Then she has a blog dedicated to hair and how-to tutorials and questions for hair dressers. And raise your hand if you're that person who has their hair done, it looks amazing but you can never, NEVER, replicate it again! That's totally me.
In fact this last time in the styling chair, I was shown how to do wavy hair with a flat iron. Its not that I've never heard of such a feat before, my little sister went to hair school, I've seen tutorials, it's just I've never dared to try it myself.
Luckily the day after I chopped my hair off, (my cut and inspiration is here. Except my hair is blond - only difference. Oh, and I curled my hair tighter than that today.) I went out of town and had a few days off - therefore I had some time to mess around with it. The first day it took me almost an hour and a half...and I still cracked out a curling iron. The second day I succeeded with the exception of a few wonky hairs that wouldn't stay tucked under and wouldn't obey the flat iron (OK...and eventually the curling iron too.) The third day was on the right track. I have it down to where it takes about 20 minutes to curl my entire head. And honestly it probably wouldn't take so long except I'm still a wimp and I don't want to recreate any wonky or kinky curls again. (It was real bad.)
Anyway, even if I feel have the whole flat iron curl technique down, I still can't seem to get the loose wave right. (See Scarlett again.) I STILL struggle with replicating the stylist. I even keep a picture on my phone for reference, but I can't do it. It always ends up a weird wonky mess.
Enter...Reagan.
