Achieving a fresh ‘out-of-the-salon’ look for those of us who can only just manage to hold a brush and a hairdryer at the same time is no easy feat. However, as the saying goes ‘a man is only as good as his tools and so arming yourself with the right equipment is the first step towards achieving hairstyling success.
It’s an unspoken truth that whatever hair type you have whether that be curly, straight, or somewhere in between, it’s likely that you’ve spent countless hours over the years styling your hair the complete opposite way. Your desired hairstyle can change depending on your mood or the occasion; sometimes you want poker-straight hair, whilst on other occasions, beachy waves add the right amount of perfection to your look. Then there are times when you feel like sporting luscious bouncy curls. For each of these hairstyles, you need different styling tools.
With a range of new technologies to choose from and the fact that our hair is so individual, it can be tricky to know which haircare device is right for you. So, if you are a little confused about hair styling tools, we’re here to help! We’ve rounded up our top picks of the best hair styling tools to help you achieve a professional-looking finish at home.
Transforming the way you style your hair, these steam-powered straighteners style your hair 2x faster, creating up to 2x smoother results. Simply fill up the water tank with filtered water.
