Good TOOLS = Good HAIR

My favorite hair tools for styling and beyond! Bush styling with a Denman brush has been a complete SUCCESS for my hair in 2024! Sleeping in a silk bonnet is a complete game changer for helping stretch your wash day into days 2 and 3 and BEYOND!

I love that this bonnet has a stretchy adjuster that can tighten the bonnet for a more snug or secured fit! It also comes with a satin scrunchie in a matching color/print, which I think is a nice touch! VERY high quality!

Silk or satin scrunchies are great investment in your curls for those times when you want your hair up or out of your face. These will keep your curl pattern in tact and prevent damage and breakage unlike hair ties or rubber bands.

Root clips are GREAT for adding volume in the areas where you need it or wherever your curls might be weighed down. I put mine in after diffusing my hair to cool down with the clips in.

These are a smaller thinner version of a satin scrunchie. I use these to sleep in because they aren't quite as tight as the full size scrunchies. These are also great for those like myself with thinner hair.

A wide tooth comb for the shower is a MUST! It helps detangle while working conditioners or masks into the hair, as well as combing through and distributing styling products through the hair as well.
