I don’t know about you, but summer hair is so easy! All summer long, I would just roll out of the house with my hair tousled in loose waves, spritz some frizz-fighting serum, and go. Not so in the fall. I find that cooler temps call for cooler hair. Or at least more…put together. So this fall, I am starting with these 3 must-have products.

1) milk_shake Leave-in Conditioner

Love, love, love this leave-in conditioner! Smells like heaven (if your idea of heaven is a yummy milkshake that is), makes my hair soft, and frizz-free. Perfect for keeping your strands shiny and sleek this fall. Buy it at Donato Salons.

2) Goody Simple Styles Spin Pins

I cannot recommend these spin pins enough. These two tiny pins do the work of up to 20 regular bobby pins, and and are such a cinch to use to create amazing up-dos! Just twist your hair into a bun (high or low), spin one pin from the top, and the second one up from the base, and voila – you’re done! As someone with fairly thick hair, I can attest to spin pins’ durability – the up-do holds every time…without elastics, hairspray, whatever. Oh, and they come in two convenient colors: blonde and brunette! You can find these magical pins at Wal Mart.

3) Hana Elite Flat Iron 1.5″ at Misikko

After an entire summer of flat-iron-free existence, the heat is back on! After trying out Hana Elite Flat Iron (courtesy of Misikko), I don’t ever want to go back to my old iron. The plates of this flat iron are super smooth, and heat up in a flash. And since the plates are also wider (Hana Elite 1.5″ Flat Iron is the first and only pure ceramic plate flat iron in the world to be available in a wider plate size) – flattening my hair takes literally minutes! And when the days are shorter, noone wants to spend too much time on primping.

Another cool feature of this iron is the temperature dial! This is something that my old iron did not have – and it makes such a difference, as different hair types require different temps. After playing around with the dial, I found the perfect setting for my hair.

Hana Elite Flat Iron is literally a salon-quality iron, with a ton of amazing features. It gets the job done better than any iron I’ve owned before, and with a two-year warranty – you know it won’t be dying on you any time soon. If you want to check out the entire line of Hana products, head on over to Misikko for the best selection.
