It’s ironic that the dressing table, the place where many primp and prime for the day ahead, usually resembles a bombsite.
From uncapped bottles of mousse and hairspray to bursts of scrunchies and Kirby grips, it can be a chaotic setting in which to go about looking your best. Bulky hair tools like hairdryers, straighteners, curling wands and hot brushes don’t help the situation either. But mornings are too tight to keep such electricals in their original boxes - who has time to unearth them each time you want to style your locks?
What’s needed is proper storage that keeps such tools within arm’s reach without adding piles of clutter. The right solution can streamline mornings and make your bedroom, bathroom or wherever you get finesse yourself an altogether calmer-looking space.
While there are endless hot tools to straighten, curl and volumise hair, the same, sadly, can’t be said for ideas on where to keep or how to display them. There may not be endless ideas, but there are a few lightbulb concepts - if you know where to look.
Take your cues from hairdressing salons where the tools of the trade are neatly kept in trolleys, caddies and on wall-mounted shelves. Where to find them? We’ve done the legwork to save you from doing it yourself, rounding up the best storage ideas to keep your hair electricals safe.
From wall-mounted ideas with shelves to keep styling products to minimal no-nails nozzles, find the best ways to organise your favourite hair tools below.
