Here's a list of brushes and tools you need to get that perfect hair at home.
1. Tinting Bowl
Regardless if you dye your hair or not, a tinting bowl should deffo be in your home kit! From mixing semi perminant fashion colors, to using it to apply deep conditioning treatments, a mixing bowl is a must! These come in a range of colors and are cheap!
Check out Cool Blades for a range of colors!
2. Hair Clips
From drying, to straightening, to coloring. You NEED hair clips!
Proffessional hair clips are cheap and make life alot easier! It's just a matter of finding out which you prefere to use, personally I like the butterfly (blue) clips as I find they hold and don't catch the hair but it's just personal choice!
You can find loads in hundreds of colors, from markets to online shops, why not check out this set of 12 butterfly clips on ebay?
3. Bobby pins etc
Everyone needs bobby pins. From quiffs to updos to getting your fringe to stay out of your eyes!
I'd reccommend this gorgeous 'Session Kit'. It's designed with hairdressers who do session work in mind, so not only do you have your plain bobby pins but you get 3 colors and a few more pins you need when doing hair up! Theres enough here for you not to need to buy any more for months and I know how easily they seem to dissappear!

9. Round Brushes
The ones pictured are by Protip but regardless of brand anyone who blowdries their hair needs a set of round brushes!

Thanks to their shape they help you get some tension on the hair and help mold the hair into the shape you want! These brushes really are a hair lovers essential item!

10. Wide Tooth Comb
Yes, it's that brush we all know we should use yet don't!
Using a wide tooth comb really should be apart of your hair routine. It allows you to get the knots out of wet hair without stretching and breaking hair! Just remember to start at the bottom of a knot and work upwards!
This is another one for Ebay
11. Tint Brush
The partner of the tint bowl! Allows you to easily apply hair color and treatments with complete control! Avaliable in a massive range of colors and extremely cheaply!
Boots offer some good quality ones
12. Hair Scissors
Yes, they are different to normal 'kitchen scissors' and truely worth the money if you cut your own fringe or hair!
Hairdressing shears give you a much cleaner cut, whereas kitchen scissors leave the hair blunt and more prone to split ends!
Prices vary depending on make to make it is very much a personal choice but have a look on Amazon for inspiration and price ranges!
13. PRODUCTS
Maybe more important than the brushes themselves!
Using the correct products allows you to get the results YOU want!
Mousse before a blowdry ensures your hair will stay in that style longer! Hairspray after you've styled will ensure your hair stays put! Dry shampoo is the god send that lets you go that one day longer if you just haven't got the time to wash your hair!
Make sure you select products that suit your hair type. For example using strong hold hairspray when you just want to keep the fly aways under control can end up with your hair looking flat and solid!
READ the tins and bottles BEFORE you buy!
Hope this helped some of you with your hair needs! Let me know if you need any more information on anything, I'm always happy to help!
Until next time when I show you the perfect straight blow dry step by step!
