I torture my hair. I color it, highlight it, heat style it every day; I have hair extensions. I basically put it through the ringer and expect it to look beautiful each and every day. I am often amazed that I can get my hair to look the way I want it to, much less beautiful with all that I put it through.

I like the heat and love the summer weather, but I could do without the humidity. It’s hard to look or feel your best when it feels 100+ degrees outside. It might even be difficult for some when it starts to feel 80+ degrees or even less.

Beauty can take on a life of its own when you are trying to get through the heat. I change up my routine quite a bit in the warm weather. I’m not just talking self-tanners and lighter, summery shades. I am talking about products that keep my sun-drenched skin hydrated, hair frizz-free, and anything and everything that I can find to keep makeup from melting off.

I’ve always been hair-obsessed but even more so since receiving a certain hair tool for Christmas. I swear I am spending hours in the bathroom playing with my hair.

One thing I noticed when I started spending so much time on my hair was that it was looking dull; it was in need of some major hydration. In search of new products, I went.

As luck would have it, I was given the opportunity to partner with TRESemmé® and I jumped at the chance, especially when I found out about the new Botanique Hemp Hydration products at CVS.

What’s your stay-at-home style… Are you a messy bun kind of girl or are you into a chic ponytail? Do you still like to glam up your hair? Have you been wearing “real clothes” with buttons and zippers, dressy on the top, pj’s on the bottom or do you prefer a set of trendy sweats?

I am all of the above in one way or the other. For months it was a messy bun and trendy sweats. Then I started to sort of get it together with dressy on the top and sweats or pj’s on the bottom. Lately, I am more real clothes and real hairstyles more days than not, but it’s all that I like to call my own “stay-at-home-casual-chic”.

As the seasons change, I like to change things up - like my hair. Not only do I opt for new styles, but I look for new products, too. Whether I decide to go all out and really style my hair for a video call or stick with my everyday classic ponytail, I know that I can use hair care products from TIGI at Target to get the look that I want.

I’ve got a new focus this year; being kind to myself and making more time for ME. Life has been busy — very busy, but I have been taking some time to work out and get back to eating and drinking clean. It makes such a difference in how I feel overall.

I love when New York Fashion Week rolls around. I’ve always been into watching the trendsetters and style makers hit the runways to share their freshest, fiercest looks. Translating the runway to real life can prove difficult when it comes to the fashion trends, but with beauty there are ways to recreate the looks from the pros. With help from TRESemmé at CVS, it’s easier than you think.

The time after the holiday break and when we are in the dead of winter seems like the longest to me. The long, cold days are just dreary, aren’t they?
