Easy Tutorial: CL 2ne1 Inspired Hair

Hey cuties! Today I have my first hair tutorial and it's something I've been doing a lot lately. It's inspired by CL in her music video for "The Baddest Female". My sister said that she liked this hairstyle and that I should shave my head to keep it forever. I'm not going to do that because I don't have the guts but it's the thought that counts. Anyway, this is actually really easy and quick. You guys are going to have to excuse my translucent eyebrows for a little bit longer, I'm currently trying to learn how to fill them in without looking really fake since I have really blonde hair. Plus, the lighting kinda washed out all the color I put into them. :( Does anyone have any tips for me?

Step 1: Separate your hair into two parts. Since my hair is really fine I only need to put up the hair on the crown of my head but anyone else might want to go by the top of your ears. Then spray some heat protectant, I'm using the Aussie Hair Insurance.

Step 2: Curl your hair. I like to keep the strands in these Little Bo Peep style ringlets when they cool because I found that it makes even curls. Then spray it with some hairspray.

Step 3: Let down the second layer and curl that the way you like it. You want to part your hair more than you usually do. My part is usually a little bit more to the left (my left) than in this picture. But for this hairstyle you want more volume on one side of your head.

Step 4: Brush back the hair from the top of your ear and pin it with some bobby pins. I like to twist it once so it will stay in place more. To get looser curls or waves, you want to lightly brush out your curls 

Here's what the end result is! This is great for second day hair if you use some dry shampoo and if you have really long hair this will look fantastic. I'm excited to wear this when my hair gets longer. This does work for straight hair if you are too lazy to curl your hair. Let me know if you like this or if you ever try it! See you next time! XD

Sorry I'm a bad boy ;)

 Hello cuties! Sorry I haven't posted in a while! My family is planning a lot of road trips lately so there isn't much time to try out new products and blog about them. But, I just got home from a four hour drive (hence why I'm only wearing jeans and a t-shirt) and found a package at my doorstep. It turned out to be the hat I ordered from Amazon! Do you recognize it?

If you guys read my Liebster Awards, then you'd know that I love Big Bang and this hat is a replica of the one that G-Dragon wore in the Bad Boy music video. Bad Boy and Fantastic Baby are the songs that originally got me into kpop. I remember freaking out about my driver's test and the only thing that could calm my nerves were those two songs. And you know what, I passed on the first try! 

This could not have come at a more convenient time. My hair is in an awkward stage right now and it really needs to be cut. Plus, when I nap in the car, it looks a little flat on the side I was sleeping on. There's nothing a hat can't fix!

Speaking of kpop, have you guys seen the dance version of Wonder Boyz song Tarzan? I'm addicted to it! I wasn't amazed by the drama version, but the dance version got me hooked. I know Martina from Eat Your Kimchi loves it, too and I trust her judgement. ;)

If you guys want to know where to get it, the link is here. What do you think? See you later! XD

Summer Music!

Hello everyone! This is my first music post! I've mentioned that I play the clarinet but you guys don't know what kind of music that I listen to out of music class and carry along with me in my ipod. First of all, I listen to a wide range of music, like a little bit of everything. But something that really catches my attention is something happy with a steady beat. Music is like coffee to me, if I don't listen to it in the morning, you better run away because I will not be pleasant to be around.

My dad got me these amazing new ihome headphones!

Male Singers

Most the music I listen to is sung by guys. I don't know why, maybe it's because musicians are sexy. ;) I remember being younger and refusing to like a song that had a boy as the main vocals (girl power!). Oh, how things change. . .

Island In The Sun- Weezer. This is the kind of song that I associate with the beach, soaking up the sun. My friend said the same exact thing when she found it on my ipod.

Hey Mama- Mat Kearney. Just a cute love song that gets stuck in your head. I love the rhythm in the background that sounds like clapping. It just gives it a more organic feel.

Restless Heart-  Matt Hires. This a song that I picture playing in the car on a road trip. Again, it's a cute love song, but this one is a little bit bitter. A really great heart-breaker induced tragedy.

Live Like A Warrior- Matisyahu. As it gets warmer, I get more into reggae. Don't worry, it's not crazy reggae. This particular song is just very motivating. You know those songs that makes you forget about what people think about you? Yeah, it's one of those songs.

Female Singers

Only one this time. I told you I'm not really into female singers.

I Love It (I don't care)- Icona Pop. My sister and I like to blast this in the car. Yep, we're those people. I don't really know why I like this song other than it's really fun.

Kpop!

You guys can thank my friends for this category. (If you guys ever find this, Hey! XD) I was recently introduced to B1A4 and I'm addicted! Their songs have been on repeat ever since.

Beautiful Target (Japanese Version)- B1A4. I don't know what it is about deep voices, but when I heard Baro, I knew I was going to love this group. In my opinion, the Japanese version of this song is better. The music video is more playful than the Korean version

What's Happening- B1A4. I found this music video because of Eat Your Kimchi. At first, I thought the Barbie and Ken masks were creepy, but the dancing kept me coming back.

Jeon Won Diary- T-Ara. Yes, they are a girl group, but they are one of the few exceptions. Another friend showed me the music video (the one where they're on a farm, not the dance version) and I thought it was catchy.

What do you guys think about kpop? Yay or nay?

Those are all the songs that I only recently listen to. I have a ton other songs that I absolutely adore but we don't have a lifetime to talk about it. Hope you guys liked this! Should I continue to do these posts every once in a while? What kind of music to you listen to?
