The sweltering heat in San Diego has been kicking my behind lately. I went for a quick walk down to the Beauty Supply Warehouse and passed by a public thermometer that read 96 degrees. I shouldn’t be complaining though, my poor husband works out in East County where yesterday it was 109 degrees, and today is supposed to be hotter! The poor guy, he is a locksmith, and has to go in and out all day working on car locks.
I was crazy enough to head outdoors (rather than melt into my couch in front of a fan), because I wanted to pick up a bonnet dryer attachment and some rollers. I have been using hot rollers on my hair for years, but only because they were what I had on hand. I learned to set hair the old fashioned way, while going to beauty school, and already know the results are not even comparable. Wet sets just last so much longer. So now I am all set to do wet sets on my hair, well when the temperature cools a bit!
While we are on the subject of beauty supplies, I found the most incredible nail polish color yesterday by China Glaze. The color is called “Light My Tiki”. The name is quite appropriate, it is the perfect tropical color. It is the kind of color you wear on an a small island in the South Pacific with a lei around your neck while sipping on mai tais surrounded by birds of paradise. It is much more pink than the picture shows. I bought the color at Sally Beauty Supply. The site says $4.99, but I bought it in the store for $2.99, though I do have a Sally card.
If you have a few minutes to spare I suggest watching this video. The clothes, makeup, everything is fantabulous!
