L’oreal Elnett Hairspray

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I have a lot of hair and I tend to get a lot of questions (on my YouTube channel especially) about how I style my hair. I have long, color treated, hair. I have a lot of hair, but my hair is very fine and naturally straight. A lot of days I will curl my hair with either a 1 1/2 inch Hot Tools Curling Iron or a Nume Wand which adds a lot of volume. I also do the regular tricks like blow drying my hair upside down or spraying my hair with a hairspray like L’Oreal Elnett which I’ve blogged about before here. However, I have a confession, I *hate* teasing my hair! I am really bad at backcombing, and almost never do it. I remember my sorority sister teasing my hair before going out to a party when “the bump” was in (circa 2007) because I couldn’t do it myself. Today I want to share two of my favorite products that I use to add lift and volume to my fine hair and help me avoid backcombing.

Bed Head SuperStar Blowdry Lotion for Thick Massive Hair:

I let my hair air dry as long as possible and then put a nickel to quarter sized amount of this thin watery liquid into into my palms and with my head upside down and then blow dry my hair as I normally would. I love the way this smells, and definitely notice a dramatic difference! I love that my hair looks very voluminous and full.

Batiste Dry Styling XXL Plumping Powder:

This product isn’t something that I use daily, but when I really want to add lift to my roots without teasing I reach for this. This is a white powder that feels like corn starch and you can feel it grip to your hair. It is a product that you have to be very careful with and add a little bit at a time. I part my hair and add a bit to the roots in several sections around my crown to increase the volume of my hair. It works REALLY well and once I get the volume I gentle brush it out or use my fingers to get it how I want it before *lightly* setting it with a hair spray.

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I hope that all of you had a fantastic weekend! As a beauty blogger, I try a lot of different products so that I can review them and always be learning more about makeup, skincare, and hair care items. Although I love trying new things, I have certain items that I consider “Holy Grail” or that I always repurchase. There is one hairspray that I buy and insist on using EVERY. SINGLE.DAY and today I want to share that with you : )

L’OREAL ELNETT HAIRSPRAY

I love this because it is a strong hold hairspray but it doesn’t make my hair feel stiff. This gives great hold without the heavy, hard feeling that other strong hold hair sprays have. It is expensive for a drugstore hairspray, but it’s cheaper than a lot of higher end brands. The nozzle is great because the mist is very fine and doesn’t get gunked up easily. I like to use this on my curls and then after they’ve set for a few minutes I finger comb them. This is a fantastic hairspray for big pretty curls, because it combs out beautifully. I also use this to tame flyaway hairs or for any of my other hairstyles (*Note: that’s basically a top knot on dirty hair days, let’s be real!).I love this spray so much that I repurchase it ALWAYS and when I left it at a friends last month I noticed immediately and cringed when I used some other random hairspray sitting in my bathroom until I could grab another can of this. Bottom line? Go get some! It’s truly awesome.
