Cutest little bowtie

Do you love having curly hair, but you’re bored of it just having it look the same way every day? Want to spice things up a bit and do something different with your hair? Well this blog will give you some ideas of hair styles you can do with curly hair!  There are so many things you can do with your hair while it is curly. First of all if you have naturally curly hair while it is still damp put some no frizz product into your hair. To get the best results you should use John Frieda’s Frizz Ease product. This will make your hair very smooth and less frizzy. Therefore your hair will be more tamed and less crazy looking.

            The little bowtie hair do is a very classy but gorgeous look. But before you start trying to do this bowtie try to avoid the Miney Mouse look. The longer your hair is, the easier time you will have making the bow. You’ll need to use bobby pins and a little touch of hair spray should do the trick. Also use a little plastic band for your hair to keep the bow actually looking like a bow. Begin by taking one small section of hair from each side of your head.  The bigger the sections, the bigger the bow. Tie the two sections together with an elastic to create a half ponytail.  Don't pull the ends through the elastic the last time you wrap it to create a loop like the picture on the right.  Split the loop in half to create two smaller loops and clip one loop aside for later. Use your fingers to spread out the loop and push it flat against your head into a bow shape.  Insert one bobby pin going from top to bottom and one going from bottom to top. Repeat on the opposite side to finish the bow shape. Pick up the remaining ends of the ponytail and wrap them up and around the elastic to hide it.  Secure it with bobby pins underneath. Finally you have your perfect little bowtie and you’re good to go out the door looking fantastic!

Long Hair, Don't Care

Do you wish you had long hair but don’t know how to grow it out.  Well here are some ways that will help you learn how to grow out your hair. There are many products you can use to make your hair grow faster. You can take a vitamin called biotin for hair growth. Biotin, otherwise known as vitamin B-7 is an essential nutrient that can be found naturally in foods such as eggs, brewer’s yeast, cauliflower and cucumber to name a few.  It has also been shown that taking higher doses of Biotin in supplement form can greatly benefit the hair, skin and nails. Being inconsistent with taking biotin will definitely vary your results. Biotin can be found at most drug stores and almost all vitamin stores. Another way to make your hair grow faster than normal is to get regular haircuts. And not full inches off, but about a half an inch each time should do it. Always use moisturizers in your hair after you shower. For the best results I would use a shampoo, conditioner, and leave in conditioner that has moisturizer in it. The Aussie line is one of the best. Begin with the Aussie moist shampoo. Then follow the shampoo with the Aussie moist conditioner. I would say condition twice for the best results. After your shower towel dry your hair so it is just a little damp. There are two more different products in the same Aussie line that you can use to keep your hair moisturized. There is a product that is two in one. It is a moisturizer and shampoo in one. Also there is a deep conditioner which moisturizes your hair in one easy step and you wouldn’t have to repeat. Along with taking vitamins and using moisturizer it will also help not brushing your hair when it is wet. Brushing your hair while it is wet can pull on your hair and cause you to get split ends. All in all if you use these three things your hair should grow naturally and healthy.

The Simple Things

Have to go somewhere soon but still want to look adorable? Well why don’t you try some simple braids that’ll do the trick! There are many different types of braids to do quick and simple. Some people will look at certain types of braids and think it’s impossible to do. Little do they know that most of them are very simple just take some practice.\

The simplest type of braid is the regular, single braid. First thing you do is brush your hair and make sure there are no knots. Next just separate your hair into three equal sections. Use your fingers and take the first strand and put it over the second strand. Then take the new second strand and put it over the third strand. All you have to do is keep repeating this process and you’ll have a cute simple braid in a few seconds.

Another type of braid is the fishtail. This is a very cute easy braid. First you split your hair into 2 equal sections. Then Holding one section in each hand, take a small piece of hair from the left side and cross it over to the right. Repeat crossing a small piece on the right side over to the left side. Continue crossing the small pieces over from one side to the other all the way down your hair. Secure the end of the braid with a ponytail holder or an elastic band. Some styling tips for this braid are one, try to take the sections from the side so that the braid will extend wider. The smaller the sections the more intricate your braid will look. Finally don’t forget to stretch out your braid once you are finished with all the steps, it will make your braid look thicker.

Those are just a few different ways to braid your hair. But as you can see braiding is pretty simple once you get the hang of it. Its nice to not have to rush and get ready and have to curl or straighten your hair. And also braids look a lot better than throwing your hair up in a bun. So just keep in mind, anytime you want to look decent but don’t want to try too hard just take 2 mins of your time and do a simple, cute braid.

The seasons of colors!

Everybody loves a little change here and there. Why not change your hair color?! The amount of shades of colors you can dye your hair is endless. If you’re very fair skinned you should probably stay away from darker colors. If you have darker skin you pretty much can dye your hair any color. Some people like to go extreme with their hair colors and others like to stay in the natural zone.

            Seasonal hair colors are definitely in. Seasonal hair colors are dying your hair to match the weather. For example, in the summer people want to have lighter hair. Once fall hits people will start dying their hair darker colors. But dark colors don’t only settle at dark brown and black. There are plenty different colors and shades of colors to dye your hair. Some shades of dark brown are as following, light intense auburn, dark intense auburn, dark soft mahogany, darkest violet and many more. Some lighter shades for summer time include, bleach blonde, light golden blonde, lightest coolest blonde, light blonde, champagne blonde, dark blonde, light natural auburn, light chestnut brown, light ash brown and the list goes on.

            You have to be careful when you color your hair though. You have to consider your current hair color you have now. If you have lighter hair it really doesn’t matter because the color will soak in and take a lot better. But if you have darker hair it may be a bit more difficult to color your hair. I would recommend bleaching your hair before you color it if you have darker hair. If you don’t like the idea of bleaching your hair you could also strip your hair of all color.

            Going to a hair stylist is probably the best thing to do if you’re going to color your hair. You can always do it at home with box dye but it doesn’t always come out the way you would like it to. For the best results you should go to a hair salon and have a professional make you look your best.  

Give it to me straight

Want pin straight hair? Well here are some tips, products, shampoo and conditioner to help you get the straightest look. Start with towel drying your hair to get any excess water out. Use a protective balm such as, Living Proof No Frizz Straight Styling Treatment, to hold in the moisture and it will keep your hair from getting frizzy. Then you’ll want to blow dry your hair using a brush to keep your hair untangled. Also I would recommend using the comb attachment that usually people have no idea how to use. Start blow drying from your roots first then continue down to the ends of your hair. Only blow dry medium sections of your hair at a time. When your hair is finally dry you can turn on your flat iron. A good flat iron to buy is the CHI. CHI has some of the best ratings for flat irons. Even though they are pretty expensive they are worth the hundred dollars. You can pretty much find CHIs in any store. Some examples are Target, Walmart, Sally’s beauty supply, and so much more. While waiting for your flat iron to get to the desired temperature apply another product to your dry hair to protect it from the heat. Always keep in mind that you are using a flat iron about 400 degrees on your hair. Using heat protection is probably for the best interest for your hair. You can use got2b Guardian Angel Heat Protect N' Flatten Flat Iron Balm and Gloss Finish to protect your hair from the heat. This product will keep your hair soft and smooth and very shiny, but of course not too shiny. After applying this product separate your hair in a few sections. I would say about four sections if you have long or thick hair, if you have short or thin hair I would say two is enough. Start straightening your hair with your flat iron and do it in a slow pace so you don’t pull on your hair too bad. Continue straightening all sections of your hair then apply John Frieda Frizz-Ease Moisture Barrier Firm, Hold Hair Spray to help keep your hair straight and non- frizzy. Brush through your hair once or twice and enjoy your nice perfectly pin straight hair!

Beautiful Hair

There are so many different types of hair. Thick hair, thin hair, curly hair, frizzy hair, straight hair, flat hair, hair with volume, and much more. Some people like to change their hair color and some people like to change the length of their hair. The amount of shades of hair color you can chose from is endless. From bleach blonde to the darkest black shade. But if you decide to color your hair you have to be careful. When you color your hair it damages your hair to a certain point. There are multiple kinds of products you can use to protect your hair from damage. If it’s from coloring it or just regular protection you can find plenty of products.

 If you want to protect your hair from coloring damage here are some products that may help you out.  Topganic Conditioner Argan Oil for Dry & Colored or Damaged Hair, Dove Damage Therapy Shampoo, Color Repair, and many more. Also if you want you can use certain types of conditioner to keep your hair soft and shiny after coloring your hair.

            The amount of hairstyles you can do are endless. But the hairstyles also depend on how long or short your hair is. If you have long hair you have more options to choose from. Many people like to braid their hair when they want to have lazy days. You can fishtail, french, waterfall, half up crown braid, and tons more. Sometimes people want to look classy and elegant and they will braid their bangs and then curl the rest of their hair. People also will do the same thing instead of with a waterfall braid.

            Many people like simple and fast ways to do their hair. The beach wave is a very common hairstyle. It is easy to do and doesn’t take a long time to do. All you need to do is braid your hair in normal braids either one or two, and then keep them in for a while. I would recommend doing it before you go to bed after a shower and sleep with it in. The beach wave is a very adorable look for most girls.

            To many girls and woman hair is a very important thing to them. Having pretty hair makes people feel good about themselves. And if a person feels good about themselves they end up having a pretty good day.
