Yu Seo-joung’s Mercedes AMG inspired hair dryer is completely devoid of colour. Only through black and white renderings, this hair-dryer manages to capture one’s attention, showing that design detail can still be just as captivating, even in grayscale.
Another brilliant example of product semantics (or the picking up of one brand’s visual language/architecture and superimposing it somewhere else), the AMG hair dryer cleverly picks up AMG’s sporty race-car DNA elsa hair wig with a body inspired by the car’s styling. On the back, the air outlet is shaped beautifully like a car’s wheel, with rim-like details as well as the Mercedes logo right at the center. I’m half expecting the hair dryer to go vroom once it switches on!

It’s not just women with straight hair that can rock the bobby pin look, textured hair makes a nice backdrop for the linear angles of the hair grip. Which way up should they go? Remember if you’re using a bobby pin to hold your hair, it’s meant to be used with the wavy side facing your scalp. You can use them any which way to create your pattern.

It’s no secret that the summer heat can get a little intense. We all want to look our best – especially when at the pool, on vacation, or while doing other summer activities. This is why we’ve put together a list of budget-friendly wigs that help keep you cool in the summer heat… without breaking the bank!
?Short Wigs!
Summer?is the perfect time to swap out long, sleek hair and replace it with a shorter style! This will keep your neck cool while the sun rays are beating down. If you don’t feel brave enough to try a short pixie wig, like Risk by Ellen Wille, you might feel more comfortable opting for a bob, or lob, such as the uber-sexy Sweet Talk by Gabor!

Try a Capless Wig!
Wigs with basic caps have open-wefting that allows wigs to ‘breathe’. This way, you will not feel trapped underneath your wig! One of our favorite short styles with open wefting is Sky by Noriko! Sky is a spunky style… and it’s also short which will help keep you cool as well!

Try Wigs with Low Density
The sun and high-density wigs sometimes don’t get along very well. This is why we love Ellen Wille – A European wig brand that specializes in wigs with low densities. This makes Ellen Wille’s wigs appear more realistic while allowing them to help keep you cool at the same time! Ellen Wille is a customer favorite… and it’s no secret why!
