If you hit snooze too many times in the morning and run out of time to make your hair appear even remotely presentable, you need to be introduced to the world of hair straightening brushes.

Unlike plain Jane hair straighteners, these brushes heat up and quickly glide through your hair while simultaneously brushing and straightening it.

Here are the very best ones:

7. Luma Hair Straightening 3D Ceramic Brush ($79.99 Buy Now on Amazon)

This top-rated hair straightening brush has been featured in InStyle and Allure and is beloved by beauty editors. The LUMA is designed to work on all hair types, from fine to thick, from straight and wavy to curly. Better yet, the brush makes it ten times faster to style your hair straight.

6. InStyler Straight Up Ceramic Hair Straightening Brush ($49.98 Buy Now on Amazon)

This hair straightening brush has quite a bit of street cred: it comes from an established brand and has plenty of positive Amazon reviews to back it up. The tip of each bristle is cool to the touch, so you won't burn your hands when styling. There are also seven different heat settings, perfect for adjusting to your hair texture and type.

5.TS2 Super Smoother Electric Hair Straightening Brush ($39.99 Buy Now on Amazon)

If you're looking for smoother and not necessarily straighter strands, the TS2 is your best bet. The brush eliminates frizz and flyaways like a pro, while smoothing your hair for silky and shiny locks. Better yet, the brush shuts off after one hour of use, so you won't have any "wait, did I turn my heat tool off?" scares.

4. Conair Diamond-Infused Ceramic Smoothing Hot Brush ($39.99 Buy Now on Amazon)

When it comes to hair tools, it's hard to beat Conair. The best part about this brush from the professional-grade hair brand are the flexible bristles, which won't tangle your hair or pull any out from your head. Like the TS2, this is best for smoothing (and not pin-straightening) your locks.

3. Jose Eber Digital Straightening Brush ($120 Buy now on Amazon)

If you have really thick, unruly or curly hair, the Jose Eber brush will work wonders. It's made to straighten every hair type regardless of texture or thickness, and heats up to 450 degrees to do so. The ceramic bristles add shine, while the silicone bristle tips won't burn your scalp.

2. Dafni The Original Hair Straightening Brush ($199.99 Buy Now on Amazon)

The Dafni has science to back it up as one of the top hair straightening brushes on the market. After three years of research and development, along with a viral Facebook video, the Dafni is seen as one of the best straighteners on the market and in the world. It stays at 365 degrees, which is less damaging than the 450 degree high of other straightening brushes.

1. AsaVea Portable Electric Hair Straightening Brush($35.99 Buy Now on Amazon)

This brush isn't just our personal favorite -- it's also the #1 rated straightening hair brush on Amazon! This thing might be small, but don't let that fool you: the portable brush has 23 ceramic heating plates, which makes it powerful enough to evenly distribute heat through your locks.
