Hot tools . . .
I’ve rounded up the four types of hot tools every girl should have in their collection: a blow dryer, hot rollers, a curling wand and a straightening iron.
Blow Dryer
The one hot tool every girl should own is a blow dryer–it’s the easiest to use and suits every hair type. This ceramic ionic dryer by Sephora features the professional perks without the high price point. It’s lightweight, has a 9′ long cord and three heat settings. Looking for something different? I’ve rounded up a few highly-rated blow dryers, ranging in price to accommodate any budget.
Hot Rollers
If volume is your thing, it’s time to invest in a set of hot rollers. Depending on the length of your hair, you’ll want between 6-12 curlers. This ‘Voluminous’ eight roller set by T3 is worth the investment. The quality combination of large and extra large rollers creates a look that feels old Hollywood. These self-grip rollers give you a similar style when used on damp hair and blown dry. Below are a few more volume-worthy options to choose from.
Curling Wand
To get those trendy mermaid curls, you’ll need a 1″-2″ curling wand. This 1″ rod by Sultra is on the pricier side, but the long lasting curls are worth it. Looking for less of an investment? Give this style by Sephora a try. At just $40, it’s the best way to test the trend. I’ve also rounded up a few additional tools that are easy to use and come highly recommended.
Straightening Iron
Finish off your hot tools collection with a ceramic straightening iron. The gdh Classic Styler is at the top of the class. It’s rounded 1″ plates are ideal for all hair lengths and types. With a simple switch of the wrist, this barrel also creates the perfect beach waves. Want to shop around? I found a couple of additional straighteners that boast rave reviews.
What hot tools are in your arsenal? Are there any brands you swear by?
