    Love the look. She could have the most soft, big curls and still look like a blonde bombshell!

    Super good tutorial! I’d been trying to do some variation of this to get the big hair I always dream of, but I think what I was missing was enough product. I wasn’t using the texturizing creams and was only using the mouse and sprays and trying to tease the hair which wasn’t enough. Thanks for sharing!

    Thanks for the tutorial. Wow, there are a lot of products involved, but totally worth it with the great outcome. I love how it lasts a couple days.

    I am always so appreciative of your hair tutorials, you do them so well by explaining all that you’re doing and showing all of the different steps and views…definitely one of my favorite parts of your blog!
    I can’t think of any girl between the ages of 20-40 who wouldn’t want to know how to get the perfect “Carrie” hair, thank you for figuring it out and sharing!!

    ANOTHER great hair tutorial. Definitely going to try this out. And I’d like to second the above comment. I’ve become way more adventurous with my hair thanks to your tutorials. I was super clueless before but now I have a few looks under my belt. Thanks so much for posting!

    love this, Beth! I’m such a messy hair fan but it has to be done right to walk that fine line between carefree/confident and crazy. YOU do it right girl! I’ve been getting lazy lately and doing a side braid every single day, but this vid was just the kick in the pants I needed. Definitely running out to get mousse tomorrow – think that’s been missing from the routine – and to restock up on surf spray. Thanks as always for the inspiration!

    Honestly, if you just blew your hair dry with a diffuser it would do a better job, and waaaaayyy less work.

    This video was so helpful but also just fun to watch. You are a joy, definitely checking out more of your videos. And going to get me some surf spray.
