Save or Splurge: Dry Shampoo

I hope everyone had a lovely three day weekend. Mine would have been perfect if it were not for this awful freezing weather that is plaguing NYC. I do have to say my Valentine's Day was probably one of my best in recent years. My good friend threw a brunch for all of our closest friends and then we saw Kingsman that night. If you are a fan of action/ spy movies, you will LOVE Kingsman. It was highly entertaining. Also, if you missed the SNL 40th special, you must watch it for some truly hilarious moments. I won't give anything away.

Now this is not my typical save or splurge, but I figured not everyone wants to spend tons of money on their beauty routine and little items add up fast. I have been trying all the dry shampoos from both drug and higher end stores to find the best ones that hide oil and keep hair feeling fresh (there is nothing worse than a dry shampoo that makes your hair feel like straw). The winners hands down are Batiste and Drybar.


Both made it impossible to tell when I had not washed my hair, which is a HUGE feat for me since my hair gets oily very quickly. I will say the Drybar dry shampoo is slightly stronger since I am able to get away with not washing my hair for two days in a row. With Batiste, my hair would look a bit oily be the end of the second day. I highly recommend both to anyone looking for a new dry shampoo.

Style Files: Hair Scarves

Blame Dolce & Gabbana Spring 2013 runway for making me obsessed with hair scarves. I think hair scarves are such a fun way wear your hair or hide the fact you did not wash your hair. I'm definitely going to be wearing a scarf in my hair this spring and summer. Not to mention, Daisy in The Great Gatsby has been sporting a hair scarf in the previews to the movie. If I was a betting person, I would say hair scarves are going to be the biggest trend this summer.

Style Files: Hair

I am long overdue for a haircut. I'm thinking of cutting my long hair into something fun and modern like the above styles. Short hair seems so freeing after having my hair be long for awhile. And spring is always a time for change...
