Rapunzel, Rapunzel Let Down Your Hair

 
For the past month, I have refused to use a blow dryer or a brush. I may style hair for a living, but there is nothing I despise more than styling my own hair. Since I have been boycotting blow dryers, I’ve been wearing the easiest, chicest, and trendiest style. This takes me no more [...]
