Beauty Discovery!

As I write this, I'm almost giddy with excitement. Literally, ecstatic. As a super straight-haired gal, I'm always on the quest for secret hair weapons that will give me volume, waves, curls, anything at all more interesting that stick-straight strands. And for the last solid two years or so, I've stayed true to my ghd flat iron to curl my hair.

Now I still love my ghd, but today I received a new life-changing styler to test out and I have to admit, I am falling for it fast.




The Sultra Bombshell curling iron is actually clipless, which makes for really easy, really fast hair twisting and twirling around the super-hot rod. Wear a heat-resistant glove to protect your fingertips and work your magic without worrying about weird kinks and clamps ruining your curls. It heats up in seconds and gives you a head of fabulous, beachy, bouncy, gorgeous, sorta-messy, sexy curls that I seriously dream about.
Think Kate Hudson hotness, and that's just about what I've managed to create effortlessly during my first trial run tonight. If I keep practicing, I'm pretty sure I'll be able to pull off red carpet-ready hair in a moment's notice.

$130 at Sephora, and I swear to you, worth every penny.

GHD Ceramic Styling Iron




Okay, so $205 is a little steep for a (bright pink!) hair appliance...but, this styler by UK-basked GHD will transform your life! I have used many a hair appliance in my time (blame it on my naturally stick-straight hair combined with my 'bigger is better' Texan upbringing mentality) in an effort to create Jessica Simpson-like volume on a daily basis, and have tried every product under the sun to keep my hair from going flat, but to no avail. With a little practice, this ceramic miracle worker flawlessly transforms my hair into everything I have ever dreamed of (and in no time at all!) The ceramic plates seal the cuticle and create shine, and best of all, the style actually holds all day long.

As if that weren't convincing enough--I have witnessed many a pro stylist use the GHD styler backstage at fashion shows to create everything from poker-straight locks to wild child-worthy curls. So no matter what style you're striving for, this iron is your new secret weapon.

One more plug: the entire GHD product line is truly phenomenal & I urge you to try it out! My picks? Sea Spray for Matte Waves and the Conditioning Mist for detangling.
Available at Sephora.com.
