MIAMI SWIM WEEK WITH TRESemmé PART 2

To say the weather in Miami was misbehaving, is to say nothing at all. Sure it was hot, but I can honestly tell you, combined with 100% humidity the blazing heat is really something. It is precisely the kind of wether that makes you want to abandon everything in favor of taking a nice long soak in the pool and staying there till sundown. But I had people to meet and shows to attend since as I have previously mentioned, I partnered with TRESemmé to attend Miami Swim Week this year, so  spending most of my time underwater was not an option:)



As part of this collaboration, I got my hair styled daily and I can't say enough about what a wonderful experience it was and how much I appreciate TRESemmé's Perfectly un(Done) line of products! You see, from the moment I stepped off the plane, I had what I would consider pretty legitimate concerns about my hair staying in tact given the weather in Miami. Partially, because my make-up melted off my face within 5 minutes of walking out of the airport and my hair did exactly what it  always does in extreme humidity ( a half curly, half straight, frizzy mess which can be described best as a homage to a bird's nest ) but mainly because my poker-straight fine hair doesn't hold hairstyles very well in perfect weather, let alone in 100% humidity:) Luckily, I was wrong! I was very, very, wrong! Not only did my hair behave ( no frizzy mess ), the hairstyles held up beautifully throughout the day and much to my delight looked just as well hours after I got them done! And so, since I am sure most of you are just as committed to fighting frizz as I am and have an appreciation for long-lasting voluminous hairstyles, I thought I take this opportunity to talk about exactly what my TRESemmé stylist did and which products he used on me.






For Mara Hoffman presentation, I chose to go with a fun little cobalt blue number, so I wanted a hair-style that would be equally fun, flirty and girly. To complement this look, we decided to go with voluminous, textured waves with straight ends.

1. Once again, I started by washing my hair with TRESemmé Perfectly un(Done) Shampoo followed with TRESemmé Perfectly un(Done) Conditioner.
2. To add body to my hair, the stylists applied about 3 pumps of TRESemmé Perfectly (un)Done Wave Creation Sea Foam to damp hair, distributed evenly throughout the entire head and blowdried my hair straight.
3. Next, the stylists curled medium-sized sections with a flat iron to create bouncy, textured waves rather than ringlets.
4. Once my hair was curled, the stylist applied a few spritzes of TRESemmé Perfectly (un)Done Sea Salt Spray and scrunched the waves for a sexy, tousled texture.
5. He finished the look with TRESemmé Perfectly (un)Done Ultra Brushable Hold Hairspray.

I chose a beautiful lace two-piece set to wear to MIKOH presentation. Since the outfit had a slight romantic reference, I wanted a hair-style that would complement this look. I also wanted something a little more effortless and easy to help downplay the dressiness of the ensemble. And so, we decided to go with one of my favorite hairstyle ever: soft, beachy waves! To re-create this look, you can repeat steps 1 & 2 from the style above, but use a large­-barrel curling iron to create soft waves instead of the flat iron and finish with TRESemmé Perfectly (un)Done Ultra Brushable Hold Hairspray for all­-day hold.
