New Hair! Who Dis??? // Styling Curtain Bangs

Hey y'all, it's me serena and welcome back to style with serena. I just wanted to talk a little bit about my change, which is my hair and um. It'S a big deal to me because i have had basically the same hairstyle for oh. I don't know how many years i've just i've, had a bob and it has varied in length. I'Ve had you know all the way up to my chin with it really, you know stacked. In the back i had years ago, i had the a-line bob where it was really a lot longer in front and then shorter and back and but i have kept some variation of that bob silhouette for a long, long time and um. And so i was just ready for something different and i had been letting my hair grow out. It was rather short, so i had not had a trim since february of this year and it's june now mid-june, and so i went into my hairdresser and i told her - i wanted something just newer fresher, not so structured as that bob was. My hair has a lot of natural wave in it anyway and um so sometimes, especially in the summer. It gets really hard trying to smooth that out, um and into a nice sleek bob because of the humidity and everything where i live so um. She decided to give me some curtain bangs, and i think she cut a few little layers here in the back and then blended it all in. So i was just going to give you guys a little rundown of how i styled it. Today is my first day. Styling it myself so um. I just gon na show you what i did and i think it turned out: okay for the first time that i've done it by myself. So um, i just blew it out and um didn't really use a round brush much a little bit to get some of the you know weird kinks out, but just blew it out. You know with a hair dryer, and then i took my my bangs section right here and um, just one velcro roller, that's all i used. I sprayed a little a tiny bit of hairspray on it and rolled this back away from my face, so my hair was going this way and um and i just let it set there the whole time. I was doing my makeup and everything else. My bangs were just pushed back wrapped back around this curler roller and it's just a pink velcro roller that you can buy in a pack. You know walmart walgreens or wherever i've had the same ones forever, but they work great so and then um after i did my makeup and everything the rest of my hair down here. I just took my flat iron because i don't have a curling iron. I guess that's big enough for the right size for what i wanted to do, and i just did some um some loose waves using my flat iron and this flat iron is well used and well loved. It is by hot tools - and i got this a while back at ulta. You can see that this is kind of scratched off where i've used it so much. But i love this and i think it's a one inch um flat eye, straightening iron and what i like about it. It'S got a digital, uh, readout on it and it's temp. You can adjust the temperature. So it's not just on off. You know super hot or just two settings, you know warm and extra, hot or whatever. You can actually set the degrees on here and so i'll. Try to find this one or one like it, and link it down below because um. I really enjoy this flat iron and of course you can use it to straighten your hair. But i just took little sections of my hair and clamped this onto it and then just twisted it like this away from my face until it made just kind of these little waves. Didn'T want curls just little waves and i did that all around my head and then i sprayed it a little bit. I used this wax blast from redken and then i just barely you know, ran my hands through it to break it up a little bit, and then i took the wax blast and just kind of around the bottom, and this stuff is really good for um. If you want like a pc, look and that's why i used it just to break it up a little bit and i used a little bit on my bangs and um, but yeah it's great for giving kind of that pc messy. Look the wax blast by redken and then, when i was done, i hit it with my hairspray that i forgot to bring in here with me, but it's the l'oreal elenet that you saw on my video about drugstore, walmart health and beauty, favorites and i'll link that Up here somewhere, but that video i'll link it but yeah, that is my new look and my youngest daughter macy. I asked her what she thought about it and she said i can't decide, because i can only remember seeing you with one hairstyle, and this is so different. I don't know what to think so, but my husband really likes it. So i just wanted to show you guys, since this is different from you know the way you've seen me with my hair. I just wanted to talk you through it and i wanted to give a big shout out to noel and joey at jody. Sorry at salon, noel noel, is the only person. I trust in this town. Cutting my hair she's been cutting my hair for years, and i love her, and so thank you for giving me a new fresh look. I love it and i look forward to letting this grow out some and having long hair again and something that i can style different ways. So thank you for joining me today and i hope those gave you some tips or maybe, if you are thinking about breaking out of your hair rut or whatever, if you're in one to just go for it and don't be, don't be afraid, don't uh don't cling To to a style just because that's what you're comfortable with, if you want to change up your style, don't don't be afraid to do it find someone that you trust with your hair and just let them guide you and keep you looking up to date and current.
