What to look for in personal care appliances

  • Heat settings: Multiple heat levels protect fine or damaged hair while giving you control for different styles.
  • Cord length and weight: A heavy tool becomes uncomfortable fast. Look for lightweight designs and swivel cords.
  • Wet/dry versatility: IPX waterproof ratings matter for any device used near a sink or in the shower.
  • Charging options: USB-C or inductive charging is more convenient than proprietary chargers for travel.
  • Replacement parts availability: Brush heads, foil packs, and attachments should be easy to find and reasonably priced.
