Everyday Looks – Quick, Easy Curls for Long Hair

Let’s be honest, this post title should really be Everyday Looks – Quick and Easy Curls Tutorial for Long Hair that is VERY thick. My main problem with my thick hair is that everything takes forever. Drying my hair takes ages and I absolutely love curling my hair, however, it takes a century to section it all out. On top of that, I normally end up burning my fingers a few times in the process. Its a real struggle. I am constantly searching for hair dryers that shorten my dry time while not damaging my hair too much in the process. It is hard trade off, because normally a dryer that will dry my hair quickly produces a ton of heat, which damages my hair more. However, I heard great things about some new Conair products, so I set off to Walmart on a mission.

IMG_4219Tools I grabbed:

  • Infiniti Pro by Conair® 3Q™ Brushless Motor Dryer
  • Infiniti Pro by Conair® Curl Secret®
  • Conair 90 pack Bobby Pins
  • Conair Velvet Paddle Brush

IMG_3848 Step One. I used the Infiniti Pro by Conair® 3Q™ Brushless Motor Dryer to dry my hair. This hairstyling tool dried my hair in about the same amount of my time as my current high-powered dryer. This really shocked me, because when I turned on the dryer the lower temperature had me questioning if it was really going to work well on my hair. I was so wrong, not only did it dry my hair in a quick fashion, but the lower temperature minimized heat damage leaving my hair feeling smooth without as much frizz as normal. IMG_4167Step Two. I am also extremely picky about my brush. I have had the same brush since high school (sorry I know that is gross, I clean it I swear). I just haven’t been able to find another paddle brush I like as much. But, I decided to try the Conair Velvet Paddle brush because it looked so appealing. After my hair was dry, I brushed through my hair and started my first inch section of hair. IMG_4171

Step Three. I used the Infiniti Pro by Conair® Curl Secret® to curl my hair. The idea behind the product is genius. It is virtually impossible to burn yourself! All you have to do is place a half-inch to an inch strand of hair into the chamber and the tool draws your hair in the chamber, curls it for a few seconds and then beeps consecutively when it is finished. I opened the chamber after I heard two beeps (this seemed to be the perfect timing for my hair) and out came a perfect curl!

Step Four. Enjoy all the extra time on your hands, because the Infiniti Pro by Conair® Curl Secret® leaves you with effortless curls in no time at all! It reduced my curling time by over 50%. That is so huge in the morning when I am rushing to work.

    I’ve wanted to try that curler for awhile but I’ve been gawking at the price tag on it!!! The dryer looks wonderful too. It may be time to replace my old reliable that I’ve had since either high school or middle school lol!

  • #BISSELLPartner I really thought my floors were clean… until I turned this on 😳

The headlights showed EVERYTHING—dust, crumbs, all the stuff you don’t normally see—and honestly, I don’t have time to go over the same spot again and again, so this is a lifesaver.

Lately, I’ve been using the BISSELL PowerClean DualBrush™ and what I love most is that it handles real-life messes in ONE PASS.

From breakfast crumbs on hardwood to dirt in the entryway to debris in rugs, it just moves right through it. The dual brush rolls grab both big and small messes, and the AutoAdapt technology automatically boosts suction when it hits dirtier areas, so you’re not doing extra work.

& The FurFinder™ Upholstery Tool targets stubborn, pet hair and removes it so well! 

✨COMMENT “shop” for the link ✨ It’s also $100 off right now ($359.99 → $259.99) from 4/5–5/30! Do yourself a favor, add this to your cart!
