Braided Bun Updo Tutorial

-
 
This hair style is nice and simple once you break it down. All you need it a clear elastic, comb, a few bobby pins and your favourite hairspray!
First add a bit of teasing through out your crown, if you like more volume or height feel free to do more teasing than what I have done in the video.
Make a parting from the top of your head down to the top of your ear clipping forward that section of hair. Do the same on the other side.
Now pull back the crown section of your hair, pushing it up slightly and pinning into place. Grab a small section of hair and bring it across the middle section that you have just pinned. Do the same on the other side.
Grabbing all of the hair that left down, make it into a loose braid securing it with a clear elastic. Pancake (pull the braid sections out a bit) the braid to make it wider and more full. Roll the braid up toward your head making it into a bun, securing it with bobby pins,
Curl the front sections of hair that you had pinned forward in the beginning, curling away from the face. I used a 1 inch curling wand, but you can use a curling iron as well. Take a these sections and bring back and pin them in a cross-cross at the back just above the bun. I like to leave a few pieces out around my face for a softer look, this is up to your personal preference.

Tips for Easy Summer Beach Waves

Summer is here and so is the heat! This summer I plan on giving my hair a bit of a break from the hot tools. With the summer heat I don't feel like sitting there to blow dry and flat iron my hair because..well..its just to hot! An easy solution? Beach waves! I also have some natural waves & curl in my hair so fighting the humidity in the summer time is no fun! I give  myself a hair masque treatment once a week to keep my hair hydrated. This is key when letting your hair go more natural because dry hair become frizzy.  I use a wide tooth comb in the shower, when I have the hair masque or conditioner in my hair I gently comb starting at the bottom working my way to the roots. This also will ensure that the product is being distributed evenly through out your hair. Once out of the shower I use a microfiber towel to absorb some of  the water. Next I scrunch in MONATs Frizz Fix Primer to help with any frizz and its great for when it is humid outside! Next I use a Leave- in

Why I Decided To Start My Shampoo Buisness

I wanted to write this blog post to share how I got started with my shampoo business.  As a hairstylist my income is solely made when a client is physically sitting in my chair. It’s reliant on my clients showing up, as well as myself!  As a mom it’s always been a struggle with putting in more hours in the salon to keep up or being present for my kids. I was looking for flexibility so I could be more available for my kids, especially now that they are getting involved with different activities, while still bringing in a steady source of income.  After hearing about these products, I decided to try them out and completely loved my results! That’s when I knew I had to be apart of this company & share them with my clients.  I started to learn everything I could about the products & company. I started seeing what this could do for my family. I could gain flexibility & time freedom while taking a step back in the salon when my kids needed me too, all while still bringing in som
