An improved hair brush having a prism shaped brush head, such as a cylindrical brush head, with spaced apart brush tips or tufts of bristles distributed around a portion of the 360° of the outer surface. The spaced apart brush tips or bristles may be present in only ⅓ (i.e. 120°) to ½ (i.e. 180°) of the entire outer surface, or it may cover more or less than this range to improve the smoothing or curling of a user's hair. Each tuft of bristles may have different lengths and randomly be directed at different directions.

         2 . The hair brush of  claim 1  wherein said covered portion is about ⅓ to about ½ of said surface. 
     
     
         3 . The hair brush of  claim 1  wherein each of said brush elements is a brush tip extending from said covered portion of said surface. 
     
     
         4 . The hair brush of  claim 1  wherein each of said brush elements is a tuft of bristles extending from said covered portion of said surface. 
     
     
         5 . The hair brush of  claim 4  wherein each tuft of bristles comprises bristles of at least two different lengths with their distal ends pointing in at least two different directions. 
     
     
         6 . The hair brush of  claim 4  wherein each tuft of bristles comprises bristles made of at least two different materials. 
     
     
         7 . The hair brush of  claim 1  wherein each of said brush elements is made of nylon. 
     
     
         8 . The hair brush of  claim 1  wherein said surface is made of ceramic. 
     
     
         9 . The hair brush of  claim 1  further comprising a ceramic layer on said surface. 
     
     
         10 . The hair brush of  claim 1  further comprising a handle extending from one end of said brush head.

         12 . A hair brush comprising:
 a generally cylindrical brush head having a circumferential curved surface, said surface comprises a covered portion and a non-covered portion; and   a plurality of spaced apart brush elements extending from said covered portion only.   
     
     
         13 . The hair brush of  claim 12  wherein said covered portion is about 120 degrees to about 180 degrees of the 360 degrees of said circumferential curved surface. 
     
     
         14 . A method of styling a user's hair with a blow dryer that produces hot air, comprising the steps of:
 providing a hair brush having a brush head with a longitudinal axis and a surface, said surface comprises a covered portion and a non-covered portion and a plurality of spaced apart brush elements on said covered portion only;   gripping the user's hair with said brush elements;   directing the blow dryer's hot air at said surface to heat it and/or the hair up; and   rotating said brush head so that the hair is positioned over and rest against the heated non-covered portion for styling the hair.
