Curly hair for the summer MUST!


since i hate, hate, HATE attempting to have straight hair in the summer (i say attempt because lets be honest its freaking hot; hair gets frizzy; nasty; and ugly); my solution is to just wet it and leave it be. only problem is that most of the stuff I've tried leaves my hair super greasy, dries it out, drenches it in that white stuff gel leaves behind, or gives me no volume! whats hair without volume? no thanks! specially curls! so I'm always on the look out for stuff that gives me volume; and frizz control without taking away from my curls like some of these gels do. i found this lovely 3 products that i think you guys will love. first one is Garnier Fructis wonder waves. this works great! hmm the smell takes some getting use to because its a really strong lemon kind of smell that some people might not really like, but overall my curls looked great. i might wear my hair curly everyday till September lol. the second one is the curl construct mousse. this was the last one in my scale of likeness out of the 3; just because it left my hair a little crunchy which is what i was trying to avoid; but the less you use; the less crunchy your hair ends up. the smell; again was a little overwhelming; but other than that its a pretty good mousse. i used both together just so that i wouldn't have to use so much mousse. the last and my FAVORITE is the tresemme flawless curl; curl hydration. love, love, LOVE this. smells amazing, leaves my hair soft, not greasy, AMAZING in other words. best thing about it; it was like 3.99; which is great because i have ALOT of freaking hair; and I'm gonna be using this stuff alot this summer. overall; i highly recommend the tresemme flawless curl! the wonder waves spray is my runner up; and the mousse; hmmm i hate to love i guess; because of the crunchy texture that it leaves; but i will re buy all 3!

If you guys learn anything from reading my blog, please let it be this! IRON GUARD! and yes in capital letters because its THAT important. for you girls that flat iron your hair every single day, i hope to god you guys use this because if ya don't; then....wow. Heat tamer sprays should be your number one thing; flat irons KILL your ends; and damage your hair so much that it keeps it from growing. I've been there, done that! my hair had months that it didn't grow an inch because i was just sucking the life right out of it, or should i say flat ironing the life out of it. besides trying not to use the iron everyday; I've been using the iron guard; and its helped TONS! flat irons regardless shouldn't be for every single day use; but even if its just once a week; spray a little of this on; or any heat tamer spray of your choice; but definitely don't skip this step girls!

big SEXY hair!

I'VE BEEN BOUGHT!!! so as any regular, working woman; i dont always have the time to go to the salon. i hate the waiting, the having to be there super early just to not get out of there by 7; and i hate that you have to go by their schedule. how great would it be to have someone just do your hair when ever you have the time; or when ever your free? well since the salons dont usually open Sunday's; Saturday's are too packed; and weekdays are for working; i decided that hmm maybe i'll do my hair at home. lets admit it ladies salons are rough on the wallet sometimes; dishing out 25 + dollars a week adds up; and thats money we could be spending on some FAB shoes!! i've been hunting around for a hair care line that i can use at home and isnt in the million dollar budget and i think i have a winner. its the SEXY HAIR line. mind you this line comes in a couple different branches; they have the BIG sexy hair; CURLY sexy hair; HEALTHY sexy hair; COLORED sexy hair; and etc. so they basically have a sexy hair line for what ever hair needs you have. the line has GREAT reviews online and people are loving these products so im going to give them a GO. im leaning more towards BIGsexy hair since its suppose to give you this super star volume (hmm we'll see about that). but hey! never hurts to try. i'll let you guys know how those work out for me. have you tried them?
