So many celebs rock this hairstyle from on the red carpet to during day to day life, and it always looks great. This style definitely goes with any outfit and accentuates any face shape beautifully.
Another great aspect of this look is that it can be played around with – pulling some hair back or working your hair into a pony tail, gathering these super hot curls.

Frizz is such an annoying hair problem that many, many women face. It is totally unavoidable at times, but it is manageable!
In order to reduce hair frizzies, be sure to get your hair trimmed regularly to get rid of split and dead ends, which could contribute to hair frizz.
Another great way to reduce frizz is to apply smoothing cream to your hair before blow drying it.
Finally, keeping your hair hydrated is key! Reduce its exposure to heat from products like blow dryers and straighteners and avoid washing it every single day – as this strips it of its natural oils and dries it out.

In our last blog we talked about the dangers of tanning, and how sometimes in our efforts to improve our looks, we sometimes abandon our healthy beauty regimen for the new fad. We all made New Years resolutions to improve ourselves for 2013, but the following may make you do more research before you try anything on your body that could potentially be dangerous!
Today we’re talking about Keratin Hair Straightening Systems. By applying these chemicals to your hair one time, your hair can be transformed from frizzy to tameable. If you maintain regular Keratin treatments you can drop of the hassle of straightening you hair every morning, which is the reason this sells. But what is exactly in these chemicals?
The Keratin solution applied to the hair contains formaldehyde, a known carcinogen. When inhaled (whether during treatment or when it washes out), formaldehyde can cause chronic lung or respiratory tract problems.
We hate to be debbie downers, but the risks of cancer and other chronic health problems is not worth losing the 10 minutes it takes every morning to straighten your hair ladies!
Thinking of getting a major haircut to start off the new year with a new look? It’s a big choice and definitely a huge change! Going from long to short, even if it’s just for a bob look, is pretty life-changing.
Before committing to the new look, go to a wig store and try it out! It may seem silly, but it’s worth it to test drive your potential new hair.
Also, when you go to get your locks cut off, bring a picture of the hairstyle you’re going for so there is no confusion with your hair stylist. When you’re going short there is not a lot of wiggle room for fixing.
Finally, consider your lifestyle. If you work out a lot or don’t have much time in the morning to style your hair, maybe reconsider the cut. Remember that you won’t be able to put your new do in a pony tail!
What are your thoughts on major cuts? Intriguing and image changing or too dramatic for your tastes?
Everyone buys beauty products all the time, so why not buy some that support a cause?!
Especially as women, it’s more important now than ever to support one another in whatever way we can.
One of the easiest (and most fun!) ways to do this is by purchasing usual beauty products that support breast cancer.
There are so many to choose from, at all different price points. This makes it beyond easy to pick up these products!
From Scunci hair elastics to Conair brushes, from Aveda hand cream to the Bobbi Brown Pink Peony makeup set, there is bound to be a product you’ll love that will help out in the fight against breast cancer.
Especially around this time of a year, it’s all about giving back! Considering getting a gift for a loved one that will not only make them happy, but do good as well.
Lets face it the summer heat and humidity does NOT do good things for our hair. Luckily there are some hot trends that allow us to get the hair out of our face and off of our backs this summer.
Try a sleek pony tail. This look is so simple yet so classic. In our opinion the higher pony tail the better. If you don’t want just a regular pony tail try curling the pony tail with your curling iron!
Fish tail braids are so in! The care free look is perfect for summer…and there is no need to have the perfect fish tail braid because the messy look is definitely in.
Try a nice top-knot bun. Let everyone see that pretty face of yours! Just twist it up and you are ready for a night on the town. This is a great day to night look.
Bored with your hair? We can all relate to this…but a great way to spice up your look is to add a little bit of color to your do! This creates a care free summer look. However, no permanent dye is necessary! You can achieve this look without actually dying your hair! The secret is hair chalk, this can be found at most beauty supply shops. The best part is the chalk comes in a variety of colors so you don’t have to choose to just one! Now you don’t have to worry about damaging your hair with dye, and you can wash it out whenever you please. You can apply the chalk to the ends of your hair or to your whole head if you want….the decision is yours!
