Blow dries are like avocado on toast – it will always in better at a cafe (or in-salon), but you can still get a pretty decent result at home, given you’ve got the right tools. The reason for the long-winded food metaphor is to highlight the fact that hair tools are so innovative these days, you hardly need to leave the house for professional(ish) finish. Below, you’ll find a curation of four at-home hair tools we can’t stop using, from a foolproof volumising hot brush to a $700 straightener that guarantees poker straight locks, no matter your hair type. See, good hair days are only a simple *add to cart* away.

Dyson Corrale, $699. SHOP NOW

Presenting you with the most hyped beauty launch of 2020! The Corrale is Dyson’s take on the humble hair straightener, but like everything Dyson do, it comes with a stack of features and benefits. The main one is the “corraling” action of the flexible plates, working to hold the hair within the straightener so that heat is distributed evenly and effectively. It’s eye-wateringly expensive, but if you have thick, coarse hair or find you’re suffering heat-related damage, it’s worth considering.
