Woman Getting Haircut emoji 19 items
I dream every night that I wake up with curly hair, but I never do…. So here are my very not complicated steps to get my hair straight. I also included what I use to do my hair like a blowout-esque look, a slick back, or just other accesories.

Straight Hair Dont Care

This is very simple I know!!! But my hair is very straight, so I do not need to do much.

These towels are so much nicer for your hair! They do not tug or pull on it. Just squeeze as much water as you can and wrap it up!

I know the brush looks funny but they do not pull on your hair. They are so gentle. It is so nice not to lose hair every time I brush!!!

Blowout (ish) Hair

This is what I use when I want to do my hair! After about 2 years, I think I finally got this down!

I never blow-dry my hair. I normally shower the night before and do my hair the next day. This means dry hair- most heat protectants are for damp hair. However, this one goes on dry!

I use velcro rollers to get my bangs to flow! When I just use it for my bangs I do not need a clip!

I will use the tiniest amount of this. Too much of this will make my curls far since my hair is pretty thin.

If you are rolling your whole head in rollers, I suggest using some clips to help everything stay in place!

I use a straightener (any of them)  to curl my hair. I know it sounds silly but I think it looks more like a blow-out curl than a bouncy ringlet curl.

Slick Backs

I have about a 3-day hair routine. Day 1: I wear my hair down, Day 2: half up-half down, and Day 3: slick back. Then I wash and repeat!

I use my brother's old hair comb to part my hair and to get the hair approximately where I want it.

I use a thick brush to smooth and “glue” the hair to my head and get rid of any flyaways. I make sure the brush bristles are firm and close together.

I use these when doing fun hairstyles. Just be careful when taking them out put a little hair oil on the band to make it easier.

Claw clips are such a staple right now. I have the same exact black pack as in the picture. The big one I use for all my hair. The medium one I use for a half up-half down look and I flip the ponytail over to hide the clip. The small one I use for a ...
