If You Color Your Hair, You’re Going To Want to Read This.

If You Color Your Hair, You’re Going To Want to Read This.

I have been coloring my hair for many many years and it's always been important for me to use products that preserve my color. As much as I love my hairdresser, I like to keep my salon visits at a minimum. Since I've colored for so long, I have to use certain products to keep it healthy and reduce breakage. ...

Bedtime Dry Shampoo Hack

Bedtime Dry Shampoo Hack

If you want to prolong your blowout, this is the trick to keep your hair looking fresh. Because of this hack, I am down to washing my hair once (maybe twice) a week. Which is honestly a pretty big accomplishment for me. I have thick hair and ever since having George, it's been more oily at the roots. Weird, right? I have to use a dry shampoo that gives me a powdery white finish and a little grit. Trust me, the white powder will go away if you follow these steps. ...

How I Get Loose Curls

How I Get Loose Curls

I love the look of messy, loose curls. I often get asked how I curl my hair since I cut it (here's how I styled it when it was longer) and figured the easiest way to show you would be through a video. I tried to be specific and detailed since I share a few tips (and things to avoid) if you are trying to achieve that piecey, "undone" curl hairstyle.  ...

This $8 Shampoo and Conditioner Made My Hair So Soft — And it’s Sulfate-Free.

This $8 Shampoo and Conditioner Made My Hair So Soft — And it’s Sulfate-Free.

 As someone who has colored and heat-styled her hair regularly for the past 15 years, my hair care routine is something that I take into careful consideration. And while it might be enticing to shop at luxury beauty stores to find the latest and greatest, hey I can be guilty of it too, regularly incorporating these types of products into our routine isn't the healthiest strategy long-term for our bank accounts. And higher price tags don't always mean it's a better product. About a month ago, I started to try my luck at this $8 shampoo and conditioner by Hair Food. What originally caught my eye (besides the price tag) was that it is made from pure ingredients and free of parabens, mineral oils, silicones, sulfates and dyes. The proof of the power of these ingredients lies in the results. And my hair is all the better for it. ...

4 Hacks For Low-Maintenance Hair Color

4 Hacks For Low-Maintenance Hair Color

Hair care, styling tips and “what to tell your hairdresser” are topics we cover frequently on TTD. Whether you get our monthly newsletters with beauty tips or you follow along on Instagram Stories (#TTDBeautyTalk), you have probably heard me mention these a time or two.  But in all honesty, they are what I have been doing for the past 5 years and what every hairdresser I meet recommends — because you know I’m obnoxious and ask them for their tips.  Below I’m breaking down 4 easy hacks you can start doing TODAY if you color your hair. I do each one of these and only get my hair done 3-4 times a year. Of course, everyone’s needs are different, but I’m convinced that a few of these are the main reason my hair color has lasted so long.  ...

The Hair Accessories I Want to Try this Season

The Hair Accessories I Want to Try this Season

I’m usually pretty simple when it comes to my hairstyle — I like loose curls, piecey layers and a somewhat "undone" approach to my everyday hairdo. But lately, I’ve had so much fun with hair bows and headbands. There’s definitely a trend we are seeing in wearing accessories like silk ribbons, scrunchies and headbands. Not only is this the perfect solution to second (or third) day hair styling, but it also offers a youthful feel without being too childlike.  ...
