In case you missed it, I have fine hair. And one of the most depressing things about having fine hair is the so-scrawny-it's-practically-invisible tail I'm left with when I wear a braid. The end of my braid is so pathetic, it's nearly impossible to tie it with anything other than a bit of string or a braces elastic -- neither of which leaves much room for styling options.

The Invisibobble Nano, $6.95, was created especially for skinny braids, fine hair and delicate hairstyles. This tiny spiral hair holder has tons of grip and can be used in countless ways. Plus, it makes a scrawny braid tail look so much happier -- and never creased.

Bath and Body Works Waikiki Beach Coconut Shower Gel, $12.50, mentally takes me to Hawaii -- and that's reason enough to love it. It also happens to contain aloe, shea butter and vitamin E, and the fragrance is a blend of everyone's favorite beachy scent (coconut, of course) with pretty passionflower and warm sandalwood. I see a trip to Hawaii in my future -- every morning while this body wash lasts.
