16. A hairbrush comprising: a handle; a round brush head connected to the handle having first and second axially spaced apart end portions interconnected by a central portion along an elongated axis: bristles extending from an outer surface of the brush head and the bristles having terminal ends spaced radially outward from the outer surface; and vanes extending radially outward from the first end portion of the brush head configured to direct air flow from an associated hair dryer impinging on the hairbrush in an axial direction along the central portion toward the second end portion of the brush head; wherein the bristles extend from the central portion only, and the bristles are arranged in circumferentially spaced rows extending axially from the first end portion to the second end portion of the brush head; wherein alternating rows of the bristles have staggered axial dimensions along the central portion of the brush head; and, further comprising vanes extending radially outward from the second end portion for directing air flow from the associated hair dryer impinging on the hairbrush in an axial direction along the central portion toward the first end portion of the brush head, the vanes located on the first end portion terminate adjacent an end of a first set of bristle rows, and the vanes located on the second end portion terminate adjacent an end of a second set of bristle rows, wherein the first set of bristle rows alternate with the second set of bristle rows about a circumference of the central portion of the brush head.
