My Favorite Things

Welcome to the first ever My Favorite Things Linky Party! I am so excited to get this started! For those of you who didn't read the introduction you can see it here. Now that I have that out of the way, let's get started!

This month I would like to share my favorite hairspray with you. I was hesitant to make this my first topic, simply because I am not a beauty blog, but I just HAD to!

There are some beauty products that I am super loyal to. One of them is hairspray. I have used Kenra Volume 25 spray for the longest time and it just works the best! Styling my hair was a pain in the booty before I stumbled upon this gem! But believe it or not I found something better than Kenra Volume 25.


Well, I don't know if I would call it better. It is the same exact thing, just cheaper! I was at Sally's one day buying a new straightener (the one I had for years finally broke :( ) and after picking out a new one I was roaming around the store. While glancing at the hairspray section, a bottle of Generic Value Products hairspray caught my eye (or was Heaven shining down on the bottle? I get confused)! Anyway, ;) I noticed the price was cheaper, it appeared to have the same ingredients, and it smelled just like the real stuff. Since Sally Beauty has a really great return policy I decided to buy a bottle and try it out.

I can honestly say the Generic brand works just like Kenra Volume 25. My hair stays curly all day, my style doesn't melt with the heat or humidity, and it sprays on amazingly! A plus with this brand of hairspray is it smells really good. Believe me I have tried a lot of hairsprays and some of them smell nasty! Aqua Net anyone? Ewe, I'm pretty sure most things smell better than Aqua Net. You really should give this product a try though! You can find Generic Value Products Volumizing Spray (Compare to: Kenra Volume Spray) at a Sally Beauty store or on their website. This hairspray is only $7.99 for a 10 ounce bottle with your beauty club card or $8.99 without.

Hair Tutorials

Happy Wednesday everyone! This week I am taking the liberty to share some amazing hair tutorials form my Pinterest page. You will notice almost all of them are from The Small Things Blog. I LOVE this blog!! Kate's tutorials are so easy to follow and very thorough. I was pretty much hair stupid before I stumbled upon her blog. You will also notice I also am sharing a lot of braided hair tutorials. Here's why.

About a year ago I decided to bob my hair... Never again. It was cute but I hated that there was really only one style I could wear it. My hair is finally getting long again (yay!) so I can play around with different styles. I must say I am loving being able to create braids and buns! Problem is I have to learn all the braids!! So far I have french braiding my bangs down pretty well, but now I need to learn the others. Thankfully I have my awesome Pinterest Hair Board to teach me! :)

I hope you enjoy these pins and learn as much as I did! Be sure to check out my Pinterest Hair Board for more hair tutorials!
