# Best multi-stylers for long hair

Publisher: Blow and Barrel. Picks are based on what the Amazon listings state, not on hands-on testing. Method: https://blowandbarrel.co.uk/how-we-pick

Long hair asks a lot of a multi-styler. Each section takes longer to dry, a short barrel runs out of room before the ends are wrapped, and a weak motor leaves curls that drop by lunchtime. The tools that help are long or wide barrels, a paddle or loop brush for smoothing large sections, and a strong dryer head for the first rough-dry. This guide compares multi-stylers on the long-hair tools each maker names, curl barrels, smoothing heads and wattage. Dyson's 40 mm barrels are the only ones described for longer lengths, so we say where other makers do not mention length. We have not guessed barrel lengths that the listings leave out.
