When you're in a beauty rut, it's a little like looking in your closet and seeing absolutely nothing to wear. Sure, you have the bones to create a killer look — a bold liner here, a bottle of texture spray there — but sometimes you just need a boost of inspiration. That's why we created Short Cuts, a series of quick, easy-to-follow videos meant to educate, refresh, and excite the beauty nerds in all of us. Whether you're looking to learn something new or to refresh your current routine, there's a Short Cut for you.
Say it with us now: Big hair don’t care! Letting your natural curls be their biggest and boldest may not be simple or fast, but you can make styling streamlined with these easy steps — and never find yourself hiding frizzy strands under a silk wrap or headband.
