HTHG’s mom hair remedy at the Hunt family reunion.

Here are my three beautiful cousins. Lindsay, Megan and Jackie. At the Hunt family reunion this year, we joined forces at a Rocky Mountain family summer camp and celebrated the wackiness and wonderfulness of family along side hundreds of other families in matching T-shirts

The kids ran wild, the grownups ran wild after the kids, my daughter fell in love with her cousin, the kids faught, then played, then laughed.

We played a game called ‘Cornhole’, a fun midwest tailgating game that involves lazily tossing a beanbag, and drinking. It got quite competitive, and by the end, new friendships and enemieships were established.

My girl cousins are fun, magnetic, hard-working women who are raising kids between the ages of 3-11. They are busy moms, and they don’t have a lot of time to think about their hair. But they are also very spunky ladies who just happen to have ‘mom hair’

Mom hair is a reality. It is not a choice. It comes with the territory of putting our style needs on the back burner while our home life and professional lives take turns bubbling over on the front two burners. If you are a mom, ‘mom hair’ is inescapable for a majority of the time.

So, I brought my shears along to help bring a little more spunk and style to the inevitable ‘mom hair’ that lurks around dark corners of family reunions. And I can honestly say that by the end, the Hunts had the best hair at the YMCA of the Rockies.

Lindsay’s hair is beautiful and thick and a blend of curls in the back, waves on top, and almost straight in the front. I didn’t remove any length, used my shlob layering technique to lighten up the ends and mid layers and create more volume in the crown. Then, I and used my bulk removing technique to remove weight and break it up so that it would fall into beautiful curls.

Jackie’s thick straight hair was cut into an asymmerical pixie bob. I texturized with my weight removing technique. Goodbye, mom hair!

 

Megan’s hair is fine and straight and sunny golden blonde. Perfect for some texture in her ends, and length removed to give it more movement and swing. A modern bob was scissor cut to shatter the ends. A little layering around the face, and her hair was as hip and spunky as she is.

Then, Jackie’s 11 year old daughter Josie got a modernized inverted bob. Her thick straight hair worked perfectly.

Giving a shout out to my dad’s side of the family. I love you all!XOXO, HTHG
