Bangs + Big Ears | My 2019 Hair Routine + Current Go-To Hairstyles

Hello, everyone and welcome back to my channel. I know it's been forever, since I filmed that this kind of video for you guys, so I'm throwing it back. We are definitely throwing it way back to the kind of old-school YouTube. Video in the bathroom. Do people do videos in their bathrooms anymore? I don't know, but we're doing that today, a couple things this bathroom is quite big, not bragging, I'm just it's a fact. There'S quite an echo and I don't know what to do about it and I'm really sorry. So the audio is probably not gon na be the best in this video. However, better than no hairstyle video am i right memory. Another thing is, I have a fan that kind of kicks on in here every so often so that's gon na be really annoying, but hopefully you guys won't have to deal with that. That'S a me problem, probably gon na be the last bathroom video that you see, but we're committed now and we are here and we're gon na do some hair today, I'm actually gon na show you guys, like my go-to routine as of recently ever since I got Bangs, essentially, I do have some pieces of my bangs and I'm letting it grow out. That'S why there's some longer bits kind of working their way towards being face framing, but right now, there's kind of awkwardly long. I'M gon na show you guys how I've been kind of styling my hair, to not only hide my big ears, but also to disguise these growing out pieces and just kind of the products that I use. The tools that I use on daily basis, if you guys, can get over the echo and just bear with me through this, then hopefully you learned something cool today about I don't know your hair or just I hope you get some ideas from what I do with My hair, or, if you're, just interested in seeing my routine, then great, so I just want to start by saying that my routine is fairly simple, being a hair stylist. I don't really like to put too much effort into my own hair as weird as that sounds. I feel like it's just kind of working from home - I don't know, but that doesn't mean that I don't want it to stay healthy and I don't want it to be. You know, shiny all those things, so this is kind of the things that I use daily. That help with that, let's start with what you're looking at right now I showered yesterday evening and let it dry completely before I went to bed and slept on it. I always make sure to comb my bangs out and forward so that my cowlick up here can lay down. I do use the beat Pravana chroma, silk, Vivid's color, protect shampoo and conditioner. Most of the time. I do have some other options in my shower as well. Like if I need a really good deep cleanse on my scalp, I will use the Paul Mitchell tea tree, color, shampoo and conditioner. I also just have a couple other options in there and then I also have a carrot: color color at Clem dition air. This just kind of keeps my hair tone to this coppery shade is my copper color fades. I didn't use this last time and you can kind of see that my ends are looking pretty yellow goldish and it just gives my hair that deposit of color without having to actually go through and color it all again. So I love this stuff, so much Zenda scheming, oh hi, baby girl, can't this say hi to the people, oh good time, because the fan just clicked on so you can hang out with us right now then immediately following a shower, I always go through and spray. It with this pure ology, colored, fanatic, multitasking, hair beautifier, says perfer perfecting color treated hair if you have to have 21 essential benefits. This is what it looks like by the way. There'S like a whole list of prime protect and perfect things on the back. You can kind of pause and read those if you want to I'm not going to list all 21 right now, but yeah a lot of good benefits. Ina spray, this in my wet hair, /, Dana pear as its drying. So then I wake up the next day. In my hair looks something like this: my hair is naturally pretty straight with a tiny, tiny bit of wave in it, but obviously not a lot. So I do have to kind of do a lot. I kind of have to do a lot to get it. To look the way that I want it to look, I know everybody's preferences are different, so if you don't want to go through all this trouble, you obviously don't have to I'm just posting this for the people that are interested. Sometimes I will use a heat protectant, but that is one of the benefits of this guy. So I don't bother if I sprayed this in and let my hair air dry, so I'm gon na go ahead and just show you guys with tools that I use the flatter that I use is the Paul Mitchell. Pro Tools Express ion style plus it works. Amazingly, like you guys, remember the old Remington one that I used to have after switching to this, it really made me realize how much I was missing, because that Remington one it was so bad. What I do with my Flatiron every single time, I'm doing my hair is, I always go around my face and just pull out all of my little baby hairs that have a little bit of wave next to my face I'll kind of just push, my bangs out Of the way for right now and then just grab this hair right in front of my ears and your squad are super close to my face so that I get all of those little baby hair waves out. I kind of just push my bangs out of the way is needed, but I'm gon na go on this side as well. Now the hair all around my face is nice and smooth down. Now I'm gon na deal with my bangs get all of the other hair out of the way. So now that I have my hair all pulled back, you can really see how thick my bangs are. So I'm actually going to just tie my hair back into a ponytail, so I can flat iron my bangs in sections, so I will just let a tiny thin layer down at a time and then bobby pin the rest back. This is just to make sure I don't miss any so what I'll do is I'll gather them together and Flatiron them straight forward. First, with just the slightest bend in the wrist, I wasn't going and then I will just do the side separately. Doing the same as thing not going like crazy with the curl, I just want to create a little bend now. These are some like 90s bangs, just a super wispy. I do want them to ultimately be a little bit thicker than this. Definitely, but it's not as thick as I have currently so I'm just gon na let down a little bit more and now I'm taking the whole section again, including the stuff I've already flat ironed and doing it all over again. So now I'm just taking that very last section of my fringe and flattening that separately, these pieces are and letting grow out or finally at a length that they don't look super strange if I leave them down we're gon na leave them down for right now. While I take care of the rest of my hair - but I just do want to let you guys know that on a daily basis, I do not leave them down. I really like to pin them up to just have the little bit of things out. You'Re gon na decide if you want to do a middle part side, part whatever. I usually just do like a slightly side part even with these bangs. I just prefer to side part on me, make sure that I don't have any tangles. If I do it, then I will just run through it with my wet brush. I love wet brushes. They just are so gentle on my hair and just go through tangles, so easily. Just make sure you're kind of brushing your hair a little bit consistently at least once a day, because it really does just help to overall a growth and general health of your scalp and hair. So much more than you realize. So. The next thing that I do is my hair: pretty much every single day is curl it. I love it to use a want to do that. This is the Paul Mitchell. Pro Tools Express ion unclipped, it actually unscrews and has different attachments. So you just have the long handle, and then you have like different sizes that you can kind of plug in. That'S why it's called the unclipped. I'M gon na use this one because it gives a little bit tighter curls, but there's still like those nice and beachy waves. Those curls that last amazing and wake up tomorrow and just rock my second day hair and not even have to redo it, which is my favorite thing in the world. So the way that I do curls is, I always split my hair down the middle down. The back just like I was gon na, do like a couple pigtails or something so then I kind of just start in the back. I feel my way around to just get like a decent sized section. You don't even really have to take it from your scalp. You can just kind of be like okay, well, that feels like a decent section and pull that out and curl that wrap your hair around it. It'S super easy. I have pieces that kind of go home. I don't worry about those. I actually like the texture that it gives at the end, when I have straighter ends, so I just let that and then I just dropped my crow behind me. The way that I tell that it's done is I just kind of gently touch my fingers on the thickest part. So there's like a journey at bulge of hair right here I was kind of wiggled. Ah and if that's hot then that means everything else. That'S kind of thinner, it's gon na be hot and it should stay so I kind of just throw them behind me. I don't touch them, I just let them cool down under formation and I'll. Let them do their thing and I just keep on going it's the next section that I'm feeling right there, even though it looks kind of fat. I feel the section itself and I can tell that it's not too big to curl and actually like what curls are coming from different parts of my head like higher and lower, so that it's just not as uniform. I don't know it depends on the look you're going for, but you'll see it. What I mean when I'm done. I don't know how to explain things. I mean you can kind of see what I'm doing. I do curl everything backwards away from my face, so you can tell that I am wrapping things all in one way, so I kind of just drop it back there. This is so easy once you actually get the hang of it. I know a lot of people are intimidated by curling loans because they just think they're hard to use it's honestly so much easier than using a traditional spring barrel iron or a Marcel you're, literally just wrapping your hair around something you're not having to fuss with a Clamp or anything, so I'm just going to keep doing that just curling all the curls away from my face. If the curl does look like it's gon na be too tight, you can always just like kind of pull on it as it's cooling down. That was create a looser wave. So now you can see the direct comparison of how much shinier and smoother my hair looks when I curl it versus just letting it dry. Naturally, the color looks more vibrant. It just looks so much better, so I just let it kind of sit while I curl the other side as well and cool down completely. Before I run my fingers through or anything, I am still curling all the curls back away from my face. I just had to change the direction because now I'm on the right side of my head, all right. So that's what it looks like at the stage a little bit overdone. Looking totally just cannot wait to run my fingers through this, but, as you can see, I do leave the last couple inches on my hair out to be a little bit straighter. So it's not like complete curls. All the way down just helps with that. More casual feel later on, once we do kind of comb everything out for right now, so I'm gon na let this side cool down. I always want to say dry completely. It'S cool! It'S dry already! You still know that your curls on this side of your head cool down before you run your fingers through all of it. So I was going to give us a few minutes and I will be right back. Let'S go ahead and just run our fingers through her hair, assuming you're doing this with me, I'm not really being careful about this. I really want to make sure I break up all those curls, so I'm just running my fingers through it completely. There will be some times when I do this and I see some curls that just you know, didn't hold up very well. So I'm just going to take this lock right here and reestablish the curl. Then I see that this curl kind of doing the same thing. There we go now. What I like to do is go through with a hair oil. I love the pas mitchell-lama pooi one, but this is just the one I've been using at home for ever now. I'M pretty sure I use this in a past video, even it's by the brand ask and it's just a smoothing and shine oil. So I just put a little bit in my hand - and I was honestly too much, but it's fine - we're just gon na rub it in really good warm up that product that product. Then I'm just gon na kind of throw my hair behind me and start rubbing that brew kind of like I was about to do a ponytail. I just kind of gathered all my hair and around the oil over the top and then I just go through and put it all throughout and then with the leftovers on my hands. I will just kind of run that over the roots and everything, but I'm not trying to like a plaster, my hair down, so I'll go back and fluff it up. I just want to smooth down any frizz, and I just have these kind of tousled curls that are just gon na get looser and looser throughout the day. If you want to add hairspray it, you totally. Can I honestly usually don't because my hair does hold curl fairly well, seeing as it's all been lightened before when I do use hairspray, I will know it's this pure ology style protect soft, finish hairspray. It has this little mr. situation, it works really well, it leaves you a nice like touchable curl and hold it's not like cuddling your hair, stiff and crunchy, or anything like that. Not only does it give you kind of that out of control, but it does kind of help separate your curls out a little bit to kind of like a texture spray would do so that your curls don't just like a lump together. So that's what my hair looks like after it's all curled, prepped and ready for a style. I cannot wait for the day that I can just rock my hair down completely again without these weird long at bang pieces, but because I still have these pieces growing out. There'S more, I have to do and also just more. I have to show you guys, because if this was it, you guys would be pretty pissed. So it's just essentially these corners that I'm pinning out, and that was too much. So what I do is, I kind of just go temple to Temple, meet right here and just take this small section or right behind my bangs, including the pieces that I might grow out and just have a little almost whale spout, but for adults I've been doing This hairstyle a lot because it holds back the pieces of bangs that I'm growing out, but it also just creates like a cute little once I have that fastened. I will just pinch that and pull this little section apart, so that it's just like a little poof behind my base. I just feel like this gives your hair a little extra something without taking away from the volume that you need on the sides to be able to hide your ears. That fan is gon na, be the death of me, but just having that little section up just gives you this little baby Pony that kind of creates the illusion they have more volume up top. This is just one of my go-to nurse tiles as of recently, and I have to include it because I've been wearing this hairstyle so much, but I'm gon na go ahead and take that rubber band out now, maybe just break it. It'S fine! Something really similar that I've been doing is I'll, just take a tiny bit more off with the sides and pull it up and just bobby pin instead of using the rubber band as long as you're making sure not to take any hair. You know from the very top of your head: that's falling and cascading over your ear. Then you shouldn't have any issues still hiding them. I just took a little bit more off of the side here. You can just look a little bit strange to only have that. Little thin section that I had before bobby pins - I don't know it just doesn't seem to work the same as when I have a rubber band if it were banded ripple bound, but I'll still do the same thing and kind of pull some pieces out. So it's a little bit more of a pouf and it just gives me a little bit of height up there flake away it's just like a cute, almost half up half down style without being like a full-on half foot path to half updo half updo, I'm a Hair stylist guys, can you believe it? I by no means think that these are like a new innovative like groundbreaking, hairstyles or anything. Obviously so many people have just done this before, but these, like, I said in the video title, are my current go-to hairstyles, and this is kind of what I've been doing once you've kind of done, the prep work and like done the curling and the smoothing and All of that, the hairstyles part is so easy if you're doing something. This simple, you can take that, as you will put your own twist on those kind of hairstyles where you just do maybe a little braid right here, you could do like a little braided crown. Basically, any style you can think of that just uses the tiny section of hair up here. Should it work out for anybody that is trying to conceal. You know their ears that stick out if you curl your hair and you make sure you the volume on the sides - and you just do a little bit up here - then you're still gon na have that volume, even though those happen, my pretty much only to go To hairstyles I've been wearing lately, there's another hairstyle that I have been wearing when I want to just wear my hair completely up, so you don't have to worry about paying your ears down or anything whether you want to do a high messy bun or a high Ponytail, whatever you want, I'm gon na go ahead and stick with a high ponytail today and then I'm also just going to pull some pieces out around my face. You can use a paddle brush, or you know just a normal comb or whatever to do this, but I just gently comb some pieces out around my face. Then I'm just gon na put a couple bobby pins where those longer pieces of my bangs are because they're not quite long enough to fit into the ponytail. Just yet, honestly guys I was so tempted to just kind of troll you a little bit with this video and just call it a 2019, buy it about big ears and just do normal hairstyles, with out like even considering that my ears stick out just treating them. Like they're completely normal, because I mean it is 2019, we should be normalizing this instead of hiding them. However, I understand that they're, probably at many of you that would just throw their hair up into a high ponytail like this and not feel comfortable whatsoever. Just like. I feel uncomfortable right now. I would be a lot more uncomfortable if I left my house like this, so I completely understand that and I'm not implying that hiding your ears is like a bad thing or that it's a good thing. It'S just it's kind of a weird spot for me so honestly, but she doesn't like teen vibe. It would be to just just leave like this right like who even cares about your big ears. It'S not that easy. So I'm gon na grab a half a headband and I'll be right back. Okay, so I've this cute little black braided a headband as you can see, it's quite thin. I'M gon na put this over my ponytail over everything and just put it over my neck here and then bring it up and set it kind of on the part right where my bangs are separated. I'M gon na put it right behind my ears. For now this trick does work the best when you have a bobby pin your hair color. I do not have orange bobby pins, so I'm just going to be using these kind of brownish brown ash ones, and basically you just have to pick your battles. If you don't want to have to wear a headband sitting over your ear like so then you can choose to just wear your hair up like normal, not care about your big ears or you can want a thicker headband. That kind of goes around and covers your ear completely. What I've been doing is just using like a small, thin headband like this and kind of sticking it right on the top of my ear to hold it down. Then I just take a bobby pin and put it right over my ear, like I said you have to kind of pick your battles. If this isn't the look that you're wanting to go for, if this isn't a look that you're wanting to give a shot, then you totally don't have to just show you guys kind of how I've been getting around the whole high ponytail in the summer situation, without Taking the time to pin my ears back with the tie trick that I've shown in other videos - and it's honestly really sturdy, this may work for people that maybe the tide trick didn't work for you. You can just put the headband right over your ear, move it back as far as possible. So it's almost like hiding the very end of my ear and then I just stick a bobby pin right above my ear and going behind it. So sorry, so you can see that's my ear when it's not being held down by anything and then that is the ear that is being held down, so it just doesn't stick out on the top as much I feel like. This is a lot less noticeable than having my ears stick out so yeah. Once I have this headband on and the bobby pins are in place. I can just like freely move about without my ears poking out, like I'm, not even worried about them budging. I think the most important thing is just to make sure you're really putting the bobby pin right next to your ear, which obviously may be a little bit suspicious. But I would prefer this than having my ears showing and honestly so many people bobby pin their headbands to stay in place. So it doesn't even look strange to me, so I don't even correlate it with. You know maybe somebody's trying to hide their big ears, but because I do have it laying over my years I could see people, maybe thinking that my mom, maybe she doesn't like her ears and wants to pin them down whatever and that's totally fine. People can think that, because it's the truth and I love having a headband on that's securing my ears down because I can just be like I'm normal also, if you're somebody who's always contemplated getting bangs and whatever your reason may be. Maybe you don't like your forehead. Maybe you don't like your eyebrows and you just want a little something, maybe just like having hair around your face and face free me. I say go for it because so many people told me not to every time I asked my friends or fellow stylist or anything for opinions. If I should do it, they all were like. Oh no, don't do it you're gon na regret it. You look so good with going here like I love your long things framing and everything, and then one night I just decided to do it. I'Ve had a couple regrets, like the whole growing out. Situation has been annoying but as far as getting bangs, I have no regrets because my forehead is covered. Now I have the giant pore on my forehead that I've always been self-conscious about let's covered now, so I'm just like an advocate for bangs. Now, whenever anybody comes in and they're questioning, whether they want to get bangs, I try to talk them into it, because I just think there's so much fun. It'S such a nice way to switch up your style and even if you do decide to grow them out, you know it doesn't take a super long time. The pieces that were way shorter than this are already like down to here, and it's only been like a couple months and they were like up here so they're gon na be face framing in no time if you've been thinking about doing bangs - and you have big Ears, just do it and be my twin: I've been really trying to like talk and move my head as much as possible, so you guys can see that this really is sturdy. I freaking love it. I could probably even like go swimming with just a headband on and not even worry about it. I would definitely need a bang trim, though, because as soon as these get wet they're like in my eyes, well guys those three hairstyles are really all I got for you today. I really wish I could have thought out more, but these are it just might go to current hairstyles. I'Ve really just been focusing on quick and efficient, and I don't know casual. So I haven't been doing anything. Super crazy. Headbands are seriously year for us. Girls with big ears work guys, I mean maybe like those athletic bands, I've never seen guys like rocking actual head bands, but I'm not saying they couldn't. Obviously, if you guys have any tips and tricks that you've learned about how to hide your big ears, let me know down in the comments down below just in case it's anything that I haven't heard about before.
