LAZY GIRL GUIDE: MORE HAIR STUFF

okay, hello, lovelies! I know Valentine's Day is coming up and as self-proclaimed lazy girls, we all know we don't have the time or want to expend the effort to actually curl/straighten our hair. These are a few handy hairstyles for everyday activities or Valentine's Day dates or whatever. Here we go!

1. knot ponytail (less than 1 minute)

  • salt spray for beach hair (optional)
  • divide hair in half
  • tie hair into a knot 
  • clear elastic to tie it together
2. hair bow mini (2 minutes)
  • sea salt spray
  • take a small portion of hair from each side
  • tie into a bow 
  • secure with bobby pins
3. braided bun (2 minutes)
  • make a ponytail
  • braid down and tie with elastic
  • wrap around first elastic 
  • pin with bobby pins 
4. side french braid (1 min)
  • start at one side (i usually pick right) 
  • french braid like normal 
  • keep adding hair until you end up on opposite shoulder from where you started
5. au naturale (no time) 
  • just leave
  • smile
Okay, those are my quick hairstyles for this post of lazy girl guide! Hope you guys enjoy!

LAZY GIRL GUIDE TO: EVERY DAY HAIRSTYLES

Hello! I know it's been a while, but alas the torturous finals week just passed. And yes, my school is on trimesters, not semesters, therefore explaining the strange date of finals week. Anyways, I thought I would share some every day hairstyles for lazy girls, but still want to look good. I typically spend about three minutes on my hair due to these hairstyles.

1. Messy Ponytail (~1 minute or less)

  • spray some sea salt spray (I use NYM Beach Babe Spray) into your hair and scrunch
  • optional: texturizing paste (FX paste works well) for additional texture
  • grab a ponytail holder and tie your hair into a loose ponytail
  • tighten the ponytail and then when I want my hair to look a little messier, I either have a bathroom dance party or jump up and down a few times to get that bedhead, natural look. 

2. Messy Bun (~2 minutes)
  • sea salt spray and texturizing paste again
  • gather all of your hair and twist it until it becomes a bun
  • bobby pin it and voila
3. Half Up, Half Down (~1 minute)
  • sea salt and paste once again
  • then scrunch extra 
  • roughly take one inch sections from each side 
  • pin them together in the back where they intersect 

4. Messy Pinned Back Updo (~3 minutes)
  • sea salt, paste, scrunch
  • pin random pieces of hair back roughly
  • add a nice statement pin or ribbon



This website (http://www.sunandmooncraftkits.com/filigree-hair-barrettes.html) has super cute barettes and hair clips and they're all for a really affordable price! I'm not sponsored to say this, I just found their website and it looks really nice. 


Well, that's all I've got! I usually repeat these hairstyles basically every day during school because I just don't apply heat to my hair ever. However, if you do use salt spray and paste very often, it will dry your hair out so I recommend a regular mask or leave-in conditioner like the Macadamia brand. It smells really good and it can be found at most salons and also at some TJMaxx stores. Good luck and see you next time!

OOTD: Spring Flirt

Hi my flowers! Long time no see! So today I've got a ootd for you guys and this is one of my favorite spring ensembles! So let's get started.

So what I wore:
A floral sundress from TJMaxx underneath everything.
A sheer blouse with black lining, also TJMaxx.
A woven skinny brown belt from Forever 21.
Steve Madden Taxxi oxfords.
Gold Stud earrings by Capelli.
Betsey Johnson panda necklace.
BCBG Sweetheart bracelet and my own watch.

I got a lot of compliments on this today! It's super cute and there's so many variations to go with this. Oh, I also just curled my hair and then sprayed the NYM beach babe through it. Okay, so now you can all see the pictures and my narcissistic selfies. Oh my gosh, I almost forgot but shout out to all my Wanelo and twitter followers that read my blog. Kisses and hugs to you all for being so great and supportive. For the future, you can probably expect a raving rant about The Great Gatsby. I love love love Leonardo DiCaprio and already the trailers and the soundtrack is fantastic, hands-down. I'm really excited to see how it'll go, and I hope it meets my expectations! Alrighty it's bed time for me! XOXO have a wonderful week beautifuls! DFTBA.
