My Easy Hair Go To Style...

I've had such a fun time with the feedback all of you are giving me about this week's giveaway. I've got to place an order soon, so it has been super helpful to see what everyone likes so I can add it to my trunk show collection.

Anyway, one of the comments from Confessions of a Narsaholic {amazing blog name, by the way!!} got me to thinking. I haven't done a post recently that is related to anything beauty products. The other day, I was on one of my favorite blogs and she was discussing the products she uses on her hair. The feedback she received was amazing...several products out there I want to use, including dry shampoo {any thoughts on this??}.

So, tonight I thought I would list for you my favorite way to style my hair from start to finish.

The end result looks somewhat like this. My hair has grown quite a bit and it is lighter now, so hopefully I can get a picture soon because obviously this one is old. But the whole idea is the relaxed "natural" wavy look.

Ok lets get started!!

First and foremost, I believe in investing in nice hair products. I swear by this shampoo...
And this conditioner....


Together, you're looking at around $40 {I think} and I've found that with my routine, this will last at least 2 months if not more. The combination leaves my hair exactly the way I want...healthy, shiny and maneagable. Every time I go in for highlights {which is every 6 weeks to the dot...thank you Green Peridot Salon!!}, my stylist, Shirley, rants and raves about how she can't believe how healthy my hair is and that I don't have split ends. I give all credit to biolage and the next product!!


Aveda Damage Control is a god-send to us girls with unruly hair that has to be tamed with flat irons, or any heat tool in general. Just a few sprays on hair straight out of the towel and this stuff will act as the following: Detangler {which I always desperately need}, heat protectant, product setter {is that a word?? basically its like a primer for the products you put on next...they hold on better to your hair with this stuff} and hair "perfume"...smells amazing! I also recently discovered that you can spray this on your hair the next morning to revitalize your style from the day before...really works!!

Next, I let my hair dry naturally and wear it to work wet. No hairdryer at all for this style!!

The next day, my hair has the perfect texture to create some waves from this guy...

I use the Hot Tools 1.5" barrel curling iron on the highest heat setting. Back it up. Before using this, I spray my whole head with Aveda Damage Control. Let it dry for a second, then I curl 1/2" sections until its all done {there is a tutorial that's just perfect on Cupcakes and Cashmere...scroll down and you'll find her blog...}.

Flip head over and spray the underneath side {yes...underneath} with this...



Scrunch hair just a tad then flip and you're ready to go. The best part is, I will repeat this the next morning, but it only takes 5 minutes to revamp the waves.

In conclusion, this makes for the EASIEST hairstyle ever. I only have to wash it every 3 days {which every stylist will agree... this is best for your hair} and it only takes just a minute to do.

**sometimes I will spritz on some oil control on my roots that Biolage makes if I'm on day 3
