HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!
I am following up on my previous post where I said I'd talk about my HAIRCUT... butttt I've also dyed my hair! I totally raved about my super awesome blonde hair, and then I go ahead and dye my hair brunette.. who does that?!
Dolls, I HAD TO! After I cut all my hair off, I just didnt feel right being blonde anymore. I LOVED when it was longer and blonde, but short and blonde was starting to annoy me! Nonetheless, it's winter here in NJ and my hair was just looking super crappy. It's different being in the Sunny Summertime with beautiful blonde locks... sun reflecting off your hair, wind breezes through it.. so fab! But I was just feeling blah and decided to get back to my natural color! I am loving, it by the way!

BEFORE and AFTER
I am truly loving it! I havent seen my hair this color in over 2 years, kinda feels like the old me! I am really looking forward to not having to bleach it every few weeks as well! I will definitely give it some kind to grow out healthy (which it's SUPER healthy right now so I know it will only get better!), get a few trims along the way, and then eventually grow it out super long again! CANT WAIT!
So, thats my hair update!
Hope you all had a wonderful New Year and I look forward to getting back into the groove of things on here!!
XO!

Hi Dolls!
Totally need to rave right now...
I received my Hana Pro Flat Iron a week a half ago, and I. AM. IN. LOVE. I have crazy hair. You will see below how crazy it really is! I just recently cut it (which I will show pictures of and talk more about in my next post). But before I cut it, it was long and super knotty, and dry. It sucked! I had no choice to go this short due to how damaged it actually was. I have been "blonde" or highlighted hardcore "blonde" since 2009. I get my hair bleached every few months and lets just say I am lucky I still have hair. lol
Before I ever dyed my hair it was sooo gorgeous, soft, long, and dark. Super pretty, but also, SUPER boring. I dont regret ever adding the blonde to my hair because I love it and so does my family and friends. So, I am not complaining, but rather explaining my situation.. lol
Anyways, I have been using my Flat Iron on my crazy hair, and it has made it feel so amazing, I play with it non stop! It's soooooo soft, and feels so healthy. Can a hair straightener actually do that? My Hana Pro does!
See for yourself! (totally embarrassed of my birds nest hair - lol)

What I also use is the Hana Shine Shield heat protectant and hair treatment. I use this before I blow dry and straighten my hair. It makes my hair smell amazing, and feel like silk. It's awesome!
If this Flat Iron can straighten that crazy birds nest you see photographed above, then you know it's a good product! I love how easy it is to use, and how you can control the heat settings - it also heats up super quickkkk! The heat proof mat that comes with it is so essential! I never owned one before and I am so so happy I have one now! It also came with a heat proof pouch which is great for traveling!
If there's a Flat Iron you need to have, it's this one! Check out these other products on their site as well! The first link is to the one I own!
If you have any questions on this badboy, ask away!!
