The invention relates to a hair styling appliance (1) comprising a shaft (12) having a comb-like styling tool (3), which extends only over part of the circumference of the shaft (12) and has teeth (5), which are each spaced apart from each other by a hair receptacle (10), are arranged in a tow in the longitudinal direction of the shaft (12), project from the shaft (12) and each form or have a styling part (7, 7.1), which is produced from a material that conducts heat well. In the part or the circumference of the shaft, which circumference is not occupied by the styling tool (3), the shaft (12) heats at least one hair collecting device (13), which follows the longitudinal direction of the row of teeth and is arranged opposite the latter such that, after hair has been caught by the hair collection device (13) and the shaft (12) has been rotated about the longitudinal axis thereof, the hair can be introduced into hair styling gaps situated between the pairs of styling parts (7, 7.1).
