One Styling Tools: Crush 1” Flat Iron Review- Say Bye-Bye to Boring!

Even though I’ve had straight hair since the day I was born, I’ve been straightening it with flat irons since I was in high school. Flat Irons aren’t just for those with a head of massive curls or even wavy hair. I use them to add shine to my hair and tame the unmanageable, unruly frizz that my hair has.

One Styling has plenty of Styling Products that will leave you open mouthed and drooling. They aren’t just gorgeously designed but high quality and affordable as well. Inside a very small package arrived the flat iron of my dreams.

I was sent the One Crush 1” Flat Iron to review. Everyone knows that lime green is my go-to favorite color of all time. I was super excited to see that they had a white flat iron with lime green plates. “Ahhhhhhhh… I just imagine the birds singing me my very own song.”

My hair has definitely been thanking me since I’ve started using the Crush One 1” Flat Iron. My hair looks and feels so amazing, shiny, and smooth. All the frizz from the humidity of the summer is long gone, thank God because I was beginning to think I was related to Simba and deserved a role in the Lion King. With this flat iron all the frizz is gone and all that’s left behind is remarkably gorgeous hair.

This flat iron has an off/on switch on the inside and a red light comes on to let you know that it’s been turned on. It also has a temperature dial on the inside as well, which ranges from 140* to 450*.

It seriously makes me feel like I could walk onto the set of a Pantene commercial and steal the spotlight. My hair just looks so sleek and silky now and it’s completely effortless! My hair is straight but it also very stubborn. I crank that dial up all the way up to 450* and give it a minute to work it’s magic and get super hot!

I absolutely love the fact that it takes me less than 15 minutes total to straighten all my hair. This is a high quality flat iron for a third of the cost of the others yet works just as great as they do if not better. It’s excellency at it’s best.

Other flat irons usually snag and pull my hair. It makes me feel like I am going half bald and might be all the way bald at some point if I kept using them. My mom has short hair and some that pull my hair don’t pull hers, so it might be the fact that my hair is super long.

This flat iron is ideal for all hair types thanks to the wide temperature range. You would use the lowest temperature setting (140*) for very thin or short hair. If  you have extremely thick, unruly, or curly hair you’ll need to kick it in high gear and use it on the highest temperature setting (450*).

It traps in the moisture, so you don’t ever have to worry about it damaging your hair or drying it out. I love that fact that it seems to suck the dullness right out of my hair. It definitely adds a ton of shine while making my hair look healthy and beautiful. It seems to have magically bottled up sunshine and delivers it to each strand every time I flat iron my hair! AMAZING!

I couldn’t be happier with this flat iron if I tried! It fits in my hand perfectly. I don’t have to worry about it slipping out of my hand and accidentally burning me. I love the fact that the on/off switch and temperature dial are on the inside of the flat iron so I don’t accidentally turn it off as I’m fixing my hair.

Review: Verge Bubble Wand By One Styling Tools

Messy Up-do’s, braids, and waves are the new “IN” for hair styling. “The more messy the hair is, the better it is.” Verge by One Bubble Wand is a new styling tool from ONE. It creates beautifully imperfect curls and waves.

I was super excited to be given the chance to work with ONE. They have an amazing variety of tools; flat irons, blow dryers, curling irons! You name it and they have the best of the best!

I am still absolutely in AWE of how pretty the bubble wand is. I was sent a pink one, and it has a glitter finish. I could really see it sparkle when I pulled it out of the box. This isn’t something I’ve seen EVER in styling tools. I love it!

 

You can KIND of see the glitter in this one. As you can tell- this is a very unique product! It uses Nano Gold (NG) ceramic to guarantee an even heating throughout the barrel.

The older models of styling tools can be damaging to your hair, EXTREMELY damaging. What you used 5 years ago is outdated, so you definitely need to check into something that isn’t so harsh. When your hair becomes damaged from heat styling, it becomes brittle and lifeless. It can also cause extreme frizz and stubborn split ends.

To avoid the damage that outdates styling tools do to your hair,  definitely check into ONE Styling Products! All of their products are VERY helpful at maintaining the health of your hair. The Ceramic Technology lets the heat from the tool spread evenly throughout the hair. Older models don’t have this quality and tend to make certain parts of the hair hotter than others.

This bubble wand has the metal rest at the bottom that prevents it from slipping off the counter. This made it extremely easy for me to set it down on the counter while adjusting the strands of my hair.

Believe it or not, but I have a wand that DOESN’T have a rest on the bottom. SO it makes it REALLY hard to sit it down. When I do, I have to balance it on top of something that I know isn’t going to get so hot that it catches fire.

This rest makes it SAFE to sit on the counter, I don’t have to worry that it’s going to unexpectedly roll off on top of me or hit the floor.

I also love that this has a tiny little clip made for grabbing your hair. It also helps so that you aren’t  burning your fingers. That curling rod that I mentioned earlier? It didn’t have a clip and I ended up burning my hand wrapping my hair around the barrel.

I love that this clip DOES hold the hair VERY well. There weren’t pieces falling out or coming loose. It held my hair perfectly, so I ended up with nothing but perfect curls!

The iron gets hot VERY quickly, reaching the temperature of 410*. BUT the tip of the bubble wand doesn’t get hot. It DOES get warm, but I can still stick my fingers on the tip, so that I have control over the wand while doing my hair.

I love this because my curls can hold ALL day and the next day if I wanted. I love that with this 1 styling tool, I can get many different looks. I can get the spring loaded curls on the right just by holding the bubble wand close and wrap the strands tightly.

I can also run my hands through my hair a couple of times and get this amazing beachy love wave look. I LOVE this messy little look. It’s perfect to showcase my black lowlights!

BUY IT: You can buy the VERGE Bubble Wand for $120 and it’s available in pink and black.

Review: One Styling Tools; Crush Citrus Green Blow-Dryer

As a 20-something fashionista, I have went through my share of hair dryers. I’ve had all ranges- little, big, cheap, expensive. Unless you’ve had the same hair dryer for the past decade- then you must know about the new technology offered in hair dryers these days.

We’ve all had the experience of staying at a friends house, relatives house, or hotel where we got to use another hair dryer then the one we’re used to. SOME blowdryers DO work better than others, you can just TELL.

I was sent the One Crush Blowdryer in Citrus Green. This dryer is the dryer of my dreams! It had me at hello, I swear. It comes in four colors; Citrus Green (lime green), Raspberry (pink), Black, and White. I love when companies offer different color choices in their styling tools, it makes my counter look AMAZING!

This blowdryer is ergonomically designed, which means it’s designed for comfort. Who said beauty couldn’t be comfortable? It is just the right size to wrap my hands around without them getting tired!

From someone with REALLY long hair- it was nice to get a professional looking AND feeling blow-dry at home without too much effort on my part. This little beauty is EXTREMELY powerful, and not ear-blasting loud like some hair-dryers that I’ve owned in the past.

As someone who frequently blow-dries my hair, I can tell you that NOT all blow dryers are the same. Most people think a dryer is just a heater with a fan attached, when reality is that- it isn’t true and there are plenty things to tell them apart and to decide the best!

When looking for a quality hair dryer, it’s best to get one with ceramic tourmaline technology. This is what eliminates the frizz and locks in moisture. This might not matter to you, until you realize that this will help your overall hair health in the end.

I know you’ve heard of blow dryers, straighteners, and curling irons damaging hair. When you get a dryer with ceramic tourmaline technology, there is extremely less damage then regular dryers.

It works on the interior hair molecules, drying the hair inside out instead of just heating it up and causing damage. It helps to split the moisture (water) on the hair into smaller pieces so that the hair dries fast without leaving your hair all frizzed out.

The “ceramic” part doesn’t mean that the dryer is made of ceramic, it just means that the coils inside the dryer is made of ceramic instead of copper. Ceramic gives off even heating, so there aren’t any hot spots and the dryer heats up more quickly.

This dryer is also made with far-infrared heat. This also helps dry the hair quickly, but it also stimulates the scalp and hair. It increases the blood flow to the hair roots, helping to trigger new hair growth. It also helps enhance the overall texture of hair, leaving it silky and soft!

My hair not only looks healthier, but it feels healthier. I can tell a huge difference in the frizz factor, which has reduced greatly. My hair feels so smooth now, instead of a big frizz ball like it did before. I tried every possible anti-frizz serum when blowdrying with my other blowdryer and it NEVER helped. Especially in the warmer months.

I love that this dryer has a professional motor- which means I’ll get MORE time getting to use this beautiful tool. It comes with the concentrator (the black tip you see in the picture up top).

It has the buttons that let you turn up the speed and temperature on the dryer which is what I love. When I give my daughter a bath in the morning before we head out (and I don’t want her getting sick) I can put it on the lowest setting and dry her hair. I can put it on the highest setting (which is my favorite) and I can dry my super long hair within 10 minutes!

I also love that it has a cool shot button. After I am drying my hair, I can blast my hair with the cool shot button (which blasts out room temperature air instead of hot). It really just turns the heater off, so that when I “shoot” my hair with the room temp air- it will set my look!

It has an extra long cord on it, which I love. I hate being so close to the plug-in that I can’t flip my head over and blow dry it like that. This cord is EXTRA long, so I have plenty of moving room!

This gives me volume all over my hair (which hangs limply if it isn’t blown dry). I love that I can flip my hair over and get instant root lift! It’s so much better than having to use a million products (anti-frizz, volume mousse, and root lifter). Now all I have to do is blow-dry and be on my way!

This is the perfect gift to give your sister, daughter, or best friend. Any girl or woman would definitely love to have this!
