A Memory Of Us

Happy Friday, everyone! Today I am sharing with you my latest Instagrams. If you aren't following along there already, make sure you fix that. As I've mentioned in previous Instagram Roundups, I am always try to put different content on the blog and on my feed! I hope you all have a good weekend. We are watching the Royals in the World Series, going to a Halloween party, and celebrating the fact that 2 years ago on Halloween Tyler proposed!

What could be better than a blanket scarf and puffer vest for chilly fall days?

I was recently sent an eight in one curling wand set from Irresistible Me and am completely in love with it! Today I am sharing with you all how I use the wand to curl my hair.

The Irresistible Me set comes with eight different wand types. It all comes in a heat proof pouch for easy storing. One of my favorite things about the wand is that it automatically shuts off after it is on for awhile. This is great for me because whenever I leave the house I always have to double check that I've unplugged my tools! I'm very paranoid about leaving something turned on, so I love this feature.

The curling wand heats up within 20 seconds which makes getting ready super quick. The set also comes with a heat glove. I've never used one before, but I was surprised to see how much quicker I was able to do my hair with it. I section off my hair and spray it with a heat protectant before starting. I wrap my hair away from the face and hold it there for about 10 seconds.

I will continue wrapping the entire bottom section of my hair before moving on to the next section. I wrap the hair that frames my face away from my face, as mentioned above. However, once I am back further into the pieces I will alternate the direction of each curl to achieve a more natural look.

Once the bottom section of my hair is done, I will move onto another section of hair. I hold each curl for about 10 seconds to achieve tighter curls. However, if I want looser waves I will only hold it for about 3-5 seconds. That is how I did my hair in this post.

After I release each curl from the wand, I will catch it in my hand and hold it before letting it fall.

Once I am done with all of my hair, I will spray it with a hairspray and I'm ready to go! I like to leave my curls tight, because I know they will fall as the night goes on. For these pictures, I was getting ready for a wedding that was 40 minutes away from our house. I knew they would fall before the wedding started. If these are too tight for your preference, or if you don't have time to wait, I would recommend finger combing through your hair once done. Another option is to lightly pull on each curl after you release it from the wand to achieve a looser look.

I also love this wand because the curls really hold. Even after sleeping, my curls were still in tact and I was able to just leave them for the next day.

Additionally, I am impressed with how quickly I am able to do my hair with it. I always listen to music while getting ready, and it only takes me two songs to do my whole head! (Am I the only person who judges how long it takes to get ready, shower, etc. based off the number of songs that play haha?!) If you are in the market for a new wand, I highly recommend you look into the Irresistible Me Sapphire 8 in 1 Complete Curling Wand.
