HANAair Hair Dryer Review

A few months ago, the wonderful people at Misikko sent me their award-winning hair dryer, the HANAair to review. Not only did they send an incredible hair dryer, but lots of other amazing goodies as well. 





I was pretty excited to use this hair dryer, because I am somewhat of a major cheap-o when it comes to beauty products. The nicest hair dryer I've ever owned probably cost me $25 at Target, so I was very interested to see if there would be a noticeable difference. 
Honestly, I was stunned at how much more powerful the HANAair is. It literally cut the time I usually spend drying my hair in half, which is huge for me since it takes forever to dry and style my crazy-thick hair! I also noticed a big difference in my hair- it was much softer and not nearly as frizzy. Because my hair was much more tame, my flat iron time was also cut in half. And since I like to spend as little time as possible on my hair, this time-saving tool would be worth every penny. 

Here's the before and after- see the HUGE difference!? The BEFORE is when I used my previous, cheap-o hair dryer. The AFTER is using the HANAair for the first time...amazing! I barely had to touch up with my straight iron!

I would highly recommend this hair dryer...go here to get your own!

CampusBookRentals.com

Get ready because I'm bringing a great company to you today!

First up is CampusBookRentals.com. When they contacted me to do this review, I immediately agreed because Doug actually used them for all of his books while he was getting his MBA. He has nothing but wonderful things to say about them! Basically, he paid a fraction of the original price, the books were mailed to him, and he would simply mail it back at the end of the semester! Easy peasy.

Campus Books Rentals offers:
- 40-90% off of bookstore prices
- free shipping both ways
- you can highlight in the books
- flexible rental periods
- they donate to Operation Smile with each rental (LOVE this!)

Here's an example of how much you could save. This Marketing book normally costs $102.95 in campus bookstores. You can get it for $58.30 on CampusBookRentals.com!!

Also, CampusBookRentals.com is donating over 1,000 cleft lip surgeries this year. When I know that a company is so generous to donate for a great cause, it makes me want to use them that much more!

And I really wish I had known about them while I was in college...we all know how expensive books are and I could have saved hundreds! But now you all have that opportunity, so go check them out! :)
