Hair Tool Organizer DIY

Hair tools can really add up in your bathroom (or wherever you keep your hair products) — they’re expensive, and they take up a lot of space. Luckily, there are plenty of clever hacks that can help you get your styling tools and products organized so that they stay out of the way, look neater, and don’t pile up as much.

For example, a revolving spice rack or miniature Lazy Susan can be great for storing larger bottles of styling products (and even make the product easier to see). A woven basket on the side of a vanity cabinet can also do the trick, but it’s best to choose one that’s large enough to fit your biggest brushes and other items that are typically used with your tools.

Another great option is a wire hair tool organizer from mDesign, which has compartments to hold hair dryers, flat irons, curling irons, and more. The rack is sturdy and durable, and it can easily hang over a cabinet door for easy installation. Plus, the metal wire construction is heat-resistant so that you can store your tools in it while they’re still hot. The only drawback is that it may not be as tall as some users would like, but it still offers a great solution for reducing clutter and organizing your beauty products.

If you don’t want to hang a basket or a rack, another option is a drawer-style hair tool organizer that you can mount on your wall. This option can be found at Target, Walmart, Amazon, and other department or home goods stores, and it’s made from wood and has a rustic finish that can coordinate with most any decor. It has three separate storage sections to hold various sized hair tools, and it can be installed with no drilling required. It also comes with a stainless steel cup to hold your flat iron and a strip on the back where you can tuck the plugs of your tools.

Another handy tip comes from Josue Perez, a celebrity hairstylist whose clients include Sarah Jessica Parker and Awkwfina. He suggests wrapping your curling irons in bathroom towels, which will keep them safe from accidental burns and also protect your hands while you’re using them. The towels will also keep them warm while you’re storing them. This is a quick, simple hack that can really cut down on clutter and give your bathroom an instant facelift.
