Fashion Week isn’t just about the clothes and accessories, it’s also about the hair, makeup and nails.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve dreamed of having wavy, luxurious locks. I have dabbled in hot rollers, but after a certain age there’s something about hot roller curls that just aren’t… well, cool (at least on me).
