Ponytail Oh Ponytail




Well, Hello everyone! How are ya today? It's been long long long time ago no writting in these blogs. Well, I promise I'll be backas son as posibblle now. I'm so sorry because I'm too bussy.
And now, I'll posting about:

"How to Get a Perfect Ponytail Hair"



Things You'll Need


  • Hair Accessories
  • Ponytail Holders
  • Anti-frizz Hair Serums
  • Combs
  • Hair Gel
  • Hair Mousses
  • Hairbrush

Instructions

  1. Comb your hair, removing any tangles or snarls. Day-old hair transitions very well into a ponytail, as does de-tangled "bed head." Add a dollop of styling mousse or pomade to give just-dried hair some weight and texture.
  2. Tame any flyaway hair with an anti-frizz serum or hair gel. Style the front of your hair, including any bangs, wisps or tendrils you do not want pulled back. Part your hair where desired.
  3. Pull a rubber band around the wrist of your lead or brush hand. Brush hair into your free hand, letting the tail hang parallel to your spine. Collect all the hair you want to include between the L made by your thumb and palm.
  4. Set the brush down, then tighten the grip on your gathered hair. Transfer the ponytail into your lead hand. Your palm should face the back of your head, with your fingers and thumb facing down and your elbow facing up. Let your hair form a cord in the tunnel of your grip.
  5. Hook the rubber band with your free index finger and stretch it down. Pull your ponytail through the band, keeping a soft grip.
  6. Keep the rubber band tense as you insert your other fingers and thumb into the band and twist it around the base of your ponytail. Press your pinky against the point where the rubber band crosses and make a wide circle.
  7. Grab your ponytail and pull it through the rubber band. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until the rubber band fits snuggly.
  8. Take a small section of the tail and wrap it twice - once for short hair - around the rubber band. Secure it by inserting it into a strap of the band. Use an extra dab of gel or anti-frizz serum on the twisting section for greater control.

    Good luck everyone!

How To Get Sexy Wavy Hair

What You Need:

  • Volumizing spray
  • Straightening balm (if you have thick, course hair)
  • Hair dryer
  • A 1-inch barrel curling iron
  • Ponytail holder and bobby pins
  • Shine serum
  • Hairspray
  • Saltwater spray

Here's How:

  1. Turn upside down and spray freshly washed roots with volumizing or texturizing spray. Massage it in (stylist Garren insists the rubbing motion creates body and texture). I like Bumble and Bumble or you can try Aveda volumizing tonic .
  2. If hair is naturally coarse or curly, work a straightening balm through hair. Here's a great list of balms.
  3. Brush hair (this works the product evenly through hair). Blowdry hair straight, starting at the roots to get extra volume. Hair must be completely dry for this look to work. Blow cold air at the roots to add volume (cold air locks in a style).
  4. Separate hair into three sections, securing with a ponytail holder. (It's easier this way to curl your way through each section).
  5. To curl hair, use a wide-barrel curling iron. Starting with one section, take a 1-inch portion of hair, spritz it with styling spray (again, I love Bumble and Bumble Styling Spray) or hairspray. Wrap hair around the barrel of the curling iron. (Wrapping hair is different from the traditional curling method. You don't want to 'clip' hair into the barrel. Wrapping allows you to curl all the way to the root). When you're curling, make sure to leave ends loose to avoid a crimp mark.

    Release the curl after about 5-10 seconds (hold longer if you want a tighter curl). You should have a corkscrew curl.
  6. Roll curl and bobby pin it close to the scalp. (I'm lazy, so I skip this step to save time).
  7. Alternate the direction of the curl as you work your way through each section. (It's all in the direction you wind hair around the barrel of the curling iron. Start by placing hair on top of the barrel and wrapping around, then switch by putting the barrel on top of the hair before winding it around). Alternating directions makes curls look more natural. Some curls can remain tight, some loose.
  8. Once pinned curls have cooled, release them.
  9. Remove nozzle from dryer and gently loosen waves with cool air. You can also separate curls with your fingers, just make sure not to brush them out.
  10. To add shine, spritz a hair serum . Stylist David Babaii finger-combs Biosilk Silk Therapy serum into actress Kate Hudson's hair (May 2007, InStyle). You can forego hair serum and spritz with saltwater spray. I like John Frieda Beach Blonde Ocean Waves Sea spray.
  11. Set with hairspray. Just don't overdo it, you don't want new waves to feel "crunchy."

How to Wear Bright Colors and Flower Print

http://houseoffraser.scene7.com/is/image/HOF/I_129588945_50_20090825
There’re lots of women, who choose garments by the color. Have you ever faced the following situation? You see a very nice t-shirt, or shoes, or jacket, no matter what, it suits you perfectly, you would wear it every day and all your friends would be envious of it. You just love everything in it! Everything, but the color. You have never worn such bright colors, maybe only in childhood. And honestly, you have no idea, how to wear them and what to combine with it. But it’s not so complicated. I’ll try to help you with it, so that you wear, what you like, but not what you’re accustomed to. If the basic clothes item is bright (pink, for example), the accessories should be of the same color gamma.You may also combine several garment items of bright colors.Here are some examples showing, how to combine bright colors in clothes:
    Dresses from Pucci’s Spring-summer Collection
    Pucci’s Dresses
    If your choice is a blood red jacket, but you don’t know, what to combine with it, wear it over a black dress. Your bright jacket will look like a jewel in a strict frame. You may also wear it over a dress with a flower print. Look at the picture, how it looks and pay attention, that bright colors look more attractive than dull ones, even if the woman is beautiful.
    Red Jacket over a Flower Print Dress
    If the bright thing you like, but cannot make up your mind to buy, is an accessory, feel free to wear it with white-black gamma garments. And vice versa, wear bright colored clothes with accessories of laconic colors.
    Pucci’s Accessories
    Your bag may be the accessory which gives tone to your entire image. But choosing a bag of a bright color, remember, that in this case it would look best as a part of clothes of laconic colors.

    This summer you will see a lot of garments with floral print both on the stores shelves and worn. You think, it’s too bright for you? Hey, don’t be so modest, it does look stylish, if you wear clothes with floral prints correctly.
    Stefanel Garments
    Wear a flower printed dress with a bag and shoes without a floral print. Combine a one-color dress and a bag (or another accessory) with floral print.
      Now you know, what to do with bright colors and various kinds of print. Don’t be afraid of clothes with brave prints or variegated clothes. They are extremely trendy this spring-summer season.

          Fashion Tips: Statment Necklace

          http://www.parentsphere.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/kjl-statement-necklace.jpg
          Statement necklaces are also a signature Michelle Obama look, and I love this version from Fenton she wore a few months back. She also keeps the rest of her outfit low-key and lets the necklace do the talking.
          Here are a few solid tips on exactly how to wear a big necklace of your own:


          1. Start with a neutral background. The last thing you want when you're wearing a big piece of jewelry is to look overwhelmed by it, so pair it with a white blouse, white T-shirt, or a simple black sweater. Avoid prints until you're really sure you've mastered the whole mix-and-match thing.
          2. Go casual. One of the reasons Erin's look works so well is because she creates great contrast between the super-laidback outfit and the super-chic necklace. People will be even more drawn to your gorgeous bling if you let it stand out against a basic look.
          3. Keep the other jewelry to a minimum. Again, this is a statement necklace--so let it be heard! Other jewelry will only distract from the piece's impact, especially earrings, since they're so close to your face. If you must wear a pair, opt for a simple stud.
          4. When in doubt, rely on the LBD. The answer to so many important fashion questions is as simple as "Little Black Dress." And that's true in this case too--if you're not sure what to wear your big necklace with, know that you can't go wrong when pairing it with an LBD. Opaque black tights and simple black pumps complete the look.
