BEAUTY BAR: Au Natural

We all have a routine when it comes to getting ready in the morning. It’s easy to fall into a simple hair and makeup routine that we are used to. Throw in rising temperatures, humidity and the unpredictable weather in the Midwest, and your whole hair care routine can be challenged. This Fashionista owns her natural curls, but knows how to tame her thick mane by keeping it natural and voluminous in the warm weather.

With the end of the school year and carefree days among us, spring is the perfect time to switch up your everyday beauty and fashion look. Going natural with hair or makeup is a fast growing trend, and girls everywhere are ditching their straighteners and curling irons, like this Fashionista. Starting with wet hair, she spritzes leave-in condition over her curly locks to add smoothness and control its frizz. Next, she adds a small amount of a sea salt based foam to lock in the natural curls, and give her locks an overall bouncy feel. Then, she lets her hair air-dry and it is ready for the day!

Natural, loose curls give this Fashionista’s look a light and airy vibe. Her bohemian-printed light wash jeans and embroidered black crop top complement the flow of her natural curls. Taking a bold move, this Fashionista rocks a sun and moon choker. She completes her look with black fringe sandals, which adds to the boho-inspired look.

If there’s one thing you can learn from this Fashionista, it’s to take the plunge and be confident in your natural hair. Letting your hair fall naturally is not only healthier, but can save you time when you’re getting ready in the morning.

What’s on the BEAUTY BAR: To keep your natural locks under control in the warm weather, start with a leave-in conditioner spray after showering, and follow up with a weather controlling mousse to add bounce and volume. Air-dry or lightly blow dry with a diffuser to get your desired look and you’re ready to go!
