plenty of compact designs made for travel that will work just as well.
They’re not just for city adventures either: these tiny hair tamers are ideal for short trips where everything must fit into an underseat bag. They’re also great for festivals, slotting into an at-capacity backpack without taking up too much room. The best come with a small mirror so you can grin or grimace at your appearance, depending on the state of your crowning glory.
