Hairtales & Fairytales- A HANAair Giveaway

Hi Love Muffins!

I am not in the brightest of moods today so I'm hoping this fun post today cheers me up! We got a standard Colorado snow storm last night and unfortunately 7 inches isn't enough to keep me from work so I had to make the dreaded commute which took me close to two hours. That move to just about anywhere else is looking pretty good right about now. I hope Whitney has room for me and Lily at the Princess Palace.. we'd love some sunshine right about now.


Anyways, let me tell you a little story..

Once upon a time there was a blonde haired blogger who saw all of her blogger buddies getting bestowed with pretty hair tools from a magical place called Misikko. She dreamt of someday getting her very own and hoped and prayed that someday she would. Meanwhile, she dried her hair with her Conair hair dryer that was taped together after one too many falls of the counter. One day her wish came true and she found a pretty white box waiting on her door step. It was the HANAair Professional Hair Dryer and it was beautiful. Oh, and that blonde haired blogger was me.. duhz.


From the first time I used it I was sold, not only did it leave my hair looking fabulous.. but it was faster, stronger, and made my hair softer than any other hair dryer I've ever used. From wet to dry only takes me about 10 minutes which really is magic for the girl who leaves for work at 7:00am. Truthfully I could probably leave my hair in it's freshly blow dried state, but usually I run either my Chi straightener or my Argan Oil curling iron through it to finish styling it. BEWARE: no makeup pictures are located below.. I don't want to scare you!


Here are the products that I've been using along with the hair dryer to get my everyday look. I'm a firm believer that you don't have to use the most expensive products to get the best results. The hair dryer and the serum are the only two things below that cost more than $20! The organix products and hair brush can be purchased at Ulta with a trusty 20% of coupon, the curling iron is a 1 and 1/4 inch from Sally's, and the Kerastase serum was purchased from Birchbox with a coupon.


My Hair Tools

The other day, I came home to yet another pretty white box and I can only assume that means that Misikko would like me to be your fairy god mother today and bestow one of you lucky ladies with this magical hair dryer. I hope the lucky princess who wins it enjoys it as much as I enjoy mine! If you don't win, the hair dryers are on sale right now and they are definitely worth the higher price.


Good luck lovelies!

I would LOVE to have this dryer. It takes me forever and a day to get my hair dry in the morning, and I've been coveting one of those prestige hair dryers for a while know. ;)

My ALL time favorite hair care product is Sebastian's Potion 9 serum. It works as a heat protectant, frizz tamer, leave-in conditioner all in one that ISN'T greasy. Love, love love!

My favorite hair product is definitely anything by Big Sexy Hair! Especially Straight Sexy Hair, gotta keep that friz down!

Natalie Hinkley said...

Frizz Ease serum, the best!

Ellen said...

Moroccan oil

CassLangley said...

I'm pretty simple and cheap when it comes to hair care. I use suave shampoo and cheap home hair dyes. My favorite tool is probably my straightner which is some cheap version too since I didn't splurge or anything. I have straight hair anyway so I didn't need any powerful tool, just use it for touching up some areas. :-)

Rare Nonsense said...

I love Big Sexy Hair powder. I have crappy hair and it gives it great body

Breanna said...

Moroccan Oil works wonders in my hair!

Jennifer said...

My favorite product is no-poo from Devachan hair salon.

Jill said...

ALL TIME FAV hair product?! Oh dear. I'm going to have to go with more of a tool...the FLAT IRON! My first legit flat iron changed my life. My hair is so naturally textured and wavy/wiry, that w/out it I look like a walking humidity bubble. I've been using a GHD for the last 7 years. I ordered the Hana original but sent it back because it didn't "grab" my hair tightly enough. I'm about to order a Croc to try it out (also from Misikko) next week. Hopefully I'll like it but if I don't, its back to GHD, ha! I keep wishing the people at Misikko would gift me something too...but its not happened yet so I give them $, ha

Lauren said...

My fav hair product is my Chi!

Whitney said...

I love my CHI Silk Serum. Sure, I'm a little biased, since I worked for the company for 4 months, but still. It's pretty great!

Mary said...

Tough one! I LOVE Sebastian products, especially the shine spray!

Janna Renee said...

Baby powder is my fave, because then I don't have to wash it every day ;) #lazy
I wish I had gotten the dryer instead of the straightener! It's double the price!

Coley said...

My new favorite product is "Got 2b Powder-ful" volumizing powder!

My hair staple that I've always used for years though is Paul Mitchell's "Skinny Serum", I always apply that before blow drying my hair =)

Brandi said...

What an awesome giveaway! I've been drooling over all of Misikko's hair products for a while now!
As for my favorite hair product? Paul Mitchell's Skinny Serum and their Skinny Balm! I always apply them before blowdrying.

Meredith said...

I love my ion heat protecting spray

Marquis Clarke said...

My favorite is my Lanza straightening gel

Emily B said...

OMG I heard the Hana hairdryer is awesome! My hair is pretty wild so a good hairdryer is a def must. Also thank for hosting the weekend linkup :-)

Rena m said...

I am loving the kenra products right now.
And your old dryer sounds like my current one. =) haha

Emily said...

To tell you the truth, I don't really have a favorite product-yet. I LOVE my hair straightener, and use it every day --- but normally buy based on price. I would LOVE to win a real hairdryer!

Bri said...

Smoothing serum!

NSR.25 said...

My all time favorite hair product is Tigi Masterpiece Hairspray, makes my hair shine while holding the style, it doesn't leave your hair stiff and smells fantastic!!!

I have always LOVED my Paul Mitchell Super Skinny. It smells like apples and it makes my hair feel super soft!! Awesome Giveaway!

Rachel said...

Well I really love to use Tresemme shine and anti frizz spray. When i curl my hair it makes my hair look amazing!
Thanks for the amazing giveaway

shaeken said...

My all time favorite product? Cue little girl comments here, because it'sl....

DETANGLER!!!

No for real, I love detangler to the moon and back. I have super fine and pretty long hair, and I drive a Jeep, AND I live in Oklahoma where the wind comes sweeping down the plains! Put all that together and you have a very tangle-headed girl.

And also, my blow drier died so I'm using a poopy one. My mom is also using a poopy one. I would totally share with her if I won.

Ta-da, end of long comment. hearts.
