Ginger Locks

Hello all my lovelies! Sorry for the lack of posting, life just seems to be a tad crazy at the moment. So I've been a busy bee working everything out and starting new chapters in my life :)

Today I wanted to do a post on all the hair products that I absolutely adore. I get asked alot about my hair and what I use in it. But, by far the question that I get asked the most is, "Is that your natural hair color?"

Yes, yes it is kidlets. #gingerforlife

My hair, I would classify, as a darker strawberry blonde. It used to be a lot more vibrat when I was younger and as I aged the pigment has lightened up. I have blonde, brown, auburn and red strands in my hair, which is probably why I get asked if it is natural. In the summer it lightens alot, and the blonde will stick out. Not to mention that I have actual thick sections of my hair that are straight blonde.

In texture, my hair is thick and mildly frizzy with a natural beachy wave. I do straighten it about 98% of the time just because it is more manageable this way.

As per products, I've tried many on the market but these would have to be what really keep my hair soft and manageable.

SHAMPOO/CONDITIONER

Now I am always changing my shampoo and conditioner just because my hair tends to get used to these kind of products quickly. At the moment I'm using the Redken All Soft Shampoo/Conditioner. This stuff makes my hair unbelievably soft, even though I'm getting to the end of these bottles it doesn't seem that my hair is getting used to the formula.

DEEP CONDITIONING

For deep conditioners I rotate between Macadamia Deep Repair Mask, and the Aveda Dry Remedy. Both of these are phemonal and do the job. I do prefer the Macadamia one a tad bit better, because not only is it more affordable, but I feel that it makes my hair stay soft and moisturized for the few days between washes. I enjoy that both these products are extremely thick in consistency and you can feel the difference in the texture of your hair right as you wash them out.

VIDEO: Bronzed Goddess Look

Now, by all means I am in no way a goddess. However I couldn't think of a different title, since goddess is just what came to mind with this look.

I took a lot of time editing, while trying out some new techniques. Im still in the process of learning iMovie, but its coming along!

I'm pretty stoked on this video, and hope you guys enjoy it!

Grow Long Healthy Hair

Hello lovelies, 

Its my day off and extremely gloomy and rainy out.. of course thats how it always works right? I should be studying for my last two final exams, but at this point studying is not in my interest at all. Does anyone else have that problem, the second you know you need to study you become immersed with thoughts of anything else to do. Like seriously, I could do the recycling and convince myself it'll be more enjoyable than reading my text book. However, I must try and motivate myself. 

But first.... 

Today's post I decided to focus on hair care and how to grow those luscious locks that we all dream of. Many of us complain that our hair "stops" growing, or something like that. But don't be fooled, hair just cannot stop growing for no reason..

Heres some steps that you need to incorporate (if you have not already) into your hair care routine. By doing these steps, your hair will thank you by growing longer and healthier. I have tried all of these steps myself and can safely say that my hair has been growing longer, faster.

5 Things You Should Not Forget To Do!

Hello all my lovelies,

So I was thinking today, about how easy it is to get caught up in life, and forget some of the beauty faux pas that we all happen to forget on a day to day basis. But really, who has time to clean this and do that properally. We all love shortcuts, and though it may not be laziness, trying to finish a paper for school, or a project for work seems a bit more important than say cleaning your eyelash curler. Am I right or what? So I had a look around and thought about all the beauty mishaps that I have caught myself, or others doing and compiled this little reminding compilation.

So I know that we are all guilty of doing this makeup mishaps, but here are some that we really should not forget!

Tips for Spring 2014!!

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

Spring has finally come here in British Columbia. Honestly, I cannot believe how long it took this year, typically its extremely warm by March! But its finally here, and I am welcoming it with open arms!

I came up with some Spring Resolutions! We have made it through winter, where our skin is begging for hydration in the dry weather! Now its time to look how our skin handles in warmer, weather. For myself, I know my skin is ever changing. While in winter, my skin is dryer than the Sahara desert, when we transfer to Spring/Summer I see a slight increase in hydration. I can usually quit the ultra thick moisturizers around this time, and opt for something that is more lightweight, but still for dry skin. 

So here it is, a little compilation of Spring Resolutions that you may want to consider!

Redhead Makeup Tips

Hello all!

So I figured for my first post, I would do something pretty close to heart. I, myself being a redhead, find it quite difficult to find tutorials, or even tips for makeup for myself. Now I know that there are probably many other redheads that are guided by certain misconceptions about what they can and cannot do makeup wise. So I wanted to help some of my fellow redheads (and others who want to learn) about some tips for us ginger girls. So here we go!
