3 Steps to Getting real BIG Beach Hair

After a day on the beach! 

After a day on the beach! 

One reason why I LOVE being in the tropics is due to the fact that I NEVER have a bad hair day. Achieving big requires minimal work - it truly is no fuss! By following these three easy steps you too can achieve BIG hair on vacation (or any place hot, breezy and humid)! 

  1. Start by clarifying hair to remove those stubborn impurities. I don't use much product on my hair so clarifying for me is simply using a shampoo with sulfate. Next, deep condition with a good conditioner, my current favorite: Mielle Organics Babassu Oil & Mint Conditioner, makes my hair so easy to detangle!
  2. Here is where little product and little manipulation go a long way. Apply a palmful of Aussie's Moist Conditioner using your fingers to ensure that every strand is coated. *Resist the temptation to finger curl and perfect each strand! (I struggle with this). 
  3. Finally, head to the beach! Let your hair air dry in all of it's natural splendor. The combination of the humidity in the breeze and the salt in the air will swell your hair to its highest heights!
