Finish This...Hair edition

Oh goodness, it's been forever! I've been a terrible blogger these past few months, but I'm hoping I can get back in the swing of things...

Linking up this week with Nicole at ~Three 31~, as well as a few other lovely ladies for Finish This...

My daily hair routine consists of-It depends on the day...My hair is very long now, which I love, but it gets VERY oily, so I have to wash it everyday. Except for the oil though, I've been blessed with hair that pretty much does okay with a minimal amount of styling, because goodness knows, I have no hairstyling skills to speak of. 

Some days I will have showered the night before and went to bed with wet hair, so when I wake up, it's messy/wavy etc. I can then just wrap it around a curling iron a few times and go with that look. Other days, I shower in the morning, but don't have the time to blow dry, so it either goes in a low, messy bun or here lately, I've been trying this side, over-my-shoulder braid thing. My husband says it's cute. Some days, but more often than not, I'm doing really good and it's a blow dry straight and run a flat-iron over it for a second day. That's how I normally fix it if I'm getting ready to go somewhere, or I will blow-dry then take the time to curl with a curling iron, but my hair doesn't actually really hold curl all that well.

The best hair advice I’ve received-Shampoo is not a place in which you want to try to buy the cheapest brand. I don't really splurge on beauty products at all, except for my Bare Minerals makeup, but I make a point to at least by decent shampoo, none of that Suave stuff from Wal-Mart. My aunt told me that while she was in cometology school, and I can really tell a difference in my hair when I don't use the cheaper shampoo. Also, don't overdo it with the heat stuff. 

My hair idol is-I don't know...I love people with really long, thick, layered hair, just because that's how I want my hair to look. One day, maybe my hair will look like this...(I literally just googled long, layered, dark hair lol) This was the first result, but it's fantastic.
