Saffron Hair Elixir – JOON

March 7, 2019 No Comments

If you have been following my blog for a while, you’ve probably caught on that I am a creature of habit. I absolutely love trying out new products and seeing what works and what doesn’t but for the most part, I stick to the same old same old. Because of this, a product has to be pretty amazing for me to add it to my routine. The Joon Saffron Hair Elixr is just that. Being half Persian myself, I have always known about saffron. It is used in countless meals that my family eats on a regular basis and every […]

Dream Combo for Soft & Shiny Hair

December 6, 2018 No Comments

More than anything else on my blog, I get asked about my hair. What products I use, how I style it, my cut, my color, everything! In the last several months I have discovered two products that are absolutely key in getting soft, shiny hair that I am so excited to share! Some people say their hair styles best when its dirty and has a little grit, but I am the opposite. My hair always styles the best when it is clean and soft! The Dream Combo: The last time I got my hair done, my hairdresser introduced me to […]

Everything About HAIR

October 28, 2018 No Comments

Getting your hair done is always so exciting and fun but it’s super important to know how to communicate exactly what you’re wanting with your hairdresser ! Here are my tips for doing so, so that you can leave the salon loving your new hair! 1. Bring pictures of what you want Seems pretty obvious, but a picture of what you don’t know how to describe can be the difference between getting the cut/color you want versus something you totally weren’t expecting. Point out specifics in the picture of what you like (“I like the tone of her blonde highlights, I […]

The $3 Hair Mask Worth Trying

June 4, 2018 No Comments

Move over, Sephora! No need to spend a fortune on a hair mask when Aussie exists! (JK Sephora I still <3 you!) When I saw this hair mask was only $3 dollars, I’ll admit, I was hesitant. My haircare has always been dominantly drugstore products, but $3?! That sounds like a disaster in a bottle. Except for when it’s actually amazing! The Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Smooth Deep Conditioner has become a staple in my routine! While you’re in the shower, work this into your hair and let it soak in for 3 minutes. I skip conditioning entirely when I […]

Product Highlight: Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray

February 14, 2018 No Comments

When I go through in with my hair styling products I have three goals: hold, texturize, and volumize. Usually this means a hairspray and either a texturizing spray, dry shampoo, or both! But, after discovering the Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray, all my needs are met with just one product! I have to give full credit to my good friend Kelsey for this one. She introduced me to it and it is now a total staple in my routine! What it does: Soaks up any oil to keep your hair fresh and grease free throughout the day Creates amazing texture without […]

Herbal Essences Bio Renew

December 11, 2017 No Comments

If you read my “Favorite Hair Products” post then you probably saw how obsessed I am with the Smooth Collection shampoo and conditioner from Herbal Essences. I have literally used that stuff for as long as I can remember and I think it’s simply the best. Because of that, you can probably imagine my excitement when the first products I received as a beauty blogger were some from Herbal Essences new BioRenew line. I’d be lying if I didn’t say I was a little nervous to try these products, too. I was so obsessed with the Smooth Collection that I […]

I Colored My Hair!! Back to Brunette <3

August 24, 2017 No Comments

This Persian girl is back to her roots! I naturally have darkish brown hair that lightens up in the summer, probably thanks to my blonde haired mama. For the past 2 and a half years I have been balayage highlighting my hair similar to the way Jessie James Decker’s hair looks, but I just recently decided to go back to brunette! Pics of my old hair below: I have a tough head of hair that can handle a lot, but this last summer I really started noticing the bleach taking its toll. My hair just wasn’t as soft and shiny […]

My New Flat Iron (Drybar)

July 30, 2017 No Comments

Who do I think I am, a hair junkie now? I’m not sure, but I have been loving playing around with my hair styling routine lately, which is why when my trusty CHI caputted on me on Wednesday night, I didn’t fret too hard at the idea of buying a new one. The first place I went was Ulta. I thought about just repurchasing the CHI but that seemed so boring and it was 100 dollars for the same of what I was used to (I didn’t absolutely love my CHI to begin with, but it did the job and […]

Favorite Hair Products!

July 10, 2017 No Comments

I have always been pretty low maintenance with my hair. I’m definitely more of a makeup person, so up until recently when I started getting into haircare, I was a shampoo, conditioner, and some hairspray/volumizing powder when I curl my hair kind of person (ok, maybe I’m not that low maintenance, but I like to think I am). Some background on my hair: I have a lot of it. Its pretty fine (thanks mama), but there is a LOT of it (thanks pops). I have been coloring my hair since I was a sophomore in high school, so 7 years […]
