CUBE LIFE STYLE / 13

Pin It Now!



Hey guys! 
I am at my 6 month mark in my hair journey (which it definitely is!) 
I thought I'd share my recent go to do. 
I've been busy keeping up with holiday demands and haven't had much time to
primp like I normally do so I have resorted to styles that require little prep time or 
that I can go to sleep in.
I love the look of beachy hair, but since we're in the colder months and I'm on 
the east coast, visiting a beach any time soon is not likely. 
But that's not going to keep me from rocking my favorite summer style.


 1. Start with 2 side french braids. I typically tuck mine in so there isn't a wonky bend at the ends. 
2. Release the pinned braids a la Pippy style.
3. Begin un-braiding one side slowly. Rushing causes frizz.
4. Repeat on the other side.
5. Give your roots a good finger fluff and separate the large sections of waves. 
6. Grab a few bobbi pins or clips and you're set!!! 

Simple Right! 
Easy Beachy waves without the beach or heat! 

** The scarf used is optional and in my case used to tame the frizz at the root.

Hey there!
So, I am transitioning.
For those of you that aren’t familiar with this term, it basically means that I am growing the chemical relaxer out of my hair. This tends to be a very insecure and frustrating time for women, from a styling perspective, because you are working with 2 different textures of hair. To alter my new normal frizzies and curls, I have I decided to try something that givens an instant transformation and cleans up my look a little. 

1. Start out with slightly poofed hair.  If you have straight hair, give the under layers a little backcomb to create some texture and volume.

2. Grab an elastics headwrap. I prefer to use a neutral color that is close to my hair color. 
** Goody’s Doublewear Headwraps would work perfectly too to add a little shine to your bob

3.Take a hair color ponytail elastic. Secure the ends of your hair into a mini bun. Tuck this into the base of the elastic headwrap. You should now have nice neat bob.

4.With some bobby pins, you can pin back any stray strands, but a few tendrils falling wont hurt.

And there you have it!! Going from long to short hair, has never been this easy, huh?
