Weather the Storm...

Rain, Rain go away, my pretty hair wants to look good today!


Ladies don't succumb to bad hair days.. not on my watch!
My BEST tip- apply an anti frizz serum all over & blowout your hair the night before. The nights rest will help your hair's cuticles calm down so it isn't as apt to frizz. Or use the weather as an excuse to get a little creative.

Hairbands
Go Schoolgirl Chic like Blair (GG)


Try a mod ponytail


A fun braid (works great for bangs or flyways)

Add Lorac's brown liner on top of your regular liner for a more subtle look

For more staying power use a eyeshadow primer. Add individual fake lashes for a more dramatic look

if you are going to play up your eyes, keep the rest of your face neutral!

Spray for the day

No time for a wash and blow dry? Fear not dolls, dry shampoo is here to the rescue. Here are a few I stand behind.

Orlando Pita Voluminizing Dry Shampoo ($28 at Sephora/Ulta)
my favorite because it comes in 3 shades and really gives your hair a boost as well as absorbing extra oils. A bottle last about 3 months with weekly use.
**Style TIP**works even better if you apply a little heat from the blow dryer or flat iron. Also comes in dry conditioner form.


Rene Furterer Naturia ($31 Sephora/ Ulta or high end salons) Another great alternative to "lathering, rinse, repeat". Extends your limp lots another full day. Draw back is it has a musky odor that dissipates after a few minutes.
Bedhead Rockaloics Dirty Secrets ($18 at retail salons)
Nice fresh scent & works well for the price. Doesn't give the root lift that Orlando Pita can deliver.


AVOID- Oscar Blondie dry shampoo
Heavy smell of lemon cleaner. From my experience the product evaporates after a few uses. Sephora claims the brand is fixing the issue. Until then- stear clear!
