Air Dry Adventures!

May 25th, 2022 by Karen 7 Comments

There’s something so inspiring about a fresh chop! Now that my hair is shorter and has more shape, I’m excited to do stuff to it again. (It’s been a while!)

On that note, I’m trying some new things. I’m on a quest to find products that help my mane look presentable after air drying.

  • R+Co Sun Catcher Power C Boosting Leave-In Conditioner: A leave-in conditioner that adds mega moisture without weighing strands down. You can use it on wet and dry hair! I’m on a mission to boost volume, which is why I wanted to try it.
  • R+Co Zig Zag Root Teasing + Texture Spray: A lightly tinted texturizing spray that lifts roots. You can also use it on the mid-shaft and ends for lift, shape and hold.
  • R+Co Sail Soft Wave Spray: A lightweight spray that encourages soft, natural looking waves. You spray it on wet hair before air drying or using heat tools!
  • dpHue ACV Daily Scalp Serum: An oil-free serum that’s supposed to balance and hydrate the scalp while also encouraging hair growth.
  • Urban Decay Naked Half Baked Palette: A travel palette of powder shadows inspired by the iconic shade Half Baked. I know this isn’t hair related, but I’m wearing it today so I figured it deserved a shout out, too!

Building those happiness muscles, day 10

Welcome to hump day, friend. How is it Wednesday already?

OK, so the two things that I’m grateful for today:

  1. Watching my daughter dance. She’s been rond de jambe-ing since she was in my tummy! It’s so fun to watch her grow as she dances.
  2. Hair claw clips. Seriously, so great when it’s hot outside!

What are you grateful for today?

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    I am grateful for looking out and seeing only blue sky when the phone was screaming at me about an “extreme tornado alert”. It went north of us, a wimpy Zero on the EF scale, and probably knocked over a couple of garbage cans (or as we call them: “Racoon Bento Boxes”.)

    Hair clips were great for me today too because my hair was a MESS. I’m working on finding the right products for my hair too – my hair is wavy but very fine so heavy products aren’t great for it. Also I definitely wash my hair more than most people LOL.

    I could not LIVE without hair claw clips all year round!

    That zig zag root teasing spray sounds good.

    I love Urban Decay – I have their Naked Basics 2 palette.

    The link for the Urban Decay palette goes to the wrong item.

    I am liking the Olaplex No 9 for air drying, as it reduces Frizz, but as your hair is thick and not bleached, it might not be the right thing for you.

    Your hair looks great! I have no advice for you since our hair is so different. I do really like Pureology’s leave in spray. It’s too heavy to use regularly in my hair, so it might be good for yours. It has sun and heat protection and a little spray goes a LONG way (at least on my hair). 🙂

    I am grateful it’s the Friday before a long weekend! And that my boys are both home for the summer.

    I’m grateful I remembered to take a look at what you’ve posted because I had no idea Urban Decay came out with more mini palettes, which I love. I don’t see them listed on Sephora, so will go hunting for it somewhere else. Gosh I haven’t bought a shadow since before all the shelter in place began.
