Shop like the pros do.
We're not going to name names, but you've likely seen a similar—though much more expensive product—out there.

Stylist Adam Bogucki, owner of Lumination Salon in Chicago, uses this hot tool on his clients and often recommends it, too. Not only is it easy on the wallet, it also creates on-trend "lived-in" curls and texture, and is less damaging than a traditional curling iron, he tells us.

At the rate at which we go through hair ties, there's no way we'd spend big bucks on them. Turns out, we're not alone. Gurgov uses this "staple" for updos, ponytails and braids. Because there's no metal connector, they won't cause a bend or crease in the hair, he points out.

Bogucki is a fan of this bargain—and very durable—brush: "It's perfect for smoothing and styling, and works on all lengths and hair types. The smooth, round-edged pins are gentle on the scalp, and the natural rubber pad is anti-static and helps with grip and control," he points out.
