DAY IN THE LIFE | packing & prepping for NYC, trying a new hair style, & getting organized 

I've been doing Velcro hair curlers and the trick is drying your hair first about 95% mostly the roots (for my hair which is wavy/curly). I also use mousse to help the volume before blow drying and hair oil. The trick to pulling them out is not doing it slow and unrolling it btw! You gotta pull it out like you are brushing your hair, one seamless pull.

Allison definitely is the epitome of comfort and warmth for the season! 🍁loving the rollers 🥰 so funny I am heading to FL and you came to my city NYC! 😅

I love the subtle waves the rollers gave you! I think the more you do it the better you’ll get at it ❤ also I’m so happy to hear that you’ll be in my city (NYC) can’t wait for those vlogs!

I love when you speak about your currently reading books. ☺️

You are so inspiring Allison. You are sunshine in human form 🌞

I really love how your style your hair&i can't wait for NYC video by u 🤍

You're so great! I've been watching all your videos reminiscing about my time as an exchange student in the US! Would absolutely love to visit Florida someday! I just know you'd love the Oregon Coast this time of the year, it rains (a lot), but it's lovely! Already waiting for the next video, here from Brazil! God bless you!🙏

I just painted my nails with the exact same Essie color and I love it so much! SO perfect for fall. 😊

I love homemade dressing and it’s super easy to whip up!

Allison is one of those RU-vidrs that I have related to these past couple years. l’ve been watching her since 2019, now l’m 23 and I see her as a big sister. You inspire me so so much! I thank God for YOU, the motivation, & encouragement you bring to my life everyday 🤎🍂

Thank you Allison for your wonderful videos keep up the good work!

I used to use velcro curlers. So easy ro use! You're hair looks great!

My granny always had a basket of Velcro rollers in her bathroom, good memories 🥰

I love the way your hair came out!

Loving the rollers! If you want that vavavoom victoria secret volume and bounce, I recommend putting them in with damp hair (no need to curl before), blowdrying with them in, then blasting with the “cool” feature on your blowdryer and THEN leaving them in for an hour (or more!) Also, the angle you roll them in matters. You want the strand of hair your rolling to be pointed as high up as you roll. I hope you have fun experimenting. So so looking forward to your NYC vlog and details on that plaid jacket!!!

So when I was a kid, in the 80's, I had to wear the dreaded pink sponge rollers. My mom would put them in when my hair was mostly dry but not completely. Had to sleep with them in. The curl factor was a 12 on a scale of 10 and it lasted for days. Short story long.....time and dampness.

I was in Orlando on vacation last week and I went to anthropology at Disney springs and was telling my husband I was secretly hoping I would some how bump into you! 🤣🤣

My fav fall dressing:Maple Dijon salad dressing 2/3 cup olive oil. 1/3 cup rice vinegar. 4 Tablespoons of maple syrup, 1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard, salt and pepper to taste and 1 tsp fresh or dried parsley. Shake in a jar and refrigerate till ready to serve.

Favourite youtuber 🧡🧡🧡

Have fun ... loving the hair ...

I am so happy I found your channel send you a big hug from Mexico...

I loved your thoughts on Tolkien ❤📚!

That was such a Beautiful dress that you rented!!❤

I love that you are reading more classic literature (especially the hobbit!!). I’m so jealous that you are getting to experience Tolkien for the first time ever!

You should try the rag method makes beautiful loose curls

I love your videos so much❤️

Thanks for dis nice vlog ba ba ,have fun...

NEED the details of that gorgeous tiered dress please!!! thank you

Have fun in NY! It’s a stressful place to be in but it’s fun too!

Allison you can get a tape to tape the dress up versus safety pins will probably tear your dress. Its made for material. Get at sewing or craft stores. Even Walmart in the sewing sections. God Bless.

Have a good week

Girl you need a compact tripod!! I love the atumtek one on Amazon. I take it every where!

The Hobbit movies are great, but they add a lot of elements from other Tolkien works! I love LOTR so much, and those movies are absolutely phenomenal!

That dress you are renting 😍😍 I need it

Where is your plaid coat from?? I love the fringe! I just came across your channel & your outfits are amazing!

Loved this video and love the long sleeve dress you were wearing! Where is it from?

It is very nice and beautiful new look 👍😊💜💖♥️

The New York City vlog is going to be a hard one for me to watch. I live in New York right by NYC but I have been stuck in Georgia since early September 🤦‍♀️ I miss my home and the city so much. I would’ve loved to be there at the same time as Allison.

Love your videos

I live in New Mexico; come visit this beautiful southwest state one day. It’s pretty magical and you probably will enjoy it ❤

Love your hair in these beautiful girls, so elegant! Have fun in NY! 😘

The Dyson or the Shark can help with voluminous curls! Rollers are so hard 😢

❤❤❤do you have a link for the long striped jacket with orange in it please ❤️❤️❤️

Hey Allison bickerstaff I love your vlogs so much and please put a heart on this comment and your day is so beautiful and happy Monday afternoon again vibes.

The Hobbit is my favorite series!!! I grew up watching Lord of the Rings and I definitely recommend you watch the whole series!

Allison 😊you have to leave rollers in until your hair is completely dry. 😮One hour is never going to work. The slower they dry the more the curl will last. I know because I only use curlers. With natural grey hair I don’t use heat tools as they can turn grey hair yellow. Just put your curlers in on a day when you can stay home until they dry. Good luck next time. You will get good curl memory and bounce. You have to be patient. ❤Also, once you get the hang of it it should only take a few minutes to do the rollers. The curls may last a whole week depending on if you have dry hair. At night put all your hair up in a bun using a scrunchy. Or one of those plastic elastics that are curly. There is no need to use a curling iron first. Wash your hair let it dry naturally until it’s just quite damp then put the rollers in. Experiment with various size rollers to see how your hair reacts. 😊

Large curlers is what I used to make my hair straight.

Love love from Kenya🇰🇪♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️❤️🌹❤️❤️

Can you link the roller tutorial you watched? 💕

I read a Tolkein biography, I think just called “JRR Tolkein” by Humphrey Carpenter - it was so amazing and that’s what has inspired me to read his works! Highly recommend!

what beautiful curls

Allison, I’ve been wondering for awhile. What length and depth did you do on your harmony sofa, and what’s the material called?

❤️❤️❤️

I'm playing catch up on your lovely videos Allison 😊 I have been trying to find the flexible pocket book series of, The Hobbit like you have shown us. I see Amazon has the collection in hardcover. Where can one find the set you have?

♥️♥️♥️

Hi from the jersey shore Allison! Your so sweet and nice don't ever change!☺ love your videos thank you!

Alison. Heres a weather explanation 😊..it is normal for the dry season🏜 to start at in Oct/Nov after "Hurricane Season" 🌀which comes at the end of the wet season (May to Oct/Nov)🌧. As the northern hemisphere🌎 goes into the winter months❄️, the "Westerlies"🌬 ie the winds blowing from East to West over the north Atlantic weaken, so less moist rain-bearing sea air comes to Florida. The dry🌥 continental air has more influence, expanding East across the US continent to bring dry continental air from the central parts of the USA to the Florida region (hence less rain)⛅️. I have just booked our flights to the UK for a 2 week holiday with family over Christmas.. and my sons and I each have ONLY an 8kg hand luggage bag + 2kg "handbag." But we travel and fly a lot, so have learnt to reduce what we take down to a bare minimum...but it will be a struggle due to needing cold wet weather clothes😬. Alison this was a cosy and beautiful vlog as always 😊. Loved the music choices. Especially when you were cooking. Looking forward to the NY vlog. Ps. Use only the smaller rollers, damp hair and/or spray on "setting lotion".. that will help with the curls. Your hair is long, so it is quick to pull out curls.

You guys went to my home town From NewYork live in Texas now

❤️

I love your video and you are pretty

Allison loved the vlog! what is the song called at 14:12?

A trick to keep the curl in is to put rollers in and spray with a little hair spray.

Allison! If you like descriptive imagery, then you should try reading Outlander by Diana Gabaldon 💜💜💜

Hello Allison😊Love your videos❤ Could you please tell the name of the song🙏 I can’t find it though typed in the lyrics😢

If Palmer sleeps in his bed by the tv what happens to his little room under the stairs? btw your awesome

The LOTR movies are great. I personally always think books are better then movies. That being said I have not read any of the books by Tolkein. I really really want to read them. They are definitely on my to read book list. All of the LOTR movies are on Amazon Prime right now. I absolutely recommend watching them in order starting with The Hobbit and Unexpected Journey. Thank you for another wonderful vlog. I really enjoyed seeing your New York photos on Instagram. God Bless you and Brandon.

Where is your luggage from? 🥰

NYC my city! :) If you need recommendations on where to go lmk ☺️😀Lived here my whole life
