Hi, I'm Ally and I'm Chinese-American and I was born with
thick black hair and it's no secret I love my black balayage I've had it for
several years now my hair is pretty dry and color damaged so for the past year
I've been using the living proof restore line and it's been great at maintaining
my hair and I am so so excited to finally share with you a secret that
I've been keeping living proof is launching a new product and it's a blue
dry serum that helps you cut down your blow-dry time and I am so excited to be
the face of their new launch all across Ulta Beauty nationwide you will find my
pictures in stores so I would love love love if you can snap a photo and send it
to me on social media I love being able to put a face to a username to those of
you who are watching my videos if you can send me a picture of you at Ulta
with my photo it would seriously make my day. I don't know what it is but I feel
like I'm chronically running late. Just because you're short on time doesn't
mean you have to sacrifice your health or beauty so today I am so excited to
partner up with living proof to share a few time-saving hats in the morning
ready light hair styles and successful morning routine hats you're new to my
channel please subscribe click the button here or down below so without
further ado let's get started
what time is it Bella Bella I'm late let's go so for the very first reading
light hack I would recommend using the bedtime app to develop a better sleep
schedule because my sleep schedule is very inconsistent some days I wake up
between 7 and 8 a.m. other days I am pulling all-nighters and
then on the weekends I can barely wake up before noon
so the bedtime app is amazing at helping me schedule out my sleep so I stay on
track and it helps me wake up feeling more refreshed yeah girl
whenever running late in the morning I try to have a condensed beauty routine
something short and simple I love products that are multifunctional and
helps me cut my morning routine in half if you take hair like me watching your
hair can feel like a marathon event it can take forever so what I've been
loving is the living proof restore blowout concentrate it's amazing at
cutting down the amount of time it takes to blow-dry my hair in the shower I like
to use these two products it's the restore conditioner and shampoo now that
my hair is all nice and clean I'll just take it out of my towel and I'm ready to
dry everything
here's my hair before I use the living proof restore blowout concentrate it is
definitely a lot more frizzy er poofier and feeling very dry I'm going to add
one to two pumps of the concentrate into the palm of my hands and just apply it
to the ends of my hair so now I'm going to blow-dry my hair girl my blow dryer
routine was just way too long it would take about an hour to an hour and a half
so now all I use is the restore blowout concentrate with my blow dryer it's a
heat and UV protectant all-in-one and I feel like my hair feels smoother it's
great for thick and coarse hair and seriously a little goes a long way
here's the final hair using the living proof restore blog concentrate my hair
feels so much smoother and it definitely dried a lot faster usually it takes me
about an hour to just to dry my hair and what the concentrate is spread up the
drying time and I was quick and out the door you can purchase this concentrate
for living proof at Sephora calm which I will have link down below now I'm going
to share with you my top two running light hair styles these are some of my
go-to s whenever I'm feeling like my hair needs a little bit of extra oomph
first I'm going to part my hair in half now I'm going to braid the top half of
my hair I feel like adding a braid makes your
hairstyle look more dressy and it feels like you put more effort into the way
you look
here is hairstyle number two which is a low ponytail with a ribbon added to it
so actually got this ribbon off of a shopping bag
whenever I'm running late I feel like the first thing that goes out of my mind
is food so what I like to do is to meal prep on the weekends and then whenever
I'm running late I can just pick this up from my fridge and I have a nice healthy
salad for whenever I'm running late I like to add on top of the screen got a
salad dressing it's amazing with avocados green onion and lemon juice I
knew I might feel a little counterintuitive to spend more time on
food but honestly I like to have a wholesome meal especially on the
weekdays don't you hate it when you're just about to head out the door and you
suddenly realize oh my gosh I forgot something everybody like hack is to pack
the night before I know this sounds kind of silly but honestly it helps me so so
much so I'd like to have an emergency kit full of things in my bag girl if
your hair is feeling a little bit greasy and you just need a touch-up I highly
recommend dry shampoo for all those hair emergencies definitely throw in a hat
like a beret you never know if it's about time in a month
so pack your tampons or pads and of course if you're running late you're
probably feeling very hungry so I also have some snacks if your lips are
feeling a little bit dry gotta have that lip balm some safety pins just in case
you have that clothing emergency these things go into my backpack and I am
ready to go out the door in the morning I wish I wear today we're running late
hack is supplying outfits during the weekend so I like to pick a few things
place it onto my clothing rack just so throughout the week whenever I have no
idea what to wear I have these planned outfits ready to go being prepared is
key if you have a presentation coming up be sure to iron your clothing the night
before running late hack number seven if you wake up in the morning and you feel
like oh you just like to move very slow and you've no sense of time I highly
recommend playing upbeat tempo music I like playing music when I'm getting
ready doing my makeup or hair just so I can move a little bit faster songs can
usually last between three to five minutes so it's a great indication of
how much time has passed
if you are always running late I hope these seven running like hacks helped
you out in some way special thank you to my friends at living proof for working
