Tutorial: TRESemme Perfectly (Un)Done Curls

{A big thank you to TRESemme via Mode Media for sponsoring this post.  As always, all opinions are my own.}

Here is quite the change in my typical daily post, and I’m so excited to share it with y’all.  As many of you know, I have pin straight hair.  It barely curls {but really, the curls instantly fall out}, and you may have remembered me talking about my hair ‘chop’ back in November.  I cut over 8 inches of my hair, mostly because I needed a change, but also so that my hair would maybe hold curl better.  I was pretty saddened to find out that my hair curled only slightly better, but still eventually fell out over the course of an hour.  After that, I kind of gave up on curling my hair.  It seemed like a waste of time, until I came across the TRESemme Perfectly (un)Done Collection.  I decided to go all in and get the shampoo, conditioner, salt spray {instead of the salt mousse}, and the hairspray.

 I’ve tried many salt sprays before, in hopes that it would give my hair some texture to hold the curl a little better, but I found them all ‘sticky’ {if that makes sense}.  They made my hair ‘gritty’ where it was almost too hard to curl and work with.  However, TRESemme’s Perfectly un(Done) Sea Salt Spray definitely did not do that.  It gave my hair enough texture to give me something to work with, but it didn’t end up feeling gritty at the end of it.

 Today, I’m showing y’all a step-by-step guide on how to achieve the perfectly undone ‘romantic wave’, especially for those of you with straight hair, using this TRESemme collection.

1) Use the TRESemme Perfectly un(Done) Shampoo & Conditioner.  {I brushed my hair out and towel dried it just a little bit.}

2) Spray the TRESemme Perfectly un(Done) Sea Salt Spray all over your hair…and I do mean all over.  I was extremely generous with this since I have straight hair.

3) Blow dry your hair until it is 80% dry {or so}.

4) Taking small sections, twist your hair tightly around your finger and blow dry that twisted strand.  Do this until all of the twisted sections of your hair are complete.  {For those of you with curly hair, this will probably be enough to form a curl.  However, I went a little further to get more of a curl.}

5) Touch up some of the curls with a curling wand of your choice.  I used a 1-inch curling wand.

6) Run your fingers through your hair or brush some of the curls out.  I usually tease the crown of my head, but didn’t see the need to after using these products.

7) Finish up by lightly spraying your hair with TRESemme Perfectly un(Done) Hairspray.

8) You’ve got some romantic curls!

I was so surprised at how long these perfectly undone curls lasted! {I’ve never had curls that lasted this long.}  I also didn’t even need to tease my hair or use any extra product for volume, because these products already provided that.  This salt spray is clearly my new best friend.  It was the first thing I packed in my bag for my trip to Florida this week.  Oh, and the best part is that these curls on the second day are great for a perfectly undone boho wave hairstyle.

  1. I've already got naturally wavy/thick hair, so while I don't need salt spray – it's definitely a lifesaver on those "too clean" of hair days.

There’s not a day that goes by when I don’t feel so blessed to be Jordan’s wife. He is my everything. These photos and video are the sweetest reminder of our love for one another. So, grab a cup of coffee, pull up a seat, and try not to bawl your eyes out (because I know we did). Every time we look through our photos and watch our video, we cry the happiest tears.

The Proposal

It’s crazy what can happen in a year. I met the love of my life and the rest is history. I was having a hard time ending this post, because frankly, I think I could talk about that evening forever. Then I realized that this post doesn’t have an ending, but instead, a beginning. Thank you so much for all of the love, excitement, and gratitude.
