HAIR TUTORIAL: EVERYDAY CURLS

Disclaimer: it was humid and my hair wasn't working very well. This is the final product when its humid for me!
Sorry these turned out all bad quality. 
Next tutorial will be my Glamours Curls! :) Better photos with my photographer soon as well.
Hope your okay with these.

How crazy right? Its way fuller and huge curls are the best! Now here's my tutorial of how I do my curls:
What you will need:
- Brush- any type is fine for brushing your hair
- heat protectant and curl enhancer spray (if you hair doesn't hold a curl...this is what I use)
- 25mm wand or a 1 inch curling iron/wand
- hairspray
-Extensions (optional-I use it to give my hair more volume and it holds my curls more easy)
-Curling iron glove (Optional- if your used to curling with a wand then your fine, if your new to curling wands, I would recommend using a glove so you don't burn your hands)
- I have too much hair so I use a big clip to hold all my hair while I curl


How I do my hair:

Step #1: Spray your hair with heat protectant all over then brush it so it goes all over. Section off your hair from the bottom, I do about 5 sections going up since I have a lot of hair; then add your extensions in then we can start curling. If you don't have extensions it's totally fine, you can still do it with out extensions. :)

Step #2 I start at the bottom of my hair, then pull the rest up and clip it. Spray some of the curl enhancer on one of the sides, then brush it out.  The trick I use for the bottom and going up, I hold the curling iron up and sometimes down--today we will do it up for the first couple of sections. I will take about 1 inch of hair and start curling it. I wait about 8-13 seconds or if the hair feels hot I will then take it down (don't hold it too long). I just leave the curl as is, the curl will loosen up when you keep doing the rest of your hair. Then repeat for the next sections and I will see you at the top. I tend to keep the bottom more loose so it flows better.

Repeat for the next sections going up....

Step 3: Now I'm at the top, this gets a little tricky sometimes with my hair since it doesn't always want to hold a curl. You have to point the curling iron down for the top part of this and hold it a little longer so it will make it more curly and to blend in with the rest of the hair. You basically do the same things: Spray, brush then curl holding it down.  I usually have to do my bangs multiple times to get it to be where I want it to be. Then you can mess it around and make it how curly or how wavy you want it.  Then put as much hairspray as you want. I use the one that you can still brush through it and it's not sticky or hard on your hair.

Tada this is how I do my hair. This style works with just about every length and texture of hair so no worries! Also the curling enhancer makes them hold the curls and it helps to last all day and into the next day (they are more loose). Just remember, I don't normally do it on humid day's or else it doesn't work well with my hair. You can now do this all year around. I love it in the fall and winter since it's not so hot and your curls wont get all greasy and all sweaty when your in the summer.

I love this look because you can be wearing a really casual outfit and you can still look pretty amazing because of the big curls. 

PS: I was tired when I did these, sorry if I look all weird, I have been writing 2 (15 page papers due soon), so I'm pretty tired and other tests as well. Oh the life of a college student.

Happy Thursday! Today is all about this lovely dress in a beautiful location at Murray Park. We were driving around the park to see what else they have in store for us and found this lovely gazebo and it was just lovely. This dress is from Joe Browns, they have some amazing items at their store! This dress is a eye catcher, didn't think I could pull it off but when the photo's appeared I was like heck yes this is a lovely dress! The funny thing was I didn't even try on the dress till we took pictures that day, I always forget to try the dresses on before hand and then when I go I'm like OMG totally forgot to try it on to see if it fits. It's a perfect fit though! This dress is beatufiul on and on a outfit layout I did on instagram a while back when I got this dress and finally got to taking photo's.

In other news, summer semester is almost to it's end, most of my classes will end at the end of July! I'm going to miss my human sexuality class, it was one hilarious class because the teacher made it more fun. Wish there was more girls in that class, there's only like 3 and like 10 guys. Guess only guy's want to go to it, it's more of an anatomy class with how humans have sex, babies etc. I'm going to miss my other class which is Family and Marriage class, the teacher is adorable and we always had a great time in her class! I learned so much in this class about how families, relationships and marriages work. I'm not married or even have a boyfriend, but I learned tons about things I should probably do when I am in a relationship--if I even have time for a boyfriend Lol. I have been single for 3.5 years, school takes tons of my time plus studying and my blog takes some of my time too! It's okay though, I don't need a guy to keep me happy, most guys these days just aren't what I want. :) Happy Thursday!

Pink Skater Dress: ℅  WalG  (Similar // Similar)/ Floral Heels: Payless (Love these! // Similar

I'm in love with this skater dress from WalG! These were taken at the Market Street Place as well, but we went down to the canal and had a fun shoot! I'm really loving this place to take photo's! I wish there were sand in Utah, but there's not. Anyways, lets talk about this pretty dress. This dress fits you so perfectly and makes you look slimmer at the waist and just flares at the perfect place. I love when I can get dresses that actually fit my body really well. I'm really digging skater dresses they make me so happy, even though they are a little short on me but it still works! :) I guess they can be good for some instances ya know! ;)

WalG is a United Kingdom Company, they make the cutest things and have adorable clothing. They have all different types of clothing item's for you all to wear. They have dresses, shoes, tops, skirts, etc. Everything you ever wanted. I love this shop, plus they aren't too bad at the prices. If your in the USA make sure you have it in US dollars or else I'm not sure how to calculate those types of prices. There's probably a way online, but just so you know to change it to US dollars if your in the USA. They have different types of clothing such like: Tops, Bottoms, jeans, and dresses! I thought this was perfect for a nice summer day and just wear a floppy hat as well. This outfit is more of a going on a night with your girl friends, or go on a date! :)

Don't forget to come back on Monday! I will be having a $50 credit to their store!!!
:) :) :)

My Hair and Care

So I guess I will do a Hair care and what I do, I do not use Conditioner, because it makes my hair super oily, so I usually just have shampoo that makes your hair last for a couple of days of not washing it. So I found a shampoo at Walmart by Organix, it's the coconut oil one or the Moroccan oil one. I used to love Head and Shoulders but I would always need to wash it everyday and that's not good, so I tried millions of shampoo's but now I found one that lasts for like 3-4 days of not washing, but that's with my hair, it's very thick and straight.
So the curling iron i use is from Sally's Beauty Supply by Plugged (Here) so you can see if it works for you hair, and it lasts for a couple of days. I don't use dry shampoo, it doesn't work on my hair for some odd reason.

But this is the curls that the Sally's Plugged curling iron does to my hair.
