This my friends, is everything I need for my hair. You recommended me the Dyson blow-dryer and I trusted you. Now I’m returning the favor and recommending you this a-m-a-z-i-n-g Dyson Airwrap styler!

This Limited-Edition Copper Airwrap styler includes:

Hair dryer
Prepares hair for styling using a fast but diffused airflow. Engineered for all hair types, it’s designed to dry hair to the ideal moisture level (80% dry) before using the curling barrels.

Soft smoothing brush
Engineered to add body and volume to limp, flat hair while creating a smooth, blow dry finish. Ball-tipped bristles allow for increased tension to help keep hair aligned to the brush.

Firm smoothing brush
To create a straighter style with less frizz. Engineered to tame and smooth unruly, thicker, coarser hair, with firm straight bristles to help create tension and reduce tangling.

Round volumising brush
Ideal for limp, flat hair. The Round volumising brush directs air into the hair to give body, and the bristles create tension to shape hair as it dries.

Curling barrels 30- and 40mm
The motor within the tool spins to create an area of high pressure at the top of the styling barrel. Dyson Airwrap Complete comes with 30 and 40mm barrels in regular size whilst Dyson Airwrap Long comes with longer barrels (20mm sold separately).

What I love the most is that I can create looks that are almost impossible to create with other tools, like for example round brushed blow out. It’s my favorite hair style for everyday but almost impossible to do yourself since it requires both a blow-dryer and round brushing at the same time.  Not a problem anymore!Dyson specialty is its technology that produces high pressure air instead of extreme heat. This means that it’s perfect for wet-to-dry styling, making it fast and easy to use for everyday life as well as less damaging for the hair.

Because all styling tools include air instead of heat, all hairstyles created with these tools become soft and natural looking, which is exactly what I love!

In case you feel like splurging on a Christmas gift for someone you love or yourself for that matter, this box genuinely gets my warmest recommendations.

3 x easy hairdos

hair,20 November 2019

Maksettu kaupallinen yhteistyö Elnett:n kanssa// Paid collaboration with Elnett

The party season is here, and for me that means more photo shoots, events and gettogethers where I want to look a bit extra glam. In this post, I will share three easy styling tips for the hair.

I’m sure you’ve all heard about Elnett and some of you might be more familiar with it than others, but I’ve personally used it and loved it for many years. It is the perfect everyday/ every look hairspray, because the formula is very lightweight, has a nice scent and doesn’t leave the hair sticky, hard or feeling dry. (Inside information alert! Elnett hairspray, is also one of those products that most hair stylist always have in their work kit at photo shoots/back stage)

Anyways, I will now demonstrate three easy hairdos and the products that were used when I got pampered a couple weeks back. Best of all is that I wanted to get hairdos that can be made three days in a row, because my hair has most volume when it’s newly washed and blow-dried and stays up better after a day or two.

The day started at 10 am at hair salon Blend and let me just say that I love when I get to be part of photo shoots that are arranged by someone else but myself and Juuli. Breakfast at set and the possibility to only focus on being in front of the camera is pure joy. Usually, I’m all over the place ironing, checking the hair and makeup and going through briefs, while trying to coordinate everything at once, hehe.

The first look Style is all about volume. I love volume and feel at my best when my hair is fluffy and big. For maximized volume with a soft feel, we used Elnett Extravagant Volume. I love that my hair moves naturally while it looks thick and full!

For the second day look we wanted to create an Unstyled look that’s still festive and fun. We just brushed out the hair and used a flat iron and styled it with a simple necklace that can of course be any necklace. I really loved this idea, since it’s just a more glamorous version of the tucked in turtle neck hairdo ;). For this look, we used Elnett Precious Oil hairspray. Perfect for dry hair and ends since it contains argon oil and is suitable for blow-drying and hot styling tools.

Last but not least, day three: Restyle. Day three is a hair up must for me. My hair has strong whirls, therefore the dirtier my hair gets, the stronger the whirl in the back of my head shows. Whenever I put my hair up and want a strong hold, I always spray all over my hair first, and then I brush it all back and style it. This way, I get all of my baby hair in place and the hairdo looks sleek and polished. For this last look, my hairstylist of the day Laura created a very festive up-do by using Elnett Extra Strong hairspray. The formula has a very strong hold but doesn’t make the hair hard or wet looking. By the end of the day, my hair still felt natural and soft and was easy to brush out. 

Wishing you nothing but good hair days for the upcoming party season!
