Have you struggled with the painstaking annoyance of heat damage? Waking up every morning to those pesky flyaway strands and frizziness? Well, we have too, and we completely understand the struggle.

Heat damage is one of the hardest forms of damage to deal with that can sometimes leave us feeling a bit hopeless when it comes to styling our hair. And even if we’re not currently at odds with damage, finding styling tools that work for natural hair is of the utmost importance for protecting our tresses and ensuring longer-lasting wash and goes.

Heat damage can be caused by a number of reasons such as applying an excessive amount of heat to your hair from styling tools such as hair dryers, flat irons, and hot combs to name a few.

“Using hot tools like blow dryers, flat irons, and curling irons to style your hair is a great way to achieve the look you want, but it also increases your risk of heat-damaged hair. Some tools don’t allow for temperature control, so you may not know the exact level of heat being applied to your hair,” Dyson explains.

We seriously know how troubling heat damage is and how terribly inconvenient it can be on the path to healthy tresses. So in order to help you and frankly ourselves out, we’ve outlined a few tools we’re currently loving to help ensure healthy and stronger strands when you do decide to opt-in for a bit of heat.
