For my birthday I decided to treat myself for a haircut. I originally went to this new place by my house. Price was good and it was so convenient for me so I went in. I’m a trained hairdresser and have not had the ‘real’ salon experience in over 7 years. Going in I decided not to share this detail about myself in case it made her nervous. [Read more…]
Ways to make your hair last days!
We all know its not good to wash your hair everyday so what are we supposed to do with limp hair when day 2 or 3 roll around??
I usually have 2-3 day cycles of washing my hair. My hair is pretty wavy naturally and the ends get really dry and frizzy. By not washing my hair everyday really helps bring the natural oils to the ends. The ends feel great on day 3 but the roots on the other hand are not looking the greatest. For years Ive usually done day 1 being down, day 2 being half up and day 3 all the way up.
Ive put together a video on some options to get you through the 3 day hair cycle. They are easy and fun!!
I was excited to have some extra time Monday morning and evening to do some Taylor Swift inspired waves and film a tutorial. The first video is all about that. The next one is where the goodies are. I have done a super cute half updo with some cute pink flowers on day 2 and a cute braided hairstyle on day3. I had fun filming this…even though it was at 6 in the morning and before work.
Now not washing your hair for 3 days does not mean to skip the shower or bath for 3 days. Protect your dry hair with a cute shower Cap 🙂
