The Chi Air Spin N Curl is the ultimate styler for lazy people and it’s $60 off at Walmart

Curling your hair is a serious undertaking. With the strength and endurance you need to hold your your arms above your head nonstop for an hour, it should be a damn Olympic event.

Chi, a brand known for premium hair devices that last forever, decided that getting ready should be fun — not a workout. The Chi Air Spin N Curl is a one-handed curling iron that does the work for you, and it’s $60 off at Walmart.

(Even at nearly 50% off, spending $80 on a curling iron might seem ridiculous — until you realize it’s the last curling iron you’ll need to buy for a while. My Chi straightener is eight years old and is still kicking.) Read more…

Best hair dryers for every budget, according to the people who use them

sudshr47 March 7, 2019

How you dry your hair can make or break your style for the day. Letting it air dry means you’re dealing with your natural hair and, well, sometimes that is not the easiest monster to tame. Using a blow dryer may require extra effort, but it speeds up the drying process and can help deliver a more polished look.

When looking for the perfect tool to dry your hair, your top priority should be your hair’s health. A blow dryer that overheats and fries your hair is not worth it. And honestly, that’s what hair dryers are: An investment. When you buy one, you’re expecting to use it daily (or at least a few times a week, depending on your routine), so you want it to last.

13 of the best curling irons and hair wands, according to online reviews

Looking for the right curling iron can be overwhelming — there are literally hundreds you could choose from. You have to consider your hair type, the kind of curl you want, ease of use, price, material, and more just to find a product to style your hair.

First let’s talk size — because size actually does matter when it comes to styling your hair. Curling irons range to create tiny spirals or big, loose curlsLiana Le, a celebrity stylist at Marie Robinson Salon in New York, New York, told us via email that she prefers one-inch tools to achieve a beachy, undone look, and a 1.25-inch size for a softer, pulled out wave look. For tighter curls you should opt for a three-quarter-inch iron or smaller. If you’re unsure of what size you want, a one-inch curling iron is a safe bet for most hair types and lengths. Read more…

7 of the best light masks for acne, according to reviews

According to the American Academy of Dermatology, adult acne is on the rise, affecting up to 15 percent of women. (As if adulting wasn’t already stressful enough!) 

Though topical creams may get the job done for some, there’s a new kind of acne treatment that’s becoming increasingly popular: acne light therapy. Basically, this high-tech solution aims to kill the bacteria that causes acne and prolongs the vicious breakout cycle. It also targets age spots, acne scars, discoloration, and other blemishes. Light treatments work by shining different types of LED light (either red or blue light) onto your skin at a close distance. The red light treatment takes aim at inflammation while the blue light treatment targets the acne-causing bacteria at the source. Read more…

Welcome to Blue Monday — a party you definitely don’t want to attend. 

If you aren’t familar with this date, and why it’s blue, it’s probably a good thing, because Blue Monday is the name given to the date in January claimed to be the most depressing day of the year. That day is today! 

The third Monday of January has been awarded this gloomy title due to a combination of post-Christmas blues, cold dark nights, and the arrival of some pretty unpleasant credit card bills. It’s not all doom and gloom though, because Blue Monday can be used as a catalyst to make some positive changes to turn your frown upside down. Read more…

Stop what you’re doing, because it’s officially a “Deal That Never Happens” Day: The Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer is $359 at Walmart. 

This is the first time we’ve ever seen it on sale and this is the only place it’s on sale — peep it at  $399 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Dyson’s official site. That’s a full $40 more than the deal at Walmart.

You may be thinking, “$40 off of $400 isn’t that great,” and you’re kind of right — but when there’s a discount on an item that’s this in demand, you don’t pass it up. It’s kind of like finding a deal on AirPods.

You also may be thinking, “A $400 hair dryer better be impressive.” Oh, don’t worry. It is. Read more…

Dyson Airwrap review: Fancy curls for an even fancier price

Dyson Airwrap
$499.99 (starting)
The Good

Pretty • uniform curls • Protects your hair • Fast and easy to use • The straightening brush was a revelation

The Bad

Multiple times more expensive than everything else on the market • Price • The whole kit is huge • Did we mention the price?

The Bottom Line

If you frequently straighten, curl, or style your hair, the Dyson Airwrap’s quickness, versatility, and heat protection could be worth the obscene price. But if you’re only an occasional styler, save that hard-earned cash.
