Hey everyone! Diana with 204 Park here and I'm really excited to be guest blogging for Remington again! Today I wanted to share with you how I get ready for a girls night out. With the holidays fast approaching, this is a look I know I'll be rocking on several occasions. 

For a sleek look I start things off by using my Remington UV-Baked Ceramic Straightener. The thirty second heat up time is perfect for when you're on the go and easy to use temperature controls means you can find the perfect temperature for your hair! I use my straightener at 370 which I find to be the perfect temperature to get straight shiny hair. I use on dry hair and like to slowly glide the straightener over 2-3" sections of hair at a time. Thanks to the UV baked ceramics after I straighten my hair and it's shiny, sleek and smooth I set the look with a little bit of Moroccan Oil and then I'm ready for my glam evening makeup look! 

I always start my beauty look with a base of Nars Foundation and Rimmel Powder. Next up is to add a bit of blush. I love the Elf HD blush for a soft glow. To add a bit of drama I use my Maybelline liquid liner and amp up the look with a bit of Too Faced eyeshadow and lots of mascara. To finish things off I add a bright red lip and I'm ready for a night out with the ladies. 

Before heading out the door use a quick spritz of hairspray (I love Kerastase laque noir) and you'll have perfect hair to last you all evening and into the next day. Happy styling babes! XO

Hey everyone! My name is Diana and I'm a Canadian blogger over at 204 Park from Edmonton, Alberta. I'm SO excited to be guest blogging for Remington because today, I'll be sharing a fun braided look with one of my favorite hair tools!

Summer may long be over but that doesn't mean you need to give up your beach-y waves. Today I've got a simple braided hairstyle that's perfect for fall! All you need is your Remington 2 in 1 curling iron a few bobby pins, a hair clip, elastics and some hairspray.

Step 1: Start with your straight or natural hair and section away to begin curling. I like to clip the top half of my hair up to start at the bottom and work my way up in sections. 

Step 2: Curl your hair into loose waves. For a more natural wave, swap the direction of your curl as you move along to each section. For example, if you start your first curl with an "over curl" (wrapping your hair over the curling iron), curl your next piece with an "under curl" by starting to wrap your hair under the curling iron. 

Step 3: Once your hair is nicely curled use a quick shot of hairspray and run your fingers lightly through the curls so they look loose and natural. Then section the top 1/3 of your hair into two smaller sections along your part and start a simple braid in each section. Secure with an elastic.

Step 4: Pull the two braids towards one another and then, loosening a section in one of the braids, pull the other braid through so the two intertwine.

Step 5: Secure with bobby pins and hairspray then remove the elastics at the end of the braids for a natural look

With that you've created a simple fall braid that is perfect for fall.

Happy hairstyling babes!
