The Pros Have Spoken: These Are the Best Hair Tools to Travel With

"I love the Amika Mighty Mini Ionic Dryer ($60). It has 1000 watts, so it is not only travel-friendly but powerful too. The majority of hotels offer a blow dryer in the room complimentary, but the quality is not always there. There is a great option to upgrade your tools without taking up too much space in your suitcase." — Laurie Heaps, celebrity hairstylist

"I love the new sleek design of the Ghd Platinum+ Glacial Blue Styler ($249). Not only does it come in the perfect icy blue color, but it is also lightweight, and the rounded edges mean I can create both sleek and wavy looks. I also love that it has a universal voltage so I know I can bring it with me on my travels worldwide." — Justine Marjan, celebrity hairstylist and Ghd brand ambassador

"The Kitsch Creaseless Clips ($8) help me set waves and the hair around the face without leaving any marks. They are one of my best-kept hair secrets for super-polished-looking strands. You can use them to place the hair around the face then seal with hairspray for the perfect face framing from side to side." — JM

"The last thing I want to worry about when I'm traveling is frizz. A Mason Pearson Brush ($105) gently smooths my hair and tames frizz and flyways while adding shine." — JM

"The Aveda Wooden Paddle Brush ($27) is my number one go-to brush. It's great because I can use it to get my hair straight while blow-drying or just simply use it to detangle. Also, its wood handle makes it so lightweight." — Holly Mills, editorial hairstylist

"The BaBylissPro Ceramic Tools 1.25 Inch Spring Curling Iron ($35) is the perfect-sized curling iron for every look: If I want a really loose bend in my hair without getting too much wave, I just clamp superbig sections for a couple of seconds. If I want beach waves or glamour waves that will last me all day, I clamp smaller sections for at least six seconds each. It's ceramic, making it super light and easy to travel with." — HM

"Having a quality hair dryer is essential while being on the road — using the hotel dryer is never an option when concerned about the health of your hair. I especially love the Parlux 3800 Ecofriendly ($220) because it's compact in size, lightweight, and quiet. Further, it's eco-friendly in how it uses less electricity and is made from recyclable plastic." — Sarah Lund, hairstylist for Kevin Murphy

"The Kevin Murphy Texture Comb ($35) is perfect to comb out curls and to detangle while maintaining texture and movement. It also works great as a shower companion to work conditioner all the way through." — SL

"The Hai Beauty Concepts Sylkstyler 1 Inch Curling Iron ($60) is my go-to curling iron that I always have in my suitcase. The size is perfect to create a loose wave, and it is designed to maintain the health and shine of your hair. As a bonus, this iron has a 60-minute auto shutoff setting so I don't need to worry if I left my iron on in the hotel." — SL

"You will always find the Ghd Curve Soft Curl Iron ($200) in my bag. I always travel with it! Since it is dual voltage, you can also use it internationally for beautiful, bouncy curls anywhere in the world." — LH

"The Chi Air Compact Ceramic Mini Flat Iron ($50) is a mini iron small enough for being on the go but powerful enough to smooth and tame frizz like any full-size iron. Since it has floating curved plates, you can also use it to wave, curl, and flip, which makes it a great option when deciding which hair tools to pack." — LH
