Curls Cascading

This is a beautiful style that can be created with relaxed or natural hair. The end result is an elegant cascade of curls that would work for a bride-to-be, bridesmaid, or for a young lady attending prom.

Wrapped Around Half Updo

How To Style :
  1. Use a flat iron or large curling iron to softly curl the ends of your hair.
  2. Starting at the crown, push up a small section of hair until it’s the size that you want and pin it in place. Pin a few more pieces like this all through the crown to create a nice shape.
  3. As you move down the sides, wrap the hair on the left over to the right, and vice versa, pinning each side wrapped across the other side. Take 2-3 sections for each side.

No Heat Beach Waves

There are loads of diferent types of these no heat tutorials for this beachy hair look, and the reason to that is that most people (including me) just love that messy hair. And if you don't, just remember - embrace it! It's an all time (or maybe I should've said immortal) hairstyle that goes with everything! It's playful and can give that 'wow' effect on your whole look. So, I had to do some serious searching to find the perfect tutorial that can do the trick - and i found it! It's an easy breezy tutorial posted by the amazing Aimee Song from Song of Style. All the credit goes to her and her amazing trick!

1. Part your slightly damp hair into two sections (right and left) and start twisting from the root to all the way to the end of your hair. Make sure you twist well!

2. Using a bobby pin, pin the end of your twisted hair to the crown of your head.

3. Twist the other side of your hair in the same direction (I normally twist outwards) and pin to the crown of your head like the first side.

4. Let your hair dry naturally overnight and in the morning, unpin the ends. Shake your head and pretend your in a shampoo commercial, and voila! You got waves! If you'd like to hold the waves, top off the look with a lightweight hairspray such as the Vida Sassoon Pro Series Flexible Hold Hairspray.

How to give yourself a Wavy Hair style

How to give yourself a Wavy Hair style
How to curl your hair :
  1. Always curl the hair away from your face.
  2. Wrap the hair around the curling iron {see in the last picture how to hold your arms and the curling iron}
  3. Hold for about 5-8 seconds.
  4. Don’t use hairspray until the end. Too much hairspray will make them fall out.
  5. It works better when you have layers cut in your hair. I have about collar bone length layers

    How To Style a Fishtail Braid

    How To Style a Fishtail Braid
    Steps :
    • Step 1 : Divide the top part of your hair into two sections.
    • Step 2 : Grab a 1/2 inch strand of hair from the left side and bring it to the right side. Pull tight. Next, grab the same thickness of hair from the right side and bring it to the left side, making sure to keep each side separate from one another. Pull tight. Do this without twisting hair under like a braid. This is simply moving one small section of hair to the opposite side.
    • Step 3 : Keep repeating these steps until you run out of hair.
    • Step 4 : Once your done, secure with an elastic and you can pull out a few strands and curl them or crimp them or whatever you feel like doing, just to give it a more relaxed look.

And since I'm feeling very excited, I thought that I should post something also very spring inspired - the Zooey Deschanel inspired hairstyle!  This tutorial I've found on Bobby Glam and I must say, all of their tutorials and posts are absoloutley amazing! All very nicely put together, I love it! I also have to say that the girl in the tutorial used a clip in fringe that you can buy in their shop here.



      For the full tutorial, here is the video! 
      It's a very classy look, prefect if you want to try something new! And while creating this hairstyle, don't panic if the moment you put you fringe in place it doesn't look good. 
      It just needs a little ajusment and practice. Soon I'll
      post a similar tutorial also incuding bangs, but created
      in a different way, so untill then, have fun creating this,
      fun, edgy but still very classy hairstyle!

      Happy Friday friends!

        Kristen Stewart at the KCAs 2013: The Messy Fishtail

        Hey everyone! I know it's been a long time since this year's KCA, and since all that time I've been admiring Kristen's whole look. From the cool playsuit to the amazing hair, I was blown. It just leaves an impression of youth and freedom combined with great fashion taste. Oh, and the purple smokey eyes, that the icing on the cake! I just loved it! Therefore I couldn't resist to post a great and easy hair tutorial that I've found here (click there to get more info on the products used) and plus, a makeup tutorial for her look!


        Hair magician ADIR ABERGEL hooked the 22-year-old up for the night by styling her long auburn tresses in quite possibly the coolest fishtail braid I’ve ever seen. Using the Fekkai products he created this, undone, fresh and simple to recreate hairstyle. So, here is the hair tutorial (just wait a few seconds and the video will appear itself).

        AND NOW, THE MAKEUP...


        Kristen posed for the KCA cameras giving them a smouldering ultra-violet stare courtesy of her smoky deep purple eyes. Chanel Celebrity Makeup Artist JILLIAN DEMPSEY was inspired by both her eye color and the shade of her outfit.

        Before starting, Jillian had to start with a clean palette.
        “I prepped her skin with CHANEL Hydra Beauty Sèrum followed by CHANEL Sublimage Essential Regenerating Fluid and then dabbed a little CHANEL Sublimage La Crème Yeux under her eyes.

        I used a combination of CHANEL Vitalumière Aqua Ultra-Light Skin Perfecting Sunscreen Makeup Broad Spectrum SPF 15 on Kristen’s face and neck and CHANEL Correcteur Perfection Long Lasting Concealer with soft focus on pigments to conceal and event out her complexion.

        On the apples of her cheeks, I lightly dusted CHANEL Powder Blush in Rose Initial. I then did a series of highlights on her upper cheekbones and bridge of her nose with CHANEL Exclusive Creation Poudre Signèe De Chanel Illuminating Powder.”

        Now, for the eyes!
        “The eyes were the cornerstone of this look. I chose CHANEL LES 4 OMBRES Quadra Eyeshadow in Vanitès and relied on the deep purple shade to add depth to Kristen’s eyes. I blended and layered metallic accents on her lids to intensify the purple shades using CHANEL Illusion D’Ombre Long Wear Luminous Eyeshadow in Mirifique. To continue the purple iridescence theme, I traced underneath her lower lashes with CHANEL Precision Eye Definer in Violet Smoke.

        I also used CHANEL Stylo Yeux Waterproof Long Lasting Eyeliner in Black Shimmer on her upper lash line for extra definition.
        I curled the lashes and added two coats of Le Volume de Chanel Mascara in Noir. I added a few individual lashes to finish.”

        And for the perfectly pale pout?
        Jillian used CHANEL Rouge Coco Shine Hydrating Sheer Lipshine in Candeur on her lips “for a natural, peachy nude hue.”

        The Deep Side Part Wavy Hairstyle

        The Deep Side Part Wavy Hairstyle
        How To :
        - Apply a smoothing serum to your hair and grab your blow dryer. Make sure every bit of moisture is out of your hair—this will ensure a longer hold for the curls.
        - Part your hair on the opposite side of where you want the final deep side part to be placed: you’ll get much better volume this way. With a 1.5” curling iron start to curl your hair section by section.
        - Keep curling, section by section, and apply hair spray as you go to ensure hold.
        - Once completely curled, determine where you want to place the deep side part and flip your hair over. Lightly tease a section of hair at your crown for added volume.
        - Take a section of hair from the parted side and separate it into two pieces. Twist the pieces together, adding bits of hair—as though you were French braiding—as you move towards the nape of your neck.
        - Pin the twist at the nape of your neck and use your fingers to comb through the curls, breaking apart the structure. Once your hair is wavy to your liking, add a final spray of hairspray and get ready to enjoy your night!
