We've all heard that a detox can be a great way to restart your body, but have you ever tried a hair detox? If you are someone who uses dry shampoo, colors your hair or wants to extend your blowout, this might be something worth exploring. ...
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. ...
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. ...
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. ...
Happy Friday! Haircare is a frequent topic of conversation around here and I wanted to share with you guys three products I always travel with. That's right — they are always in my suitcase no matter the trip. ...
I am so excited to finally share an updated hair tutorial featuring how I get my everyday loose curls. I'm definitely not a pro, but this is my regular routine and my favorite way to style my hair. Not only is it a low maintenance hairstyle, but I actually figured out how to get my curls to last a good 2 (maybe 3) days without restyling. Don't worry, I'm sharing my secrets below. I hope you enjoy this loose curls hair tutorial! If you try this tutorial and love the results, be sure to tag #TTDbeautytalk on instagram or twitter for a chance to be featured on my instagram-stories! Thanks for stopping by! xx Ashley HOW TO GET LOOSE CURLS
Today's post is a little different. But believe or not, I get a lot of questions about Austin's beard and hairstyle. This is a department I can confidently say I know nothing about. So, Austin offered to put together a short gift guide for guys with beards. I hope this helps! Here's what he wrote: ...
Being someone who colors her hair, I have a few tricks up my sleeve when it comes to color maintenance. After all, coloring services can get expensive and if you're like me, you want to do whatever you can to keep haircolor from fading.
My hair is naturally light brown, with caramel undertones. I like to keep it lighter by adding cool blonde highlights and balayage. While I don't mind a little warmth, I do not want my hair to look brassy.
The number one product that helps my hair from getting too brassy, is purple shampoo. ...
If you've followed my blog for a while, you know how much I love dry shampoo. It may just be my favorite product in my beauty bag. I rely on it (almost) every day and I love how easy and convenient it is. I often get questions asking about my hair care routine & curling iron (read more about that here), but the most common question is about my dry shampoo. ...
In honor of awards season, I wanted to share with you one of my favorite red carpet hairstyles, the classic chignon. I love this timeless style and find that it's appropriate for many occasions. We've seen this style polished to perfection, but I wanted to share my take on a slightly messier version that I find chic and "effortless". It's actually pretty easy too!
Thanks for reading, and here's to fabulous looking hair! xx

I find that day old hair works best for this updo, it gives the hair a little extra grit and volume when worn up. Start by throwing in a few curls with a 1 ¼” Professional Curling Iron. This curling iron is my favorite because I love the size (perfect for those loose curls) and it has a variety of heat settings, making it ideal for all hair types. The barrel is 24k gold plated, and the high heat of the curling iron gives me 24 hour, long lasting curls, which is perfect for a long night out. I am very picky when it comes ...
