Hair Tutorial

10 Sep 2019 Beauty, Style

Life & Style blogger, Liz Joy, shares a quick and easy hair tutorial. Sharing all the tools and products she uses for an everyday look.

no. 1 T3 Whirl Trio | no. 2 T3 Featherweight Luxe 2i Hair Dryer with Brush |

no. 3 T3 Paddle Brush | no. 4 Argan Oil and Green Tea Powered Styling Foam

 

Hello from the West Coast!  This morning while I was adjusting to the time change (hello 4:30am wake up!) I thought I would take advantage of the quiet morning and share a quick hair tutorial.  For a few years now these tools have been my go-to for an easy beach wave/curl.

Tools

For every day waves I use the 1-inch barrel from the Whirl Trio.

I will usually blow dry with the round brush, then use the paddle brush to help gently brush out my curls after I am done (and they have cooled a bit) to give it a softer look.   My blow dryer and round brush are on sale today!!  Such a great deal to get both the blow dryer and round brush for only $99.90!  It usually retails at $250.

 

Before I start I will spray a heat protectant all over (I am so sad I forgot to pack it on this trip).  I am loving this Argan Oil and Green Tea Powered Styling Foam from Navy Hair care.  You can also get 30% off right now with my code “JOY”.

TIPS

*Definitely check out my tutorial on stories today for a full view of my simple technique.

  • First, pull the crown of your hair up in a pony tail to keep it out of the way while you start curling the bottom pieces.
  • Next, start to curl the pieces that are down.
  • Take little pieces, wrap the hair around the wand move it around a little bit pull the wand up and let it fall then pull the ends gently.
  • I recommend taking smaller portions of hair to make sure all the hairs curl.  If you take too big of a chunk you risk not getting a full curl.
  • Leave about an inch of the ends out (i.e. don’t curl those) it keeps the length, prevents damaging your ends and I personally like the look as it’s more of a beachy wave then a tight curl.
  • Alternate between curling away from your face and towards your face for volume and again a more beachy look.
  • Start the curl about half way down away from your head. I like having a straight top (just personal preference) and then the curls are just loose at the bottom.
  • Then I take the top part down and start the same process with that section.
  • To finish it off, I will sometimes take blow dryer to smooth out any weird ends or kinks.

Pretty quick and easy!  I hope you found this hair tutorial helpful and definitely grab any products you need today while they are at these great prices!  I also shared another post on the blog today rounding up August top sellers which you can check out here.

Lets Be Social

We’re currently in Phase 1 of our Costa Rican ad We’re currently in Phase 1 of our Costa Rican adventure. This is the two week decompression period where we train our bodies and minds to slow down (this is more for me than anyone else), and let me tell you, I’m lapping it up.  We’re spending all day outside at the beach, going to bed early, eating lots of fresh fruit and healthy foods, swimming in the ocean, I’m working out and meditating in the mornings, and having fun together. For someone who is usually always in high gear, this part is my gift to myself 🐚 

We are staying at a beautiful place in papagayo with @exclusiveresorts and it feels very luxurious and restorative. 

The kids are already thriving. Being together 24/7 comes with its arguments and fights but they are learning how to just be with each other and with their crazy little brother. They’re helping a lot with him, learning a little Spanish, surfing, writing in their journals, and meeting kids from all over the world who are staying here as well. 

I’m letting us get pampered for this phase, and it feels really good. 

Thanks for coming along, I hope your year is off to an amazing start! Is there anything specific you’d like me to share about while we’re in this phase? I was thinking about sharing my morning workouts and meditations, but let me know!
Recently, I downloaded the Melissa Wood health app Recently, I downloaded the Melissa Wood health app @melissawoodtepperberg @melissawoodhealth and so far I’m loving the workouts. I try and do one every morning. They’re super quick so sometimes I do two. I like that they are gentle but hard. They incorporate a lots of yoga, pilates, breathing, stretching, balancing and all that good stuff. You can see from the videos I’m pretty shaky in the first couple clips, that balance is tough but I’m building up my strength, I can feel it 💪🏻
