What Guys Secretly Think of Your Hair and Makeup

DIY Beachy Sea Salt Hair Spray « Poor & Pretty My favorite way of styling my hair used to be straightening it, but now it’s summer and it’s far too hot to be doing that. Plus, now that my hair is shorter {thanks, again, to my friend Ryan Gorey}, it’s easier to just wash it, throw in some product, and let it be naturally wavy. Lately, my favorite product has been my all-natural, homemade, beach-inspired, sea-salt hair spray: Ingredients: ½ cup distilled water½ cup coconut water {you can find this in the Spanish section of the grocery store}1 tbs sea salt1 tbs glycerin {you can substitute hair gel}½ tsp jojoba oil4-6 drops orange essential oil {optional}4-6 drops pink grapefruit essential oil {optional} Directions: This is super simple. Just spray it on when your hair is wet and let it dry naturally! ….Side note: can you believe I haven’t been to the beach yet? Like this post?

We are not affiliated. I just like the way they look. Let me know if you buy the wax!} Hello lovely reader. DO YOU ever make your own beauty products? My favorite, though, is homemade sugar wax or DIY sugaring (whatever you cal it). It's so quick and easy, dirt cheap (you have all the ingredients stocked in your pantry already, swear), non-toxic, hurts less than both strip and hard wax, and rinses clean off, so you don't have sticky spots on your skin when finished; it doesn't clog your pores (Hello?! Sugar Wax Ingredients 2 cups sugar 1/4 cup water 1/4 cup lemon juice Seriously. Simmer all ingredients in sauce pan on medium-high heat until amber, but don't scorch. Cool until you can handle the wax without it being too runny or sticky. Clean yer skin where you're planning to wax. Frankly, that sounds like a better night, to me, than a night on the tiles... My age is showing, isn't it?

D.I.Y. Curls // How To Rag Roll Your Hair I love the look of naturally curly hair! My sweet friend, Katie, told me about rag rolling.

Have fun styling!
