My Straight Hair Routine

The Players: Turbie Twist Microfiber Hair Towel / Jilbere Ceramic Extreme Professional Hair Dryer 

Rusk STR8 Anti Frizz, Anti Curl Lotion / Conair Hairbrush / Professional Hair Straightener / Clip

I have finally gotten into a good routine when it comes to wearing my hair straight.  Naturally my hair is extremely wavy... borderline curly, so it's much easier to wear my hair curly (the way it naturally wants to be). Well, the grass is always greener... I love wearing my hair straight.  So here is what I do.

1.  After my morning shower I put my hair up in a Turbie Twist.  I swear by these things.  I love how my hair stays neatly in the towel while I make my bed, read morning e-mails, drink coffee and pick out my outfit of the day.  The Turbie Twist makes my life so much easier!

2.  Once I am ready to blow out my hair I brush it to get all the tangles out.  Then I put a squeeze of Rusk STR8 Anti Frizz, Anti Curl Lotion in my hair and brush it through once more.

3.  I take a clip and separate my hair into sections to blow dry it.  As I blow dry each section, I brush through it to keep it straight.  I repeat this process with each section of hair until my hair is about 95% dry.

4.  Once my hair is almost dry I flip my head over to finish blow drying it.  This helps ensure that my hair is not too flat on top (I despise hair that is flat to my head).

5.  After my hair is completely dry, I brush through it one last time before straightening it.  At this point my hair is about 80% straight, so I do not have to do much straightening which makes this step pretty quick.

I hope all of that made sense.  

Do you straighten your hair each morning?

seeing spots.

Recently I have gotten a few e-mails from some of my favorite brands featuring polka-dots.  I immediately fell in love with the items and decided I needed a few spotted items in my wardrobe.  So today I decided to put together a few of my favorite polka-dot items.

ponytails.

I used to wear ponytails entirely too often.  In high school I wore one almost everyday (mainly because I would wake up too late to actually do my hair before school).  Recently, I feel like I wear my hair half-up half-down all the time.  On Pinterest I have found a lot of new ways to wear the traditionally boring ponytail... they are much more fun!

hair.

Pinterest has inspired me to try new ways to do my hair.  I am horrible at doing my own hair (I can straighten and scrunch... that is about it).  But, I hope to learn a few new styles.  Here are some that I've found that I would like to learn how to do.
