Texas Style

As my first week in Texas has come and gone, I have noticed the southern charms of style and beauty in the lone star. My best friend that I am staying with has introduced me to the method of the madness: big hair. Born with the thickest of thick, I never felt the need to tease and contort my locks. However, as if the heat has gone to my head, I have become obsessed with this Texas way!

Alex and I on our first night out. 

The teasing is truly a process.

Step 1: either straight or curl hair (with curlers preferably)
Step 2: take top sections in both the back and sides to tease
Step 3: hair spray the underside of each section
Step 4: use a comb to tease the heck out of each section
Step 5: more hair spray, duh!
Step 6: repeat on each side
Step 7: use fingers to manage the massive puff of hair, tame

Then, throughout the night, stick fingers in hair to revitalize the poof you created hours before.

*notice the teased portion in the back

I have a feeling I am really going to like it here. Whether I leave in July or decide to remain, I will take this Texan technique with me. xx
