FOTD: Valentine's Day look and wavy hair tutorial

Hey girls, yesterday I went to Sally's beauty supply store to get myself a hair curler. I've been searching online to find the perfect hair curler, but its always been the expensive kind, which I can't afford! So I just went to Sally's and got myself a Jilbere 1 inch hair curler, and its a pretty good one out of the other brands I got at Walmart. Its cost $30.00 for this curler, heats up to 395 degree Fahrenheit and I think it might be worth it!

I did this tutorial on how to do wavy hair, its pretty well said and done with the pictures!

My makeup look for this FOTD is basically using Mac Fluidline in Blacktrack, NYX Eucalyptus round lipstick and some falsies! Very retro but fun look for V-day! Hope you guys enjoy!


1. This is me with straight hair


2. Section your hair in half and start to curl the bottom part like so...


3. Leave it for about 8-10 seconds and take it out, it will look similar to this..


4. The outcome when I curl all of it


5. After its been curl, use your hands to comb through the curls(don't worry if it get straight, we'll get to the hairspray)


6. Then use your finger to twist the curl into place.


7. So it would look like this


Finish look!

Super cute! I got my Hot Tools curling iron for $40 and I love it! You can get great tools for affordable prices, you just have to know what to look for (and I agree, it's better to get something at a beauty store than Walmart or Target type of places). =)
