So You Want To Be A Red Head

I get asked a lot about my red hair from women who are thinking about taking the fiery plunge. I love having red hair. Dying my locks two years ago was one of the best hair decisions I’ve ever made. However, this wasn’t the first time I had red hair. I was actually born a…

Princess Crown Braid

Annie is very into braids right now, thanks to repeated viewings of the movie Tangled. She’s been asking me to put braids in her hair almost every day, which I am fine with. I like anything that a) keeps her hair from becoming a knotted mess, and b) keeps her wild hair out of her…

Flat Iron Waves

Hey! It’s been so long since I’ve posted a hair tutorial. Probably because I wear my hair in a pony tail 99% of the time these days. Last week I actually did my hair (for a special occasion, obvs), and I posted this picture of it: The caption said, “I made this: waves with a…

Dealing With Toddler Curls

Tons of people ask me how I deal with Annie’s curly hair. When Maddie, and then Annie, grew curls, I had no idea what to do. I have straight hair, and while it can turn into a rat’s nest when I’m sick or need a trim, it’s nothing compared to the dread locks Annabel used…

Simple Bun With A Spin Pin

I am obsessed with Spin Pins. They are these awesome hair pins that spin into your hair, locking your coif in place. When they first came out, I couldn’t find them anywhere, but now they are regularly stocked at my drug store and Target. A few of you love them too, because I’ve received several…

The All-Up Braided Headband

This is one of the easiest styles to do, and it’s PERFECT for the summer when you just do not want to deal with your hair. I put my hair in this braided headband, and I don’t think about it again until I go to sleep. I’ve even swam in it! You need: two hair…

DIY Feather Hair Extensions

At my hair salon, there is always a steady stream of people coming in to have feather extensions attached to their hair. I think they look cool, but the price tag can be hefty – upwards of $20-$40, depending on how many feathers, placements, etc. That is crazy talk! So I figured out how to…

Beachy Waves

In the summer, I avoid blow-drying my hair as much as possible. My go-to style is usually some sort of bun on the top of my head, but if I sport that look too many days in a row my husband will say, “you’re wearing your hair like that AGAIN?” Eye roll. So I bust…
