A huge thank you to everyone who helped make this workshop a success! Our workshop sponsors were key in making this an amazing afternoon! All photos courtesy of C. Wright Photography in Houston, TX.

I can’t believe it’s already been a few weeks since our second Perform on Pinterest Houston Workshop! Channing and I worked so hard on putting together yet again another perfect afternoon, especially since last year’s workshop was such a huge success!

We had such a great group of sponsors to work with this year, the first being Carnegie Homes. We got to host our Perform on Pinterest workshop in an amazing four-story custom home in the heart of River Oaks. The home was professionally styled and staged by High Fashion Home, and it was the perfect venue for our intimate workshop.

Let’s get to some more of the details!

Lauren from Toast from the Host came out to help us style the event, and her event styling expertise is no joke! She (and Stacy!) executed it flawlessly. We were blown away with how beautiful the space looked.

The Kroger floral centerpieces and Minted decor and journals greeted each attendee as they sat down to learn.

Our Perform on Pinterest workshop took place on the top level. We were a bit cramped but we were so thankful to fill the room and get everyone learning!

Can’t forget the snacks! We picked those up at Kroger, as well.

Lauren and Stacy put together this awesome photo backdrop for us! We found the backdrop at Minted and they made it look so pretty with gold balloons.

Now, begins the learning! We packed in an amazing information in four hours. This is a hands-on workshop, where we ask our attendees to bring their laptops and work on what we are teaching. We were so happy with the learning portion of the Perform on Pinterest workshop.

When the learning portion of the Perform on Pinterest workshop was over, the fun did not stop! The Fuddruckers food truck showed up at our doorstep ready to feed us all the burgers our hearts desired! We also had a bartender on deck serving up cocktails. What’s a Pinterest workshop with us unless it includes a party?!

Trifles Houston brought in the most amazing mini desserts, and you bet we ate one of each!

Safe to say, I think we put on one heck of a party. Pinterest + swag + food + drinks + desserts = one awesome event!

I mentioned a few weeks ago that I have been worki I mentioned a few weeks ago that I have been working on restoring the after affects of my postpartum hair loss. I’ve been using @bondiboost supplements and products to regrow, nourish, and prevent further loss. One product I’ve been taking is the Anti Hair-Loss Supplement, which is perfect for anyone suffering from thinning hair and noticeable hair fall. It’s formulated with Biota Orientalis, which is an herb traditionally used in Chinese medicine to reduce hair loss and thinning. Plus, they’re vegan-friendly, cruelty-free, FDA approved, and made in Australia. In the month I’ve been taking this supplement, I’ve noticed less hair shedding in the shower and when brushing my hair. I can’t wait to see what continued use will do for my hair!

All three are wonderful affordable alternatives, but I definitely think one is a super close dupe! Check out my IG stories or the latest post on my blog (link in bio) to see my verdict!

Who has done an excessive amount of hand washing a Who has done an excessive amount of hand washing and hand sanitizing this past year? 🙋🏼‍♀️ That would be all of us. 😅 #DovePartner I know your hands are probably dry and angry and the rest of your body could use some moisture during the winter months. @krogerco has an amazing selection of personal care and beauty products that can help you be your best self this year. I’ve been loving the new @dove Nourishing Hand Sanitizer - it kills germs and actually feels moisturizing! And, of course, the Deep Moisture Body Wash is an old favorite of mine - great for the winter months or just for all the extra washing we’re having to do right now. Save time by adding Beauty and Personal Care products to your Kroger shopping cart, and your dry skin will thank you later. #UnileverPartner #UnileveratKroger #KrogerBestofBeauty
How we feel during yet another unprecedented event How we feel during yet another unprecedented event🤪 This Texas winter storm was wild, and completely heartbreaking to witness. It’s been a very hard week, and we are some of the lucky ones! Going without power for 3 days was not fun, but we’re very thankful we do not have any damage or burst pipes. 

So many people have quickly responded and been so generous. Neighbors helping each other, kindness from grocery stores and restaurants, and help from people out of state has really made me proud. We will get through this 💪🏻

I’m sharing a bunch of resources in my stories, and I’m saving it all to a “HELP TEXAS” highlight. Feel free to share it or reference it!

Why does nothing surprise me anymore? 😂 We clearly don’t know how to deal and a lot of people were without power today (us included). Had to post this pic of the kids before Logan decided he was over it. His first snow, and he was not a fan. 😂 Hope all of my Texas friends are staying warm!

I’ve said this many times before, but postpartum I’ve said this many times before, but postpartum hair loss stinks! Even though I’m 1.5 years out from having a baby, I am still experiencing after effects. My hairline is still thin, and I’ve got a lot of baby hairs I’d like to grow faster. To help speed things along, I’m starting a “hair glow up” challenge with @bondiboost products. First product I want to mention is the Hair Growth Support Supplement. This product and their anti hair-loss support supplement are scientifically formulated to promote hair growth and reduce hair loss and thinning. Plus, they’re vegan-friendly, cruelty-free, FDA approved, and made in Australia. The Hair Growth Support Supplement contains awesome ingredients like zinc, silicon, biotin, and ascorbic acid to support the maintenance of healthy hair. Can’t wait to see what it’ll do for my baby hairs! [sponsored] #BondiBoost #BoostYourRoots
If you bleach or color your hair, what are some of If you bleach or color your hair, what are some of the ways you like to keep your hair healthy? Here are some of the things I do:

▪️ Stretch my color sessions every 3-4 months. I know bleach and color services can weaken hair, so I like a lived-in rooted blonde that looks awesome as it grows out.
▪️ Air dry my hair after washing and use hot tools sparingly.
▪️ Use color-safe products at home.
▪️ Most recently, I've started incorporating the new @redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate line.

This new launch from Redken is exciting, as I am a big fan of the brand (I go to a Redken salon and find that their color is the best of all I've tried). The Acidic Bonding Concentrate range is specifically formulated with an acidic pH to defend against the negative effect of hair coloring, styling tools, and even water - to bring hair back into a healthy pH range. In trials, these products were shown to provide a 56% reduction of breakage, 11X smoother hair, 88% reduction of visual split ends, color fade protection, and ultimate conditioning. Say what? Sign me up! 

After the short amount of time I've used these products, I've felt that my hair feels stronger, smoother, and less brittle at the ends. I can't wait to see what prolonged use will do! #redkenpartner #redkenready #acidicbondingconcentrate
