Hair Styling Tools



There are a few things you need when you’re styling your hair. Obviously you need a good hairbrush, but some other tools can make things easier too.

A rat tailed comb is very useful if you like hairstyles that involve separating small sections of hair. This can be useful when making some kinds of braids, for example.

Elastics are very important for holding your hair style in place. I strongly recommend you not use actual rubber bands or any elastic with metal. These tend to tear and otherwise damage your hair and just aren’t much fun to take out of your hair. Instead, make sure to get elastics that do not pull your hair. You’ll find them quite easily.

Alternatively, use a scrunchie. Some people consider these to be very much out of fashion, but I use ones that don’t have all that much fabric, a kind of thin scrunchie. These are very gentle on your hair.

Hairpins are also quite useful for keeping your hair under control. You can get some that come close to blending in with your hair or use them for decoration.

Curling your hair isn’t the kindest thing you can do to it, but there are times when you just really want that look. Heat is just not good for your hair, so while it looks great you are doing damage to your hair. Also don’t blow dry your hair unless it’s an absolute must. Get good quality when you choose a curling iron or hair dryer.

Claws can look nice, but they often have rough edges that are really not gentle to your hair. Feel the edges when choosing claws to find ones that are not too rough.

Metal barrettes can also be hard on your hair. They can tear your hair when you take them out.

Hair sticks, if properly made, can be quite kind to your hair. Watch for rough edges, and also see if the decorations are likely to catch and tear your hair.

Parenthood And Long Hair
If they don’t cut their hair in pregnancy, many women cut their hair shorter after the baby is born. The reason, as always, is that it’s easier to deal with. If you think about it, though, long hair may not require that much extra effort when compared to short hair. You’ll spend less time getting it cut at the salon, which can be nice when you have to fit that in around your children’s schedules. Brushing your hair only takes a little longer for well-maintaned long hair than it does for...

Oiling Your Long Hair
One of the problems with long hair is how hard it is for your hair’s natural oils to get all the way down to the ends. You can help your hair feel great with a good conditioner, but oil can be really helpful. My personal preference is to use jojoba oil. I buy it at my local natural foods store. I like to scent it with a bit of lavender oil too, since I love that scent. It takes very, very little oil to do the job. My hair copes pretty well with being long, so I find I do best by only oiling...

Seaport Village In San Diego
Seaport Village is perhaps my favorite shopping center in San Diego. I don’t go there often, and it doesn’t have the major department stores, but if you enjoy unique and quirky shops, this is the shopping center for you. My personal favorite has always been the Lefty Shop. I’m right handed, and they mostly sell tools for lefties, but they have things anyone can enjoy. I love my “counter clock” I bought there. Look at a regular clock in a mirror, and that’s what my clock looks like. The double...
