Soft Curls


Want to get these curls? Here is how you do it!
Items used:

  • 2 inch curling iron
  • CHI heat protecting spray
  • Hair spray 
  • (I also had to use a blowdryer and flat iron for my bangs)
Start off with hair that was not just washed. Wash your hair the day before your curl. (Hair that is a little greasy helps to hold the curls for a longer period of time)
Heat up your curling iron. While its heating up, spray all of your hair with heat protectant. 
When the iron is heated separate your hair into 2-3 sections and begin at the bottom curling about 1-2 inches of hair at a time depending ow tight or lose your want your curls to look. After finishing each layer, spray some hair spray on the curls.
What I do to loosen them up a bit is stand and put my head upside down and i shake out my hair. After that i apply hair spray and thats it! 
DO NOT BRUSH OUT. Brushing out will create waves of hair and not curls.

Ending Split Ends!

Trouble with split ends? The only way to get rid of your split ends is to get a hair cut BUT there are some steps you can take so that you can prevent more split ends in the future.
My personal routine is to use hair masks. At least three times a week I apply a coat of coconut oil to my hair and leave it on for about 2 hours. The longer you leave it on the better your results will be. I sometimes even sleep with it and wash it out in the morning. There are some alternatives though. I like to go on Pinterest and look up natural hair mask recipes but you can also go to any beauty store and buy pre made packages.
More helpful tips:
1.Try not to use so much heat on your hair but if you must, don't forget to use a heat protecting spray!
2.When brushing your hair, use a wide toothed comb to avoid ripping your hair.
3. While showering, apply conditioner to the tips of your hair and leave it on for 5 minutes before rinsing. This will also help with split ends.

Winged Liner

Want the perfect wing? Here is your how to guide!
Step one: Make a straight line going from the end of your eye. Make it at an angle that follows the natural shape of your eye.
Step two: Connect another line to that one and connect it to your eyelid making a triangle.
Step three: Connect one last line to the second line you made and draw it to the point where your eyelashes end.
Step 4: Fill in the lines and you now have the perfect winged liner!

P.S. For a more classy look, go for matte eyeliner gel.
