If you aren’t familar with the Bespoke T3 line, here’s some background on it: there are a lot of tourmaline hair dryers on the market, but most of those only have a coating of tourmaline (a substance that produces negative ions when heated, which in turn evaporates water in your hair faster). The T3 Evolution dryer doesn’t just have a thin coating (which wears off over time), it has actual tourmaline crystals in it, so the dryer will last longer, and your hair will stay in better condition. (FYI – the way the T3 dries your hair, it doesn’t strip moisture from inside the hair shaft, so you won’t end up frying your hair in the process). It’s also incredibly light, a feature that I wouldn’t have thought made a difference for me, but it does – it’s far easier to get at different angles when drying, which speeds up the process all the more. It has a four year warrenty, so you don’t have to worry about spending money and then being out of a hair dryer in two months. You register it when you get the dryer and you are set.

It really does dry far faster than other blowdryers. If I recall correctly, when I clocked it on two different days (one dry day, one day that was raining), the T3 took shaved off about 15 minutes from my routine.

The T3 Evolution retails for $300 at Sephora, so this is a really good deal.

Be sure to massage some extra into your ends to keep them in top shape - it’s pretty unlikely that the oil from your scalp makes it all the way down to your ends if you have long hair.

Bonus tip: you can use this mask as a styling aid. Take a small amount and rub it between your hands and apply to wet hair like a styling cream and then blow-dry it in. I’ve done both straight and curly/wavy styles with this technique, and it’s a great way to deep condition your hair when you are on the go. My hair doesn’t look dirty or greasy with it in like this – just make sure to use a small amount, and you can adjust it each time you try it after if it isn’t enough.

Frederic Fekkai Protein Rx Reparative Treatment Mask is available at Sephora.com for $28.50.

When it’s raining or snowing and the humidity inclines my hair towards curls, I really like using Frederic Fekkai Luscious Curls Cream. It is light enough to let your curls bounce but strong enough to keep frizz in check. And it has a beautiful fruity scent – kind of an understated sweet peachy scent.

Available at Beauty.com and Sephora for $19.50.
