Just when you think you've seen it all, TODAY style editor and Bobbie.com's Bobbie Thomas uncovers a few smart and simple beauty innovations.
She bangs
Bangs are hot in Hollywood right now, but you don't need to make a snip to get the style! You can try the trend for less than $20 with an Anytime clip-in piece, which is made from real human hair that you can curl, straighten, or blow dry just they way you want ($18.99; 123wigs.com). If you need a more custom approach, visit SoCapUSA.com to find a nearby salon where a pro can help you color match, cut and style a She USA clip-in for approximately $80.
(P.S. Speaking of strands, this October you can pop in a pink Hair for Hope extension in support of breast cancer awareness. 100% of net proceeds go to American Cancer Society's Making Strides Against Breast Cancer. $10, SoCapUSA.com)
No more tangles
Whether you have young daughters with long hair, or still struggle with knots yourself while blow drying, Conair's clever Retractable Bristle Brush may be the solution you've been looking for. The bristles on this round brush gently retreat back into the rod at the click of a button, instantly freeing your hair from any tangles or snags ($12.99, Conair.com).
Roll with it
And thanks to AdjustaCurl, you may never need to buy a new set of hair rollers again. A smart update on a classic way to curl your hair, Adjustacurl starts flat and rolls into any size barrel you need, from 1.5" for small waves to 4" for bigger, bouncy curls. The self-gripping rollers are also great for adding volume at your roots and offer extra ionic shine ($14.99, KMart.com or Conair.com).
