Attention to the style challenged!
Hands up if your curls end up looking like a limp puppy dog’s tail, as opposed to the glamorous waves of a Hollywood star. Keep them up if you forgo the latest trends for a ponytail every morning because it’s just too easy.
Well, there is hope.
We’ve rounded up the tools that make styling your hair a breeze. From defined waves, to the perfect topknot and even an on-trend fishtail braid, you’ll never have a boring hair day again. And the greatest part? They all require minimal skill and effort.
#1: For waves…
Defined waves are not as easy to achieve as YouTube hair tutorials would have you think. That is, of course, until you try the VS Sassoon Deep Retro Glam. The triple barrel styler gives you waves in a matter of seconds. It requires no twisting and no curling. Simply place your hair between the two tongs, like you would a straightener, and release for glamorous waves.It will make you wonder why you ever spent hours trying to use your straightener as a curler.
#2: For the perfect topknot…
Topknots can often go oh-so-very wrong. To avoid looking like you’ve scooped your hair off your face for an early morning gym class, why not try a hair donut? It helps create a perfectly shaped bun. We recommend the Lady Jayne Bun Styl’r Kit. It contains a donut, a hair elastic, five bobby pins and a lookbook for inspiration.
#3: For a fishtail braid…
Fishtail braids are everywhere at the moment – throughout blogs, magazines and on celebrities. To stay on-trend, and to add a little something extra to a low pony, give one a go. The Scunci Criss CrosserToolhelps create a fishtail braid with ease. Even those who can’t plait will come out with a neat braid. Divide your hair into two equal sections, and thread through the tool. Once finished, we recommend messing it up a little for a more relaxed look.
#4 For everything…
A hair-dryer, straightener and brush in one, I hear you ask? No, you haven’t wandered off into an extravagant fantasy. The Philips ProCare AirStyleris just that. With five attachments, including a nozzle, retractable bristle brush, paddle straightening brush, thermobrush and volumizer, the hot hair styler creates volume, body, waves and texture. It’s got everything you need to create the style you want.
Have you ever used any of these tools? What’s your go-to style for days when you just can’t be bothered?
