From soft and sleek to big and bouncy, see which tools and products will help your locks look their best this Spring. Here are 7 of our favourite hair heroes to keep you looking deadly all year round!
1/ Hairdryer
A good hairdryer is essential for any bride’s hair prep. LanaiBlo, €115, is a high power 2400 watt hairdryer that dries hair in record time whilst sealing in moisture to counteract frizz. Using ionic technology, hair is left smooth and shiny.
2/ Curler
Infamous the world over, the Dyson Airwrap is certainly an investment at the steep cost of €500 but if you’re someone who loves to get a blowdry, this could actually save you money in the long run with the easy use wand producing salon-worthy curls in minutes.
3/ Straightener
All brides should try to protect their hair in the run-up to their wedding, which means avoiding hot tools where possible. But if you struggle to go au naturale, the L’Oreal Steampod, €299, is 78% less damaging than other straighteners. Through the use of steam and heat, hair retains its style in humid conditions which means no more frizz!
4/ Oil
Smoothing, reducing frizz, taming flyaways whilst detangling and strengthening hair, Bumble & Bumble Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil, €45, has received rave reviews from top hairdressers all over the world. For use on all hair types, this bestselling oil also helps protect colour from fading for up to 16 washes.
5/ Shampoo & Conditioner
Using hyaluronic acid and Intra-Cyclane, the Kérastase Densifique range, €80, plumps, hydrates and strengthens hair for thicker, fuller locks. Recommended by my own hairdresser before my wedding, this combo will banish limp locks, giving body and life to your hair for your wedding day. Bigger is better after all!
6/ Texturizing Spray
The perfect shortcut to bigger, more voluminous hair, Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray, €23, lifts at the roots to give a more glamorous, full-bodied style. Absorbing oils, refreshes hair, leaving it fresh and clean. This multi-tasking spray also protects hair from UV damage whilst providing colour-protecting properties.
7/ On The Go
The perfect tool to have on hand when you’re on the go, GHD has recently released Unplugged, €349. A lightweight portable straightener that provides 20 minutes of continuous styling at 185 degrees, this tool helps tame unruly hair while you’re out and about, be that your wedding, hen party or honeymoon. Charged using a USB cable, you can top up at home or even a handy portable charger in your handbag.
