The coolest accessory at the Paris Olympics? Well, besides a gold medal (which is famously hard to come by)...the portable fan has everyone talking, especially as a heat wave rolls through.
Temperatures in Paris are in the high 80s, making the Games extra-sweaty. And if you’re watching from home (or, perhaps, attempting a variation of Simone Biles’ floor routine in your yard), you won’t be spared either, as a brutal heat wave is currently moving across the United States, per Axios.
Luckily, portable fans are available on Amazon for as little as $10, and they are approved by TODAY hosts Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie, who are both on the ground in Paris to provide commentary on the competition.
“They’re like little AC units,” Hoda exclusively tells Women’s Health.
"And we feel like we’re Beyoncé!" Savannah adds.
Hoda shared the exact model the two hosts are relying on: it's the Wafting Portable Handheld fan, which is currently 25 percent off for just $29.99. This fan is rechargeable, high speed, and keeps a charge all day long, per the description.
If you need something even smaller, Amazon also offers the JISULIFE Handheld Mini Fan, which folds up, has a power bank, and flashlight. It's everything you could need in one device, and it's currently nearly half-off.
Want to go hands-free? Try Amazon's favorite Koonie Neck Fan, which is on sale now for just $17.99. As the name implies, you can wear it around your neck for on-the-go cooling.
Less sweat, cooler body temps, and the potential to have a Beyoncé hair-in-the-wind moment? Consider me sold!
