🌀 CURTAIN BANG STYLING TUTORIAL 🌀

I love using Sweet Spirit Leave-In Conditioner after washing, paired with their Air Dry Cream for wave definition and frizz control. 🤍

✨ Separate your bang section into 4 sections, with 2 sections on each side of your part.

✨ Use your hair dryer on medium heat and fan speed, I love my

✨ Start by making sure your roots are dry, then roll your round brush away from your face.

✨ For the front pieces, overdirect the hair toward the opposite side of your part to create that soft, swoopy curtain-bang finish.

Save this for your next wash day! 💁🏼‍♀️

I’ve been learning that grounding doesn’t have to be complicated.

Sometimes it’s a walk outside. Bare feet in the sand. A Pilates class. A few deep breaths. Or sitting under a tree with my tuning forks and giving myself permission to just be.

These little rituals have become anchors for me while I’ve been rebuilding my life.

Not because they make everything perfect, but because they help me come back to myself.

To listen a little more closely to what I need, what I’m ready to release, and what wants to come next.

I’m realizing this is the kind of space I want to create for other women, too.

A place to slow down, reconnect with your body, breathe, move, and remember who you are underneath all the noise. 🌿🤍

You can take a girl out of the salon, but she’s still gonna foil her own hair in the bathroom. 🤍

It’s been a couple months since I’ve picked up foils, and I didn’t realize how much I missed it until I was back at it.

There’s something so satisfying about falling back into a skill that’s been part of you for years. It reminded me that while life is changing, not everything has to.

And thankfully… I’ve still got it. 💁🏼‍♀️✨

A few months ago, I was standing at a crossroads.

One path was familiar. Predictable. Comfortable.

The other required trust.

Trusting that leaving behind a home, a career, routines, and an identity I had spent years building wasn’t the end of the story.

Trusting that I didn’t need all the answers before taking the next step.

Lately I’ve been reminded that clarity rarely comes before action.

More often, clarity comes BECAUSE of action.

Because we take the walk.
Submit the application.
Move to the new city.
Start over.
Say yes to the opportunity.
Trust the nudge.

The path unfolds as we move.

If you’re standing at your own crossroads right now, this is your reminder that you don’t need the whole map.

Just the next rooted step 🤍

Come along to !

This weekend was filled with inspiration, connection, familiar faces, and everything I needed to fill my cup!

In this season of life, I’m learning to say YES to every aligned opportunity that comes my way! ✨

Taking some time to slow down. Ground. Breathe. Spend time in nature. Be present.

These things sound so simple, but they require intentional effort — especially during seasons of change and transition.

Over the last several months, I’ve moved through selling my home, leaving behind a long chapter of my life and career, relocating to Florida, and stepping into a completely new season of becoming.

And honestly, the practices that have carried me through haven’t been complicated.

Nature. Breath. Movement. Stillness. Regulating my nervous system. Learning how to slow down enough to actually hear myself again.

I’m realizing how many women are moving through “in-between” seasons right now too — navigating change, uncertainty, burnout, reinvention, growth… All while trying to hold everything together.

So I created a little space to stay connected beyond Instagram 🤍

“The In Between with Marcy” is where I’ll be sharing reflections, grounding practices, movement, nervous system support, and pieces of this next chapter as it unfolds.
