My first short hair style tutorial! It is so much easier with short hair for me. I wake up with an automatic style. For this look I decided to use a flat iron to curl.

1. Section hair
2. Grab a medium amount of hair and place the flat iron parallel to the floor .
3. With hair in the iron, you are going to flip the iron around “ribboning” the hair in the iron. The slower you ‘ribbon’ your hair the curlier the result

Try it out and play with the flat iron. Works great on long hair too!!

Our unpredictable cold, windy, rainy weather often leads to chapped lips. Avoid “flavored” lip balms, it may increase irritation by licking your lips

Exfoliate your lips at night with a toothbrush, I like to use baby toothbrushes. I mix sugar and a little bit of olive or grapeseed oil to use for brushing my lips.

I have been bored with my hair lately. I couldnt’ decide if i wanted to color it or just cut it! And with having long hair, or below my shoulders, I wanted a hair cut that would be noticeable. So initially I shaved one side, I know, that’s been done but I wanted to do it anyway. I was happy with the result but still wasn’t satisfied completely.  I knew that deep down inside Ive been wanting to just cut off my hair…. I mean cut it off… and I love it!
I still am planning on coloring it and go a little shorter next time.

I just took a class today for Nioxin…and what was a shock to me was that hair loss in women are just as high as in men!
Nioxin is more of a cosmetic line for hair loss, nothing too serious or pharmacy prescribed. It is for signs of fewer hair strands, finer hair strands, and unhealthy scalp environment for hair to grow from.
It is a 3 part system: Cleanser, Scalp Therapy and Scalp Treatment
They claim you can Thicker, denser-looking hair in 30 days Guaranteed!

So I’ve been growing out my hair for sometime, and now that I got it long, what am I gonna do with it?? I changed up my color a couple times, but still not ready to cut it again. What kind of hair cut can I do with long hair that looks like I cut it? I decided to just do my own version of the side cut, I know that was the thing to do before. I didnt want my side cut to be as dramatic, still wanted it to have a touch of femininity, still have some layers goin over it so I can show off the side cut or hide it. Here it is…

My new favorite product!!!! Well I actually LOVE all of Oribes products and Apres Beach is the newest one! A beachy, texturized look with shine!….. the only thing I would recommend is avoid the roots. As for most shine products, it is best to avoid the roots, you don’t want to look like you need to wash your hair again!

We’ve been seeing a lot of celebrities adding the heavy bangs in their haircut. What’s our first reaction? “Only they can pull it off” “They look so hot! I cant do that” There are different types of bangs that can play well with your face shape and let you feel comfortable. Make sure you do some serious consultation with your stylist to find the perfect fringe that will flatter you.

Why get face framing fringes? Its an automatic hairstyle.  A totally new you, a sexier more mysterious you.  Bangs can be a substitute for botox, hide lines or a large forehead.

Types of Bangs

Short bangs-edgy

angled bangs-edgy and flattering

heavy bangs-dramatic

whispy bangs-casual, easily swept off the face

Hair Textures

best on straight or a slight wave.

Curly, texutred hair needs more maintenance with upkeeping the style

Face Shape

on oval, long and square face  not so flattering on a rounder/fuller face

Skin Type

Oily hair and oily skin will work against bangs. Your bangs tends to stick together from the oil and may look ‘pointy’. Also you may tend to breakout on your forehead as the new bangs rests on the new territory
