How I Straighten My Hair (With GHD "Purple Indulgence")

Hello you guys!

A lot of you have been asking me to show you the exact way how I straighten my hair...
As you probably know, my hair is naturally wavy & quite wild. Even though I always get many compliments when wearing it wavy, I personally prefer wearing it straight. I love when my hair is straight, silky & smooth to the touch!

I have my GDH styler, for little less than a year now, and never before was I so pleased with a hair straightener!

You can watch my detailed review on my GHD styler (mine was a limited edition "Purple Indulgence") here.

Now, since this review, I got lots of requests to actually show you "my techinque" of hair straightening, so I finally filmed this video for you :)
Please click here to watch it!



I bought my GHD at Trilab hair salon here in Italy.
The original price was 189.00 €, but I had a 30.00 € discount plus they gave me as a gift a travel size GHD hair dryer.
I use my small GHD hair dryer whenever I'm travelling, but when I'm at home, I blow dry my hair with the Remington Protect & Shine pro ionic 2000 (you can see it on the pic above).

Loving my GHD!

Straightening my long & wavy hair has never been so easy!|




GDH hair straightener is extremely good quality, it is expensive, but
it's totally worth the money.
It really makes such a difference, when straightening my hair with this styler!
In Italy, you can buy a GHD at authorized hair salons, or directly on their website:

Which brand of hair straightener do you use?
Are you satisfied with it?
Have you ever tried the GHD hair stylers?

I'll talk to you soon,

I LOVE Spring!

By the way, I wanted to mention an amuzing comment that I got from one of the haters on my recent video...
I usually prefer to ignore the haters, just because I don't want to give these sad & bitter people too much attention that they didn't deserve, but this comment here I just couldn't not share with you!
So here it goes....on my recent Spring Lookbook video, MsItalianStyle comments this:
"I detect a series of mental illnesses in this girl and a pointless amount of self adoration...."

I went to her  channel page, to see her profile, and there, this 34 years old woman claims to be an extremely honest person, who will always comment with truth on other people videos and if she dislikes something, she will say so.

Now, I do appreciate the honesty, very much.
But, if she was simply an honest & genuine person, who really wanted to comment under my video, she could have just written that she dislikes my outfit, or the way I'm presenting it...
But, how did she deduct all series of mental illnesses and a pointless amount of self adoration in me!?
Maybe we're talking about the Psychological projection here?

I'm honestly not bothered or touched by the haters comments, half of the time I find them amuzing, half of the time just ridiculous!

If I'm making vids, it's simply for fun & pleasure, and because I want to do something helpful for you guys! Certainly I'm not into self adoration lol
I don't have low self esteem, but I don't have a sky high self esteem either.
I'd say I have a normal self esteem and I never ever think I'm the best dressed or that my fashion sense is the best one...lol
If you think that of me, you're seriously mistaken...

But I know I shouldn't be even spending my time, writing these lines to you, because I'm blessed with my lovely readers & subbies who love & support me & hopefully got know me a bit better through all my blog posts & videos that I make.

Wishing you all a lovely evening,
xoxo
