Top 3 essential tools for good styling

Yulia Slabkovskaya , hairdresser, owner of the SJ&TEAM beauty salon

What to do if it’s not possible to take a whole suitcase of tools and supplies with you, but you need to do high-quality styling? I recommend taking with you only three tools that will truly be indispensable:

• hair dryer;
• styler - round, square, rectangular or corrugated, depending on the situation;
• brush;

In details

In order to do a good styling, we definitely need a hairdryer. But you can’t do without another universal assistant - a round brush that can both straighten and curl your hair . You can make a large or smaller curl, depending on the diameter of the brush itself.

If we are talking about means

They can also be classified as irreplaceable, especially if you are winding on stylers. Products that fix your hairstyle depending on your hair structure will suit you. There is a wide choice: a product based on gel, water or alcohol. These can be sprays, lipsticks, gels and so on.

At the final stage of styling, the following products are needed: aerosol or non-aerosol hairspray (the latter, by the way, is more environmentally friendly). But hair waxes and gommages are especially indispensable for short styling of men's and women's haircuts.

For shiny hair, advise the client to use hair serums that contain natural oils. Or serums with silicones for long hair, which are applied before brushing to “glue” split ends and add shine.
