Here are some hair tools to invest in for a good hair day everyday, according to your hair type and needs.
Even with the perfect outfit and on-point makeup, a bad hair day can make or break a look. It’s no wonder why the media (including the platform you’re on right now) and professionals spend so much on hairstyling for photoshoots.
That said, it wouldn’t be practical to make a trip to the salon every other day or call in your regular hairdresser to sort out your tresses before heading out. No, we believe that a good hair day starts at home.
Here are some hair tools to invest in for a good hair day everyday, according to your hair type and needs.
For a fast, smooth blow-dry: Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer
This hair dryer doesn’t look like a hair dryer for calculated reasons. It was designed with the motor in the handle to provide better balance as you dry your hair. With three speed settings and four heat settings, it redefines precision and control in a hairdryer. What’s more, it is made to keep temperature under control by readjusting to air temperature every 20 seconds. Available at Sephora stores and online.
For airy, roll-out-of-bed locks: GHD Glide
GHD’s first hot brush smoothens your hair and restores its balance at the same time, just by gliding through your mane like a regular brush. With an ioniser that heats the brush to an optimum 185-degree styling temperature, it guarantees sleek, healthy-looking hair that looks like you came out of the salon…when you’ve actually just gotten out of bed. Available for a limited time only at Sephora stores and the finest salons.
For detangling hair: Tangle Teezer Original
If you’re prone to tangled, brittle hair, this hairbrush will be your lifesaver. Used by professional hairdressers to eliminate tangles and knots before working on your hair at the salon, it’s the tried and trusted tool for everyday combing. It works on both dry and damp hair – so anytime your hair is acting up, it’ll do the trick minus the breakage, splitting and frustration. Available at Sephora stores and online.
For a healthy scalp and shiny tresses: Christophe Robin Boar Bristle Hairbrush
Boar bristles are the way to go for those with a sensitive scalp and this Christophe Robin brush is made with 100 percent of it to prevent breakage as you brush through your tresses. Plus, it is ideal for a gentle scalp massage to improve blood circulation, oxygenate the scalp and eliminate impurities. Regular brushing is said to result in naturally healthier, shinier hair. Available at Sephora stores and online.

For volumising blowouts: Drybar Full Pint Medium Round Brush
Those who struggle with fine, flat hair can do wonders with a round brush and some volumising hair spray or mousse. Simply apply the volumising product and brush your hair from the roots as you blowdry for a lifted effect. This brush even comes with a ceramic barrel for a faster blowout and better volume while reducing frizz and flyaways. And it’s lightweight enough to not leave your biceps aching after. Available at selected online stores.
For silky, straight hair: GHD Platinum + Professional Performance Styler
This award-winning flat iron is loved by many for getting the job done while being gentle on the hair. How? Not only does it constantly maintain an optimum 185-degree styling temperature, it also features an ultra-zone predictive technology to respond to your hair needs more effectively. It heats up in only 20 seconds too, so you don’t have to spend too much time taming your mane. Available at Sephora stores and selected fine hair salons.
For soft, bouncy curls and beyond: Dyson Airwrap Hair Styler
Headlining the hair tool releases of 2018 is the Dyson Airwrap styler, which combines powerful digital motor with aerodynamics to style hair without extreme heat. It uses the Coanda effect to curl, wave and smooth damp hair, compared to the traditional heating method which can cause hair damage over time. The complete set also comes with a firm smoothing brush, soft smoothing brush and round volumising brush to style different textures and finishes besides curls – because a girl can do with options. Available at Sephora stores and online.
