this is the easiest way to get authentic but polished beachy looking waves
-let hair airdry until bone dry (I did mine the following day to ensure maximum dryness and for a more messy look) *if you have super curly/frizzy hair smooth down some of the hairline when hair is wet with your fingers making sure the blowdryer and fingers are smoothing hair in a downward motion/if you have straight hair use a diffuser to add texture -put a heat protecting treatment oil that adds shine/polish/frizz control *I used Drybar Treatment Oil which is my FAVORITE all-in-one product that doesn't weigh the hair down one bit, not even the fine-haired ladies (you can even sleep with this stuff on your ends for a treatment) - use a 1" barrel curling iron *if you like a looser or tighter look adjust the iron size/ if your hair is super straight use a smaller iron and take finer sections - section off hair and wrap hair around the iron *this is the key for a natural look, wrap the hair in different directions towards the face, away from the face, wrapped on top, and take varying hair section sizes so the hair doesn't look too done (small and medium sections)! - for the top section take bigger pieces and wrap hair around the iron looser or wrap tight and pull the curl while hot to looser it and straighten it a bit - finish with the cool shot on the hairdryer to set, add extra oil or Oribe beach spray and you're done!!
++ pro-tip ++ if you have trouble with one side of your hair and curling practice with the iron when it is off, this will help you get comfortable with different directions and angles

So here I present the first of the "Dream Woman" series.
Linda Rodin is the type of woman you dream of becoming (or even meeting)- chic, elegant, and inspiring. Embracing her age and showing off her signature white hair, while not conventional, exudes an undeniable confidence. More women need to embrace their age and show it proudly!
Linda Rodin is an ex-stylist (touted as one of the best in the bizz) who now has one of the most sought after luxury beauty lines out there RODIN olio lusso. Her belief in products are that simplicity is key and all her products are made with high-grade essential oils and the packaging mirrors everything she believes in- chic and simple!
Summer is around the corner and it's a great time to start a consistent exfoliation routine for healthy glowing skin!
Exfoliation rules: - removes dead skin + regenerates new skin -improves circulation -helps with stretch marks/scars/wrinkles fighting signs of aging - improves skin texture, evening it out - allows for moisture (lotions, oils, skincare products) to penetrate deeper
below you can find my personal scrub recipe! It's cheap, all natural, and therapeutic
