attn: blow dryers

if you love blow drying your hair every day you might be missing a step. you've got the basics, towel dry, comb with a wide tooth comb, apply products and blow. you might think you're done but take a second and check your blow dryer. maintaining your tools will benefit you in the long run and save you from having to go buy a whole new dryer. 

so check out the vent in the back of your dryer. different styles of dryers have it assembled differently, mostly located in the back with a cover. make sure you remove the cover carefully and check out all the lint. i was greeted by this smiling face the other day..

just simply wipe out all the lint, just like you would a dryer screen.

when you're done you should be able to see the fans. you'll be very surprised how much faster your drying time will be. and your blow dryer will live a nice long happy life.

happy blowing!

the big bang theory

lately i've been very drawn to bangs. there's so many different ways to wear them and now that its not mega hot out they don't stick to your forehead. always frustrating in the summer. so its definitely time to play with some fringe! great look to try right now is a very long bang to the eyelashes. they're dramatic when straight and if you decide to curl and give them some bend they'll still be able to drape beautifully.

ok so this is a shot of my new salon and my best friends beautiful hair. i'm addicted to curling. this is the result of using a one inch iron and wrapping the hair around the barrel and letting it relax. so many different ways. so many different irons. love it.

have fun with your hair!
