I can't believe that 2017 is almost over! I feel like I just celebrated New Years, and now its rolled around again. This time of year is always bittersweet for me because 2017 was such a great year and its going to be hard to beat. But I'm excited for what's to come in the big two thousand and eight teen :)
This New Years I'm going for a more sophisticated straight hair look, with one side tucked behind the ear. I'm a bit of a perfectionist, so I like to give my looks a trial run before the big day. I used my new Vibrastrait iron from Beautopia to achieve this look, and it took me less than 5 minutes to straighten my whole head. This iron vibrates, which cuts down on the amount of pulling/tugging damage. I noticed much fewer flyaways and didn't have to do as many passes with the iron to get it pin straight. I think its safe to say that my old iron is going in the back of the drawer and this one is going to be my new go-to for 2018 because Vibrastrait can make gorgeous waves + curls as well. :)
