We all love the sunshine, warmth, and good times that the summer brings. We don't love the sweaty, oily, frizzy hair. But fear not friends, it doesn't have to be that way! There are a few pieces of advice that will get you through the summer sans frizzes.

This piece on StyleList reminded us that when deciding on a hair regimen, it is easy to overlook one of the tools that can have the most impact on how your hair looks AND feels: the blow dryer. As summer approaches and we start analyzing the best ways to style our hair, it seems like the perfect time to go blow dryer shopping.

Here are some things you want to keep in mind when buying a dryer:

• Not all dryers are created equal. A $10 dryer and a $100 dryer ARE different and will affect your hair in different ways.
• Make sure your dryer is at least 1800 watts. This should be standard.
• Ionic and ceramic dryers are now the norm. Not only do they dry hair faster, they do less damage to the follicle.
• Attachments are your friends. Nozzles and diffusers are a must for anyone with curly hair or for fine hair that could use extra oomph.

Stylists tend to be chatty people, so before you know it, you're talking about the latest celebrity gossip, your love life, or the black market business you've established selling illegal firearms to South American rebel groups.

But while it might seem OK to share this potentially incriminating information with the man or woman shaping your finely-groomed coiffure, be careful. This new blow dryer/spy camera makes it easy for your stylist to record your tales of nefarious activity, and report to the authorities.

The seemingly innocuous little gadget comes complete with a 3.7mm wide angle lens, a 2.4 GHz receiver, and even a x-ray vision that lets you beam images up to 1500 ft -- making it easy to document your every transgression.

However, it should be fairly easy to tell if the person cutting your hair has a side gig with the CIA -- namely, because they'll be using a hair dryer that doesn't actually dry your hair. That, despite appearances, is the one thing this super-duper spy cam isn't capable of.
