Living Proof Challenge: How do You Hide a Bad Hair Day?

hi super great this is my bad hair day as you can see she has a mind of her own so what I'm going to do is I'm going to use the altar no hair bomb put it in my hair and this wave is from having my hair in braids overnight but if I were to go out now I would probably do a different style with this blouse this is one hairstyle I came up with or I could do something like that

hi super great this is my curl challenge for panda Paws and I'll turn up and I use my scarf to get these results and I'm really enjoying the look so I think everybody should try it and I'm actually really excited to get my Alterna hair bomb in the mail and my super-great package drop and I'll probably do another video like this just to use the product to and review it thank you

I super great I just unravel the scarf and I really love the curls beautiful I put it in last night in part 1 and I just unraveled it and I really love the look I think I will do this more often and I'm just so excited to get my Alterna hair balm from super great soon coming in the mail beautiful thank you on a pause for the tutorial and yeah I think it turned out beautiful

first impressions of alternative are driving so this is my first time trying it after my other half tried it and it looks really good on him like he just uses one product in his curls look amazing we both have fine textured curly hair but his is a bit more of a wave textured than Mine mine's pretty much like a tight spiral but fine-textured and kind of low density it smells really good has a cool little twist applicator and I like it textures a bit thicker than I imagined that I expected I just add a little bit of water to mine since my hair is finer and I didn't want to get laid down I think it's all right because I didn't get a cast like I normally do and usually I just use as well so this is just air-dried just the bomb that's not too bad I'll keep playing with it though

Alterna Caviar Anti-Aging Restructuring Bond Repair Hair Care

the Alterna caviar anti-aging reconstructing Bond repair leave-in treatment rules and how to use this is basically went to take a shower you put it after as a leave-in and then until the next day when you hit the shower you wash it off and I have seen so many great improvements in there and you should definitely try it out

A leave-in hair treatment and styling cream that delivers 10 benefits in one simple step, leaving hair perfectly polished, Contains pure caviar from the roe of non-endangered sturgeon fish, sustainably farmed in France, It is naturally luxurious and rich in vitamins, minerals, and omega fatty acids that help restore hair's lipid layer to its optimal state

10-in-1 Complete Correction Leave-in Hair Perfector

so this is the caviar CC cream 10 in 1 hair perfector and I put it in after every time I shower and then the next morning or I guess when it dries it is a very soft consistency it gets out a lot of the Dead hair in my head like it just starts falling out and I throw it away it's a very good product I would recommend it I actually got this in my Ipsy bag long time ago but I love this product I'll probably buy it cuz I do have really damaged hair

so have another great product for you guys and it is the my hair my canvas New Beginnings exfoliating cleanser it with Botanical caviar and okay here is my story for the day for the night whoever what time it is so my skin I mean my skin against my skin and my scalp are very oily but my scalp obviously I could scratch my scalp and feel like oils underneath my nails and that is disgusting so initially always think a I just need to shower more often but honestly that's probably not the best thing because you're probably making your scalp produce more oil because it's being cleanse about but I've been since I started using this a while back and I let me tell you that it actually helps likeit takes away the oil on myself like no eyes like this is a miracle I highly recommend it if you have oily hair and

good morning everyone I'm back with another super great package here I've been going to the mailbox almost every day and there's a package in there for me which is so I just wanted to say thank you again the super great yeah if I'm not mistaken this is the old Turner hair cleanser exfoliating one Patrol yeah this is via Alterna my hair my canvas New Beginnings exfoliating cleanser has Botanical caviar in it and I cannot wait to try it it's quite a good-sized at 6.7 Oz on the packaging is so pretty thank you again Alterna for your takeover we can thank you super great

bad hair day I know all of Adam trust me I use the my hair my campus and sometimes a lot of other products and I'm going to do a little twist one second baby so I'm just applying it really well to get the frizz out one second then I'll take one section and start twisting it antique another little section and twist that I'm not I can't braid my hair so I just twist it and then when they get BT then I get it into different after switching that front piece I'm going to twist all my hair together now that it's all twisted all take a little bitty band and I'm going to put it up top one second did I take another one and I'm going to put it right about here took another one and put it right about there and wild lie and I usually take some bobby pins just to get everything together but that's about it on a bad hair day

Caviar Anti-aging Omago+ Anti Frizz Dry Oil Mist

hi everyone today I wanted to review the Alterna caviar anti-aging smoothing anti-frizz dry oil Mist I have frizzy hair that's really tightly coiled and it is color treated I have a ton of layers on here and this was my first time trying this you can get this at Sephora even though my length I think we'd still like an Amazon page or something like that but first impression is I did really like this the mist is very fine it smells wonderful and it did really soften my hair I did put this on dry hair because I was excited to try it out and I've yet to try this on damp hair right after I shower so I'll let you guys know what I think and then but what I did notice is that only after a few spritzes and there's already a lot less of the product so I don't think this is going to last me very long

it's a great so this is the Easy Does It air-dry bomb from Alterna haircare I really love this stuff it's really easy to use it smells amazing it's got like prickly pear extract or something but I just love the scent of it and I always love having my hair smell nice it's just like one of those things that feels really good but I'll show you what the texture is like cuz it's it's interesting it's not I don't know how to really describe it cuz it's kind of like a bomb but it's also not super firm it's like still pretty like tacky little bit but it's really easy to just likecan I rub all over your fingers and hands and then I just rub it through my hair and it just helps get rid of flyaways and I'm Define My Curls and waves and the scent again amazing

hi super great so I got the Mike are my canvas hairspray from L turn it in the mail the other day and all that, cuz you got to use this right I use it on my hair today and I did lose about an hour ago and it's still like that so I like it and I like the smell will see how long it holds my hair is Curly and it's not straight but what I like the most about it is the fact that it doesn't smell like have this intense hairspray smell but if this is what it looks like talk to you later

hello everyone I am not greasy this is just a lot of sunscreen cuz it's really bright outside I don't have a window in my room but that's the closest thing to my window but anyway I got two packages and I already opened them do that I really said it cuz of how big they were and the first one is through this and it's what I tagged is the soaring high volume pump which I can't wait to use cuz I really want to go out my hair second one is also from Alterna it is be my hair my canvas New Beginning exfoliating cleanser so I'm really excited to have both of these I'm happy like they're so heavy because like it is like small but it's like it has a bigger circumference so yeah it feels like a good amount of product
