I am a super visual person. I learn best by watching, then doing. Tutorials rarely work for me, I just have to dive in and try things until I get them right. This is true even for something as simple as doing my own hair. When I change my hairstyle, I must have my hair stylist walk me through each new step of styling my hair so that I can try it myself at home. Even then, it’s usually weeks before I can get it completely right.
I’ve been growing my hair out for a couple of years. Now that it is long and the mercury is rising (and rising) in Atlanta, I’ve been attempting some new up do’s in an attempt to steer away from what was quickly becoming my everyday look, a low ponytail with side swept bangs.
So, I was really excited when I saw a new product line from Goody, the hair accessory company. The Goody simple styles collection includes 4 new tools for an assortment of styles, a storage pouch and a style guide. In fact, you can download the style guide here: Goody Simple Styles Style Guide.
It’s only $14.99 plus shipping and handling – not a bad deal! I’ll let you know how I like the items when my order comes in.
Another hairstyling resource fell into my lap over the weekend in the form of my favorite wedding magazine, Martha Stewart Weddings. In the current issue, check out the D-I-Y hairstyle feature. It’s fantastic!
