EEK! So, I had another once in a lifetime opportunity… well, I guess I should say twice in a lifetime! TRESemmé asked me to participate in another 4-page advertorial spread in ELLE Canada! Yes, you heard that right…TRESemmé and ELLE CANADA MAGAZINE!!! Someone please pinch me!!! Who gets lucky enough to do something so fab twice in a row, right???!!! *Cue happy dance*

Susana Hong, TRESemmé’s lead stylist, who also happens to be the coolest person, created three very different wavy looks for my recent spread:

1. The Hollywood Wave
2. The Boho Wave
3. The Beach Wave

All three hairstyles that Susana created looked amazing, making it very difficult to choose my favourite because they were all so unique yet trendy!

I have been a huge fan of TRESemmé for a long time now, and I fell in love with their latest collection that was used in my spread called TRESemmé Perfectly (un)Done Waves™. My hair is thick and heavy, however these products did their job and did not weigh my hair down at all – tres excited about that!

The Boho Wave is the perfect hairstyle to sport in the summer for music festivals or even on a patio during the warmer months.

We got this look using TRESemmé Perfectly (un)Done Waves™ Sea Foam on damp hair. Using a large curling iron, Susana wrapped my hair around the barrel from top to bottom, and then I loosely ran my fingers through it to loosen it up.

The Beach Wave has been very popular for the last few years, and it’s still in high demand! This hair trend is not only great for the beach, you can also wear it to a BBQ or a night out on the town. It’s an effortless and easy look, which I love!

I found this hairstyle very easy to achieve. On damp hair, Susana used TRESemmé Perfectly (un)Done Waves™ Sea Salt Spray and diffused my hair. She also wrapped a few pieces around a straightening iron, and then brushed my hair with a wide tooth comb.

As I mentioned before, I have dreamed about being a hair model for years but never thought it would come true. Well, I was wrong… this 5′ 1/2", 30-something year old Style and Beauty Blogger made it happen! It’s an experience I will cherish forever. A dream come true indeed!!!
