With countless reasons why you might want to straighten your hair on a given day, the flat iron is an essential within the realm of the best hair-styling tools. Perhaps achieving ultra-straightness will just be the first step in styling a sleek, slicked-back pony. Maybe you fell asleep with your hair wet and want to tame some unruly waves, or you simply want to style your hair straight for added shine and uniformity.

This is why heated hair tools are essential - especially on days when your locks misbehave. While we love natural hair textures and think messy-pretty hair is always in, the fact is that we all have moments when we long for a styled-looking hairdo. Good hair days can make a person feel prepped, poised, and polished.
