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!

  • Target did NOT disappoint with the fall finds 🍂👀

The burnt orange tee is giving fall, those viral mules are SO good (I really don’t think they’ll stay in stock long), and those little terracotta pumpkins for $3?! 😍

  • Grimaldi’s has been a part of our family memories for years, so getting to experience their Kids Pizza Academy together made this visit extra special. 🍕 

From stretching the dough to choosing our toppings 🧀 and making our own pizzas, it was such a fun way to add another memory to the list.

There’s just something special about the places that become part of your family’s story and @grimaldispizzeria is definitely one of those for us. ❤️

  • #ad If your afternoons feel like a sprint, save this easy snack idea! ✨🙌🏻

Before school pickup, I pack quick snack boxes with pretzels, fruit, cheese, and the NEW @QuakerChewy Protein Granola Bars, so everything is ready when it’s time to head to activities. 

They have the same delicious chewy taste and texture we already love, and each bar has 5g of protein and 10g of whole grains, making them an easy addition to our snack boxes. They come in Caramel Chocolate Chip and Maple & Brown Sugar flavors - both are equally amazing!

What’s one snack that’s always in your after-school rotation?

  • No gatekeeping here… this is my #1 planner tip for middle school. ✏️📓

I’m teaching my daughter how to actually use a planner this year, and @pilotpenusa FriXion Vibe Erasable Pens are the MUST HAVE. Because assignments, tests, activities and plans are going to change and I don’t want her planner covered in confusing, crossed-out dates. 😂

I also love that she can choose her colors based on her vibe. We’re using ZenFocus for schoolwork and assignments and DreamGlow for goals, creative ideas and the things she’s excited about this year. 💚💙💗💜

Middle school is a big enough adjustment. If I can help her feel a little more organized and prepared going into it, I’m calling that a win.
