Before you go out the door and take on this growing heat, be prepared with 5 essential hair tools for natural hair every curly girl should have always in her handbag. These hair tools will ensure that you’re never caught out there looking disheveled because of the humidity, wind and or rain.
Never ever step out without these babies. I cannot tell you how many countless ways they have saved my hair. From securing flyways to changing a look from day to night. These little magic wands (what I like to call them) are indeed a must have. Buy them in various sizes so you can secure your hair in different ways for different styles. Bigger bobby pins are better for thicker hair.
Right along with those trusty bobby pins, a curly girl can never go anywhere without some goody ouchless bands! Have you ever tried to do a quick high bun and all of sudden the elastic breaks? I have, need I say more? Goody’s brand is particularly good because they don’t snag our tender curls – hence the name “ouches”.
Don’t attempt to go without this life saver. This brush easily can be used to smooth back hair into neat and chic puffs, buns and pony tails. The bristles won’t damage our sensitive strands so no worries there! If you don’t already own one, you can grab one from your local drug store. These also help tidy up that pesky little “kitchen” area in the back.
If you’re a naturalista that is all about having your edges laid then make sure you have a good edge control gel nearby. This can make sure that those edges and the nape of your neck are right where you want them to be. Not a bad idea to keep a silk scarf hand too to set the gel down.
Last but not least (my personal favorite) a hair pick can instantly give your hair volume to turn your look from day to night with ease! Work at mainly fluffing the roots so you don’t disturb the curl at your tips. This keeps your style looking fresher.
