I’m a stylist as well and just found your blog! Love Ghd, silkcombs, and olivia garden round brushes. I also have my hot tools irons from beauty school, i think they’re indestructable.

We are kindred stylist souls! I am a stylist in Illinois, and, with the exception of the flat iron, these are the exact tools I use and recommend! (I haven’t had any problems with my Chi!)

Great post! Looking forward to the series 🙂

I love my Babyliss flat iron! It works wonders on my hair. I have been disappointed with Chi as well. Loved seeing your favs!

Love my round brush, wide tooth comb, bobby pins and of course styling tools!! 🙂

I’m forever looking for the perfect hairdryer…my question is about maintenance…what do you do to maintain your dryer to make it last so long? I swear mine end up burning out in a little over a year, and I’m not talking about $20 dryers either…I’ve bought Solano and T3, among others. Solano has been my fav so far, but one day it just decided to stop heating up and would only blow regular air.

Love my Speed Freak hairdryer! I didn’t realize how badly my old, cheap one was wrecking my hair until I started using this baby.

I’ve been looking for a new round brush so this could not have come at a better time!

professional bobby pins!? I had no idea. I wear at least one bobby everyday. I will have to look into this, thanks!

Love it! Looking forward to more of these What Are Your Favorite posts 🙂

I love, love, love my Paul Mtchell 413 Sculpting Brush. I’ll never blow dry my hair with anything else. I too love my Hot Tools curling iron, it’s lasted longer than any other hair appliance. I also love my T3 hair dryer. The Diane bobby pins are the best!

You are always so full of great information! Love the new series!!! Keep them coming. It’s great how all your advice is packed into one place so I can refer back to it easily. You so smart 😉

Thanks for this post today! I have the worst time making cheapy bobby pins stay in my thick, slick hair, and they are more expensive than what you posted! I have auburn hair. Will the bronze bobby pins be my best option? Are they not too “blond”?

I had no idea their were actually professional bobby pins! I spent almost 2 hours watching all of your youtube videos last night! love them! 🙂

Great, helpful post! I definitely need all the help I can get 🙂 Literally feel like making notes 😀

I’ve been trying to figure out where to buy a good quality hairdryer for the longest time! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I notice when I go to the hairdresser the nozzle is skinny than my 30 dollar hairdryer. I’m assuming that’s a big part of why it has such a smooth finish?

The GHD is by far the most amazing hair tool ever! I use it to both straighten and wave my hair.

I’ve been hoping for a post like this : ) Thank you!!

Thanks Kate! I’ve always thought you should have a tab where all your recommendations are listed….because when I’m out shopping it takes awhile to pull up the right post/video. First world problems I guess! Thanks so much! That blow dryer is on my “next thing to buy” list! Thanks again!

Love these! I’m always looking for some good hair tools 🙂

Love this series so far! I bought some Diane bobby pins after your recommendation and they rock! SO much better than the stuff from the Dollar Store!

Great post! Thank you!

I hear about the GHD’s all the time. Are they better than regular flat irons?

Great new series! I am currently using a babyliss titanian flat iron but have also heard about GHD. May be worth a try when mine dies…

I love “favorites” posts. So much fun to hear what other people are loving. I used to have a T3 flat iron & then bought the GHD and NEVER looked back. Holy cow, what a difference!
I’m considering getting a babyliss curling iron. I have the 1″ Hot Tools curling iron but my hair is hard to curl & after curling my whole head, it’s all straight in about 20 minutes, & that’s using it on the highest setting. (and I use mousse, heat spray etc…) Hopefully the babyliss will perform better on my finicky hair.

What about a diffuser? Is there an attachment for the Rusk Speed Freak?

Great series! I love my hot tools curling irons too!

Hi Kate! What is the difference between #3 and #8?

Thanks!

I will certainly be tracking down those bobby pins, thank you! Also I have LOVED GHD’s ever since I first used my sisters 11 years ago, they gave me so much more confidence in myself. I have frizzy/straight/curly/wavy hair and the GHD’s fix it right up. Either to make it straight or curly. (My sisters house recently got burgled and she was most upset about her new GHD’s being taken!)

Hi Kate, wondering what size of round brush do you use on your hair? I’ve never used the Olivia Garden brand so would love some impute from you before I order one. Thanks!!

Diane Bobby pins $8.63 on Amazon.com (for a 12 pack – cards) and £46.99 for the same pack on Amazon.co.uk – pretty unbelievable!

You listed 2 curling iron brands…if I was to invest in one for bigger curls, which would you recommend?

I am a Hot Tools girl! LOVE THEM!!!!

I have used Hot Tools flat irons for years (10+) and just recently befriended a 1 1/2′ curling iron….which I am learning to love. I really value the temperature dial on their tools. My hair tends to need a HOT iron.

Confused about the Denman brush comment, you say you use it to blow dry your hair, and that it’s ALSO great for blow drying hair….repetitive? Meant to say something else?

OH! And thanks for the tip on the blow dryer, have been looking for a good one.

And haven’t heard of GHD flat irons….I use a HAI flat iron. Have you tried one, and if so, what are your thoughts?

Hi Kate, which alligator clips do you use for keeping sections of your hair separate while styling? I was hoping to see them with the bobby pins and clear elastics. Thanks!!

I’ve been needing a new brush for ages but had no idea which one to buy! Great post!

Just started following your blog! 🙂 I’ll have to look into the GHD flat iron, my CHI just broke the other day!

I am crazy about the tiny little claw clips when I put my hair up!

This is such a helpful post! I’ll be in the market for a new flat iron soon, so now I know which one to buy. Yay!

I cannot live w/o those twist in hair pin things that you kind of screw into your hair. They hold my thick, longish hair in a bun that would normally take 10 bobbie pins.

Was there supposed to be a link for a vented hair brush?

Love this idea for a series! And I’ve been on the lookout for a new blow dryers, so I’ll have to look in to this one.

I just wanted to thank you for the bobby pin recommendation. After a lifetime of buying and throwing out drug store bobby pins–because they did nothing but fall out of my hair, no matter which side of them I put up or down–I bought a container of the Diane bobby pins…and they work. They actually work. For the first time in my life, I’ve successfully used bobby pins in my hair for a week straight, with no problems with them falling out or needing adjusting at all times throughout the day. I even wore them in a freaking *wind storm* without any issues! I can stop wearing my hair in pony tails! Thank you!!!

Thanks for visiting my diary and commenting during a constructive manner, following on already! nice diary your have-I notably enjoyed your post on top of as I simply attended a Smash box event wherever the conjure artists all used brushes to use foundation giving a pretty mat and even finish! cricket brush
