3 Voluminous Hair Hacks
The higher the hair the closer to Jesus? Or something like that. For most of us the dream is to have long flowing hair with just the right amount of oomph. That sexy fullness only those who pay a fortune to get their hair blow-dried weekly can achieve. Here are a few of my voluminous hair tricks!
Chubby Curling Tong
Pick a super duped wide barrelled curling tong and take 1-2 inch sections and curl. Then as you let them loose use a comb to brush them out. Make sure to prep the hair with a good heat protectant that has a little hold. My pick is the L'Oréal Paris Elnett Curl Heat Protect Spray. Results- bouncy loose curls with just enough definition. Psst - Babyliss Glamour Waves is the best tool.Velcro Rollers
Think of these as a push up bra for your hair. Prep hair by scrunching through a bit of mousse (Oribe Grandiose Hair Plumping Mousse) and then take a roller and roll the hair up. Don’t worry about being to precise about this as uneven placement can add to the undone voluminous look. Number 1 Tip? Roll the ones at your crown away from the face. Set the hair with heat and finger comb out.Prepping Products
Make sure to use a texturising or volume boosting spray before drying the hair. If you have fine hair to begin with and struggle to get volume then this is key step. Just make sure not to overload the hair with product as it can leave it looking TOO volumised. Remember were going for sexy mussed up volume not crazy dragged through a hedge volume! Oribe Dry Texurising Spray and Bumble and Bumble Salt Spray in conjunction with each other is just... next level.Royal juice: Kate Middleton's diet secret

Cooling off in California with a cabana at the Peninsula Beverly Hills
When I think of California two things instantly come to mind - the ocean and pools. Can you tell I was a water baby? It just makes sense to me to have a pool if you are a Los Angeles native, even if the sea is just a hop, skip and jump from anywhere in Los Angeles. So, naturally, I can't visit the beautiful city without visiting a pool, right?
Half the fun in planning a visit to a foreign city is planning the hotel and for me I'm always on the lookout for locations that have pools - a rooftop pool is even better! This time around The Peninsula Beverly Hills came in handy.
Mademoiselle Robot and I took full advantage of a very special deal running at the hotel, and naturally I had to share for any of you thinking of taking to the coast sooner rather than later. From now until May 22nd, The Peninsula Beverly Hills are giving guests the chance to book a cabana on the rooftop pool from 10am-6pm for $350 per couple. The experience includes: daytime cabana, pool usage, cocktails for two and seasonal chef bites. Oh how worth it this is, people. Now if only Mr. FFG had thought to come out and set this up. But hey, a day in the sun with a best girlfriend is the second best thing.
Now, if you really want to push the boat out, book a mani/pedi in the cabana spa. Yes, you can get your nails done with a view of Beverly Hills and a heavenly pool. It just so happened that while we were in residence there was a special promotion going with the mani/pedi in which you receive a complimentary Butter London nail polish with each booking (just quote "Butter London"). You can take the girl out of London... but you can't escape London brands!
In short, I can't recommend this experience enough if you are looking for a truly luxurious experience in Beverly Hills. What a great way to surprise a loved one or a friend in need of some serious R&R.
Here's a little visual diary of our day in the sun. As expected, it's mostly pictures of food. I mean the pool is great, but how many pictures of the pool can one person consume? Plus, the food was so incredible I just went ahead and decided to make it a main feature. Ok, ok, who am I kidding? After eating all this food I wasn't about to share pictures of myself floating in the pool.
