Thanks to Jennifer Aniston, a flat-iron is as important as a bottle of water. According to the Daily Mail, the Office of National Statistics declared that flat irons will replace the blow dryer in the cost of living basket–an indicator used to determine price inflation on essential products. Apparently, Jennifer Aniston influenced this shift. While I don’t think Jennifer Aniston influenced my straight hair, I do know that when I broke my flat iron, I almost had a panic attack and I replaced it immediately. Whether you don’t have a flat iron (doubt it), you could always use an emergency backup, check out these three flat irons that will keep your hair straight, along with the best hair products, to help you stay sane.
