It won’t come as a surprise to hear that many women feel empowered by having good hair. However, as many as a third of women say they avoid being in photographs if they are having a “bad hair day.” How we choose to style our hair can have a big impact on our confidence, self-esteem, and general happiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, there are many different hair styling tools that help to give shape, volume, and life to our hair. If you are interested in learning about the most popular hair appliances, then this blog post is for you. Here, we will highlight 7 of the best hair styling tools that you can use, from flat irons and blow driers to curling wands and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Flat Iron<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also known as a straightening iron, a flat iron is designed to straighten and smooth hair. It features flat ceramic or metal heated plates and is one of the most essential items that a style-conscious woman should own. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A flat iron helps to not only straighten hair but also naturally moisturize and condition it. It helps to remove frizz and curls, and controls unwanted volume. It’s safe and easy to use and will give you long-lasting results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Blow Dryer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Put simply, a blow dryer is a handheld device that blows air and is used both during and styling hair. Using a blow dryer to style your hair is easy and allows for a wide range of different styles to be created. Blow-drying hair helps to pre-mold it into your preferred style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We recommend that you blow-dry your hair while it is still damp and direct the dryer’s airflow to match the direction of your hair growth. Going outside in winter with wet hair is not recommended, given that this can make you feel cold and uncomfortable<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Curling Wand<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A curling wand might not be able to cast any spells, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t magic in its own way. First of all, what is the difference between a curling wand and a curling iron?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, a curling iron has a clamp that holds hair flat against it, which creates curls that are precise and polished. The extended close exposure of the hair to the hot iron can increase the risk of damage to the hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, a curling iron lacks this clamp and the hair is instead manually twisted and wrapped around a hot barrel. A curling wand is perfect for messy, undone waves (think beach vibe waves). Another plus is that a curling wand is less likely to damage hair while styling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Diffuser<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A hair diffuser is a styling tool that attaches to the end of a hair dryer’s nozzle (it looks a little like a hand or a cup). Thanks to its unique design, it is able to dry the hair at the same time as maintaining curls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember to always use a diffuser with low heat and low-speed setting, otherwise, the hair may become tangled. It is a slower process, but it will help to prevent frizzy hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Hot Air Brush<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another very useful hair styling tool is the hot air brush. It works to reduce styling time by allowing you to dry, volumize, smooth, and straighten your hair in just one step. Effectively, this tool combines a hairbrush with either (or both) a blow dryer or a flat iron.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All you need to do is choose your preferred setting and slowly brush it through either damp or dry hair (avoid using it on wet hair as it lacks the drying power of a regular blow dryer).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A hot air brush helps to save valuable time, is gentle on hair, user-friendly, and super compact which is perfect if you are traveling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Straightening Brush<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A straightening brush used heated bristles that work to straighten hair strands. The brush’s bristles are typically made of either nylon or silicone materials. It’s an excellent multi-purpose tool that is compact and easy to bring with you when traveling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They typically aren’t as effective at flattening hair as a flat iron, but it is perfect for smoothing hair of curls and kinks, leaving hair that is straight and maintains its volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Round Brush<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to regular brushes, there are many different options you can choose from. One that we love is the round brush. It’s a great choice for styling loose waves and blow drying hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the name suggests, a round brush is fully circular. This makes it blow the hair under, which allows for waves or curls (depending on the size of the brush itself).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other hairbrushes you can choose from include hair detangled hairbrush, wet hairbrush, shower hairbrush, cushion hairbrush, thermal brush, curved hairbrush, paddle hairbrush, mixed bristle hairbrush, anti-static hairbrush, vented hairbrush, and smoothing hairbrush.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
