M’ladies? You asked. I listened. And partially because hair is kinda a big dill in my book. Like, it’s slightly embarrassing how special hair is to me. If asked the question… Which would you rather have – flawless makeup or hair? Hands down I’d say hair EVERY TIME! She’s kinda my lifeline.
So at this moment, I don’t want to bombard you with the whole motherload of haircare.
If I did, you might never want to read another beauty post EVER AGAIN! And lets be honest… that’d be tragic. For us BOTH!
Not to worry, friendlies. The dry shampoo regimen… How to train your locks to stay clean for almost a week {don’t EVEN turn up your nose. you can still wash your bod}… and more on styling will be coming your way. And I mean SOONER than LATER. It’s quite mean to keep all of this 411 to myself. But all in due time, my pretties.

Thank you, Thank you for your secrets. I have got to try that dry shampoo and more!
You’re so cute! Haha… Yes, the dry shampoo will be your new found love! I keep her close at all times.
Chelsey and Michelle showed me your site. SUPER cute stuff. Michelle said you are trying to get out there so I’ll share the love. Although I was tempted to keep it to myself:) Good luck.
Ashley! So good to get in touch with you again! Glad you’re liking what you see. And yes, your support/spreading the love is GREATLY appreciated! Hope all is well with your darling family! <3
i have to try the dry shampoo! especially since i’ve become a mom, it’s just sometimes impossible to wash your hair everyday! your hair always looks so cute too! thanks for the tips! 🙂
Dry shampoo is a blessing in a can! Could bear my testimony about it – it’s that wonderful. Go getcha some at Sally’s. You’ll be a changed mommy!! Let me know how you like it! 🙂
Thanks for sharing. I love when others achieve that piece-y look at the ends of their hair; mine is always frizzing up and dry-ish. But I’ve never been able to find a product that works (to be fair, I haven’t really looked too much and I’m not willing or able to spend much on hair product). I think I’ll definitely spring for the Bumble and Bumble surf spray though – I’ve heard great things. Does the Moroccan oil help with that piece-y type look?
Mary, I use the moroccan oil to help nourish my ends & keep them hydrated & smooth. I apply it wet for that reason. However, if you apply it once dried… it does help create some definition/piece-y look you’re talking about. Be careful though bc too much will make your hair greasy. For more what you’re talking about… to achieve defined textured pieces I’d recommend a pomade or hair wax. It’ll create definition that holds.
Where do you find the Bumble & Bumble Surf Spray? I saw it in a magazine last year and have been looking all over for it. I love the soft waves look.
Britt! You can order it directly from Bumble & Bumble. If you click the link listed in the post it’ll take you right to the ordering page. Or many salons carry it as well. You just have to call and check! I really like it for added volume at my roots. It’s also great for achieving the “messy” beach waves.
Thanks for sharing this- you have perfect hair! I’ll be looking forward to your future posts about this because I am a lost cause when it comes to styling my hair! It’s always so frizzy and dry and most days I contemplate shaving my head bald.
Sis! I love this site. I’m on it almost everday checking in! I tell all the wives here about it. I’m going out and buying that dry shampoo ASAP. Seriously I can’t tell ya how much I love your site. And I know I’m not the only one. Keep it comin!
Love you guys!!

First of all, I love your site! It is great and such an empowering thing for women of all ages to see! Thank you for all of your great tips and tricks!!! I don’t know if you ever take requests but if you do, could you do a post on your skin care routine and maybe a makeup look for new moms? (your skin and makeup always look fabulous!!) I am a month away from having my first baby and I know it’s going to get crazy! So any advise helps!! Thanks so much and keep up the amazing work!!
Uh, Mackenzie? You’re making happy tears squeeze out! How kind are you? Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts/requests! I’ll add skincare/makeup regimen to my upcoming posts list! When are you due? SO exciting!!! xo
I’m due June 26th! Thanks for the great eye makeup tutorial!! I will for sure be trying it!! I love the 24/7 eye liner by urban decay!! they work amazingly!!
Dry shampoo is hands-down THE best invention EVER!!! I’d even put it above the light bulb…but maybe that’s just me…
Hi!!!
I’m a newbie and love your site!! Would you mind doing a quick post on your straight hair routine? Your hair is beautiful!! Congratulations on the upcoming baby, I have a 1 yr old and now truly understand what a blessing it is to be a mother!!
Thanks!
Hi, just found your blog and love it! Just wondering if you have any good recommendations on a good product to tame frizz. Not sure if you have to deal with that at all but I’ve been looking for a good product. And also what does the surf spray and morroccan oil do for your hair?
Do you use the Morroccan oil on dry hair? How much do you use? This looks like a life saver for long hair.
Have you tried Aquage Lifting Foam? (kinda sounds like something from Willy Wonka!) Wondered what you thought of that product…also, what kind of flat iron do you use? The GHD ones are soooo expensive. Love your blog and thank you so much for all your tips and tricks!!!

You are adorable! I think this is my new favorite blog. So excited to try all of your hair tips!
Hey! I love your hair advice! I have such lifeless hair usually and I used your hair techniques and viola! Beautimuss!! But I cant find the exact XXL Thickening mousse you have here. Have they renamed it?
Hi I found you on Pinterest and I love your blog! We seem to have similar tastes and styles! Could you possibly do a tutorial on the B&B Surf Spray? I bought it a while ago and I still have no idea how to use it!
I want to thank you for blogging! I’ve recently become a new mom and feel like I need to change who I am with my looks that are great and easy! And I found this site and hope to try some of the products you put up!
Do you use Scalp Benefits because you have scalp “issues” or just because you like what it does for your hair/scalp?
I just like what it does for my hair 🙂
I just found your site. You have beautiful hair. Do you still use these products or have you tried some new products since then? What about shampoo and conditioner?
Any tips on what to do with clean hair if you go to sleep on it clean and wet and want to use styling products the next morning? I don’t know what styling products to use on dry hair.
Do you use the bumble spray and the mouse when curling your hair with your Jose wand??
I like to use the bumble spray before blow or air drying, follow up with the wand (no mousse), and finish with hairspray. 🙂
