Nostalgia has a way of bringing me comfort. Lately, I’ve been leaning into vices I forgot I had. For example, I haven’t drank Diet Coke in years, but I can’t get through my day without craving one lately. I’ve been indulging this more than I probably should be at the moment, but the refreshing taste of an ice cold Diet Coke has been bringing me joy that I desperately need, so I’ll let it stay for now.
When I noticed that CHI Haircare was joining together with Barbie, I let out a little squeal. I love the color pink and I was obsessed with Barbie as a kid. I have three girls now, who are all completely obsessed as well. We’ve already given all the tools and products a shot, so I wanted to give you the lowdown!
CHI Haircare & Barbie Dream Pink Collection
CHI has some of the best heat tools I have ever tried. I have long and thick hair with a coarse texture. I need the high heat and titanium plates that you just can’t find on some of the lower end heat tools. I also like my hairstyle to last all day without wilting, whether I’m straightening it or curling it. CHI hair tools are the bomb. And now they come in Barbie Pink!
I’ve detailed each of the products available in this collab below, and if you want to know my favorites, scroll to the end.

What do you NEED?
If you’re looking for a fun beauty splurge, this is it! I’ve been sectioning my hair out on the crown of my head and spraying the volume spray, using the thermal protection spray before heat styling, and finishing up with the silk infusion. I love how glossy and fresh my hair looks with the products, how sleek the iron is, and how pretty the curls from the curling iron are.
CHI has some of the best hair styling products as well as heat tools. I don’t think you could go wrong with any of them. If you can only choose one, I would choose the silk infusion and the straightening iron. Both are absolute staples for me right now. Just getting ready in the morning has been a huge accomplishment for me during stay-at-home, and reaching for all things pink to get ready has really been a boost!
