blooper video
accessories giveaway!
Did you know I refuse to watch the first 10-20 videos that are published on the blog? It’s literally painful to see how uncomfortable I am in front of the camera.
I never inteneded on being the girl styling the hair. When the idea of hair tutorials came to me, I searched and searched on youtube so I wouldn’t have to make them myself.
I couldn’t find what I was looking for, so I filmed a few.
People kind of like them.
So I kept filming.
And here I am, a year and a half later, still filming.
but still needing a LOT of editing. . .
this video features many blank stares, a Grits cameo, and the voice of my sister. And lots of awkwardness.

LOVE the cat scene! Lol

My favorite video ever!

“Lay down, boy. It’s a safe place”. HA! I’m cracking up!
I’m currently editing a video, and I can appreciate this sooooooo much! Love it.
I love it! You’re too funny. 🙂 I LOL’d.
Your hilarious! Way to put yourself out there 🙂
Thanks for sharing this! I loved it and it shows the “realness” of putting yourself out there. I have been putting off vlogging for a long time. I just can’t get up enough courage to put myself out there. 😉
if you can laugh at yourself, you can vlog! 🙂
hilarious! Grits is the best
Hillary!!
This is awesome! I am trying to get comfortable in front of the camera but its hard! My cats do the same thing they just won’t sit down or I have one that head butts me. 🙂

Just.laughed.so.hard. I love the part where his tail goes back up and swoops over your face lol!! that was so funny!! You’re so cute, “Kate From my gray desk!” haha!
hahahahaha omg yes. this is golden.
I knew you would love it.
Thanks for sharing! LOL!
That was hilarious and amazing! Yes, I died at the cat part!!!!! What an awesome sport you are!! 🙂
I love it. I seriously laughed out loud with Grits cameo, LOL too cute!
Cat part is a total hit super funny!!! You are amazing girl
That was absolutely awesome! Thanks for making me laugh while in the midst of studying for my med school…all of Starbucks just saw me laughing like an idiot 🙂
This is great!
This made my day. Hilarious! I’m sitting here, wishing it were longer. Also, I watched the Grits scene twice – mostly because of your hilarious sentences. Thank you for the morning laugh!
Hahaha This is so cute! haha too funny. we still love your vlogs!
This was the purrfect way to start my Friday morning! Loved Grits!!
you do know it’s Tuesday, right? 🙂
um, love the part where you start to talk about the painting or bookshelf or whatever and you’re like “don’t be stupid…” lol
My favorite was “lay down boy. Come on. It’s a safe place!” Lol! Hilarious!
I cracked up when you tried to push your cat’s back to get him to lay down. I do this to my little dogs ALL the time and they never cooperate…
I know! They “stiff arm” and become rigid!
I think it’s awesome you posted this. I didn’t think you ever messed up at anything. 😉 Thanks for showing how real you are!
LOVE it! Thanks for posting 🙂
Haha this was hilarious! And awesome. It made me like you so much 🙂
Oh my goodness, that was great! Thanks for the laughs!!
Oh my gosh, I watched the Grits part at least 5 times just now! And I love how he randomly flicks his tail up to hit you in the face one last time! I almost died at the end at the pasty comment! Please post these more often!
!!!
You seem so natural it was fun to see it’s not so easy!
LOL!! Loved it! ;o)
Super cute. I still can’t believe that it’s only been a year. I am thinking I must have discovered you when you were just a rookie. Ironic because I thought you had been vlogging for years! Keep posting! I love it. I just did the latest big hair (Reese) with head band and received literally 10 or more comments. I always reply with “Thanks, check out Kate @thesmallthingsblog and you can do it too” 🙂
Rock on!!
**Let’s try compliments not comments!
Too funny! Thank you for sharing. Love that cat tail. 🙂
So funny! And Grits — oh my goodness. 🙂
This was sooo funny Kate, thanks so much for sharing…love Grits, especially the: “Grits, you idiot”… Merry Christmas Kate!!
Oh I loved it!! Needed that this morning!
Thanks for the laughs. you make it seems so easy:)
Thanks for sharing!! That made me giggle after another day with a crappy cold! I think Grits is just trying to get in on the action, styling for cats might just catch on!! ☺
LOVE the “don’t be stupid” part! You know all of us gals have that mirror conversation every morning!!
I love this so much! What fun is life if you can’t laugh at yourself from time to time! 😉

Love Grits appearance! You should hold him up for us to see once in awhile.
This was quite funny.
Can Grits and Gravy start their own blog/vlog? I would follow the heck out of that!
omg, if I had time I would LOVE to do that.

Thanks for sharing that! That’s exactly how I look when I am try to video myself and it helps to see that someone else has learned how to deal with it! 🙂
Loved that! Too funny. Thank you so much for sharing!

Thanks so much for sharing! I really enjoyed it especially your cats tail part. Looking forward to more videos in 2013. Keep up the great work 🙂
Oh, that was fun! Thanks for being vulnerable. It is awkward and you do it so well! Not the awkward, the videos.
I think my fave is at the 1:45 mark.
I thoroughly enjoyed this. You are just to cute for words. I have two cats and can totally relate! I absolutely love your blog and have tried a few of your hairstyles. Thank YOU and Merry Christmas!
So like a cat to just waltz on in and steal your thunder. 🙂 And that’s quite the tail he has, too!! Thanks for all your hard work!!
Loved it!!
i love when your cat hit you with his tail, so funny! my boy just curled up in my lap as well 🙂
Thank you for posting this! Literally laughing out loud 🙂
Thank you for posting this! Literally laughing out loud 🙂
hahah so funny! I hate leaving voicemails because I tend to say something dumb and then stop and then I have to hold myself back from commenting on what I just said haha totally relatable video!
Love Grits getting in the way!
Loved this!!! You are a cutie pie!
This just made me so happy! It was cute and funny all at the same time. It’s nice to see the person behind the camera and how they react to silly things like a tail in the face haha. Thank you so much for sharing this video. I’m so glad you’ve been around for a year and a half already and I hope you have many many years to come!
This is so funny! I am hoping to make my first hair styling video tutorial soon, so it is comforting to see this haha 🙂

My career has me behind the camera quite a bit – it’s not easy to get in front of it… Awkward or not, your videos have helped me style my hair, and for that I think you!
You looked ridiculously pretty in the cat tail invasion section. And that clip was hilarious. You should include funny blooper intros in your videos. Always lots of fun. 🙂
I just laughed so hard I woke my husband. And then I watched it again!! :-). Love your videos! (Not to mention your stinkin’ cute cat!!).
tell your man I say sorry! 😉
THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS! Everyone needs a good laugh and its good to know you’re just as normal (or not normal!) as the rest of us!! I agree that you should show more bloopers 🙂
This was a cute, treat to start my day. Thanks for making me laugh…but seriously, even though there are moments of bloopers with making videos…you still rock!! Keep up the good work:) E:)
Thanks for sharing! And your still super cute even in bloppers! The cat tail was hilarious also!! My dog tends to interrupt me/family when we are doing things also…
OMG!!!! I seriously am laughing so hard at work right now! My co-workers probably think I’m crazy! You are too cute and absolutely hilarious! Thanks for sharing 🙂

Everything but Ordinary
I am at my desk at work with headphones in. It took everything I had not to audibly crack up. I was shaking because I was trying so hard not to laugh out loud. When Grits hit you in the face with his tail–oh, man. I need to get myself together here.
hahaha, I love this.
“Lets get down to business” Ha ha! Such a funny video Kate! Love it!
Its so good to know u r not perfect. Lol! U look brest in all ur videos. Keep on making ’em. 🙂
OK, that is so funny! I’ve been following your blog for only a few months (found you through Pinterest), but this video makes me love you and your blog even more.
THanks for the chuckle today! I read your blog everyday! Thanks for taking the time to do your blog.

Thanks for sharing – brave move, but most enjoyable for your loyal viewers!!
This was the best! I cracked up at the “so pasty” to end it all. Hilarious!
This was awesome!!!
Oh gosh, I love Grits! And blank stares or not, you are beautiful! 🙂
Too funny! Thanks for sharing!
I love, love, LOVE your videos! Thanks for being brave and showing the awesome blooper reel. I would love to have a “how to video yourself” tutorial, if you’re ever in the mood…I just started to try doing some videos, and I’m finding it so hard to get the lighting right. Yours are so nicely done. Thanks again.
great idea!
“I am not, NOT good at reviews!” You are so cute! Thank you for showing us more of the real you.
Ha, super cute!!
Hahaaaa! And you are super cute, don’t be so hard on yourself. 🙂
I almost died laughing at the clip with Grits!
This was great! Love the confidence you have to put this out there. You are so REAL!…and funny. Let’s see more 🙂
BAHAHA That was hilarious!
Can I simply just say what a relief to discover an individual who really understands what they’re talking about on the web. You actually understand how to bring an issue to light and make it important. A lot more people ought to look at this and understand this side of the story. I can’t believe you’re not more popular because you most certainly possess the gift.
