It looks less damaging than a regular blow dryer. It might be worth it to some people who blow dry a lot. I like to wet set, though. It's hot where I live. Wet hair in rollers or pincurls feels great.

[@TeenDream888]

@@daryannolan8682 I think she's going to kill in the role, I just think Disney didn't respect her and threw her in a role instead of making a movie around her, which she totally deserves. They sort of threw scraps at her and said here's the chance of a lifetime to be a Disney princess, so of course she took it. In a way, I think she's being used, but regardless, it is what it is and we'll have to wait and see how the movie turns out.

The Bardot bouffant with curtain bags is my go to hairstyle. I sleep in rollers or pin curls and then use a bunch of hairspray or volumizer at the roots with my head upside down. I texturize and mess up the rest with aloe vera gel or matte pomade, lifting up pieces of hair and using flexible hairspray for extra volume and craziness. using a rat in the bouffant is really helpful to avoid the breakage. I don't know why I'm telling you this. You know how to do hair!

[@AetherIdol]

Tell me! I'm TERRIBLE at doing hair!

[@bodyofhope]

I used to do the same look all through high school in the 90's! Same aloe vera gel and tipped my hair upside down for that volume lol. A little flat iron helps it hold for dayz! Great look 👯‍♀️

[@lavendermenace8078]

Honestly one of the best sponsors in a video I have ever seen. She is so professional and honest. I feel like if more people were like this when brands approach them that ads in videos would actually work. To be fair though I think Rachael is a very genuine person and that does come across in her videos. Congrats on the sponsor girl you deserve that money

[@rachelmaksy]

That means so so much to me thank you 😭 I was worried this came off as too commercially so I'm so glad to hear that!

Blow drying your hair upside down helps give volume without teasing

[@rachelmaksy]

Ooo good to know! I'm very new at using a blow-dryer so any tips help hehehe

[@gothicvenus]

@@rachelmaksy I've been doing it for years to add some volume to my very straight hair. When I do my pin curls on the top of my head i do then with my head upside down, it weird but works for me

[@bodyofhope]

Agreed! If you have a natural wave or curl like I do, you can use a brush. You mainly want to dry your crown upsidedown. (From the Dr. Seuss hair styling book 😂)

[@blueberry4345]

[@philinaweddington4077]

I'm so happy for you getting a sponsorship!!!! A couple of ideas to make your hairstyling easier: you can use a smaller hair rat and also, as you're drying it, pin those sections to small cardboard tubes such as frozen juice containers or toilet tissue tubes.

[@raleighwooddriftwoodmanor]

Re:THRIFTING --I know that Goodwill has a social stigma, but its the best way to go on Textiles, and there IS A TRICK TO IT. You really have to make a list of them, go to all of them FIRST THING IN THE MORNING (all the good stuff is gone by 11 am), Etc. DONT DAWDLE looking in the jackets + bags, fly to the next one on the list for TEXTILES. There is always a STANDARD SIZE for curtains, so if you know 1 panel is 4 yrds, you will always know what you are getting. GW typically is SEASONAL so timing is everything!! There is a large 'Linen Bin' (or 3) at the back, typically. The GW usually sorts out anything dirty or stained, those go elsewhere or in the trash, so there is a very good chance of finding EXCELLENT linens, including silk pottery barn curtains, printed sewing remnants (and name brands!), 100% Linen curtains, huge white lace tablecloths, large wool pieces (in winter), etc. They also sell ROLLS (look around, those tend to be propped against the wall, you have to LOOK) of donated fabric. Sometimes the odd treasure (last summer I found a 7 foot Belgian Tapestry for 4$). PRICES: All unlined curtains at GW are 3.50$ per pair (NOT PER PEICE, don't let the idiots who work there rip you off). If they are really super long or are thermal, they may charge them as drapes which are 5$. Large Jacquard Bed Throws often may also be found, and I have rescued those in immaculate condition and simply used a seam ripper to take them apart. Any blanket, quilt, comforter costs 5.50$ but : sometimes the print is so gorgeous, especially for brand name brocades, its worth it and you do get the double sided length. Typically single pieces from any bin (including the Linen Bin) are about 1.50$ ea (it varies by store). My suggestion is that you pick up a sturdy plastic storage shelf from Lowes (or shop your local yard sales) and stuff all the linens folded and clean, into that. Trying to store them in plastic boxes or bags takes ALOT OF SPACE. You would be surprised how much stuff you can fit, folded, into a utility shelf. RE: GW - fair warning, I have found that the GW employees typically have less than a highschool ed and are not 'readers' (cough cough). For example, if they have grad highschool, they may not have taken the SAT. Etc. Consequently, assuming they speak English as a first language (if you are lucky) ; they probably are not 'genius' level in reading the cart menu posted, or knowing one thing from another. Do not allow the unwed mothers or whomever (its typically a fairly motley crew) to RIP YOU OFF because they are too dumb to know the price of things, or to know what is from a bin (or not). Just take what is in your basket out slowly : one thing and a time and TELL THE EMPLOYEES WHERE YOU GOT IT AND WAHT IT IS. (Slowly). This prevents mistakes and disputes, or double charging. Good luck: its a bit of an adventure, but can yield some treasures if you are diligent! And FYI : If you have a Joanns Fabric Store close by you, USE THE ADS to keep track of when the SALES ON PATTERNS ARE. The sale price typically drops to 2$ or less, about once a month. You have to READ THE AD to know that.

Awww thank you so so much sweetest!!

[@persimmonlipz]

This hairstyle suits you. I love BB too. You look lovely. As one who knows...I would instruct you to do the bangs as you did...curling under as you did...but for the finishing touch drying you'll want to take the very center of the bang (a 3 inch section) and direct the ends backward rather than down...rolled on the brush that ends up sitting on the roots, called "on base". This gives lift where you want it to roll with brush on base. Doing this will give a more preferred "swoopie-bang" effect. ;) Love your videos and get a kick out of your talking dog "thought bubbles" too...so cute. Keep up your sewing...you're going to gain knowledge and even more skill if you do.

[@michelleross9782]
