Hair Towel Turban
The travel-day blowout saver. A quick-dry turban cuts dry time, tames frizz, and buys you precious minutes. We like Aquis for featherlight absorbency, and Crown Affair’s towel gets strong reviews. Pro tip: choose a color other than white so it does not disappear with hotel laundry.

AirPods on the plane, finally. AirFly Pro plugs into the seat-back headphone jack and beams audio to wireless earbuds, so she can skip the flimsy corded set. It is tiny, charges by USB-C, and can pair two headphones for a shared movie at 36,000 feet.
