I have never tried a collagen beauty product up to this point, but as I said in my instagram post the other day, if you spent your childhood collecting beanie babies, it’s probably time to start thinking about some anti-aging products for your skin! A few months ago I started noticing that my skin was […]

Pull-Through Pigtail Braids for Winter
Happy first official day of winter and almost holiday weekend! Is anyone else blown away that we’re already at the end of the year? I feel like I just wrote my 2017 recap a couple of months ago but it’s somehow been a full year! I wanted to show this fun hairstyle for when it’s […]
Playing with Rose Gold Hair
Whoever said blondes have more fun clearly didn’t try rose gold hair because I had way more fun with rose gold hair than should have been allowed! I’ve always wanted to dye my hair pink but having had bad luck trying to spice up my hair color in the past, I was pretty hesitant. Let’s […]
How to Care for your Little Girl’s Long Hair
So many little girls love to have long hair or love the idea of long hair, but as a mom I now it is no easy task to keep that hair maintained! Kids play hard, get dirty, sweat (a lot!), and find all sorts of random ways they can tangle their hair. Especially with long […]
Braid Round Up: Braids I’ve Worn Lately
I was going through all of my photos and found so many of random braids that I haven’t posted, or that I’ve only posted on social media, that I decided I would do a post dedicated to just photos of some of the braids I’ve worn lately! I’m calling it a braid round up, because […]
How to use a Sarong as a Head Scarf
I remember watching a tutorial someone posted about how they tie their head scarf and just thinking…. HOW? I always get single strands of hair caught in the knot and then it pulls and hurts, or I get it so tight my brain feels like it’s bursting, or it is too loose and comes off […]
Gypsy Fortune Teller Makeup
Somehow it has already made its way to HALLOWEEN this year, what??? I did rag curls and thought while my hair was big enough to have it’s own gravitational pull anyway, I might as well take advantage of the look and turn it into a costume. I have been wanting to do a gypsy fortune […]
How to Mix Messy Braids to make a Nordic Inspired Look
If you follow me on instagram you know I love my vikings and for reals, 75% of the reason is because of THE HAIR. Seriously Lagertha’s braids are always so spot on, I am usually drooling or crying haha. When I created this look I was actually going for something completely different but sometimes when […]
Celebrating Dia De Los Muertos with a New Makeup Look
I know it’s not quite time to be doing Dia de los Muertos makeup just yet, but with having a mixed race family something that has always been really important to me is that my children know and celebrate their culture and traditions. As my daughters are part Hispanic, we have been celebrating Hispanic Heritage […]
How to Make Pretty Sunflower Hair for Fall
The thing I love most about sunflowers is how resilient they are. Sunflowers are technically weeds, something that usually has a negative connotation in the plant world. But despite the negative rap weeds get sunflowers bloom brightly against it, often in tangles in small fields or crevices along the side of the road in rough […]
