No one wakes up with perfect hair, I bet you not even J Lo and the Kardashians combined. If not for #teamglam they’d be roaming the streets with dry, frizzy and tangled hair like us. While I can hide bad hair days with a barrette bun (see video-torial here), some days I want to channel a diva-kinda aura. So how about some loose beach waves today? come get ready with me!
To create loose waves, I recommend using 1 or 1.5-inch barrel curler. Part your hair then work in sections. You can use clips but I prefer to tie because I am working on hugggeee hair. Curl hair away from your face starting from crown to tip. This will give you relaxed, beachy-kind waves. Run fingers through curls to loosen. Optional step: apply styling treatment whilst scrunching hair up.
As you’ve seen from the video, I have monstrous color-treated hair. Yes I do love it but it does require serious maintenance. I don’t wash it daily to preserve the color and prevent excessive dryness. I’d say on average, it’s between 2-3 days depending on my activity. In lieu, I rely on dry shampoo and argan oil to give my hair extra boost and shine. Recently I had the opportunity to try Perfect Hair Day Night Cap Overnight Perfector by Living Proof. It’s supposed to give hair volume and vibrance as we sleep. But you know me, I find ways to maximize a product so while I do like the concept of using it before bedtime, I also utilize it in the morning for pre-styling. I’m all about scents so I’m happy to report that it smells divine. And yes, my hair feels light and bouncy so this beauty is definitely a keeper!
If you use styling tools on a regular basis, it’s paramount to give your hair extra TLC. 5-in-1 Styling Treatment smooths, volumizes, conditions, and strengthens hair. You can use it on damp or dry hair. Prime Style Extender as the name implies extends your hairstyle. I use these two interchangeably and get the same outstanding results. Plus they don’t dry out my hair, guaranteed!

These look like awesome products!
I believe this company was started by some PhDs from MIT, in my neck o' the woods. I've heard really good things about the products for color-treated hair. Gotta try 'em some day. I just got my hair cut yesterday, but seeing your pretty waves makes me long for long hair 😉
I hadn't heard of this line before but it sure looks promising! My hair just hates product and won't keep curls.
Wow, your hair looks absolutely amazing, Kath!!!!!!!
LOVE that look! I have super straight hair and I always want to add waves to it. I DO want to try that line though.
Your hair looks gorgeous! Loving the waves.
These products sound so good. Your hair tutorials is making me miss my long hair.
I've been using the Living Proof 5 in 1 Perfect Hair Day treatment and I'm in love. I was skeptical at first but it's fabulous. This overnight stuff sounds great too.
I haven't used the product, but have heard good things about them. I like how your hair turned out.
I would love to try the Night Cap – the hair mask is amazing, and the 5-1 treatment works so well on my hair. I actually used both the last time I washed, and truly did have a perfect hair day.
I just tried the styling treatment and it's fabulous! Normally anything post-wash greases my hair up but this is light and non-greasy. LOVE your waves!
Your hair looks gorgeous as always! I've been dying to try Night Cap.
I love Living Proof! You look beautiful!
Looking fabulous as usual girl… I think this is a product I need to check out – you are the second person that talked about it.
You always look so flawless! This sounds amazing!
The overnight treatment sounds like a great product. Love the video too- I'm terriblee with hair and can use any and every tip 😀
I have always wondered how to get the perfect waves. My husband isn't a fan of tight curls but he likes wavy so I will have to give this product a try! Thanks for the tips!
I love what you did here. Gorgeous!
You have such amazing hair Kath!
I haven't had any luck with Living Proof on my hair, but so many people I know use/love it and your hair is gorgeous here
