Hello loves! 

I recently found some new hair products all under $30 at Walmart and after trying them out, I had to share them with you guys! They’re the “Wet2Style” products from Remington! 

I style my hair wet 100% of the time! My hair doesn’t air dry nicely, so I always blow dry it! If I don’t, it doesn’t look/style right! (I know I’m not alone in this!) And when I style my hair, I like to leave it slightly damp to hold the curl in better! I feel like it sets my look! (My hair stylist does this every time I have my hair done and it lasts for days, so I picked up on the trick!) 

So, when I found these Wet2Style products at Walmart it sounded like they were made for the way I do my hair! I had to try them! This hair dryer, straightener, and curling iron were MADE for using & styling on damp hair! (Which is what I already do, but using these products specifically created for it makes it safer and healthier for my hair!) A DREAM!

The hair dyer dried my hair incredibly fast which I NEED as a mom! (And let’s face it, around the holidays, we’re extra crammed with time!) The straightener works wonderfully, and the curling iron does as well! All the products are ceramic, helping protect against heat damage and getting rid of unwanted frizz! 

These Remington hair tools remove water safely & quickly as you style, and I feel like they work! I was able to finish my hair 20 minutes faster than my normal time, and my hair was as healthy as ever after styling! No damage! My hair also held up beautifully throughout the day! 

If you’re looking to try out some new hair products, and most importantly keep your hair healthy + save some time, you have to try these Wet2Style products out from Walmart!

Once I became a mom to Chloé, catching some me time became scarce! (I don’t even have time to go to the bathroom somedays!) I’ve often felt gross and just dirty from changing diapers all day, bring spit up on, and not having the time to hop into the shower! 

Lucky for me though, I just found a new dry shampoo + dry conditioner and it’s unreal! It’s the new Pantene Waterless Collection that includes the Never Tell Dry Shampoo Spray and theMist Behaving Dry Conditioner Mist! It helps me look, smell, feel clean in just a matter of seconds! (And I can go 7-8 days without washing my hair which is a HUGE time saver!) 

When my hair is greasy and needs a wash, I grab my Pantene Never Tell Dry Shampoo, lift up my hair -section by section - and spray the dry shampoo directly into my roots (or wherever my hair is in need of refreshment most)! This Never Tell Dry Shampoo Spray is one of the only dry shampoos I’ve tried that doesn’t leave the white residue in your hair, which is AMAZING! And then, I will massage it into my scalp for about 8 seconds! (Just to disperse the productfully at my roots!) The Pantene Never Tell Dry Shampoo Spray has Pro-Vitamin B5 and wild mint that gives your hair a fresh start by absorbing dirt and oil. 

After I’ve applied the Pantene Never Tell Dry Shampoo Spray, I grab my Pantene Mist Behaving Dry Conditioner Mist and spray from the mid-shaft to the ends of my hair, and then brush it through! It is infused with Omega-9 lipids that fully absorb to your hair and helps maintain any frizz I have and makes my hair smell amazing! And it make it silky soft! This is the first dry conditioner I’ve ever tried and I’m so in love with it! 

I repeat these steps daily until I have time to wash my hair! I used to only go 3 days between washes, and now I can go 7-8 days between washes when I use this Pantene duo! It takes me about 2 hours to wash, dry, and style my hair, and it only takes me 1 minute to spray on this dry shampoo & conditioner!

Let’s be real here, I think all of us find ourselves running late, feeling overwhelmed, or just not having enough time for everything! The new Pantene Waterless Collection is one way we can simplify our lives & help put some hours back on our clock! If it helped me, I know it can help you!

If you’re looking to simplify your life, or just need some extra time in your day, you need to try the new Pantene Waterless Collection!!!! Pick yours up now at Kroger – I promise you won’t regret it!

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Pantene.  The opinions and text are all mine.

Hey loves! Today I'm excited to share a new product with you I've been using from Pantene! It just launched in the U.S. in January and I wish I would have known about it sooner! (It's been hiding out in Brazil!) It’s called the Pantene Pro-V Intense Rescue Shots!

When my hair needs a pick me up, (and it always does as of late) I use Pantene's Sheer Volume Shampoo, and then apply the single-dose tube of the Pantene Pro-V Intense Rescue Shots (instead of conditioner) from root to tips for 30 seconds, then rinse for 30 seconds, and BAM! My hair is renewed, restored, and BEAUTIFUL! It’s no wonder this product is the #1 selling new treatment in the hair care category!

Between styling my hair for shoots, pregnancy, traveling, bleaching my hair, and living in Utah's dry climate, my hair was begging for the Pantene Pro-V Intense Rescue Shots! Working this product into my hair routine was easy as pie and is honestly bringing my hair back to life! Every time I use it, I look like I just walked fresh out of the salon!

All of Pantene's products have the nutrients our hair needs to be healthy and beautiful, including their Pantene Pro-V Intense Rescue Shots! In my opinion, this is their best repair product yet! It contains Pro-Vitamin B5, strengthening lipids, and natural glycerin that targets damaged hair areas giving your hair its shine, strength, and body back! It gives you a deep conditioning but rinses quickly to avoid weighing down your hair and noticeably repairs extreme hair damage! It can even turn dry, brittle hair into soft and shiny hair!

So babes, if you're looking to makeover your hair in a major way, no matter what your hair type is or what it's been through, I challenge you to try out this product! SERIOUSLY! I absolutely love it and firmly believe it can take your hair next level, just like it took mine! The Pantene Pro-V Intense Rescue Shots are available now at Target.com – see here! xx

Amara Day Spa // Natalie Mckell // Pink PJs // Graphic Tee 

You asked for it, so I'm bringing it! Everything you've ever asked about my hair is HERE! I'm a hair + extensions nazi.. so if you're the same then dig in to this post! 

For starters, YES I have extensions! I've had them for 7 years. NO, they are not damaging. My hair in the extensions is always longer & healthier than my hair out of the extensions!  

Right now I have 18" bonded extensions. (See picture above.) I've had both wefts and tapes in the past, but bonds are by far my favorite! They are low maintenance, they match your hair color perfectly, blend amazing, adds thickness and length, you can brush right over them, custom color them, go more time in between adjusting them.. bonds are literally everything! 

I had my bonded extensions done at Amara Day Spa and recommend them one billion percent! I've been going to Amara for my nails for years now, and have seen this service done on a few of their clients. I had always wanted to try this extension method out, and am kicking myself in the butt for not doing it sooner! I'm seriously soo happy with them! (Little side note, if you haven't been to Amara, you MUST go! It's the cutest high end salon in Utah county and I don't go anywhere else for most services! They do everything from hair to waxing to Botox! GO SEE THEM! Allssoo, Amara is the ONLY place I go to for nails! My girl Myka is THE BEST! She's the reason my nails are so long, healthy, and beautiful!) 

KK, back to hair! The picture above with my tongue out is my actual hair length! Yes, my hair is crazy short! If you're worried your natural hair is too short for extensions, then stop right now! Extensions can blend with any hair length!  

I've used just about every brand of extensions on the market and am currently using Racoon hair. (Amara has it at their salon!) Racoon hair is the softest, most natural looking, & prettiest hair I've ever used! It's also the priciest hair I've used, but it's worth it! (Racoon hair is Remy hair. I've only used Remy hair extensions and recommend you do the same as well! Remy is the best brand on the market!) 

I wash and dry my extensions exactly the same as I do my real hair. There's NO DIFFERENCE! For shampoo and conditioner I switch off between Kevin Murphys volume set (thickens hair) and Kevin Murphys purple shampoo set! I get them from my hair gal Natalie Mckell! She's located in Orem at Sola Salon! (She's the first booth in there, you can't miss her! Natalie cuts & dyes my hair and she's INCREDIBLE! I've been through a few girls and feel like Natalie is the best in the biz!) I also occasionally wash with Oribe products because they smell heavenly! Between Kevin Murphy & Oribe, I'm beyond taken care of! My favorite products from Oribe are the dry shampoo, the texturizing spray, and the matte waves texture serum. (I use these everyday) And my favorite products from Kevin Murphy are their root pump, de tangler, and their shimmer shine spray! 

The other products/tools I use on my hair are the Mason Pearson brush, the Dry Bar hair dryer and round brush, the GHD single pass straightener, and the T3 whirl trio! All of these products are INCREDIBLE. The only thing I'm itching to add to my collection is the new Dyson hair dryer! (I've heard amazing things about it. If you're looking for a new hair dryer, I'd try this puppy out!) 

When I Style my hair, I start with a wet head. Fresh and clean! I towel dry for a minute or two, then air dry for 10 minutes! I spray the de tangler on the ends of my hair and my extensions, and the root pump at the crown of my head! Then I start round brushing + blow drying until it's 100% dry! Next I run my straightener through my hair to make it look healthy and smooth! Then I grab my whirl trio and curl everything away from my face! Sometimes I alternate the curls direction, others I don't! Once it's curled I grab my Mason Pearson brush and fluff everything out! (This brush is amazing for fluff + hair health!) After that I add the Oribe texturizing lotion & spray to help it hold! And finally I finish it off with Kevin Murphys shine spray for a perfectly polished look! In my opinion product has A LOT to do with your hair, so I always recommend investing in good, long lasting tools and products! 

For my color I honestly don't know what to tell you. (Sorry guys!) I don't know much about hair dye, and I don't ask Natalie for a specific color! She just does what she thinks will look best and I trust her! You can definitely send her a DM through Instagram though and she can help you out! Her Instagram handle is @NatalieMckellHair! 

There's a bunch of other questions you guys have emailed me about, so I'm going to answer them quickly here! <3  

YES, you can wear your hair in a pony tail with extensions!  

YES, you can work out with them! Sweat won't hurt the extensions.

YES, you can swim with them! (I don't get in the chlorine much because I'm blonde, but it doesn't hurt the extensions!)  

NO, they don't hurt! I've heard some people have been sensitive after getting them in for the first time, but I never have with any method!  

No, they don't look fake. Some DO, but if you get good hair, and have someone who knows what they're doing putting them in, they'll look amazing! Once again, I recommend the bonded method, Racoon hair or any Remy hair, and Amara salon can do this all for you!  

No, I do not lose pieces of hair! (I have with tape ins once, but once in 7 years is amazing!) If your hard on you hair, I recommend getting bonds or wefts, not tapes!  

No, they are NOT hard to style! In fact, they are easier than real hair! They hold curl much better than real hair and the curls last for days!  

YES, if you really want me to I'll upload a video of how I curl my hair. But FAIR WARNING I'm SUPER AWKWARD and it won't be anything amazing! Soo if you want a sups awks hair video tutorial, leave a comment below! 

I've been going through your emails and dms making sure I've answered all of your questions, but I'm sure I've missed a bunch! (So sorry guys!) If you have any other questions or if I missed yours, leave a comment below and I'll get back to you! 

Thanks for stopping by loves! Hoping this helps answer your questions! Love you all! <3

Shampoo // Conditioner // Oil // Texturizing Spray // Dry Shampoo 

The secret to better looking (and better smelling) hair isn't much of a secret anymore! <3 I found Oribes line about a year ago while I was visiting a local blow dry bar and instantly became hooked to their line! (It smelled like heaven, it felt amazing, and my hair was shiny for days!) 

I googled Oribe right after my appointment and ordered everything the blow dry gal had used on me. (Gold lust shampoo + conditioner & their oil.) Since then I've added a few more of their products to my routine, like their texturizing spray & dry shampoo! (Anndd their perfume bc it just smells too friggen good.)

Those of you who have followed the blog for a while know that I'm a firm believer in "you get what you pay for." Guys, quality over quantity any day! I swear in the long run, it's always worth it! Wether it's a pair of jeans that are more durable, or a foundation that last longer, there's always a reason for the price, and the reason is it's WORTH it! Oribes products are pricier than some, but man oh man are they worth it! 

Oribes shampoo & conditioner not only make my hair look/feel better, but also lasts longer than any other washes & rinses I've ever used! My hair stays cleaner longer, so I'm not washing as often. I also don't need as much product to get the job done!  

In the past, I would use oil on my hair every single day! (You kind of have to with extensions!) But with Oribes oil, I only need to apply it once per wash and my hair stays looking glossy and beautiful! ( and I wash every 4-5 days.. so that lasting shine is impressive! Also, don't judge how long I go in between washes hahaa!) With the dry shampoo I use, I could even go longer! (But that's disgusting so I don't!) I use Oribes dry shampoo every other day and my hair looks and smells as good as the day I washed it every time! And if it ever looks too clean, or needs a lil umph, I add the texturizing spray! It adds volume, texture, and a bit of stick to style! (I can't go anywhere without the dry shampoo or the texturizing spray.. I carry the travel sizes with me in my purse!) 

Oribe also has a few new products that I'm DYING to get my hands on! They have a new shampoo + conditioner called Silverati that works like a purple shampoo! (Tones the yellow down and brings out the cool tones!) The other product I need to try out is called Matte Waves! Supposedly it gives your hair that hot, voluminous, beach waved look! And let's be honest, that's pretty much the only look that matters right now! 

Thanks for stopping by loves! Hoping you all have a good hair day (; xx
