Curly Hair TAG


Hey Ladies!!! Here is another!!! 

I Tag all of you Curly Cues out there ;)


1. What inspired you to go natural or wear your hair curly?
When my hair is long I like to wear it curly more often than now when my hair is midlength. I like the way my curls form better when its shorter but I don’t like how boxy it can look. I usually wear my curly when I want a wild look or when I need to give my hair a break on heat styling.

2. Who are your favorite curly hair idols?
Julia Roberts has great curls, I know there are more but im not one for being put on the spot haha


3. Which You Tube curly would you trade curls with for a day?
Im not so sure that I follow any naturally curly guru’s :s that sounds horrible if I do I definitely cannot see them in my head right now sorrry ladies!!


4. If you could have only one product for a year, which product would you chose?
I would have to say that this will be my John Frieda Volumizing Spray that stuff works wonderssss! 


5. If you could change one thing about your curls what would it be?
The way my curls are formed! I wish there werent so tight and wish they were uniform! Mine are tight curls at the root then they loosen up in the middle and go almost straight at the ends! So hard to work with!!!


6. What's the craziest thing you've tried on your "natural hair journey"?
Ummm I havent really gone this route with my hair.


7. What's your secret ingredient that your curls LOVE the most?
Condition, condition, condition. I cannot stress this enough.


8. If you could merge two brands of products to make your perfect product, which two would it be?
Hmmm. I don’t really use awhole lot of products but I would say my John Frieda Volumizing Spray and my Kenra Volumizing Spray.


9. What is your go-to hair style when you're in a rush?
Either the bang bump or a messy bun if I have long hair or low pony if I have short hair, and sometimes ill do a french braid.


10. If your curly hair had a name, what would it be and why? 
Spoiled. Because it does what it wants when it wants! No matter how much I redirect and try to force it a certain way my curls have a mind of there own, better just to listen makes the day much less frustrating haha.

Thanks for tuning in once again 

Love always Tiny.


Hey Ladies! One of my fellow bloggers did this and I think its a fantastic idea! Doing YouTube Tags in written form on the blog!! Whoo! Im excited!

Blush or Bronzer? 
Gonna have to say Bronzer for this one, since it not only warms up the face but can also be used as a blush or a contour, if its matte.

Lip Gloss or Lipstick? 
Lipstick, I love gloss to make the lip look plumped, but that can be achieved with other things, at least with lipstick you have a variety of colors and finishes to work with :)

Eyeliner or Mascara? 
Mascara for sure! 

Foundation or Concealer? 
Foundation for sure, don’t know what I'd do without it HeHe.

Neutral or Color Eye Shadow?

Look What I Got!!

OMGEEE!

Ladies I am super duper stoked!

Earlier this week one of my favorite MUA's I follow on twitter subbed to my YouTube channel!!!!  
Super stoked about that! When you have a minute Check out her Blog too!

Annd I got my first makeup up books! I am super excited to get all the information and start applying it! As I learn I will show you guys on here as much as I can :))

Before I went out and bought anything I looked into it a bit, rather than going to the book store blind.

I am on a handful of MU Groups on FB and I talked to alot of girls on there about the books that worked the best for them and then I went to the store and grabbed all the books that they had in stock one of each sat down and went thru each book, the ones that appealed to me the most for what I looking to learn at this time were these two books.

Bobbi Brown - Makeup Manual

This is an amazing book for any beginner. Its simply written and attractive to the eye, easy to understand from what I've observed so far. Its very detailed oriented and it even has a section at the end for the professional side of things, if your interested in that direction. It also has looks in there and step by step directions on how to recreate it.

I also got....

Scott Barnes - About Face

From just sitting in the book store looking at this book, I am already so amazed! Scott Barnes is a celebrity makeup artist one of the artists he does is Jennifer Lopez! He talks about his style in application and most of the book is his transfirmations, Celebrity Transformations, they have a step by step guide on how to recreate it, and he goes thru a conversation with them and does a look, and has thier feedback on it as well! Along with all that greatness hes got his tips on everything you need to know about makeup.

I snapped a lil photo for you to see, mostly cause I got excited and wanted to show em off haha!



I am sooo excited to dive in!

I will keep you all posted on the content!
