Easy Glamour-It’s All About the Hair!

Lets talk hair, girls! I have heard that one of the quickest ways to give yourself a makeover is to change your HAIR! This means color and/or style. When dying your own hair, never stray more than a shade or two from your natural shade or your results are likely to be an embarrassing disaster.  Take your time to choose the right shade. Ask a consultant, look at celebrities with your eye color, skin-tone, and don’t forget the colors of your wardrobe! Ladies! We do not want to suddenly clash with every piece of clothing that we own.  In effect, if you have red hair and have a closet of lovely yellow tops and dresses, don’t go black unless you are ready to sport the new and fashionable “bumble bee” look.

The cut is something that can take some research. You want the right shade and layering for the unique shape of your face.  Here is a link that can give you a good idea of what to ask your stylist for. http://www.myhaircuts.com/

Also, after you get that great color and cut,  you still have to style it all! Here are some great videos I found that provide excellent tips for  first a style for simple elegance, then curling, finger-waving, and straightening your beautiful hair (in that order).

This girl has some GREAT technique!

Also, for some QUICK and EASY curling follow my idea explained below.

1. Take as many foam rollers (whatever size you need for your length)

2. Roll clean hair in desired direction all over head or wherever you desire .

3. Put on a nice large SHOWER CAP being sure that hair will not get wet.

4. Get into a VERY warm and STEAMY shower and bath for 10 mins!

5. Get out, carefully remove cap and allow hair to cool BEFORE removing rollers.

6. After you gently remove rollers, you should have very soft, curly hair.  You can separate slightly with fingers for softness, body, and style shaping! BEAUTIFUL!
